A UN agency says there are major funding gaps in efforts to help the agricultural sector adapt to climate change. The Food and Agriculture Organization, the FAO, says this could affect food security. The warning comes as the UN Climate Change Conference continues in Cancun, Mexico.
    The World Bank estimates it will cost about $2.5 billion a year—for the next 40 years—to help agriculture in developing countries adapt to climate change. Other estimates say costs could run as high as $14 billion a year.
    However, the FAO says, "Available financing mechanisms are substantially insufficient to meet the climate change and food security challenges faced by the agricultural sector." This, despite the fact that the FAO says there are many examples of how agriculture can become more.
3. According to the world bank, how much does it cost to tackle agricultural challenges yearly?
4. According to FAO, what is the problem faced by the agricultural sector?

选项 A、Lack of knowledge of climate change.
B、Not enough examples to follow.
C、Shortage of agricultural experts.
D、Insufficient financing mechanisms.

答案 D

解析 FAO指出,现有的融资机制远不能应对农业部门所面临的气候变化及食品安全挑战(Availablefinancing mechanisms are...insufficient),这就是农业部门所面临的问题,D项复现了原文,只不过是将原文句子简化成短语了。
