_______

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

答案C

解析 语义衔接题。空格处填入的动词的主语是these media,宾语是public coneern and research attention。四个选项中,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”,符合文义。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”。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”,如Fury propelled her into action(怒火驱使她行动起来)。prosper意为“(使)繁荣,昌盛”。
