As was discussed before, it was not until the 19th century that the newspaper became the dominant pre-electronic【C1】______ , following in the wake of the pamphlet and the book and in the company of the periodical. It was during the same time that the communications revolution【C2】______ up, beginning with transport, the railway, and【C3】______ on through the telegraph, the telephone, radio, and motion pictures into the 20th-century world of the motor car and the airplane.

选项
答案
A
解析
这里缺少谓语动词,且与up构成短语。空格后提到的运输、铁路,到电报、电话、收音机、电影,再到汽车、飞机,这是一个发展变化的过程,表明通讯革命(communications revolution)迅猛发展,只有speed up“加快速度”能体现这一语义。picked UP“捡起;接送”不符合语义。
