Compared with other modes of transport, train technology might seem to be progressing as slowly as a suburban commuter service rattling its way from one station to another. Automotive technology,【C1】______, changes constantly: in the past decade satellite-navigation systems, hybrid power trains, proximity sensors and other innovations have【C2】______Each time you buy a new car, you will【C3】______a host of new features. Progress is【C4】______in aircraft, too, with【C5】______in in-flight entertainment and communication, fancy seats that turn into beds, and quieter and more efficient engines. Trains,【C6】______, appear to have changed a lot less.
This【C7】______is not entirely fair.【C8】______, people buy their own cars, so they pay more attention to automotive innovation. Carmakers are【C9】______in a constant arms race, trumpeting new features as a way to【C10】______their products. Nobody buys their own trains. Similarly, air passengers have a choice of【C11】______airlines and are far more likely to be aware of the【C12】______of rival fleets than they are of different types of train.【C13】______, trains have longer lives, so technology takes longer to become【C14】______The planning horizon for one rail project【C15】______to 2050.
【C16】______there is no【C17】______of new ideas, and they are steadily making their way out onto the rails. Better technologies are【C18】______everything from improved traction, braking and route-planning to sleek levitating trains(流线型悬浮列车)designed to glide on air at an astonishing 500kph. Energy-efficiency and safety are up, and derailments are down. There are schemes to【C19】______electrical energy from braking trains into local power grids, and even more【C20】______plans for "moving platforms" that dock with high-speed trains.
【C18】
选项
A、delivering
B、transforming
C、challenging
D、imposing
答案
A
解析
本题考查动词熟词僻义+句内语义。空格处填入句子的谓语动词,主语为“更好的技术”,宾语为多种火车革新。因为本段是介绍火车技术的发展,所以本句说明的应是:更好的技术带来了各项火车的创新。deliver可指to do or providethe things you are expected to,because you are responsible for them or they are part of your job,代入文中,指“更好的技术提供了更好的牵引、制动、路线规划,甚至带来了悬浮列车”,符合文意,为正确项。注意transform代入,与后面的improved traction…冲突,应排除。
