问题 In previous times, when fresh meat was in short________, pigeons were kept by many households as a source of food.

选项 A、store
B、provision
C、reserve
D、supply

答案D

解析 本题考查介词短语。根据pigeons(鸽子)和a source of food(一种食物)可知,人们将鸽子作为一种食物,即其它肉类不足。由此可知,空格处所填词应表示“缺乏,不足”的含义。选项中,in supply意为“供应”,in short supply意为“供应短缺”,符合语义,故D项为答案。in store意为“准备着,将要发生”;provision意为“供应,准备”,常与for搭配;in reserve意为“留出备用的”。
