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.

A、confined
B、engaged
C、implicated
D、settled

本题考查动词短语+句内语义。空格处填入的动词与in连用,说明汽车制造商……“军备竞赛”中,鼓吹他们产品的新特色。只有engaged代入,指“参与军备竞赛”,说明汽车制造商为了竞争客户而竞相鼓吹新特色的做法,为正确项。注意settle in为不及物的用法,若接宾语需使用settle sb into sth。
