Now that people are no longer【C11】______of the destructive lumbering of forest, the United States has partnered with the private sector, other governments and civil society organizations to form the Tropical Forest Alliance 2020(TFA 2020).

选项
A、attributing
B、devoting
C、contributing
D、directing
答案
C
解析
动词辨析题。句意同上。四个动词都能跟to搭配,所以从语义层面进行辨析。attribute to表示“把……归因于”,例如:She attributes her great age to carefully planned diet.(她认为她的高寿是精心安排饮食的结果。)devote to表示“致力于”;contribute to表示“有助于”;direct to表示“把……贯注在”。根据上下文可以推断出空格处表示的含义应为“有助于”,所以[C]contributing为答案。
