【C5】
选项 A、remarkably
B、essentially
C、specially
D、particularly
答案D
解析 本空格前后的句子含义是汽车正在失去对人们的吸引力，特别是针对年轻人的群体，因为这个群体更热衷于购买最新型的电子设备。在获取了这个逻辑思路之后，就要区别四个选项的含义了： [A]remarkably(明显地)， [B]essentially(本质上地)， [C]specially(专门地，特意地)， [D]particularly(特别地)。选项[C]是强干扰项。particularly往往着重说明与同类事物不同的个别事物；而specially多表示“专门地”“为特别目的地”，如“不寻常”“过分”等，可与especially通用。例如：I made chocolate cake specially for you．(我特地为你做了巧克力蛋糕。)本题的句意显然是所有年龄段的人相比较，而年轻人在这方面尤为突出。故答案为[D]。
