    Electric scooters have arrived in masse in cities like Los Angeles, San Francisco and Washington, with companies competing to offer the dockless and【C1】________vehicles. Leading the pack is Mr. VanderZanden’s Bird, with【C2】________including Spin and LimeBike. The start-ups are buoyed with more than $250 million in venture capital and a firm belief that electric scooters are the future of【C3】________, at least for a few speedy blocks.
    The premise of the start-ups is simple: people can【C4】________the electric scooters for about a $1, plus 10 cents to 15 cents a minute to use, for so-called last-mile transportation. To recharge the scooters, the companies have "chargers," or people who roam the streets looking to【C5】________in the scooters at night, for which they get paid $5 to $20 per scooter.
    The problem is that cities have been【C6】________to discover that thousands of electric scooters have been dropped onto their sidewalks【C7】________overnight. Often, the companies ignored all the usual avenues of getting city approval to set up shop. And since the scooters are dockless, riders can just【C8】________one, go a few blocks and leave it wherever they want, causing a commotion (混乱) on sidewalks and scenes of scooters strewn across wheelchair ramps and in doorways.
    So officials in cities like San Francisco and Santa Monica, Calif., have been sending cease-and-desist notices and holding【C9】________meetings. Some even filed【C10】________against the scooter companies.
    They just appeared," said Mohammed Nuru, director of the San Francisco Public Works, which has been confiscating the scooters. "I don’t know who comes up with these ideas or where these people come from."
【C6】
选项
答案B
解析 空格前的have been提示这里应填入动词过去分词或者形容词。空格后to discover后面的内容是比较负面的：成千上万辆电动滑板车被扔到人行道上。shock意思是“使震惊”，那么shocked就是“震惊的”的意思. shocked填入符合语境，指城市震惊地发现很多电动滑板车乱放。
