A scientific discovery is often made 【C1】______ before someone is able to put it to use. 【C2】______ , scientists discovered how to split atoms decades 【C3】______ the invention of the atomic bomb and the use of 【C4】______ power to produce electricity. But sometimes discovery and 【C5】______ happen at the same time, as occurred more than thirty years ago 【C6】______ the discovery of coherent light and the invention of the laser.
The word laser 【C7】______ "light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation." To many people, lasers are very mysterious, but a laser is simply a 【C8】______ that produces a strong light. The light from the laser is called 【C9】______ light because it is light that only moves in one direction. 【C10】______ , incoherent light, like the light from the sun or light from a bulb, moves away from its source 【C11】______ all directions, so its strength is very spread out. The light from a laser, moving in only one direction and 【C12】______ in a narrow beam, is much stronger. Laser light is created by a 【C13】______ called stimulated emission. In this process, the atoms of a certain substance, such as a crystal or a gas, are excited 【C14】______ that they produce coherent light. A person working with a laser can aim this coherent light, 【C15】______ a laser beam, in any direction.
As soon as the laser was developed, scientists began thinking of practical applications 【C16】______ it. One of the earliest uses was to make extremely precise measurements of distance and speed. 【C17】______ , the distance to the moon was measured to within a foot, and the speed of light was measured to 【C18】______ a thousandth of a mile per second. As time 【C19】______ , many more applications for the laser were 【C20】______ .
【C11】
选项
A、from
B、in
C、toward
D、by
答案

此题考查介词的用法。介词短语in all directions是固定说法,意为“四面八方”。例如:The crowd ran screaming in all directions.其他三个选项均无该用法。所以,只有B项符合题意。
