【解析】

本文主要講了塑料吸管引起的環(huán)境衛(wèi)生問(wèn)題讓一個(gè)九歲的小男孩很重視，他由此發(fā)起了一項(xiàng)運(yùn)動(dòng)，倡導(dǎo)大家用可循環(huán)使用的吸管材料，保護(hù)環(huán)境。

【1】句意：所以每年我們都有大量的塑料吸管要清理。

cleaned動(dòng)詞過(guò)去式或過(guò)去分詞形式；cleaning動(dòng)名詞；to clean動(dòng)詞不定式；clean動(dòng)詞原形。sb. have sth. to do意為某人有.......事情要做。前文提及因?yàn)樗芰衔�管太小了，它們被扔得到處都是并且�(guī)缀鯊牟换厥�。可知，有大量的塑料吸管等待回收。推斷題干意為因此每年我們有大量的塑料吸管要回收。故選C。

【2】句意：米洛·克雷斯(Milo Cress)是一個(gè)9歲的男孩，他在美國(guó)發(fā)起了一項(xiàng)名為“無(wú)吸管”的運(yùn)動(dòng)。

9-years-old表述錯(cuò)誤；9-year-old詞組，作定語(yǔ)；9 years old九歲；9 year old表述錯(cuò)誤。表示年齡可用短語(yǔ)sb of+數(shù)詞+years old，故選C。

【3】句意：這似乎是一種巨大的浪費(fèi)。

change改變；hope希望；waste浪費(fèi)；surprise驚訝。前文提及每一天，美國(guó)人扔掉五億根塑料吸管。五億根，數(shù)量特別巨大，已經(jīng)是一種浪費(fèi)了。推斷題干意為這看起來(lái)是一種巨大的浪費(fèi)。故選C。

【4】句意：許多人同意，很快就有更多的餐廳加入了進(jìn)來(lái)。

took part 指的是參加會(huì)議或群眾活動(dòng)等。強(qiáng)調(diào)句子的主體參與活動(dòng)，并在活動(dòng)中發(fā)揮作用，后面不加賓語(yǔ)；joined in加入，其后要接賓語(yǔ)；took part in 參加，其后要接賓語(yǔ)；attended是正式用語(yǔ)，是及物動(dòng)詞，意思是參加會(huì)議、婚禮、典禮、去上課、上學(xué)、聽(tīng)報(bào)告等。空格前為主語(yǔ)more restaurants，推斷空格為不接賓語(yǔ)的非及物動(dòng)詞。故選A。

【5】句意：但仍有一些人需要用吸管

So因此；Because因?yàn)椋?/span>But但是；Although盡管。前文提及很多餐館加入不提供塑料吸管的行列，空格后提及有一些人仍然需要使用吸管，前后形成轉(zhuǎn)折，填入But，表示但是。故選C。

【6】句意：我們鼓勵(lì)人們選擇對(duì)環(huán)境、野生動(dòng)物和人類危害較小的其他可重復(fù)使用的材料。

too太；much太；more更多的；less更少的。空格前提及我們鼓勵(lì)人們選擇可循環(huán)使用的材料，空格后提及對(duì)環(huán)境、野生動(dòng)物和人類有害，推斷題干意為我們鼓勵(lì)用對(duì)環(huán)境、野生動(dòng)物和人類傷害盡量少的可循環(huán)利用的材料。故選D。

【7】句意：一位殘疾人寫信告訴我，他隨身攜帶了可重復(fù)使用的吸管——它們是鋼制的。

he他，主格；him他，賓格；himself他自己；his他的。with表示伴隨狀態(tài)，其后接賓語(yǔ)，故填入him，指代這位殘疾人。故選B。

【8】句意：去年，大型酒吧連鎖店決定使用紙質(zhì)吸管，而不是塑料吸管。

one一個(gè)；ones one之復(fù)數(shù) ；the one那一個(gè)；the ones代指那些�？崭袂疤峒叭ツ�，大連鎖酒吧韋瑟斯盤斯決定使用紙質(zhì)吸管而不是塑料的…….，推斷填入ones指代前文出現(xiàn)過(guò)的straws，意為塑料吸管。故選B。

【9】句意：據(jù)調(diào)查，這每年將節(jié)省7000萬(wàn)根塑料吸管。

As for至于；According to根據(jù)；Such as比如；Instead of相反�？崭窈鬄橐豁�(xiàng)調(diào)查，后文提及調(diào)查的具體內(nèi)容，即一年將會(huì)有7千萬(wàn)的塑料吸管產(chǎn)生，推斷題干意為根據(jù)一項(xiàng)調(diào)查。故選B。

【10】句意：在那之后，全國(guó)各地許多規(guī)模較小的酒吧連鎖店緊隨其后。

across穿過(guò)；between在......之間；near在......附近；behind在......后面。詞組across the country意為全國(guó)各地。空格前提及很多小的連鎖酒吧，空格后提及國(guó)家，前后形成所屬關(guān)系，結(jié)合詞組across the country，推斷題干以為全國(guó)的連鎖小酒吧接著說(shuō)。故選A。
