问题     One in six. Believe it or not, that’s the number of Americans who struggle with hunger. To make tomorrow a little better, Feeding America, the nation’s largest【C6】________hunger relief organization, has chosen September as Hunger Action Month. As part of its 30 Ways in 30 Days program , it’s asking【C7】________across the country to help the more than 200 food banks and 61, 000 agencies in its network provide low income individuals and families with the fuel they need to【C8】________
    It’s the kind of work that’s done every day at St. Andrew’s Episcopal Church in San Antonio. People who【C9】________at its front door on the first and third Thursdays of each month aren’t looking for God—they’re there for something to eat. St. Andrew’s runs a food pantry (食品室) that【C10】________the city and several of the【C11】________towns. Janet Drane is its manager.
    In the wake of the【C12】________, the number of families in need of food assistance began to grow. It is【C13】________that 49 million Americans are unsure of where they will find their next meal. What’s most surprising is that 36% of them live in【C14】________where at least one adult is working. " It used to be that one job was all you needed, " says St. Andrew’s Drane. "The people we see now have three or four part-time jobs and they’re still right on the edge【C15】________."
    [A] accumulate   [B] circling
    [C] communities  [D] competition
    [E] domestic     [F] financially
    [G] formally     [H] gather
    [I] households   [J] recession
    [K] reported     [L] reviewed

【C12】
选项
答案J
解析 从句子结构分析, 介词of后应用名词或动名词作其宾语, 故此处需填入名词作短语的中心词。词组in the wake of意为“随着……的到来”, 即上下句意为“随着________的到来, 需要食品援助的家庭数量开始增加”, 由此可推断应该是经济萧条造成的, 因此选recession(经济萧条不景气)语义相符。
