A century ago, 【C2】______than five percent of all people lived in cities. 【C3】______ the middle of this century it could be seventy percent, or【C4】______six and a half billion people. Already three-fourths of people in【C5】______countries live in cities. Now most urban population 【C6】______ is in the developing world.

选项
A、pressure
B、load
C、restraint
D、weight
答案
A
解析
考查固定搭配。“put pressure on”为固定搭配,意为“施加压力”,且从下文的描述也可以看出过快的城市化给城市带来了巨大的压力,故选A.pressure。put weight on意为“强调,着重于”,与句意不符,可排除。load意为“负载;负荷”;restraint意为“限制,约束”,这两个词一般不与put…on连用,故排除。
