During the last 15 years, the Earth’s surface temperature rose at a rate of 0.04℃ a decade, far slower than the 0.18℃) increase in the 1990s. Meanwhile, emissions of carbon dioxide rose【C1】________This pause in warming has raised【C2】________in the public mind about climate change. A few skeptics say that global warming has stopped. Others argue scientists’ understanding of the climate is so flawed that their judgments cannot be【C3】________ with any confidence. A convincing explanation of the pause therefore【C4】________both to a proper understanding of the climate and to the【C5】________of climate science.
As evidence piled up that temperatures were not rising much, some scientists【C6】________it as a pause. The temperature had fallen for much longer periods twice in the past century or so,【C7】________the general trend was up. Variability is part of the climate system and a 15-year【C8】________was not worth getting excited about.
An【C9】________way of looking at the pause’s significance was to say there had been a slowdown. Most records don’t include measurements from the Arctic, which has been warming faster than anywhere else. Using satellite data to【C10】________the missing Arctic numbers, scientists put the overall rate of global warming at 0.12℃ a decade.

选项
A、perpetually
B、repeatedly
C、incidentally
D、continuously
答案
D
解析
空格处副词描述句中Meanwhile期间(指的是上句中During the last 15 years)二氧化碳排放的增长情况。D项continuously“继续地,连续地,延伸地”,指事物或事件不间断的连续,符合语义和逻辑要求。A项perpetually“永远不断地,重复不停地”指永远的延续或不停的重复,而文中谈到的排量只是在一个时期内,该词用在此处不符合逻辑。B项repeatedly“反复地,重复地”更侧重某一动作行为多次发生,用法不对。C项incidentally“偶然地”,与现实情况不符。
