If you know where to find a good plastic-free shampoo, can you tell Jeanne Haegele? Last September, the 28-year-old Chicago resident【C1】______to cut plastics out of her life. The marketing coordinator was concerned about【C2】______the chemicals coming out of some common types of plastic might be doing to her body. She was also worried about the damage all the plastic【C3】______was doing to the environment. So she【C4】______on her bike and rode to the nearest grocery store to see what she could find that didn’t【C5】______plastic. "I went in and【C6】______bought anything," Haegele says. She did【C7】______some canned food and a box of milk—【C8】______discover later that both containers were【C9】______with plastic materials. "Plastic," she says, "just seemed like it was in everything."
She’s right. Back in the 1960s, plastic was well【C10】______its way to becoming a staple of American life. The U.S. produced 28 million tons of plastic waste in 2005—27 million tons of which【C11】______in waste dump. Our food and water come【C12】______in plastic. It’s used in our phones and our computers, the cars we drive and the planes we ride in. But the【C13】______adaptable substance has its dark side. Environmentalists feel worried about the petroleum needed to make it. Parents worry about the possibility of【C14】______chemicals making their way from【C15】______plastic into children’s bloodstreams. Which means Haegele isn’t the only person trying to cut plastic out of her life—she isn’t【C16】______the only one blogging about this kind of【C17】______. But those who’ve tried know it’s【C18】______from easy to go plastic-free. "These things seem to be so common【C19】______it is practically impossible to avoid coming into【C20】______with them," says Frederick vom Saal, a biologist at the University of Missouri.
【C17】
选项
A、endeavor
B、recreation
C、accomplishment
D、diligence
答案
A
解析
。此处空格前的this kind指代的是破折号前面提到“试图把塑料从生活中清除出去”,这是对拒绝塑料所做出的实际行动,故此处应选一个能概括其内容的同义名词,A项endeavor“努力”最为贴切。
