Skyscrapers are also enormous【C3】______, and wasters, of electric power. In one recent year, the addition【C4】______17 million square feet of skyscraper office space in New York City raised the【C5】______daily demand for electricity by 120,000 kilowatts—enough to【C6】______the entire city of Albany for a day.

The heat loss (or gain) through a wall of half-inch plate glass is more than ten times【C8】______through a typical masonry wall filled with insulation board.

However, 【C13】______skyscrapers raise the temperature of the surrounding air and【C14】______neighboring buildings. Skyscrapers put severe pressure on a city’s sanitation【C15】______, too.

【C4】
选项
A、of
B、in
C、to
D、at
答案
A
解析
该题考查惯用搭配。可以将本题所在句翻译为:在近一年中,纽约市增加的1700万平方英尺高层办公空间使每天对电的高峰需求量增长了12万千瓦——足以供整个Albany市一天所需。addition意为“增加”,与介词of连接,表示“……的增加”。to用在短语in addition to中,意为“除……之外”。故答案为A。
