Triple-digit oil prices have【C4】______the economic and political map of the world, 【C5】______some old notions of power. Oil-rich nations are enjoying historic gains and opportunities, 【C6】______major importers — including China and India, home to a third of the world’s population —【C7】______rising economic and social costs.
Managing this new order is fast becoming a central【C8】______of global politics. Countries that need oil are clawing at each other to【C9】______scarce supplies, and are willing to deal with any government, 【C10】______how unpleasant, to do it.
In many poor nations with oil, the profits are being, lost to corruption, 【C11】______these countries of their best hope for development. And oil is fueling enormous investment funds run by foreign governments, 【C12】______some in the west see as a new threat.

选项
A、asking
B、requesting
C、calling
D、demanding
答案
C
解析
语义衔接题。由文意可知,奥巴马和麦凯恩当时只是在竞选总统,而并没有当选总统,所以也就没有权利要求增收燃油税,只能“号召。呼吁”。表示呼吁的短语只有call for,所以,本题答案为[C]calling.
