Until recently, most population growth has occurred in relatively dense urban environments. In【C1】______words, even if we were witnessing rapid population growth, that would not mean that the【C2】______were filling in with people.【C3】______, the urban areas would tend to become more crowded.
Historically, we find that people have moved to【C4】______the jobs were. Jobs were usually in ports or locations with many natural【C5】______. After transportation became relatively cheap, other geographical locations became【C6】______of economic activity. One factor that determines where people will move to, even when transportation becomes cheap, is【C7】______. And individuals working in cities【C8】______higher incomes than those working in【C9】______areas. Hence, population has tended until the 1970s to【C10】______in our major urban centers. Recently population has【C11】______out of the Northeast to the South and to the West for the more pleasant climates. If people did not【C12】______from living in large cities, there would likely be a much more even population distribution【C13】______our entire land area.
Probably, if this【C14】______the case , there would be less concern over population 【C15】______Indeed, one need only【C16】______a cross-country drive or plane trip to realize how【C17】______sparsely populated these United States really are.

【C17】
选项
A、sparsely
B、densely
C、scarcely
D、meagerly
答案
A
解析
sparsely“稀疏地,稀少地”;densely“浓密地,浓厚地”;scarcely“不足地,几乎没有”;meagerly“瘦地,贫乏地”。后文中提到the shortage of people,所以此处指美国人口分布较稀疏。
