Withington studies how the brain【C11】______ sounds at the university. She says that the【C12】______ of a wide band of frequencies can be pinpointed more easily than the source of anarrow band. Alarms【C13】______the same concept have already been installed on emergency vehicles.

选项
A、with
B、at
C、without
D、over
答案
C
解析
后半句的one指上半句中的a sound alarm。该句上半句和下半句由but连接,表示相反的意思,从后半句的with可以看出,两个相对比的事物是:the door without a sound alarm和the door with a sound alarm,所以选择C。
