Each day of Earth Week, for example, has been given over to a separate environmental issue. They are,【C1】______, energy efficiency, recycling, water【C2】______, alternative transportation, pollutant information and outdoor【C3】______. Each one, as you can see, is wholly concerned with human problems, human systems, human safety and【C4】______how (American) humans can go on living【C5】______the same material level over the long haul【C6】______messing things up for themselves.【C7】______on that list is there any consideration of what are thought to be animals (or trees or rivers) rights; nowhere any regard for the ongoing【C8】______of species caused by humans; nowhere a【C9】______for the countless other species that are being【C10】______daily by the destruction and poisoning of habitats; nowhere any thought given to the【C11】______of the natural systems of the living earth and learning to live in them as the first people did.【C12】______all, nowhere on the list is there found any consideration of wilderness, of the need for a healthy earth to have places where humans don’t【C13】______, where the full complexity and diversity of life are allowed to【C14】______unaffectedly. All that the Earth Day people can see is something called "just think of the【C15】______"of "outdoors", and all they can think of doing there is human "recreation".
The reason that is important is that【C16】______the human understands itself as a species "reapplies for membership in the biosphere", as the eco-historian Thomas Berry has【C17】______it, "it will never stop treating the earth and its treasures ( resources ) as the rightful food for its omnivorous maw (杂食性动物的胃), will never stop acting as if it owns the earth and has the right of control【C18】______its species". This is a matter of passing laws or double-panning windows; this is a deep reordering of values, a new (and very old) way of understanding the earth and its species as sacred, an ecological【C19】______that go right to the heart of our lives. Without it no【C20】______changes will come, or last.
【C14】
选项
A、boom
B、swell
C、deteriorate
D、flourish
答案
D
解析
分析句子结构可知,complexity and diversity of life为本句的主语,因此此处说的是它们得到兴旺发展,故首先排除[B]swell和[C]deteriorate。[A]boom和[D]flourish都有“繁荣,兴旺”之意,boom作此意讲时,通常用于进行时中,其对象一般是生意、贸易或特殊的地区,而此处说的是life,故答案为[D]flourish。
