A big goal of advertising is to increase your consumption. Everyone needs to
consume; we all need to eat, drink and buy basic necessities. But a lot of
advertising is aimed at convincing us that we should have much more than we
need. This involves encouraging us to throw out possessions that are still
good or which could be recycled, _____39_____ extra things we may never use.
This excess consumption not only _____40_____ the world’s resources but also
increases pollution and waste. Children born today in London or New York, for
example, will consume, pollute, and waste fifty times more than children born
in a developing country. It’s estimated that more than 1.7 billion people
make up the world’s consumer society: people who have more money to spend
than _____41_____ to cover their basic needs. This number is increasing every
year. But these 1.7 billion do not spend _____42_____ . A fifth of the world’
s population, mostly people in Japan, North America, and Europe, are
responsible for 90 percent of consumption.
41(A)have required (B)are requiring (C)required (D)requiring
想法:than的前後時態不是要相同嗎@@(比較的意思)
那為何答案是C呢@@
不是都應該用現在式嗎@@
