The shorter growing seasons expected with climate change over the next 40 years will endanger hundreds of millions of already poor people in the global tropics, say researchers working【C1】________the world’s leading agricultural organisations.
The effects of climate change are likely to be seen across the entire tropical【C2】________but many areas previously considered to be【C3】________food secure are likely to become highly【C4】________to droughts, extreme weather and higher temperatures, say the researchers with the Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research.
Intensively farmed areas【C5】________northeast Brazil and Mexico are likely to see their【C6】________growing seasons fall below 120 days, which is critical for crops【C7】________corn to mature. Many other places in Latin America are likely to【C8】________temperatures that are too hot for bean【C9】________, a staple in the region.
The impact could be【C10】________most in India and southeast Asia. More than 300 million people in south Asia are likely to be affected even with a 5% decrease in the【C11】________of the growing season.
Higher peak temperatures are also expected to take a heavy【C12】________on food producers. Today there are 56 million crop-dependent people in parts of west Africa and India who live in areas where, in 40 years, maximum daily temperatures could be【C13】________than 30℃ . This is【C14】________to the maximum temperature that beans can tolerate,【C15】________corn and rice yields suffer when temperatures【C16】________this level.
"We are starting to see much more clearly【C17】________the effects of climate change on agriculture could【C18】________hunger and poverty," said research leader Parti Kristjanson. "Farmers already【C19】________variable weather by changing their planting schedules. What this study suggests is that the speed of climate【C20】________and the magnitude of the changes required to adapt could be much greater."

选项
A、fill up
B、turn down
C、adapt to
D、set up
答案
C
解析
上下文语义题。空格处填入谓语动词,说明“农民”与“易变的天气”之间的关系。根据空格后的方式状语by changing their planting schedules “通过更改农作物的种植时间”,推断农民已经“适应”了易变的天气,C项adapt to意为“适应”,符合语义。天气是客观存在的,农民无法对其进行操纵,故排除A项fill up“(使)充满”和D项set up“建立”。by引导的状语既然指出农民采用了更改农作物的种植时间,那么他们不可能是“拒绝”易变的天气,排除B项turn down“拒绝”,
