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. Your money buys less. Sometimes people【C4】______inflation as a time when "a dollar is not worth a dollar any more."
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. The【C13】______of living goes up, too. People who work must have even more money to keep up their standard of living. Just buying the things they need costs more. When incomes do not keep【C14】______with rising prices, the standard of living goes down. People may be earning the same amount of money, but they are not living as well【C15】______they are not able to buy as many goods and services.

选项
A、spending
B、demanding
C、consuming
D、saving
答案
A
解析
语义衔接题。从空后的定语从句that causes rapid rises in prices可知,本空所填词表示引起价格快速上涨的原因。价格上涨主要是人们花费上涨造成的,故答案为[A]spending。[B]demanding只是一种需求,还停留在愿望阶段,没有进入消费的实质行动阶段,而价格不可能在人们只是想买东西的时候就已经上涨了;[C]consuming“消费”指的是人们在有了需求并花了钱买到产品或服务之后开始享用的阶段;[D]saving“储蓄,存款”,与上下文语义不符。本空所填词是第二段提到的spending的原词复现。
