Over half the world’s people now live in cities. The latest"Global Report on Human Settlements" says a significant change took place last year. The report【B1】______this week from U.N. Habitat, a United Nations agency.
A century ago, 【B2】______than five percent of all people lived in cities. 【B3】______ the middle of this century it could be seventy percent, or【B4】______six and a half billion people.

选项
A、pulled
B、driven
C、drawn
D、pressed
答案
B
解析
考查动词辨析。pull,drive,draw都有“拉,拽”的意思,press意为“挤,推,施加压力”。这四个词中只有driven表示“推动,驱动”,而driven by意为“由…驱动;由…引起”。结合该句意思:“由社会分化和贫富差距引起的日益严重的不平等,最终可能导致暴力和犯罪”可知,只有driven符合句意,故选B。
