第四部分 概括大意 (20分)
  给下面一篇文章的每一段概括大意。每一段的主题用一个或几个单词表示,空出的词已给出了第一个字母,请把其余字母补全。
  31. F abundance and Price Rising
  The long years of food shortage in this country have suddenly give
  way to apparent abundance. Stores and shops are choked with food. Rationing (定
  量供应) is virtually suspended (暂停), and overseas suppliers (供应商) have
  been asked to hold back deliveries. Yet, instead of joy, there is wide-spread
  uneasiness and confusion. Why do food prices keep on rising when there seems to
  be so much more food about? Is the abundance only temporary, or has it come to
  stay? Does it mean that we need to think less now about producing more food at
  home? No one knows what to expect.
  32. Rea
  The recent growth of export surpluses on the world food market has
  certainly been unexpectedly great, partly because a strange sequence of two
  successful grain harvests in North America is now being followed by a third.
  Most of Britain’s overseas suppliers of meat, too, are offering more this year
  and home production has also risen.
  33. E of Food Situation
  But the effect of all this on the food situation in this country has
  been made worse by a simultaneous rise in food prices, due chiefly to the
  gradual cutting down of government support for food. The shops are overstocked
  (存货过多) with food out only because there is more food available, but also
  because people, frightened by high prices, are buying less of it.
  34. Fa of World Prices
  Moreover, the rise in domestic prices has come at a time when world
  pries have begun to fall with the result that imported food, with the exception
  of grain, is often cheaper than the home-produced variety. And now grain
  prices, too, are falling. Consumers are beginning to ask why they should not be
  enabled to benefit form this trend.
  35. The Res of Farmers Fear
  The significance of these developments is not lost on farmers. The
  older generation have seen it all happen before. Despite the present price and
  market guarantees, farmers fear they are about to be squeezed between cheap
  food imports and a shrinking home market. Present production is running at 51
  per cent above pre-war levels, and the government has called for an expansion
  to 60 per cent by 1956. but repeated Ministerial (内阁的) advice is carrying
  little weight and the expansion programme is not working very well.
