A、less
B、fewer
C、excessive
D、short
【正确答案】:C
【名师解析】:在题目中,"surplus"一词意味着“过剩的”,"flood"在这里用作比喻,表示大量或过量。因此,"flood of surplus produce"指的是市场上有大量的过剩产品。选项C "excessive" 意为“过多的”,与题目中的"surplus"和"flood"相匹配,表示产品供应超过了需求,导致价格下降。其他选项A "less"(较少的)、B "fewer"(更少的,通常用于可数名词)和D "short"(不足的)都不符合题意,因为它们没有表达出产品过剩导致价格下降的情况。因此,正确答案是C "excessive"。
