Every second,【56】hectare of the world’s rainforest is destroyed. That’s one to two football fields.
This【57】rate of destruction has serious consequences【58】the environment. Scientists estimate, for example, that 137【59】of plant, insect or animal become【60】every day due to logging. In British Columbia,

If these paper products could be produced in some other way, Canadian forests could be【67】. Recently, a possible【68】way of producing paper has been suggested by agriculturalists and environmentalists: a plant called hemp. Hemp has been cultivated by many cultures for thousands of years. It produces fibre which can be【69】paper, fuel, oils, textiles, food, and rope.

选项
A、extinct
B、distinct
C、dead
D、exhausted
答案
A
解析
本题考核的知识点是:主系表结构。表语为形容词,所以考查的是修饰关系。extinct意为“灭绝的”;distinct意为“清楚的,不同的”;dead意为“死亡的,呆板的”;exhausted意为“筋疲力尽的”。与物种能形成最恰当的搭配来表达题意的是A。
