问题     McDonald’s, Greggs, KFC and Subway are today named as the most littered brands in England as Keep Britain Tidy called on fast-food companies to do more to tackle customers who drop their wrappers and drinks cartons in the streets.
    Phil Barton, chief executive of Keep Britain Tidy,【C1】______its new Dirty Pig campaign, said it was the first time it had investigated which 【C2】______ made up "littered England" and the same names appeared again and again. "We 【C3】______ litterers for dropping this fast food litter 【C4】______ the first place but also believe the result have pertinent messages for the fast food 【C5】______. McDonald’s, Greggs, KFC and Subway need to do more to【C6】______littering by their customers."
    He recognized efforts made by McDonald’s, 【C7】______ placing little bins and increasing litter patrols, but its litter remained "all too prevalent". All fast food chains should reduce【C8】______packaging, he added. Companies could also reduce prices 【C9】______ those who stayed to eat food on their premises, offer money-off vouchers or other【C10】______for those who returned packaging and put more bins at【C11】______points in local streets, not just outside their premises. A【C12】______for McDonald’s said: "We do our best. Obviously we ask all our customers to dispose of litter responsibly." Trials of more extensive, all-day litter patrols were【C13】______in Manchester and Birmingham. KFC said it took its【C14】______for litter management "very seriously", and would introduce a programme to reduce packaging【C15】______many products. Subway said that it worked hard to【C16】______the impact of litter on communities,【C17】______it was "still down to the【C18】______customer to dispose of their litter responsibly". Greggs said it recognized the "continuing challenge for us all",【C19】______having already taken measures to help【C20】______the issue.  
【C16】
选项 A、suspend
B、degrade
C、minimize
D、divert
答案C
解析 考查动词辨析。文章在此处主要谈论快餐企业赛百味在应对垃圾方面所做出的努力，C．minimize“将…减到最少”符合句意，即“他们在努力采取措施最大限度地减少垃圾对社区的影响”。故答案为C。suspend意为“悬挂，延缓”；degrade意为“使降级，使堕落”；divert意为“转移，转向”。这三个动词都与此处论述的中心不符，可以排除。
