选项 A、figures
B、speculates
C、exhibits
D、convinces
答案A
解析 本题考查动词词义的辨析。空格处填入的动词作谓语，表明铁路公司对about 16 million people a day go to its train stations anyway(无论如何，每天大约一千六百万人来到它的车站)发出的动作。参考选项，该句所述内容应是该公司"计算或估计"的，figures正确。speculates(没有确切证据的推测、估计)，不符合文意；exhibits[展示(物品)]，与上下文文意不符；convinces(使确信，使信服)，后面一般接人，如We convinced our leader(我们说服了领导)，如果要接事，应改为is convinced。
