The United States’ predominance in science and technology is fading, a report released this month by the National Science Board warns. The report underlines what a powerhouse the United States【C1】_____in knowledge- and technology-intensive industries, including high-tech manufacturing, energy and drug industry. All in all, those industries【C2】_____for about 40 percent of American economic output, more than in any other developed country, it finds.
But with the rise of increasingly【C3】_____emerging economies, the report suggests, underinvestment in research and development might translate into a less【C4】________, less productive American economy in the future.
The world is【C5】_____a "dramatic shift in the global scientific landscape," said Dan E. Arvizu, chairman of the National Science Board "Emerging economies understand the【C6】_____science and innovation play in the global marketplace and in economic competitiveness and have increasingly placed a【C7】_____on building their capacity in science and technology," he said.
The Asian economies now perform a larger【C8】_____of global research and development than the United States does. China carries out about as much high-tech manufacturing as the United States does, the report found.
But the report also highlights some important market sectors where the United States appears to be falling behind. More【C9】_____, the report finds that the United States might be【C10】_____in the research and development spending that scientists say is the most important fuel for future innovation. Moreover, many countries spend larger and faster-growing proportions of their economic output on research.
A)account B)role C)decays D)share
E)lagging F)effect G)dominant H)directly
I)worryingly J)remains K)priority L)concern
M)limited N)undergoing O)competitive
【C7】
选项
答案
K
解析
根据空格前不定冠词a及其后的介词短语on...,可推知空格应填名词。如果对place a…on形式敏感的话,可直接推测这里是个固定短语的形式。本句提到新兴经济体明白科研创新的作用,故应该对科技的建设给予“关注”,短语place a priority on意为“对……高度重视,优先处理”,符合文意,故priority为答案。
