Home prices slid in November, raising questions about whether the housing recovery is robust enough to maintain a sustained turnaround. From October to November, home prices fell 0.2% after【1】0.1% in October, according to a report Tuesday by Standard & Poor’s/Case-Shiller’s home price index.【2】five of the 20 metro areas【3】by the index saw price increases for the month.
On a(n)【4】basis, prices were 5.3% lower in November than in November 2008. Prices were the same as in late 2003. "What we’ve seen【5】the past couple of months is that the pace of【6】has fallen down," says Maureen Maitland of Standard & Poor’s. "Some markets have【7】Is that because we haven’t【8】the foreclosure (回赎权的取消) cycle? Because of unemployment? We’re not seeing the【9】we were seeing in the last summer months. "
Metro areas that have seen a retreat in home prices【10】Seattle, Charlotte, Las Vegas and Tampa. All four【11】gains they made in recent months【12】.【13】, for the 20-metro index, the annual rate of decline is improving. That【14】, with other recent housing reports that show prices【15】or accelerating, could point to【16】the housing market is starting to【17】its footing, some economists say. Existing home sale prices were $178 300 in December, which is 1.5% higher than December 2008, according to a report this week by the National Association of Realtors. That was the first year-over-year【18】in median price since August 2007.
"The most【19】thing we can say is not only the market is stabilizing, but we’ve seen that housing demand is strong," says Bernard Baumohl, with the Economic Outlook Group. "Housing probably will continue to climb upwards through the summer,【20】it could slip a little as the tax credit expires. "
选项
A、consist
B、conclude
C、include
D、enclose
答案
C
解析
空格所在句句意为:一些出现房价下跌现象的大城市______西雅图、夏洛特、拉斯维加斯和坦帕。通过分析句子结构可知,本句缺少谓语动词,该谓语动词后面需要直接跟宾语。纵览四个选项可以看出,从意义上和句法上都正确的选项是[C]。[A]是不及物动词,在表达“由……组成”时,一般用作consist of,用法举例:The committee consists of ten members.委员会由十人组成。[B]是针对include给出的形近词干扰项,用法举例:What can you conclude from these observations?你从这些观察中能得出什么结论?[D]的意思不符合句意,用法举例:Farmers often enclose their land with hedges.农夫们常用树篱将他们的地围起来。
