Despite the scandals over leaked e-mails, the scientific evidence for global warming remains strong. The question, then, is to what extent have the controversies 【C1】______ the public’ s trust in climate science or, worse, in the scientists themselves.
There has 【C2】______ been some decline.【C3】______, a closer look at the data across multiple polls shows that, broadly speaking, the public trusts scientists, believes in global warming and wants governments to do something about it. The public seems to have done what the mainstream media could not: it has kept the scandals in【C4】______. The harsh verbal attacks on climate science and scientists are【C5】______coming from a relative【C6】______of critics, and they do not reflect a 【C7】______ revival of skepticism.
Yet few climate scientists are likely to take【C8】______in this news. For them, the real【C9】______of public trust is the level of political【C10】______on global warming: if people truly believe the science, then why have so few of them【C11】______action of their governments. The problem is that people assess information from any number of【C12】______, not just scientists. And people make decisions on the basis of【C13】______and their own hopes, fears and values, which will not necessarily【C14】______what many researchers deem self-evident.
The scientific community must【C15】______that the issues surrounding climate change can produce responses in the public and politicians on many different levels.【C16】______do matter. Scientists must continue to【C17】______the public in plain language,【C18】______out the evidence for climate change in a clear and compelling way. And they must provide policy-makers with accurate, credible and timely information. Scientists will be only as persuasive【C19】______they are trusted, which means that【C20】______the public’s trust must be the scientific community’ s top priority.
【C13】
选项
A、self-interest
B、self-esteem
C、self-discipline
D、self-defense
答案
A
解析
考查名词辨析。空格处所在句意为:公众在______和自己的希望、恐惧和价值观的基础上做决定。A.self-interest意为“自身利益”,代入文中,表示“公众在做决定时对自身利益的考虑”,符合语境,故答案为A。self-esteem“自尊”;self-discipline“自律”;self-defense“自卫”,均不符合题意。
