问题     Shoals of fish are able to move and turn in seamless formation by following simple rules that are like those used by car drivers, researchers say.
    Some of the most【C1】______sights in nature happen when animals form【C2】______ groups and move together as if【C3】______. Earlier work has shown that fish in large groups make better decisions than【C4】______or small groups.
    Many theories have been【C5】______ about how animals might communicate in order to【C6】______this. But now it appears really simple. The researchers【C7】______groups of two, four or eight mosquito fish in a square arena for five minutes【C8】______studied the movements of individuals in each group. The【C9】______of the swimming fish were fed into software which acts like many pairs of eyes to keep【C10】______ on the direction and speed of each fish in the school and【C11】______it responds to other fish around it.
    As schools of fish rarely suffer from crashes or【C12】______, the rules they use could also【C13】______be applied to robotic systems to solve traffic problems. If a system could be【C14】______ where each car knew where each car was and they could respond to each other and communicate with each other, traffic problems【C15】______ be avoid.
    The researchers used a technique called artificial neural networks to look for【C16】______ in the data. And it turns out the【C17】______ well-organized swimming that fish in shoals【C18】______is actually caused by each fish using very simple rules to respond to its neighbors. These rules include " accelerate towards a neighbor that is far away from you" and " decelerate when a neighbor is【C19】______ in front of you". It is also found that a fish only responds to a single nearest neighbor at any one time. Those【C20】______ to be the rules people use when they are driving.
【C19】

选项 A、quite
B、also
C、yet
D、right

答案D

解析 副词辨析题。句意为:这些规则包括“向距离你较远的邻居加速前进”以及“当有一个邻居在你正前方时应减速”。该空格所需填入的副词用于说明其后的in front of,而该词组是用于表示位置关系的。right“恰好,正好”可修饰其后表示位置关系的词组,并符合上下文语境。前文没有列举相同或相似的情况,故also“也”不合文意,可排除;yet“还”一般用于否定句,表示时间关系,也不适用于此处语境,排除;quite“完全”多表示程度,修饰形容词,而不适宜修饰位置关系,排除。
