D是不对的。主语是market，单数，所以remain要加s的。

Hannah

You are right! The subject is market here.

But as I remembered, like can not be used when we give examples. So, which one is the key?

soundsgood

why not choose C?

Hannah

Thanks! So it means the key is wrong! After so many mistakes, I can not believe myself.

commodity是日用品的意思，remains在这里做名词，despite做动词。也有人赞成E，但个人以为and后面应该加个介词of，remains做动词，不能加s啊
