    There’s a battle raging in the streets of America. Anyone who【C1】______ rides a bicycle knows all about this. Some motorists have declared war on bikes as annoying【C2】______ that lead to slow traffic. They honk(鸣笛), shout or curse at two-wheeled travelers. A few will do even worse. The New York Times reports that incidents of【C3】______ toward bicycle riders appear to be growing, as bike riders take to the streets in order to save gas and money and fight global warming.
    In Denver, nearly 11,000 first-time bike【C4】______turned out for Bike to Work Day. The bicycle group, Transportation Alternatives【C5】______ that the number of New Yorkers who cycle daily has risen 77 percent since 2000.
    Even though virtually every state grants bicyclists the same rights(and responsibilities)as motorists to use the streets, many drivers still refuse to accept this. They view themselves as Kings of the Road—an impression that has been strongly【C6】______ by the transportation planning profession, which has designed our cities and suburbs as if people did not exist outside of their cars. But a big new idea to settle this【C7】______and improve life in the streets for everyone is now taking root among community activists, urban planners and traffic engineers. "Too many of our streets are designed only for speeding cars, or worse, creeping traffic jams. They’re unsafe for people on foot or bike—and unpleasant for everybody."
    "Now, in communities across the country, a movement is growing to complete the streets. States, cities and towns are asking their planners, engineers and designers to build road networks that welcome all citizens," declares the website of a new organization【C8】______ this idea. Complete the Streets—an【C9】______program of adding bike lanes, pedestrian【C10】______and traffic calming measures—is the best idea to hit our communities since pizza, or even the bicycle itself.
【C7】
选项
答案E
解析 名词辨析题。to settle this——为后置定语修饰idea，所以空格处应填单数名词，作settle的宾语。结合后面的并列成分improve life可知，此处要表达的是这个新想法是要解决矛盾冲突并改善交通状况，故选conflict"冲突，矛盾"。
