问题     Automakers are doing all sorts of things to cars to make them smarter and more autonomous, as regular readers are aware. Here’s a new one: General Motors (GM) wants to take self-parking cars to a new level, letting them drop off their drivers and go off in【S1】______of empty spaces on their own. It’ll be more fuel-efficient than having humans circle the block waiting for a【S2】______to open up, GM says.
    Fuel efficiency is one of the promised benefits of【S3】______intelligent cars, which could cut down on fuel【S4】______by predicting where drivers will go and re-routing around predicted traffic jams. Smarter cars could also【S5】______with each other, preventing collisions and congestion.
    We have seen several self-parking car concepts, and GM has【S6】______the technology with its EN-V concept, says Technology Review. This new concept lets the driver hop out, leaving the car to drive itself to the nearest【S7】______empty space—even if that’s several blocks or even miles away. When it’s time to leave, the driver can【S8】______his or her car via a smartphone app, and it will reappear KITT-style to whisk (快速带走) its driver away.
    For anyone who has ever tried to park in, say, New York or San Francisco, this sounds mighty【S9】______ But would you trust your empty car to go find a safe spot to bide (等待) its time while you go about your business? In some ways that may be a greater【S10】______than the technology itself.
A) spot F) available K) memory

C) conservation H) increasingly M) summon
D) challenging I) communicate N) search
E) leap J) demonstrated O) consumption [br] 【S1】

答案 N
解析 名词辨析题。文章开头提到汽车生产商们正在竭尽全力使我们的汽车更智能化、更自动化。随后便介绍了通用汽车公司自动泊车的构想：“汽车在司机离开后自己去 空位停车。”空格处应填入名词，构成in．．．of短语。在备选名词中，只有search和memory有这种用法，insearch of意为“寻找”，in memory of意为“纪念”，故填入search更符合文意。
