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】______.
【C15】
选项
A、incidents
B、issues
C、inferences
D、conflicts
答案
B
解析
语义衔接题。后面提到的“在公众和政治家中产生不同程度的反响”表明,人们对此的观点态度不同,由此可知,答案为[B]issues“问题,议题”,常用来指具有争议的问题。此处是说,有关气候变化的一系列问题会在公众和政治家中产生不同程度的反响。[A]incidents常用来指不平常的、重要的、暴力的事件或军事冲突;[C]inferences表示根据实际情况或证据而做出的推理;[D]conflicts常用来指冲突。
