This【57】rate of destruction has serious consequences【58】the environment. Scientists estimate, for example, that 137【59】of plant, insect or animal become【60】every day due to logging. In British Columbia,

If these paper products could be produced in some other way, Canadian forests could be【67】. Recently, a possible【68】way of producing paper has been suggested by agriculturalists and environmentalists: a plant called hemp. Hemp has been cultivated by many cultures for thousands of years. It produces fibre which can be【69】paper, fuel, oils, textiles, food, and rope.

选项
A、supplies
B、offers
C、presents
D、provides
答案
A
解析
本题考核的知识点是:动词辨析。四个词都有“给”的含义。supply意为“供应,提供(所需物品)”;offer主要指“提出某事物供考虑”;present多表示“正式的呈递、赠送或授予”;provide意为“供应,提供”。此处指加拿大供应了世界34%的纸浆,因此A为最佳选择。
