Blank (i)                Blank (ii)
A. spread               D. spur to
B. commenced          E. drag on
C. slowed              F. panacea for

选项

答案C,E

解析 空格(i):
-方程等号:because,同义重复。
- 强词和对应:由于中国的需求空格(i)而减缓,根据because取同,应填入slacken的同义词。spread扩散,commence开始,slow减缓,答案选C。
空格(ii):
- 方程等号:thus,同义重复。
- 强词和对应:高油价本身也开始作为一个短期的空格(ii)全球经济,因此进一步抑制了油的需求。将dampening指向空格(ii),根据thus取同,所以空格(ii)应填入一个负向词。spur to刺激,drag on拖累,panacea for万灵药。答案选E。
