Ask the company【C9】______what they do for the local community and【C10】______they run their operations. Some may contribute little economically to the area or they may【C11】______engage in ecologically damaging practices,【C12】______fuel-costly tours or excessive harassment of wildlife in the name of sightseeing.

选项 A、plans
B、means
C、paths
D、routes

答案 B

解析名词辨析题。句意为：电力火车和公共汽车也不失为高效、清洁的机械化旅行方式的例子。由前文中的mode，method等词汇，以及各句间的并列关系，可知电力火车和公共汽车也是交通方式，即means“方式”。考虑出行计划已是上文讨论过的内容，故plan不符合本段语境；此处也没有涉及出行的路线和途径等，因此paths和routes也应排除。
