One year after unveiling an aggressive plan, Obama said new【C1】______limits on power plants, renewable energy projects and new【C2】______for green technology have cleared the way for further action in the U.S. and abroad, despite steadfast【C3】______from much of Congress.
"When you take those first steps, even if they’re【C4】______, and even if there are politics sometimes, you start【C5】______momentum and you start mobilizing larger and larger communities," Obama said.
Obama’s【C6】______served as a progress report for his climate plan, which the president【C7】______out last June. Twelve months later, much of the plan is in【C8】______, although the most ambitious steps are still up in the air and will take years to be【C9】______realized.

Indeed, many of the steps he’s taking are【C11】______, limited in scope by hostility from both parties to putting a【C12】______on carbon pollution, which would require new laws from Congress. Still, Obama said he’s seeking to【C13】______the problem but cutting it up into smaller pieces.
"We’re moving, and it’s making a【C14】______," he told a supportive crowd at the League of Conservation Voter’s annual dinner. The environmental group【C15】______Obama early in his 2008 campaign.【C16】______on the international front, momentum has been obscure.【C17】______global climate talks next year in Paris, there are fresh【C18】______that some countries are urging others to resist【C19】______moves to curb carbon. That could discourage even bigger polluters from【C20】______.
【C11】
选项
A、damaging
B、indefinite
C、radical
D、modest
答案
D
解析
空格后的非谓语动词短语limited in scope作状语对主句进行补充说明:此计划在范围上受到局限,由此推断整个计划的步骤不是很激进,而是较为温和的。因此应选D项modest“适度的”。
