Companies like Intel developed faster microprocessors, so personal computers could process the【C5】______ signals at a more rapid rate.
In the early 1990s, the World Wide Web was developed, in large part, for【C6】______ purposes. Corporations created home pages where they could place text and graphics to sell products.

选项
答案
E
解析
形容词辨析题。本空位于冠词the和名词signals之间,因此应填入形容词修饰signals。本句意为,英特尔等公司开发出更快的微处理器,这样个人计算机能够以更快的速度处理______信号。空格所在句的前一句提到,光纤电缆可以让每分钟接收的信息以数十亿比特计,这就要求个人计算机能更快地处理这些接收的信号,故应填E)incoming“进来的,正来临的”。其他备选形容词均不能修饰signals(信号),故均排除。
