the northwestern areas of the United States. These old forests, calling" old 【M2】 ______

many mills are geared for old-growth industry. In recently years, 500 acres 【M8】 ______

选项
答案
economical改成economic
解析
用词不当,形容词使用错误。economical意为“节俭的,节约的”;economic表示“经济的,经济学的,经济上的”,如:economic problem,economic situation等,依据上下文,这里的意思应该用economic。译文:但是它的经济价值还包括它的水、野生生物、风景以及娱乐设施。
