问题 As an industry, biotechnology stands to ______ electronics in dollar volume grid perhaps surpass it in social impact by 2020.

选项 A、contend
B、contest
C、rival
D、strive

答案C

解析 rival为及物动词,意为“堪与某人(某事物)竞争;比得上某人/某事物)”,常用于rival sb./sth.for/in sth.结构中。contend作不及物动词时,意为“(与对手)竞争;(与他人)争夺”,常用于contend with/against sb./sth.,contend for sth.结构中,如:Several teams are contending for the prize.有几个队在争夺锦标。 contend作及物动词时,意为“主张;认为”;contest意为“争论;争夺,质疑”;strive意为“努力,奋斗;进行斗争,争斗”,常用于strive for/after sth.,strive against/with sb./sth.结构中。句意:作为一种产业,生物技术与电子业在销售金额上可以不相上下,到达2020年甚至可能在社会影响力上超过电子产业。
