31、A.butB.as C.orD.therefore解析：解析：空格后的内容“更新的设备以及在线图片共享服务”是“重获丢失相机的几率大增”的前提条件和原因，故答案为 B 项 as“由于”，可引导原因状语从句。(3).【C3】（分数：2.00）A.follow B.knowC.getD.find解析：解析：此空格位于省略了引导词的定语从句里，空格里缺了一个能与 atrack 搭配的谓语动词。更新的设备以及在线图片共享服务能够创建电子轨迹，而我们可以使用适当的工具，来跟踪这一轨迹，重新找回相机。故选 A 项 follow，follow a track“跟踪轨迹”。(4).【C4】（分数：2.00）A
32、.divideB.poseC.embed D.write解析：解析：上文提到新的相机设备配合在线图片共享服务能创建可跟踪的电子轨迹。这里讲到追踪的原理，下文说该序列号被包含在元数据里，只要照相就会被贴上标签，有助于追踪。可推断相机将机身上的序列号也嵌入到机身软件里。故选 C 项 embed“嵌入”。(5).【C5】（分数：2.00）A.coveredB.arrangedC.extracted D.evoked解析：解析：上文提到相机拍出来的相片会把序列号像标签一样包含在元数据里，本句主语 they 指代上文的这些信息数据，空格后并列的动词为“编成索引”，故可推出可以根据标签来提取元数据中的信息
