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.
【C14】
选项
A、sensible
B、toxic
C、attractive
D、absurd
答案
B
解析
上下文语义题。此处空格填入修饰词说明是什么样的chemicals“化学物质”。前面提到塑料有黑暗的一面(has its dark side),由此可见,父母担心的应是塑料所具有的有害成分,故修饰chemicals的形容词应具有消极含义,toxic“有毒的”为最佳答案,与chemicals连用表示“有毒的化学物质”。
