The Treasury could pocket 20 million a year in extra fines once the country’ s speed camera network is expanded. Motoring organizations warned that the【C1】______could become a poll tax on wheels,【C2】______huge number of drivers. There could be many more incidents of vandalism【C3】______cameras. The warnings came
【C4】______a Daily Mail survey found almost all the 23 police forces in England and Wales were either【C5】______to expansion plans or considering【C6】______.
Nationwide, the number of speeding tickets is expected to treble,【C7】______ 90 million a year.
【C8】______the scheme, police keep some of the cash from fines to【C9】______the costs of fitting and maintaining extra cameras and【C10】______that existing ones always have film in them. The rest will go to the Treasury. Both Ministers and police insist the scheme is aimed【C11】______at making roads safer. They point to trials in eight areas which cut collisions by a quarter and deaths and serious injuries by【C12】______a half.
But motoring organizations fear cameras will be sited on relatively safe【C13】______fast stretches to catch as many drivers as possible. Some forces are also expected to【C14】______the "threshold" speeds at which cameras are【C15】______to the absolute legal minimum-15 mph in a 10 mph limit, and 26 mph in a 20 mph zone. This could encourage drivers to stare at their speedometers instead of concentrating on the road, and【C16】______to more accidents. Sue Nicholson, head of campaigns at the RAC, said, "We don’t have a problem with speed cameras 【C17】______. But we do have concerns about【C18】______they are sited. Police risk losing credibility【C19】______motorists if cameras are seen as revenue-raising【C20】______safety devices."
【C6】
选项
A、taking part
B、keeping silence
C、making exception
D、paying respect
答案
A
解析
考查动词短语辨析。空格所在句子的含义是:英格兰和威尔士的23支警力都有所行动,不是致力于实现部署监控体系的扩张计划就是在考虑______。英语的介词结构either…or…属于平行结构,也就是说前后两项的语义是相近的。因此要选择四个选项中和committed to expansion plans最接近、最相关的那一项。take part意为“参加,加入…行动”,代入原文表示“也考虑加入其中”,符合文意,因此A.taking apart为正确选项。keep silence意为“保持沉默”;make exception意为“破例”;pay respect意为“表达敬意”,均不符合语境。
