Reformation of these areas【C4】______the objective of early city planners, who imposed regulatory laws establishing【C5】______for【C6】______, sanitation, water supply, sewage and public health conditions. Urban planners also introduced parks and playgrounds into crowded city neighborhoods ,【C7】______places for recreation, as well as【C8】______relief.
    The chief new urban-planning concept of the early 20th century was zoning — the regulation of building activity to set【C9】______of height and【C10】______and to protect established neighborhoods.
    Urban territory【C11】______as a result of improved public transportation. Workers could live far from their jobs, traveling back and forth by bus, subway, or car.
    By the middle of the 20th century, urban planning【C12】______its focus. Planners realized that factors of city living must be considered as a whole, so they aimed less【C13】______attacking【C14】______problems than at the improvement of entire urban surroundings.

选项 A、war-weary
B、neutral
C、war-head
D、war-shattered
答案 D
解析 词汇题。词义辨析题。句子前半部已交待事情的时间为World War II(第二次世界大战)，重建的地区可推出为“战争破坏的地区”。war-shattered意为“被战争破坏的”，正合题意，故为正确选项。shatter意为“毁坏，破坏”，如：The outcome of the conflict shattered our dreams of peace and prosperity．冲突的后果毁灭了我们对和平与繁荣的梦想。neutral“中立的”，从上下文看，既说到reconstruction“重建”，又说到war“战争”，此词与上下文的内容不协调，不能选此项。war—head“弹头”，war—weary“厌战的”，均不能修饰areas“地区”。
