* I can hardly buy a new car the high price of cars in Egypt A. on account of
B. supposing
C. whereas
D. in case

A. on account of

Explanation:

Considering the structure and form of the sentence given, we can easily deduce that the speaker couldn't afford to buy a car. And this is because of the high prices of cars in Egypt.

Now, as the sentence is a cause and effect form of a sentence, the given options except option A are unrelated to be used. But on the other hand, the phrase "on account of" is the same as saying "because of" which presents a reason for why the car couldn't be bought. The other options do not present this same function.

So, the correct sentence will be

"I can hardly buy a new car on account of the high price of cars in Egypt".

serve the people! ,” smoothly translated by julia lovell, offers an initial sample of yan lianke’s writing to an english-speaking audience. a bluntly drawn, mildly erotic fable, it teases mao zedong by poking fun at a true believer who obeys the chairman’s precepts too literally. to a western sensibility, the broad strokes of yan lianke’s humor would seem to pose little risk of inciting rebellion, whether of the flesh or of the body politic. but then, part of the book’s attraction is that it doesn’t have a western sensibility. it lets the reader see — or rather, intuit — what jokes chinese officials don’t consider funny, and how very little it takes for a writer to be branded an incendiary in 21st-century china, more than three decades after the death of mao, a decade after the death of deng xiaoping and seven years since china entered the world trade organization, a move that would seem to signal a willingness (however wary) to mingle with the rest of the world.
