The Antarctic ozone(臭氧)hole is changing weather patterns across the Southern Hemisphere(半球), even affecting the tropics, scientists have concluded. The scientists【C1】______the new study added the ozone hole into standard climate models to【C2】______how it might have affected winds and rains. They say rainfall has moved further south【C3】______the pole and the effect has been【C4】______strong over Australia.
And of【C5】______interest was the southward of the Southern Hemisphere jet stream. These high-altitude winds are【C6】______to determining weather patterns, in both hemispheres. Much of the cold weather felt in the UK【C7】______the last couple of winters, for example, was【C8】______by blocking of the Northern Hemisphere stream.
The team found that overall, the ozone hole has【C9】______in rainfall moving south along with the winds.【C10】______there are regional differences, particularly concerning Australia. In【C11】______of the average for that zone, the ozone hole【C12】______about a 10% change—but for Australia, it’s about 35%.
Their modeling indicated that global warming【C13】______greenhouse gas emissions is also a factor in changing rainfall patterns.
Natural climate cycles are also thought to be important here, as different rainfall patterns were【C14】______in the era before ozone depletion(消耗)and【C15】______20th Century warming.
Although the【C16】______international organization has significantly checked emissions of harmful substances, they【C17】______for decades in the atmosphere, and so their effects are still being felt. Earlier, an international organization【C18】______that even the Antarctic ozone hole—which is more severe than its【C19】______in the Northern Hemisphere—should be【C20】______by 2045-60. [br] 【C8】
选项
A、intensified
B、prevented
C、changed
D、caused
答案
D
解析
考查动词辨析。cold weather和blocking of the Northern Hemisphere stream(北半球的气流受阻)是因果关系,后者是原因,故选caused“引起,导致”。intensify“加强”,prevent“阻止”,change“改变”。
