参考答案
D
答案解析
D。题目意为：为什么有些外国人在香港找不 到住处。此题的关键是在关键词的理解上。第 三段中的expats是外国佬的意思。“But many flats have been pulled off the market in anticipation of even higher prices，．．．a broker whose business finding homes for expats has been hit by a sudden paucity of supply．”后半句的意 思是，为外籍人士寻找房子公司受到了冲击。 前半句交代了原凶，many flats have been puHed off the market，许多公寓延期上市。
