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、watched
B、saw
C、cared
D、overlooked
答案
B
解析
空格所在句是介绍四个大城市房价的下跌,而后面也没有继续展开,因此这里只是陈述事实,而并没有其他意思,因此所填动词不应该引入其他意义。watch和see都有“看到”的意思,watch强调注视、集中注意力看.而see则有“目睹;经历”之意,用在此处更为合适。care和overlook都不符合。[A] watched用法举例:We watched the departure of the train from the station.我们看着火车驶离车站。[C] cared用法举例:He failed the examination but he didn’t seem to care.他考试不及格却似乎并不在乎.[D] overlooked用法举例:My calculation was wrong because I overlooked one tiny point.由于我忽略了一个细微之处,我的计算错了。
