Part of the problem is our exploding【C14】______. More and more people are producing more wastes. But this problem is intensified by our "throw-away" technology.

Soon we will wear clothing made of【C19】______: "Wear it once and throw it away" will be the slogan of the fashionable consciousness.

选项
A、so
B、thereby
C、since
D、because
答案
B
解析
本句句意为“我们也正在污染海洋,杀死了鱼类,……剥夺了我们那无价的食物供应。”此空前后为因果关系,且depriving前不能用so或其他表因果关系的连词,而只能用介词thereby。故选B。
