Question

【題目】B.閱讀下短， 根據(jù)其內(nèi)容， 完成表格中所缺的信息 。

Nowadays, it’s of great importance to reduce, reuse and recycle, especially in the clothing industry. Every year, about 80 billion items of clothing are made around the world. That’s enough to fill over a million football stadium. It takes about 800 litres of water to make one pair of jeans. With the water, you can take a shower for 285 times. No wonder the fashion industry is the second largest water polluter in the world. Actually, 95% of thrown-away clothing can be recycled to make something new.

As a new industry, clothing rental is popular among those who want to protect the environment. But is renting clothes more environmentally-friendly than buying them? In an article for Elle, Elizabeth Cline writes that it’s not as sustainable（可持續(xù)的） as it seems.

Taking shipping, for example, which has to go two ways if an item is rented—receiving and returning. Cline writes, “An item ordered online and then returned can send out 20 kilos of carbon （碳） each way, and increases up to 50 kilos for rush shipping. However, a pair of jeans bought in a store and washed and worn at home can send out 33.4 kilos according to a study done by Levi’s.”

Then there’s the burden(負擔) of washing, which happens to every item when it’s returned. For most rental services, this usually means dry-cleaning, a polluting process. The stain removers （去污劑） used for washing can produce harmful waste and air pollution.

Lastly, Cline fears rental services will increase our liking for fast fashion, because it’s so easy to get clothes. There’s something called “share-washing” that makes people think of wasting not a big deal.

Renting clothes is still preferable to buying them and throwing them away after a few years. However, there’s an even better step—wearing what we’ve already had.

【1】根據(jù)文中Nowadays, it’s of great importance to reduce, reuse and recycle, especially in the clothing industry.如今，減少、再利用和循環(huán)利用是非常重要的，尤其是在服裝行業(yè)。以及對應的表格一行可知，這里缺的是reuse，故答案為reuse。
