【C10】______civilizations developed, greater work efficiency came to be demanded, and【C11】______tools became more【C12】______. A tool would【C13】______a function until it proved【C14】______in meeting human needs, at which point an improvement would be made. One impetus for invention has always been the【C15】______for speed and high-quality results — provided they are achieved【C16】______reasonable costs. Stone pebbles were sufficient to account for small quantities of possessions,【C17】______they were not efficient enough for performing sophisticated mathematics.

选项
A、substitute
B、compensate
C、account
D、qualify
答案
B
解析
本题测试搭配。所填之词应该与后面的for搭配。substitute意为“替代,替换”,一般构成substitute A for B结构:compensate意为“补偿,抵补”,一般构成compensate for结构,意思是“补偿”;account意为“说明,认为”,一般构成account for结构,意思是“解释,说明”:qualify意为“使……合格,使……具有资格”,一般与for搭配。所填之词的宾语是natural deficiencies(自然的匮乏),根据前面的People usually devise tools可知,应该选B。
