請觀察空格前後的結構：主詞是一個「年代（The 1960s and ’70s）」，受詞是「一項科技的發展（the development of...）」。如果要把這段歷史時期當成擬人化的主詞，哪種概念的動詞能最生動地描述「這個時代經歷、目睹了這項變革」？

太棒了，你的語感與文法結構掌握得非常精準！這題能快速選出 (E) witnessed，代表你對英文中常見的「無生物主詞」修辭非常熟悉。
時間擬人化與句型結構
從句子結構來看，空格前是主詞 The 1960s and ’70s（年代），空格後則是名詞片語 the development... 作為受詞，因此這裡必須填入一個及物動詞的過去式。英文常將「時代、地點」擬人化為主詞，搭配動詞 witness（見證、經歷），表達「某個時期見證了……的發展」，語意自然且道地。
