【C1】
选项 A、undergoing
B、confronting
C、plunging
D、converting
答案C
解析 plunge into／in表示“使陷入(或遭受)穷苦”。根据下文的budget conflict“预算冲突”，原文意思是“使EEC陷入了预算的冲突、矛盾当中”；所以填入“plunging”。而undergo“经受，经历；忍受；遭受”其后不接into；confront“使面临，使遭遇，面对(危险等)”，一般表示遇到困难之类的令人不愉快的东西或意想不到的事情，常用于被动语态，也可表示某事使某人“面对、面临、遇到”，常用于A confronted B withC结构中；convert“变换，转化，指(使)从一种形式或状态转变为另一种形式或状态，比如物理能量转化、数学公式转化、房间格局变动等”均不符合题意。
