网考网参考答案：D
网考网解析：
本题考查动词词义的辨析。填入的动词，表达Increased use of IC cards(对IC卡使用的增加)对the space needed for ticket vending(售票需要的空间)的影响。根据上文可知，IC卡的使用替代了传统的车票和定期券，因此空格所在句子的含义是：IC卡使用的增加减少了售票所占的空间。关键看四个选项哪个与space搭配，符合文意。[D]reduce(减少，缩小)，用法较为广泛，除表示数量、大小、价格等的减少外，还可以接表抽象含义的词，原文意为：对IC卡使用的增加将会减少售票占用的空间。所以为正确选项。[A]shrink(使事物本身缩小或萎缩)；[B]narrow(使变狭窄，使缩小)与space搭配，指“使空间变得狭小”，有“拥挤”的含义；[C]descend(下来，下降)均不符合文意。 document.getElementById("warp").style.display="none"; document.getElementById("content").style.display="block"; 查看试题解析出处>>
