Three years ago, California’s rivers and reservoirs were at record low levels. Governor Jerry Brown declared a drought state of【C1】________and called upon all Californians to save water in "every way possible."
Hegel, the director of purchasing for a Hilton Hotel in Los Angeles, went to a trade show in search of new ways for his hotel to【C2】________with Brown’s call, and he was attracted by a salesman’s【C3】________.

"After installing the first machine, we found that it【C8】________used 90 percent less water and very little chemicals—and the laundry results were【C9】________," he says. "Our director of housekeeping was ecstatic(欣喜若狂的)."

【C6】
选项
答案
E
解析
动词辨析题。分析句子结构可知,空格前面为助动词would,空格处应为动词原形。根据此句前半部分可知,该销售人员将这种新型洗衣机与传统洗衣机进行比较。而后半部分用while连接,是对前半句意思的让步转折,意在表明这种新型的洗衣机在能耗和用水都减少的情况下,还能达到更佳的效果。结合备选项,E)deliver“递送;兑现”符合题意,故为答案。
