问题     It is the urban driver’s most agonizing everyday experience: the search for an empty parking place. Circling, narrowly missing a spot, cleverly defeating other motorists to finally【C1】________into a space only to discover that it is【C2】________limits during working hours.
    In San Francisco, it is also a worrying traffic problem. Drivers【C3】________for parking spots generate 30 percent of all【C4】________traffic jam, city officials estimate. Now San Francisco proclaims that they have found a【C5】________—a phone app for spot-seekers that【C6】________information about areas with available spaces. The system, introduced last month, relies on wireless sensors【C7】________in streets and city garages that can tell【C8】________seconds if a spot has opened up.【C9】________the system could come with serious consequences. Safety advocates say that drivers on the search for parking could【C10】________focusing on their phones, not the road.  "It could be really
    【C11】________," said Daniel Simons, a professor of psychology at the University of Illinois, where he studies the science of attention. And, he said, it could also be【C12】________: "Most people are looking for parking spaces in places that have a lot of traffic and a lot of【C13】________." City officials acknowledge the potential【C14】________. They are urging drivers to【C15】________before they pull up the city’s iPhone app, or to do so before they leave home. But the spots can disappear quickly,【C16】________any circling driver knows, and for plugged-in motorists in the habit of texting or glancing at the GPS, the urge to use the parking app is certain to【C17】________as the frustration does. San Francisco has put sensors into 7,000 metered parking spots and 12,250 spots in city garages. If spaces in an area open up, the sensors communicate wirelessly with computers that in turn make the information【C18】________to app users within a minute. On the app, a map shows which blocks have lots of places (blue) and which are【C19】________(red). San Francisco’s is by far the most widespread【C20】________that several cities, universities and private parking garages are experimenting with.
【C5】

选项 A、manner
B、solution
C、strategy
D、resolution

答案B

解析 上文提到找停车位难的问题,这句用了now,表示现在的情况:旧金山找到了________。根据后面的a phone app for spot-seekers (一个寻找车位的手机应用程序),可知有了解决方法。答案为B项solution“(问题的)解决方法”。A项manner表示行为的特殊“方式”或独特的个人处事“方法”,本句的主语是“旧金山”,不适用。C项strategy“战略,策略”指的是一项长期的计划,手机应用程序显然不是计划。D项resolution意为“解决”时,为不可数名词,根据空格前的a可排除。
