选项
A、especially
B、particularly
C、approximately
D、probably
答案
D
解析
语义衔接题。本句大意为:如果一名经济学家被问及收入增加、收入稳定和收入减少这三种人中,哪种人借钱最多,他可能回答是那些收入减少者。probably意为"可能,大概",表示一种比较确定的猜测,用在本句中符合句意。especially意为"尤其,特别地",particularly意为"特别,尤其",句中或句子上下文没有表示需要特别指明或强调某一方面的语境,因此这两个词放入句中不恰当;approximately意为"大约",表示大概基本正确或精确的意思,文中表示的不是答案精确与否,只是表示存在某种可能性,故排除。
