() 2. To ______ forest fires during dry seasons, ______ campfires in the woods is now strictly forbidden.
A.avoid; running
B.stop; building
C.prevent; making
D.control; having

C

第一空，“prevent forest fires”（预防森林火灾）符合语境，强调在火灾发生前采取措施；“avoid”侧重避免某事发生，“stop”侧重阻止正在发生的事，“control”侧重控制火势，此处预防更合适。第二空，“make campfires”（生火/营火）是固定搭配，“building”侧重建造，“running”“having”与“campfires”搭配不当。故第一空选“prevent”，第二空选“making”。
