A market is commonly thought of as a place where commodities are bought and sold. Thus fruit and vegetables are sold wholesale at Covent Garden Market and meat is sold wholesale at Smithfield Market. But there are markets for things【C1】______commodities, in the usual【C2】______. There are【C3】______estate markets, foreign exchange markets, labour markets, short-term capital markets, and so on; there may be a market for anything that has a price. And there may be no particular place to which dealings are【C4】______. Buyers and sellers may be【C5】______over the whole world and instead of actually meeting together in a market-place they may deal with one another【C6】______telephone, telegram, cable or letter.【C7】______dealings are【C8】______to a particular place, the dealers may consist wholly or in part of agents【C9】______instructions from clients far away. Thus agents buy meat at Smithfield【C10】______retail butchers all over England; and【C11】______on the London Stock Exchange buy and sell【C12】______on instructions from clients all over the world. We must therefore define a market as any area over which buyers and sellers are in such close touch with one another, either directly or through【C13】______,【C14】______the prices【C15】______in one part of the market affect the prices paid in other parts.
Modern means of communication are so rapid that a buyer can discover【C16】______by asking, and can accept it if he wishes,【C17】______he may be thousands of miles away. Thus the market for anything is,【C18】______, the whole world. But in fact things have, normally, only a local or national market.
This may be because nearly the whole demand is【C19】______in one locality. These special local demands,【C20】______, are of quite minor importance. The main reason why many things have not a world market is that they are costly or difficult to transport.
【C5】

D、dispelled
答案
A
解析
词汇题。词义辨析题。句中and起并列连接作用,此前此后说的是同一情况,后面部分其实就是补充说明。既然后面部分讲到“不聚集在一起”,“千里之外的客户”,“通过电话交易”,那么买卖双方一定“分散”于世界各地。scatter“散开,分散”,指散开的动作或散开的状态,通常指分散很广,如:scatter seeds on the field把种子撒播在地里。separate也为“分散,把……分隔开”之意,但主含“使保持相隔,使不在一起”之意,如:The Pyrenees separate France and Spain.比利牛斯山脉将法国和西班牙分隔开。spread“展开,铺开”,如:We spread the bicycle parts out on the floor.我们将自行车零件摊开在地板上。dispel“驱散,赶走”,暗示通过分散来驱散或赶走,如:dispel dark clouds驱散乌云/dispel all doubts消除一切疑虑。由此可见,选项scatter符合题意,为正确答案。
