问题     Installations of solar power in the UK are likely to top records this year, and could offset some of the expensive dependence on gas, research has found, but the global outlook for green energy is still【C1】________.
    Money put in clean energy around the world fell to $45.9bn in the third quarter of this year, according to Bloomberg New Energy Finance.

    Michael Liebreich, chief executive of BNEF, said this would be a mistake and would not bring down bills: "Gas prices have risen more than 8%—we know that it is gas prices that are pushing up bills. I don’t【C4】________the logic of how that has to do with green subsidies."
    Green energy could help to reduce bills, he said, pointing to some periods in the UK when, thanks to the【C5】________of wind power in particular, wholesale short-term prices had reduced【C6】________.

选项

答案L

解析 空格在不定式标志词to之后,应填入动词原形,说明具体的建议是什么。上文提到人们对绿色能源不了解,由此可推断政府要做的是去“制定”或“明确”与能源相关的政策法规。articulate除了有“清楚地发音”之意,还可引申为“明确地表达”,符合此处语境。
