Compared with other modes of transport, train technology might seem to be progressing as slowly as a suburban commuter service rattling its way from one station to another. Automotive technology,【C1】______, changes constantly: in the past decade satellite-navigation systems, hybrid power trains, proximity sensors and other innovations have【C2】______Each time you buy a new car, you will【C3】______a host of new features. Progress is【C4】______in aircraft, too, with【C5】______in in-flight entertainment and communication, fancy seats that turn into beds, and quieter and more efficient engines. Trains,【C6】______, appear to have changed a lot less.
This【C7】______is not entirely fair.【C8】______, people buy their own cars, so they pay more attention to automotive innovation. Carmakers are【C9】______in a constant arms race, trumpeting new features as a way to【C10】______their products. Nobody buys their own trains. Similarly, air passengers have a choice of【C11】______airlines and are far more likely to be aware of the【C12】______of rival fleets than they are of different types of train.【C13】______, trains have longer lives, so technology takes longer to become【C14】______The planning horizon for one rail project【C15】______to 2050.

选项
A、shortage
B、sign
C、knowledge
D、suppression
答案
A
解析
本题考查上下文语义。本段介绍火车技术的进步,本句为段首句,指出:没有……新想法,这些新想法正在逐步被应用到火车上。下文给出对创新的具体介绍。可见,火车技术的革新是有的,是“不缺乏”的,shortage符合文意。而“没有新想法出现的迹象”与文意相反,排除sign;“不了解新想法”或“没有对新想法的镇压”均无从得知。
