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、recognition
B、recourse
C、recovery
D、relapse
答案
C
解析
空格所在句句意为:过去几个月来我们已经看出______的速度放缓。根据上文可知,房屋价格下降了,房市复苏了。再看下文,从Is that because we haven’t…?Because of…?(是因为我们没有……吗?还是因为……?)可以看出,Maitland在表达自己的困惑:虽然房屋价格下降,房市复苏了,但是近几个月来______的速度却下降了,是因为我们没有……吗?还是因为……?通过分析上下文的逻辑关系可知,此处应该填[C] recovery,意为“恢复”,引申为“复苏”。[A] recognition用法举例:My recognition of the face was immediate.我一下子就认出那张面孔了。[B] recourse用法举例:He tackled the difficult problem without recourse to any help.他不依靠任何人的帮助而独立解决了这一难题。[D]relapse用法举例:a risk of relapse旧病复发的危险。
