    In a plan called "Station Renaissance" that it 【B3】______ in November, JR East said that it would 【B4】______ using its commercial spaces for shops and restaurants, extending them to 【B5】______ more suitable for the information age. It wants train stations as pick-up 【B6】______ for such goods as books, flowers and groceries 【B7】______ over the Internet. In a country where city 【B8】______ depend heavily on trains 【B9】______ commuting, about 16 million people a day go to its train stations anyway, the company 【B10】______ So, picking up commodities at train stations. 【B11】______ consumers extra travel and missed home deliveries.

【B17】
选项 A、but for
B、as well as
C、instead of
D、more than
答案C
解析 本题考查句内逻辑关系。空格处填入的介词短语连接smart cards as train tickets and commuter passes(作为车票和定期券的智能卡)和the magnetic ones used today(现在使用的磁卡)。由于两者是同一性质的物质，因此排除表假设逻辑关系的A项but for“要不是”。此外，根据下文可知用智能卡比现在使用的磁卡系统成本要低，因此引用智能卡的目的是使它取代磁卡作车票和定期券，因此C项instead of项“代替，而不是……”正确。B项as well as项“也，又，和”表并列，D项more than项“比……多”表比较。
