According to new government figures, pollution levels are rising again after several years of gradual decline.
Data【C1】______ on Friday by the Energy Department show American factories and power plants putting more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere during the first six months of 2014 compared with the same period in each of the past two years. The figures【C2】______ a reversal first seen in 2013, when the trend of steadily falling emissions【C3】______ halted.
The higher emissions are primarily a reflection of a【C4】______ economy, as American businesses burned more gas and oil to meet higher demand. But the shift also highlights the challenge【C5】______ the Obama administration as it seeks to honor a pledge to sharply cut U. S. emissions of greenhouse gases by the end of the decade.
Administration officials said the【C6】______ was not particularly surprising given the improving economy, and some pointed to one of the report’s bright spots: Even as the economy expanded, carbon 【C7】______ from automobiles have remained essentially flat, as more Americans switched to fuel-efficient cars and trucks.
Some also cited another【C8】______ trend in the report: Big jumps in the use of alternative and renewable【C9】______ . Solar, wind and hydropower were up more than 7 percent compared with two years ago, according to the report, and renewable sources now【C10】______ for nearly 12 percent of the country’s domestic energy production.
【C8】
选项
答案
H
解析
空格位于宾语核心词trend之前,且前面有another限定,故应填入形容词作定语。上一段提到,有些人指出报告中的亮点之一,此处提到有些人还引用了报告里的另一个趋势,根据上下文的语义呼应可知,该段中的another trend也是报告中的bright spots之一,故空格中应填入与bright语义一致的词,因此[H]encouraging“令人鼓舞的”为答案。备选形容词中,outstanding意为“杰出的;显著的”,“杰出的”一般用来修饰人,“显著的”修饰事物时强调important或obvious,显然这里encouraging更恰当,故排除。
