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. To lessen the strain【C9】______heating and air-conditioning equipment, 【C10】______of skyscrapers have begun to use double-glazed panels of glass, and reflective glasses【C11】______with silver or gold mirror films that reduce【C12】______as well as heat gain.
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.

选项
A、stop
B、pause
C、continue
D、terminate
答案
C
解析
该题考查逻辑性词义搭配。可以将本题所在句译为:人们仍继续建造摩天大楼,他们这样做是出于种种原因——个人的野心以及楼主们迫切希望最大限度地拥有可租让空间。由副词still提示的线索及后文的语气判定continue(继续)正确。stop(停止)、pause(停顿)、terminate(终止)均错。
