Supermarkets, retailers and drinks companies should be forced to
pay significantly more towards the recycling of the plastic packaging
they sell, an influential committee of MPs has said.
Members of the Environmental Audit Committee called for a
societal change in the UK to reduce the 7. 7bn plastic water bottles used
each year, and embedded a culture of carrying reusable containers which【S1】________
are refilled at public water fountains and restaurants, cafes, sports
centres and fast food outlets.
British consumers use 13bn plastic bottles a year, but only 7. 5bn
are recycled. MPs said the introduction of a plastic bottle deposit return
scheme (DRS) was key to reduce plastic waste in the UK, as part of a【S2】________
series of measures to reduce littering and increase recycling rates.
Michael Gove, the environment secretary, has called for evidence on
plastic bottle deposit scheme, and it is expected to be part of measures【S3】________
he announced in the new year. Major retailers have not yet announced to
support such a scheme, and Iceland and the Co-op recently announced【S4】________
their backing for the DRS. The report publishing on Friday underlines【S5】________
the need for government intervention to tackle with plastic waste in the【S6】________
UK and calls for higher charges on companies to attribute to clearing up【S7】________
the waste they create. Mary Creagh, a chair of the Environmental【S8】________
Audit Committee, said, " Urgent action is needed to protect our
environment from the devastated effects of marine plastic pollution,【S9】________
which, unless it continues to rise at current rates, will outweigh fish by【S10】________
2050. Plastic bottles make up a third of all plastic pollution in the sea
and are a growing litter problem on UK beaches. We need action at
individual, council, regional and national levels to turn back the plastic tide. "
【S9】
选项
答案
devastated—devastating
解析
形容词误用。由动词的过去分词和现在分词变形而来的一系列形容词,如interesting/interested、fascinating/fascinated等,修饰物时用现在分词形式,而当人作主语时则用过去分词形式,因此修饰effects应使用devastating。
