Indeed, patent experts often advise anyone【C13】______to avoid the high cost of conducting a search through【C14】______patents that the one sure way of violation of rely other inventor’s right is to plagiarize a dead patent.

选项
A、terminating
B、continuing
C、continues
D、terminates
答案
D
解析
本题应选D。备选项中terminate意思是“停止,结束,终止”;continue意思是“继续,连续,延伸”;依据该句大意:发明家先有一段垄断时期,这段时期结束以后就要把发明的所有细节公诸于众,又因是after引导的从句,所以答案为D。
