(单选题)

The underlined word “chauffeuring” in the passage is closest in meaning to ______.

A.suffocate

B.master

C.drive

D.Stop

参考答案：C

参考解析：

词义猜测题。根据第一段第一句“From avoiding jaywalkers to emergency braking to eventually, perhaps, chauffeuring the vehicle itself, it is clear that artificial intelligence (AI) will be an important part of the cars of the future.”从避开乱穿马路的行人到紧急制动再到自动驾驶，毫无疑问，人工智能（AI）将会成为未来汽车的重要组成部分。根据“the vehicle itself”可知chauffeuring与汽车驾驶相关，故意思为“为（某人）开车；当……司机”，最接近driving驾驶。故选C。
