单选题 Chinese officials and scholars argued that the United States abuses its monetary freedom and passes on the costs to the rest of the world in the form of currency______and financial instability.
【正确答案】 C
【答案解析】解析：本题考查名词辨析。appropriation意为“挪用；占用；盗用；拨款”。deflation意为“通货紧缩”。depreciation意为“贬值”。deposition意为“沉积(物)，沉淀(物)；淤积(物)；罢免”。根据空后的and和financial instability(金融动荡)可知，本空所填词应与6nancial instability含义相近，结合四个选项及空前的currency(货币)判断，只有“货币贬值”符合语义，故选[C]项。
