根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

71． But still there is a danger that grows every year．Airliners get larger．Some airplanes can hold over 300 passengers．And the air itself becomes more and more crowded．If one giant airliner crashed into another in mid-air 600 lives could be lost．

72  ．Air traffic controllers tell the pilot exactly when to turn when to climb and when to come down．The air traffic controllers around a busy airport like London-Heathrow may handle 2500 planes a day．Not al of them actually land at the airport．Any plane that flies near the airport comes under the orders of the controllers there．__73__．

Recently such a disaster almost happened．__74__．One with 69 passengers had come from Toronto and the other with 176 passengers from Chicago An air traffic controller noticed on his radar screen that the two planes were too close to each other．He ordered one to turn to the right and to climb．But he made a mistake．He ordered the wrong plane to do this．Fifteen seconds later it flew directly in front of the second plane．They avoided each other by the smallest part of a second．The distance between them was less than that of a large swimming pool．__75__．

         A． Even a small mistake on their part could cause a disaster．

         B． Two large jets were flying towards the airport．

         C． Nowadays people like traveling more by air than by car．
