After the United States government reported______consumer demands for gasoline, market oil prices closed at $72 a barrel.
A．weaken
B．weakest
C．weakness
D．weakening
参考答案
正确答案：D
解析：查看四个选项我们可以看出动词weaken不能修饰名词consumer demand。因为没有定冠词the，所以最高级weakest也不能用。再从上下文的含义来看，横线上应该填人的词的意思是“弱化的，减少的”，所以动词weaken的现在分词weakening是正确答案。
