The“energy- efficient”sealed commercial buildings constructed after the 1970s energy crisis【C5】______indoor air quality problems caused by materials such as paint, wall covering and carpet.

A、functional
B、sensible
C、beneficial
D、precious

C
解析
语篇连接题。本句中的两个部分high-quality,healthful products和an opportunity to make choices that have a______effect on the world是由and连接的并列成分。由空格前的high-quality和healthful可知,effect应该是有利的、积极的,所以选择beneficial。
