A land free from destruction, plus wealth, natural resources, and labor supply— all these were important factors in helping England to become the center for the Industrial Revolution.【C1】______ they were not enough.

选项
A、single
B、sole
C、specialized
D、specific
答案
D
解析
本题要求根据上下文的意思在所给的四个形容词中选出一个恰当的形容词。前文说到"发明家希望利用科学理论或通过反复试验解决某个问题"。本句则是说:"他不管采用哪种方法,都是为了得到某种结果,例如制造一台收割机……"。在这里需要填入的是表示"某种"、"某个"或"特定的"形容词,所以D项specific(特定的,特指的)是答案。A项single的意思是"单一的,单个的"。C项specialized的意思是"专门的,专用的"。B项sole的意思是"唯一的,仅有的"。
