The world is throwing away a shocking amount of food. A report【C1】______ that at least a third of the 4 billion tonnes of food the world produces each year never gets as far as our mouths.
Between 30% and 50% of food【C2】______ in Europe and the US is thrown away. Britain—and much of the rich world—has got used to filling the fridge with what looks nice, not what it【C3】______ needs. The cost of that indulgence is £10bn annually. Globally, the cost, in money, energy and ever-scarcer water, is【C4】______.
Our future food security has been【C5】______ the top 10 of current global worries. The prospect of feeding a mid-century planet of around 9 billion people looks impossible without major changes to farming and our diet. If you【C6】______ the United Nations Food and Agricultural Organisation’s call【C7】______ production to be increased by 70% to feed the population of 2050, most of the work will be achieved just by being a bit more thrifty. All we have to do is to【C8】______ better what is already there.
Throwing food out is easy. However, using it sensibly, especially the less attractive bits, is not.
The urge to bin and buy again,【C9】______ by multimillion pound advertising campaigns, is all the less resistible now because, despite recent price rises, for most of us, food is cheap.

选项
答案
C
解析
空格前的不定时符号提示空格处应填入动词原形。上文讲到了食物的浪费,并提到只要人们节俭些,联合国粮食和农业组织的目标不难实现,即“我们所要做的是把我们已有的东西用得更好”,C符合逻辑。
