III.Cloze: Choose the most appropriate word or phrase for each blank in the following passages. 20% (A) Rotten apples outsell the fresh ones in Kabul, Afghanistan's capital, but such only begins to describe the poverty here, for even bad apples—sold 21 a penny a pound—are luxuries in a city so overcome by tragedy and want.

價格與比率的慣用法
在英文表達中，當我們要說明一件物品的售價、比率或速度時，最標準的介系詞就是 at。句子中的 "sold at a penny a pound" 意指「以每磅一便士的價格出售」。這是一個非常固定且道地的搭配方式，我們常用 at 來標定一個「精確的點」，例如 "at a high price"（以高價）或 "at full speed"（以全速），這些都是 at 在空間概念之外的延伸用法。
