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. "

D、marks
答案
A
解析
通过分析句子结构可知,空格处所填词作point to的宾语,而空格后面是一个完整的句子,根据句法可知,该句子只能是空格处所填词的定语从句或同位语从句。再看句意,空格前面的部分也就是句子的主语为“这种趋势以及一些最近显示房价稳定和上升的住房报道”。空格后面的句子意为“房屋市场正在开始______脚跟”,根据空格前后的逻辑关系可知,“趋势和报道”应该是表明了一种迹象,而不是指数或消息、标志,所以[A]为正确答案。[B] index用法举例:Do you know the price index in the city?你知道这个城市的物价指数吗?[C] news用法举例:I want to hear all your news.我想听听你的新鲜事。[D] marks用法举例:The route has been marked so that it is easy to follow.这条路线已标有记号,很容易跟着走。
