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.
【C10】

C、on account of
D、on the advice of
答案
B
解析
词汇题。固定搭配词组的词义辨析。前句讲了代理人代客户买卖,这句句首词thus(如此,这样)引出更为具体的买卖代理情况(代购肉类),也就是举例说明,因此,含义应相承接,选on behalf of“代表某人”,如:My husband could not be here tonight.but I want to thank you on his behalf.我丈夫今晚因故不能前来,我代表他向你们致谢。on the advice of“在某人的建议下”,如选此答案,与前面和此句后半部的acting on instructions(按照指示行事)一有含义上的冲突,因为建议是可采纳或不采纳的,二是本句后半部又出现了on instructions,二者不能同时使用,否则将出现含义不清。On the occasion of“在……之际”。on account of“因为,由于”,如:We stopped fighting on account of the baby.因为孩子,我们停止了争吵。
