A market is commonly thought of as a place where commodities are bought and sold. Thus fruit and vegetables are sold wholesale at Covent Garden Market and meat is sold wholesale at Smithfield Market. But there are markets for things【C1】______commodities, in the usual【C2】______. There are【C3】______estate markets, foreign exchange markets, labour markets, short-term capital markets, and so on; there may be a market for anything that has a price. And there may be no particular place to which dealings are【C4】______. Buyers and sellers may be【C5】______over the whole world and instead of actually meeting together in a market-place they may deal with one another【C6】______telephone, telegram, cable or letter.【C7】______dealings are【C8】______to a particular place, the dealers may consist wholly or in part of agents【C9】______instructions from clients far away. Thus agents buy meat at Smithfield【C10】______retail butchers all over England; and【C11】______on the London Stock Exchange buy and sell【C12】______on instructions from clients all over the world. We must therefore define a market as any area over which buyers and sellers are in such close touch with one another, either directly or through【C13】______,【C14】______the prices【C15】______in one part of the market affect the prices paid in other parts.
Modern means of communication are so rapid that a buyer can discover【C16】______by asking, and can accept it if he wishes,【C17】______he may be thousands of miles away. Thus the market for anything is,【C18】______, the whole world. But in fact things have, normally, only a local or national market.
This may be because nearly the whole demand is【C19】______in one locality. These special local demands,【C20】______, are of quite minor importance. The main reason why many things have not a world market is that they are costly or difficult to transport.
【C20】
选项
A、furthermore
B、therefore
C、however
D、then
答案
C
解析
篇章题。篇章结构题。前句讲了市场区域性的特点,并分析原因为“所有需求集中于一个地区”,而此旬却说这个原因只是of minor importance(无足轻重的),紧接着又指出导致这一现象的重要原因与此相对,因此,此处为转折关系。however表转折,意为“尽管;然而;还是”,如:The travel was expensive;however,it was worth it.这次旅行花销很大,但很值。文章此句含义为“却只是一个无足轻重的原因”,因此however符合题意,为正确答案。furthermore“此外,而且”,表示“在本身基础上程度更进一步的,更多的”,如:further investigation进一步的调查/get further information得到更详尽的消息。therefore“因此,所以”,表结果,如:He was not informed of the meeting,and therefore could not come.没人通知他开会,所以他没来。then“然后”,表承接,如:In Beijing we had a meeting,and then visited some places of historical interests.在北京我们开了会,然后参观了一些名胜古迹。可见,其余三选项都不符题意。
