Altogether, annual deaths from secondhand smoke【C1】______nearly 600,000 years of potential life lost—an average of 14.2 years per person—and $6.6 billion in lost productivity,【C2】______to $158,000 per death, report the researchers.

选项
答案
C
解析
空格位于be动词are和表语very large之中,故应填入副词。上一句提到吸烟的人越来越少,许多人也已经改变了生活方式,本句说但我们的研究显示二手烟的影响巨大。nonetheless意为“尽管如此,仍然”,相当于still,呼应上文but。
