选项 A、endeavours
B、enterprises
C、functions
D、performances

答案C

解析 本题考查名词词义的辨析。空格处填入的名词充当extending them to结构中的介词宾语,其中extend…to…意为"扩展…用于…",them指上文中的its commercial spaces(东日本铁路的商业空地)。因此,所填的名词应与前文一致,表达这些空地的用处或功能,应与use的名词形式usage属同一范畴。functions(功能,作用)正确,即"还要把这些商业空地用于更加适应信息时代的功能上"。endeavours(努力,尽力;企图);enterprises(企业,事业,计划);performances(履行,执行,性能)。
