Despite the scandals over leaked e-mails, the scientific evidence for global warming remains strong. The question, then, is to what【C1】______have the controversies eroded (削弱) 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【C5】______climate science and scientists are actually coming from a【C6】______handful of critics, and they do not【C7】______a broader 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,【C11】______why have so few of them demanded 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【C13】______of self-interest and their own hopes, fears and values, which will not necessarily【C14】______what many researchers deem self-evident.
The scientific community must recognize that the【C15】______surrounding climate change can produce responses in the public and politicians on many different levels. Facts【C16】______matter. Scientists must continue to engage the public in plain language,【C17】______the evidence for climate change in a clear and【C18】______way. And they must provide policy-makers with accurate, credible and【C19】______information. Scientists will be only as persuasive as they are trusted, which means that cultivating the public’s trust must be the scientific community’s top【C20】______.
【C6】
选项
A、informative
B、decisive
C、exceptional
D、relative
答案
D
解析
语义衔接题。后面提到的“not…a broader revival of skepticism(不是怀疑主义广泛的复兴)”表明,持批评观点的人应该相对较少,故答案为[D]relative“相对的”。[A]informative“见闻广博的;授予知识的”;[B]decisive“决定性的;果断的”;[C]exceptional“例外的;特别的”。
