【C7】
选项 A、provide
B、offering
C、granted
D、providing
答案D
解析 词汇题。介词的固定搭配。根据现在分词和过去分词做状语的特点，分词的逻辑主语必须与主句主语一致，空格动词的逻辑主语应为urban planners，其与主语的关系应为主动，因此，过去分词provided和granted与逻辑主语的关系为被动，与句意不符，语法上出错，不能选。provide和offer均有“提供”之意，但offer用法为offer sb．sth．或offer sth．to sb．；而provide用法则为provide sth．(for sb．)或provide sb．with sth．。由此可见，providing用法与本题一致，为正确选项。
