Skyscrapers are also enormous【C3】______, and wasters, of electric power. In one recent year, the addition【C4】 17 million square feet of skyscraper office space in New York City raised the 【C5】______ daily demand for electricity by 120,000 kilowatts—enough to【C6】______the entire city of Albany for a day.

选项
A、affect
B、assist
C、protect
D、benefit
答案
A
解析
考查动词辨析。空格处所在句中的“However”已经引出弊端——使周围温度升高,句中连词“and”表示前后的并列关系,所以只有A.affect“影响”符合语境。assist“帮助”;protect“保护”;benefit“有利于”,均不符合语境。
