问题     During the early years of this century, wheat was seen as the very
lifeblood of Western Canada. People on city streets watched the yields
and the price of wheat in almost as much feeling as if they were growers.            【B1】_________
The marketing of wheat became an increasing favorite topic of conversation.          【B2】_________
    War set the stage for the most dramatic events in marketing the
western crop. For years, farmers mistrusted speculative grain selling
as carried on through the Winnipeg Grain Exchange. Wheat prices
were generally low in the autumn, so farmers could not wait for                      【B3】_________
market to improve. It had happened too often that they sold their wheat
soon shortly after harvest when farm debts were coming due,                          【B4】_________
just to see prices rising and speculators getting rich. On various occasions,        【B5】_________
producer groups asked firmer control, but the government had no wish to              【B6】_________
become involving, at least not until wartime when wheat prices threatened            【B7】_________
to run wild.
    Anxious to check inflation and rising life costs, the federal                    【B8】_________
government appointed a board of grain supervisors to deal with deliveries
from the crop of 1917 and 1918. Grain Exchange trading was suspended,
and farmers sold at prices fixed by the board. To handle with the crop of            【B9】_________
1919, the government appointed the first Canadian Wheat Board, with
total authority to buy, sell, and set prices.                                        【B10】_________
选项
答案 将in改成with。
解析 feeling用作可数名词时表示“情感”、“感情”、“心情”，如with mixed feelings表示“怀着矛盾的心情”，用作不可数名词时表示“激情”、“态度(尤其是那种缺乏理智的态度)”，例如play the piano With great feeling表示“满怀激情地弹奏钢琴”。in与 feeling的搭配是不成立的。
