It’s not just the building industry, either.【C20】______cities are taking these environmentally positive approaches to design, planning and building. Portland, Seattle and Boston have said they want to be green cities. Chicago wants to be the greenest city in the world.

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

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。
