Business and government leaders consider the inflation rate to be an important indicator. Inflation is a period of increased【C1】______that causes rapid rises in prices. When your money buys fewer goods so that you get【C2】______for the same amount of money as before, inflation is the problem. There is a general rise【C3】______the price of goods and services.

Inflation is a problem for all consumers. People who live on a【C5】______income are hurt the【C6】______. Retired people, for instance, cannot【C7】______on an increase in income as prices rise. Elderly people face serious problems in【C8】______their incomes to meet their needs in【C9】______of inflation. Retirement income【C10】______any fixed income usually does not rise as fast as prices. Many retired people must cut their spending to【C11】______up with rising prices. In many cases they must stop buying some necessary items, such as food and clothing.【C12】______for working people whose incomes are going up, inflation can be a problem.

选项
A、fixed
B、eternal
C、permanent
D、variable
答案
A
解析
语义衔接题。下面举退休人员的例子对空所在句进行解释说明,其中提到Retired people…cannot…an increase in income as prices rise(当价格上涨时,退休人员…不能…工资增加),即退休人员的工资是相对固定的,由此可知,此处是说工资固定的人,故答案为[A]fixed“固定的”。第二段第五句提到的any fixed income对本题有提示作用。[B]eternal“永恒的:永久的”及[C]permanent“永久(性)的,固定的”不能用来修饰income;[D]variable“易变的:可变的”与上下文语义相反,故排除。
