【C5】

选项 A、building
B、setting
C、founding
D、erecting

答案B

解析 本题考核的知识点是:对应成分分析——and对应+词义辨析。reducing budget deficits to 4 percent of the second phase by 2003在内容上应该和creating a Convergence Council to help macroeconomic policies;and up a common central bank具有相同的性质。B选项set up意为“建立,设置”,多为组织机构,可与句中的central bank连用。A选项build up意为“建造,逐渐获得”,如:to build up your vocabulary丰富你的词汇;C选项found意为“建立,组建”,属及物动词,不能与up连用;D选项erect意为“建立,树立”,所建东西带有一定高度,不能与up连用, 如:They plan to erect an apartment house on that property.他们准备在那块地产上建造一座公寓楼。
