(一) 节选出第二空所在部分
1. Prices for vintage prints sodrastically (ii) ______in the 1990sthatone of these photographs might fetch a hundred timesas much as a nonvintage print of the same image.
2. Blank2中应填入一个动词，表示VP的价格在1990年代的变动，由于没有反义关联元素，且只有so… that… 结构存在，故分句之间是同一关系，且没有否定词，因此对应的单词之间是同义关系。
3. 前半句说到价格的增长，that引导的后半句中对于价格增长的描述只有fetch a hundred times，因而VP的价格在1990年代的10年间较NonVP来说增长了上百倍，因此这应该是一种短时间且迅速的增长。
4. 选择与自主判读已知的词汇填空：
[1]. ballooned：(迅速扩大)to swell or puff out : EXPAND
[2]. weakened：(削弱)to make weak : lessen the strength of
[3]. varied：(变化)DEVIATE, DEPART

1. Blank3中应该填入一个名词或名词性结构，作为人们获利的依据。
2. 能够获利的根本在与成本与销售价格之间的价格差，因而人们所利用的是上百倍的差价，所以在blank3中填入“差距”一词的同义词。
3. 选择与自主判读已知的词汇填空：
[1]. discrepancy：(差异)the quality or state of being at variance
[2]. ambiguity：(歧义)the quality or state of being ambiguous especially in meaning
