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."
【C16】
选项
A、lead
B、add
C、contribute
D、resort
答案
A
解析
考查上下文语义与动词短语辨析。选项中的四个动词都可以和介词to搭配,关键是辨析四个短语的含义是否符合文意。根据上下文,(设置摄像机的最低合法车速)会促使司机盯着自己的里程计而不把精力集中到路面上,从而______更多的交通事故。显然,空格前后是因果关系,因此lead to“导致,造成”符合文意,表示“引发更多的交通事故”。故选A.lead。add to表示“使(数量)增加;使(规模)扩大”。contribute to含义丰富,可表示“是…的原因;增加,增进;投稿”。resort to表示“求助于,依靠”,均不符合语境。
