Farmers' markets are gaining in _____. (A) parity (B) popularity (C) personality (D) purity

正確答案為 B。本題測驗單字字義與固定搭配詞。「gain in popularity」為常見片語，意指「越來越受歡迎」，符合農夫市集因食安問題而興起的語境。 (A) 【字義辨析】parity (名詞) 意為「同等、平價、相等」。放入句中語意不通，農夫市集不會「獲得同等」。 (B) 【搭配詞】popularity (名詞) 意為「普及、受歡迎」。「gain in popularity」為固定搭配用法，表示「越來越受歡迎」，完美契合短文描述有機農業與農夫市集崛起的趨勢。
