问题 Scientists on Tuesday pushed the hands of the infamous "Doomsday Clock" forward one minute from last year, signaling their______ pessimism about the efforts of world leaders to handle global threats.

选项 A、increase
B、increased
C、increasedly
D、increasing

答案D

解析 D选项:increasing的意思为“越来越多的”,该词为形容词,后面可跟名词,如:It cannot meet the increasing request of visas any more.(它已不能满足逐渐增长的签证需求。)句意:周二,科学家们把邪恶的“末日之钟”的指针向前拨动,使之比去年快了一分钟,表达了他们对于世界各国领导人应对全球威胁的行动感到越来越悲观。故选D。其他三项中,A选项为动词形式,B选项为过去分词形式,C选项为副词形式,都不能修饰后面的名词pessimism。
