The arrival of the mass-produced car, just over a century ago, caused a(n) 【C1】______of business creation. First came the makers of cars and all the parts that go into them. Then came the garages, filling stations and all sorts of other car-dependent【C2】______: car parks, motels, out-of-town shopping centres.
Now another revolution on wheels is on the【C3】______: the driverless car. Nobody is sure when it will【C4】______. Google, which is testing a fleet of autonomous cars, thinks in maybe a decade, others【C5】______longer. And, when it does, the self-driving car, like the ordinary kind, could bring【C6】______change. Just imagine. It could, for a start, save the motor industry【C7】______stagnation. Carmakers are【C8】______about signs that smartphone-obsessed teenagers these days do not【C9】______to get a driving licence and buy their first car,【C10】______their parents did. But once they are【C11】______the trouble and expense of taking lessons and【C12】______a test, young adults might rediscover the joys of the open road. Another worry for the motor industry is that car use seems to be peaking in the most congested cities.【C13】______automated cars would drive nose-to-tail,【C14】______the capacity of existing roads; and since they would be able to【C15】______their passengers and drive away, the【C16】______of parking spaces in town might not matter so much.
All these trends will【C17】______the car business. But when mass-produced cars appeared, they had an impact on the whole of society. Electronics and software firms will be【C18】______the winners:
【C19】______providing all the sensors and computing power that self-driving cars will need, they will enjoy strong demand for in-car entertainment systems,【C20】______cars’ occupants will no longer need to keep their eyes on the road.
【C11】
选项
A、granted
B、spared
C、guaranteed
D、deprived
答案
B
解析
空格处填的是该句的谓语部分,我们需推测主语they和宾语trouble and expense的关系。once“一旦”表明前半句they are...trouble and expense...是后半句young adultsmight...road发生的前提条件。抓住关键信息词trouble and expense和rediscover the joys,一旦麻烦和花费减少或去掉了,自然就会开心、高兴,由此判断本题选B项spared“省掉,使免遭(麻烦等)”,spare sb.sth.表示“使某人免去……”,此处意为“当上驾校并通过考试这些麻烦和费用都可省去时。年轻人可能会对康庄大道重感兴趣”。
