问题     SHOPPING for salad in supermarkets is too easy. A bag of ready-washed vegetables costs only $ 3 at Walmart, and takes no time to lift from the shelf. So a new breed of food lovers spends hours foraging(搜索|)for plants in city parks and【C1】______lots. Many wild American plants are edible but【C2】______in supermarkets. But not everyone recognises them. Enter the foraging group, who teach hipsters(时髦人群)how to pluck on the wild side.
    "Green Deane" Jordan charges $ 30 for a foraging tour in Orlando, Florida: demand【C3】______supply, he says. New foraging apps, websites and books are making it easier than ever to score free food. But this is only part of the story.
    Foraging fits the anti-corporate【C4】______of many hipsters. " People are【C5】______for something that’s real" , says Frank Grindrod, who teaches foraging in Massachusetts. Urban parks【C6】______offer more plant varieties than similarly sized wilderness areas. And city greenery holds more calories per acre than wildlands that are picked over by deer, says "Wildman" Steve Brill, who sells a 26-language "Wild Edibles" app and gives foraging tours in New York city parks.
    Wild food【C7】______better than you might expect, enthusiasts say. Roughly 18% of Americans forage at least once a year, up from 13% in 1999, says Maria Emery, a geographer at the U. S. Forest Service. For-ageSF, a San Francisco firm, serves $ 100 dinners with foraged【C8】______. Iso Rabins, the founder, had hoped to employ staff foragers but found that the praiseworthy【C9】______of folks willing to forage full-time did not include promptness in returning calls or【C10】______He now uses freelances instead.
A)attributes B)absent C)crushes D)defect
E)devoting F)exceeds G)faith H)ingredients
I)intentionally J)punctuality K)tastes L)typically
M)unavailable N)vacant O)yearning [br] 【C5】
选项
答案 O
解析 该空格后为介词for，前为主语people，系动词are，故该空应填入动词进行时态，纵观动词选项只有yearning能与for搭配，意为“渴望，向往”，故应选择O)yearning。
