He can continue to support himself and his family 【B2】 he produces a surplus. He must use this surplus in three ways: as seed for sowing, as an insurance 【B3】 the unpredictable effects of bad weather and as a commodity which he must sell in order to 【B4】 old agricultural implements and obtain chemical fertilizers to 【B5】 the soil. He may also need money to construct irrigation 【B6】 and improve his farm in other ways. If no surplus is available, a farmer cannot be 【B7】 . He must either sell some of his property or 【B8】 extra funds in the form of loans. Naturally he will try to borrow money at a low 【B9】 of interest, but loans of this kind are not 【B10】 obtainable.

选项 A、other than
B、as well as
C、instead of
D、more than

答案C

解析 本题考查连接手段的使用。other意为"不同于;除了",常用于否定句中as意为"(除之外)又;不但,且",用来连接意义一致的句子成分;instead of意为"代替,而不";more than的意思是"超过;很,十分"。根据题意,空格处应填入能够体现前后词项意义截然相反的连接手段,因此instead of为正确答案。
