问题 No matter how______snowmobiles are driven, they are capable of damaging the land over which they travel.

选项 A、dangerously
B、seriously
C、technically
D、discreetly

答案D

解析    (1)句子结构。
   句首的no matter how…引导让步状语从句,主句的结构为主动补(SVC),其中,over which they travel为关系从句限定the land。
   (2)选项词义。
   A.dangerously adv.危险地;可能引起危险地
   B.seriously adv.严重地;认真地;严肃地
   C.technically adv.技术上;学术上;专业上
   D.discreetly adv.谨慎地;小心地
   本句大意为“无论怎样小心驾驶,雪地摩托车开过的路面都会受损”。no matter how引导让步状语从句,主句中有表示消极词义的damage,因此可推断从句中必选择与此对应的表示积极意义的词。因此,从词义和搭配来看,选项D最符合句意。
