We literally live in and breathe pollution, and【C3】________surprise, it is beginning to【C4】________our health, our happiness, and our civilization.
Once we thought of pollution【C5】________meaning simply the smog—the choking, stinging, dirty【C6】________that hovers over cities. But air pollution, while it is【C7】________the most dangerous, is only one type of contamination among several【C8】________attack the most basic life functions.

选项
A、so
B、thereby
C、since
D、because
答案
B
解析
本句句意为“我们也正在污染海洋,杀死了鱼类,……剥夺了我们那无价的食物供应。”此空前后为因果关系,且depriving前不能用so或其他表因果关系的连词,而只能用介词thereby,故选B。
