Plants genetically【C3】______to resist insects and other pests【C4】______about 15-percent of United States crop production, but it has become a【C5】______15-percent. Several European countries are refusing to【C6】______genetically-engineered crops from the United States. Jim Skiff, president of the Illinois-based company U-S Soy, says his company will not grow crops with genetically modified organisms, known as G-M-O for short.

Some companies are avoiding G-M-O crops in their products just to【C14】______the genetic-food fight【C15】______.

选项
A、lands
B、heaps
C、plots
D、hectares
答案
D
解析
本句大意为“种植更少的转基因大豆”。填入空格的词应该是量词。land意为“陆地”,是不可数名词;heap意为“堆”;plot意为“(有特定用途的) 一块地”,不能表示确切的量:hectare意为“公顷”,符合句意。
