A vertical solar project on such a large【C5】______has never been repeated since.
Covering a skyscraper with solar panels had never been done before, and the CIS tower was chosen as one of the "10 best green energy projects". For a long time after this renovation project, it was the tallest building in the United Kingdom, but it was【C6】______overtaken by the Millbank Tower.

选项
答案
A
解析
空格前为动词get,空后无单词,故本空需要填入一个形容词作表语。结合句意可知,随着太阳能电池板越来越便宜,世界上可能会有更多的摩天大楼被太阳能电池板覆盖。备选形容词中只有cheaper(更便宜的)符合上下文,故答案为A。
