C．in need

D．in stock

Answer 1

　D

　　本题译文: 这家商店没有红鞋供应，所以玛丽买了一双宗色的鞋.in stock(="having" sth. ready to sell or use；in present supply) 有现货供应: The shop has suger in stock.(这个商店有白糖供应.) in demand(=needed；wanted；) 有需求: The book about dogs was much in demand in the library.(="Many" people wanted to read the book about dogs that in the library.) in need(="in" poverty，in trouble)在贫困中，在困难中: A friend in need is a friend indeed。(A friend who helps when one is in trouble is areal friend.) in store(="saved" up in case of need； ready for use for some purpose) 储备待用:于If the electricity goes off，we have candles in the closet.(="We" have candles put away if we need them for light.)(如果电灯灭了，我们壁橱里还备有蜡烛.)
　　[注意] in stock 强调商店备有现货以供出售，而 in store 则指储备物品以供急需使用。此外 in store 还可以表示“等待着，必将发生”。例如: I have a surprise in store for you.(我有一个你料想不到的消息要告诉你。)
