The new machine, according to the report...

The new machine, according to the report, will work twice as fast, ______ greatly reducing costs.

A.so B.even C.yet D.thus

 

D 【解析】 考查词语辨析。句意:据介绍,这台新机器的工作速度将是原来的两倍,从而大大降低了成本。A. so因此;B. even甚至;C. yet但是,然而;D. thus因此,从而。根据前后两句的内容可知,前面的新机器工作效率是以前的两倍,导致后面的结果,so和thus都有“因此”之意,但so是连词,后面跟句子,而thus是副词,后可以跟动词-ing形式。本句空格后是动词的-ing形式作结果状语,因此要用thus。故选D。
