问题     Passwords are a pain in the ass. They’re either easy to【C1】______ or hard to remember, and when breaches (破坏)【C2】______ you have to come up with a whole new one. So people are trying to do away with passwords altogether, and so far fingerprint scanners are doing the job nicely.
    Still, fingerprints alone are not【C3】______ . Online security has become【C4】______ important, forcing service providers to come up with better measures such as two-factor authentication (验证) to【C5】______ user information. Companies are turning to other parts of our bodies to find biometric (生物计量的)【C6】______ that are up to the task, and our faces and eyes are at the top of the list. Although facial and eye-based recognition appear gimmicky for now, they may soon become as prevalent and popular as fingerprint scanners. That pairing could root out passwords and clunky text-message two-factor【C7】______ altogether, making it a completely biometric process.
    The popularity, prevalence and convenience of fingerprint scanning means it is here to stay, and by no means are face and eye recognition meant to【C8】______ it. Choudhury sees the newer method as a complement to fingerprints, providing a more convenient second-factor authentication as opposed to entering a text code sent to your phone. While the tech we have right now may not be fast or secure enough to be truly convenient and helpful, we’re getting close. Using the adoption of fingerprint scanners as a【C9】______ , Choudhury estimated we are about five years away from iris (虹膜) scanners and face detection becoming【C10】______ . Until then, we’ll have to deal with changing our crappy passwords every so often and hope we don’t forget them.
A) complements I) interfere
B) conceptions J) model
C) crack K) occur
D) defend L) replace
E) enough M) traditionally
F) identify N) verification
G) inappropriate O) widespread H) increasingly

选项
答案L
解析 空格前面是are meant to结构，后面有代词it，因此空格处需要填入动词原形。本句提到“指纹识别器的普及、盛行和便捷意味着它会继续流行，并且人们决不会打算用人脸识别和人眼识别来______它”，由第二个and可知，其前后两个分句之间是顺承或递进关系，因此第二个分句的意思和第一个分句一致，都表明指纹识别会继续流行，而第二个分句句首的by no means意为“决不”，所以此处应选择与流行意义相反的动词，故L)replace“取代，代替”为答案。
