问题     There’s no question that the Earth is getting hotter. The real questions are: How much of the warming is our fault, and are we【C1】______to slow the devastation by controlling our insatiable【C2】______for fossil fuels? Global warming can seem too【C3】______to worry about, or too uncertain-something projected by the same computer【C4】______that often can’t get next week’s weather right. On a raw winter day you might think that a few degrees of warming wouldn’t be such a bad thing anyway. And no doubt about it: Warnings about climate change can sound like an environmentalist scare tactic, meant to force us out of our cars and【C5】______our lifestyles. Comforting thoughts, perhaps. Unfortunately, however, the Earth has some【C6】______news. From Alaska to the snowy peaks of the Andes the world is heating up right now, and fast. Globally, the temperature is up 1°F over the past century, but some of the coldest, most remote spots have warmed much more. The results aren’t pretty. Ice is【C7】______. rivers are running dry, and coasts are【C8】______. threatening communities. The【C9】______are happening largely out of sight. But they shouldn’t be out of mind, because they are【C10】______of what’s in store for the rest of the planet.
A)remote B)techniques C)consisting D)omens E)willing
F)restrict G)skill H)appetite I)melting J)vanishing
K)eroding L)discomforting M)curiosity N)changes O)skillful
【C7】

选项

答案I

解析 空格前后的语法现象很简单,是一个and连接的平行结构,后面是rivers are running dry,为了与running dry对等,此处只能填动词ing形式,在ing动词melting和eroding中间选择,显然ice与melt搭配,因此I为正确选项。
