They agreed to cover the entire building in solar panels. In 2004, the completed CIS tower became Europe’ s largest【C4】______of vertical solar panels. A vertical solar project on such a large【C5】______has never been repeated since.
Covering a skyscraper with solar panels had never been done before, and the CIS tower was chosen as one of the "10 best green energy projects". For a long time after this renovation project, it was the tallest building in the United Kingdom, but it was【C6】______overtaken by the Millbank Tower.
Green buildings like this aren’ t【C7】______cost-efficient for the investor, but it does produce much less pollution than that caused by energy【C8】______through fossil fuels. As solar panels get【C9】______, the world is likely to see more skyscrapers covered in solar panels, collecting energy much like trees do.

选项
答案
A
解析
空格前为动词get,空后无单词,故本空需要填入一个形容词作表语。结合句意可知,随着太阳能电池板越来越便宜,世界上可能会有更多的摩天大楼被太阳能电池板覆盖。备选形容词中只有cheaper(更便宜的)符合上下文,故答案为A。
