问题 During the widespread fuel shortage, the price of gasoline was so (i)______ that suppliers were generally thought to be (ii)______ the consumer.
选项 A、reactive…shielding
B、stable…blackmailing
C、depressed…cheating
D、prohibitive…placating
E、excessive…gouging
答案E
解析 空格(i)：
- 方程等号：逗号说明前后句意同义重复。
- 强词和对应：前文提到燃料普遍不足，空格(i)和shortage构成同义重复，体现燃料不足对价格带来的影响，而供给不足价格会“升高”。 reactive有反应的，stable稳定的，depresseol萧条的，prohibitive(价格)过高的，excessive过高的。 选项A、D和E合适。
空格(ii)：
- 方程等号：so…that…因为太…所以…，前后句意同义重复。
- 强词和对应：空格(ii)和空格(i)构成同义重复，体现供应商对消费者因为“高价”而产生的影响。 shield保护(错)，blackmail敲诈(对)，cheat欺骗(错)，placate安慰(错)，gouge敲诈(对)。综合空格(i)，答案选E。
