选项 A、prompt
B、propel
C、promote
D、prosper

答案A

解析 本题考查动词辨析及上下文语义。空格处填入的动词的主语是these media,宾语是public concern and research attention。四个选项中,A项prompt指cause sth.to happen(促使,导致,激起),放入文中表示“这些媒体引起了公众的担忧和研究的注意”,符合文意。C项promote指help sth.to happen or develop(促进,推动),显然不能说“媒体促进了公众的关注”。B项propel本义指push sth.forward or in a particular direction(推进),用于抽象含义时只能是propel sb.into sth.,表示“驱使某人进入一种状态”,D项prosper意为“(使)繁荣,昌盛”。
