Using texting to (8)_____ efficiency is not profound science, but big savings can be achieved. Several (9)_____ carried out in England have found that the use of text-messaging reminders (10)_____ the number of missed appointments with family doctors by 26-39%, and the number of missed hospital appointments by 33-50%. If such schemes were (11)_____ nationally, this would translate (12)_____ annual savings of £256-364 million.

选项
A、rise
B、boost
C、produce
D、encourage
答案
B
解析
整句话的理解。这一段的第二句举了英国的几项试验:短信提醒功能将手机用户同家庭医生的约会错过率降低了26%到39%,同医院的约会错过率则减少了33%到50%,由此可以推断编发短信可以提高工作效率,boost"增强(某事物)的力量,提高(某事物)的价值"符合题意。rise具有很大的迷惑性,它也有提高的含义,但其是不及物动词,后应接介词,所以排除。produce"生产"和encourage"鼓励"均不符合题意。
