The higher emissions are primarily a reflection of a【C4】______economy, as American businesses burned more gas and oil to meet higher demand. But the shift also highlights the challenge【C5】______the Obama administration as it seeks to honor a pledge to sharply cut U. S. emissions of greenhouse gases by the end of the decade.
Administration officials said the【C6】______was not particularly surprising given the improving economy, and some pointed to one of the report’s bright spots: Even as the economy expanded, carbon【C7】______from automobiles have remained essentially flat, as more Americans switched to fuel-efficient cars and trucks.
Some also cited another【C8】______trend in the report: Big jumps in the use of alternative and renewable【C9】______.

选项
答案
F
解析
空格位于宾语the cheese之后,故应填入非谓语动词与the Obama administra—tion构成后置定语,修饰the challenge。后置定语中动词的形式取决于其与被修饰的名词之间的逻辑关系,若为主动关系,则用动词现在分词,若为被动关系,则用动词过去分词,根据上下文语义可知,空格处应填入confronting“面对”。
