2012二轮精品提分必练

many rushed to buy  as much iodized salt as possible because of the rumor that iodized salt could help prevent radiation poisoning spreading from japan’s fukushima daiichi power plant. consumers also worried that the nuclear plumes might spread to china by air and sea, polluting food sources, including salt taken from the sea.

the wave of panic buying spread quickly across the country, driving up salt prices by five to ten fold in some cities.

even regions rich in salt production, like jiangxi province, faced sudden shortages.

the government took measures to guarantee enough supply and to stabilize(稳定)the market. it also dismissed the nuclear rumors, saying the nuclear fallout was unlikely to reach the country, and that salt did not help to prevent radiation poisoning.

local authorities have stepped in to stabilize the market, too. as well, state­owned salt companies have been urged to increase their supply.

facing expanding market demand, distribution centers have taken extra measures to ensure they are well­prepared.

wang yun, the general manager of beijing salt industry corporation, said, “our storage reserves can guarantee a two­month supply for the beijing market.”

(　　)1.people made panic purchases of salt for the reasons except________.

a．salt might protect them from potential nuclear radiation

b．nuclear radiation might pollute food sources

c．nuclear radiation might pollute salt taken from the sea
