For millions of years, the changes in Earth’s climate have been driven by forces of nature. But for the last century and a half, Earth’s average temperature has been rising【C1】______ than any time in the past ten thou- sand years. The【C2】______ in science is that much of that change has been driven by us.The climate is not what it used to be. It’s not your grandfather’s climate anymore.
The【C3】 ______ are everywhere: droughts in the American Southwest and Africa’s Sahara(撒哈拉),【C4】______ seas in Louisiana and Bangladesh (孟加拉国), tropical diseases spreading north and extremes of weather from Florida to France.
There are people who still say global warming needn’t【C5】______ us. If it’s happening at all, it’s a natural trend, not much we can do about it. But there is now hard【C6】______ which shows that the warming is not only real. It’s【C7】______ . It’s altering the climate’s most basic elements like rainfall and evaporation, days of sunshine and nighttime temperatures. Those changes are【C8】______ the environments in the agricultural production,【C9】______ wild species with extinction and putting at risk our life styles, our health, and some of our favorite cities by the sea. We’ll follow the signs and see who i f anyone is responsible. We’ll meet scientists who are【C10】______ new climate evidence and we’ll see what we can do to help.
A) worry F) signs K) faster
B) rising G) vast L) consensus
C) troubles H) investigating M) threatening
D) quickly I) dangers N) damaging
E) evidence J) accelerating O) concern
【C4】
选项
答案
B
解析
从语法结构看,该题应填入一个形容词修饰seas一词,选项中的形容词多为动词的分词形式转化的,有rising,accelerating,threatening和damaging。该题所在句表达的是全球气候变暖所带来的异常天气情况,如干旱,热带疾病传播以及极端天气,如果填J)accelerating,M)threatening或N)damaging,从语意上看和seas搭配都不合适。根据常识可判断,气候变暖会引起海平面上升,因此B)rising一词最符合。
