题目
The actively July contract for soybeans rose 20 cents to settle at $14.85 a bushel.
The U.S. government's weekly prediction for soybean exports was higher than traders expected, said Mike Zulo. President of a consulting company in Atchison, Kansas.
Supplies for beans have been extraordinarily tight as China's demand for soymeal continues to increase even as U.S. production stays relatively steady, he said. Soybean prices have risen about 15 percent this year.
“That U.S.D.A. number caused the trade to refocus on just how razor-thin supplies are heading in to next fall's harvest.” Zulo said.
What can be inferred from the passage about next fall’s soybean harvest?
B.It will rise 15 percent.
C.It’s still uncertain.
D.It will be razor-thin.

第4题：
The soybean prices ended higher this Monday as traders expect supplies to remain tight
The actively traded July contract for soybeans rose 20 cents to settle at $14.85 a bushel.
The U.S government’s weekly prediction for soybean exports was higher than traders expected, said Mike Zulo, president of a consulting company in Atchison Kansas
Supplies for beans have been extraordinarily tight as China’s demand for soybean continues to increase even as U.S production stays relatively steady he said Soybean prices have risen 15 percent this year
“That U.S.D.A. number caused the trade to refocus on just how razor-thin supplies are heading in to next fall’s harvest” Zulo said
Why did the prices of soybean rise according to the passage?A. Because the general production of soybean stayed steady
B. Because the supplies were expected to keep tight
C. Because China’s demand for soybean increased
D. Because the trade of soybean was quite active答案：C解析：细节题。根据文段第三段第一句“Supplies for beans have been extraordinarily tight as China’s demand for soymeal continues to increase”我们可以知道在美国整体产量相对稳定的状态下，中国对大豆的需求增加。因此导致价格上升。A项就是产量保持稳定需求上升，供不应求，价格才涨的。B项文段中只是提到大豆的出口会增加，但没有提到会紧缩。D文段当中未提及。因此答案选C。 -

What can be inferred from the passage about next fall’s soybean harvest?A. It’s not worth noticing
B. It will rise 15 percent
C. It’s still uncertain
D. It will be razor-thin答案：D解析：推断题。根据文段最后一段“That U.S.D.A. number caused the trade to refocus on just how razor-thin supplies are heading in to next fall’s harvest”我们可以知道下一个丰收季就会关注更加紧张的供应。A项错误，文段最后一句提到refocus。B项提到的15percent是说今年大豆价格上涨了15%。文段说未来一定供应更加紧张，C项错误。因此答案选D。 -
