The report includes both indoor and outdoor air pollution. Indoor pollution, which includes【C3】______like home heating and cooking, has remained【C4】______over the past several decades despite advances in the area.

选项
答案
D
解析
空格前是系动词remained,空格后是时间状语,因此空格处应填入形容词作表语。结合上下文,“室内污染,包括家庭供暖和烹饪等来源,在过去几十年里一直保持______,尽管该领域取得了进步”。由此可推断,尽管人们在供暖和烹饪方面取得了技术上的进步,但是室内污染程度还和之前一样。备选项中只有constant(不变的,恒定的)符合句意,故答案为D。
