12、 crosswalk buttons dont live up to their names either”可知，人行橫道按鈕也沒有實現(xiàn)其功能，但可以讓人們感覺好一點，故選A。4C考查標題判斷。通讀全文內容可知，本文主要講述了有些按鈕只是形式上的，而不具備真正的實際功能。故C項“按鈕可能不起作用”最符合文章主旨。故選C。二、單項填空1.While experts _ delaying the retirement age, some citizens doubt whether they can _ easily to thenew age of workforce.A. accomplish
