A scientist who wants to predict the way in which consumers will spend their money must study consumer behavior. He must【C1】______ data both on the resources of consumers and on the motive that【C2】______encourage or discourage money spending.
If an economist were asked which of three groups borrow most—people with rising incomes, 【C3】______incomes,or decreasing incomes—he would probably answer, those with【C4】______ incomes. 【C5】______ the answer was: people with rising incomes. People with decreasing incomes were【C6】______and people with stable incomes borrowed the least. This shows us that traditional【C7】______ about earning and spending are not always【C8】______.
Another traditional assumption is that if people who have money expect prices to go up they will 【C9】______to buy. If they expect prices to go down,they will postpone buying. But research surveys have shown that this is not always【C10】______.
The expectations of price increases may not 【C11】______ buying. One typical attitude was expressed【C12】______the wife of a mechanic in a( n)【C13】______at a time of rising prices. " In a few months," she said, "we’ll have to pay more for meat and milk; well have less to spend on other things. "Her family had been planning to buy a new car but they postponed this【C14】______.
Furthermore,the rise in prices that has already taken place may be disliked and buyer’s 【C15】______may be produced. This is shown by the following【C16】______comment; "I just don’t pay these prices; they are too high. "
The investigations mentioned above were 【C17】______in America; condition most helpful to spending appears to be price stability. If prices have been stable and people consider that they are 【C18】______, they are likely to buy. Thus, it appears that the common business policy of 【C19】______stable prices is based on a correct understanding of consumer【C20】______.
【C19】
选项
A、maintaining
B、sustaining
C、retaining
D、keeping
答案
A
解析
动词辨析题。maintain,retain和sustain都有“保持,维持”的意思。但maintain强调维持已有的水平、标准,如maintain prices“保持价格稳定”,故[A]maintaining为正确答案。[C]retaining意为“保留”,强调保留原来的特色;[B]sustaining一般指“维持生命、体力、精神或决心”;[D]keeping不能与prices搭配,故均排除。
