For most people Britain’s bouncing economy, now growing at its fastest for three years, is cause for cheer. Not,【C1】______for those who manage the country’s electricity power system. For them【C2】______growth means faster progress towards a critical situation. Ofgem, the energy regulator, has long【C3】______that the margin between peak electricity demand and【C4】______supply is falling. In June it said the margin would【C5】______from 14% in 2014 to just 4% in the winter of 2018, increasing the risk of blackouts【C6】______the weather turn cold or a power station or two【C7】______.

This will【C10】______consumption. Over the past decade an increase in peak electricity demand of 0.5%【C11】______each additional percentage point of economic growth. John Feddersen of Aurora Energy Research thinks the capacity margin will therefore【C12】______to 2.6% by 2018 unless action is taken.

That means many will have to close sooner than was【C16】______because European environmental laws【C17】______the total number of operating hours left to them.

选项
A、operation
B、service
C、storage
D、practice

C
解析
空格上文提到煤炭发电具有价格上的绝对优势,运营商从降低成本的角度出发,优先发展煤炭发电,而天然气发电无法与煤炭发电竞争,只能滞后,而空格前面用到了put...into long-term...结构,据此可推断应选C项storage“储存”,put...into long-term storage表示“把……长期储存不用”。
