It is particularly likely that greenhouse gas emissions【C1】______ to human activity have already【C2】______ more record-high temperatures and fewer record lows,【C3】______to more extremes of rainfall and to greater coastal flooding. 【C4】______ inland flooding is getting worse because of human influence is 【C5】______. Nor can any firm conclusion be【C6】______ at this point about the human influence on hurricanes, typhoons, hail storms or tornadoes.
The findings were【C7】______in Kampala, Uganda, by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, a high-profile United Nations body【C8】______to review and report periodically【C9】______ developments in climate research. The group won the Nobel Peace Prize with Al Gore in 2007【C10】______later became a target of【C11】______ related to minor factual errors in a large report that it had issued that year. It has tightened its procedures【C12】______ preventing future errors. Indeed, the delegates meeting in Kampala【C13】______ scientifically cautious positions in some areas. For instance, some researchers have presented 【C14】______ suggesting that hurricanes are growing more【C15】______because of climate change, but the report sided with a group of experts who say that such a claim is premature.
【C16】______, certain types of weather extremes will grow more numerous and more intense as human-induced global warming【C17】______in coming decades. Even as such extremes are projected to increase, human【C18】______ to them is increasing as well. Rising populations and 【C19】______ decisions about land use, like【C20】______ coastal development, are putting more and more people in harm’s way.

选项
A、well-considered
B、long-termed
C、flawed
D、right
答案
C
解析
形容词辨析题。句意为:不断增加的人口和错误的土地使用决断,例如不加监管的海岸开发,正在使越来越多的人们受到伤害。根据下文中的putting more and more people in harm’s way可知,此处指的是“错误的、不正确的决定”,故答案为[C]flawed“错误的”。[A]well-considered“深思熟虑的”;[B]long-termed“长期的”;[D]right“正确的”。
