World leaders need to take action on the energy crisis that is taking shape before our eyes. Oil prices are【C1】______and it looks less and less likely that this is a bubble. The price of coal has doubled. Countries as far apart as South Africa and Tajikistan are plagued by power cuts. Rich states, no longer strangers to periodic blackouts(断电), are worried about【C2】______of energy supply. In the developing world, 1. 6 billion people—around a quarter of the human race—have no access to electricity.
I believe that fundamental changes are underway in the energy field whose significance we have not yet fully grasped. Global【C3】______for energy is rising fast as the population increases and developing countries such as China and India【C4】______dramatic economic growth. The International Energy Agency(IEA)says the world’s energy needs could be 50% higher in 2030 than they are today. Yet the fossil fuels on which the world still depends are finite and far from environmentally friendly. Serious thought needs to be given now to creating feasible【C5】______. The need for coordinated political action on energy and related issues—climate change and alleviating poverty, to name but two—has never been more【C6】______. Yet there is no global energy【C7】______ in which the countries of the world can agree on joint solutions to the potentially enormous problems we see emerging.
So does the world really need yet another international organization?【C8】______, yes. A global energy organization would complement, not replace, bodies already active in the energy field. It would bring a vital inter-governmental【C9】______to bear on issues that cannot be left to market forces alone, such as the development of new energy technology, the role of nuclear power, and innovative solutions for reducing pollution and greenhouse gas【C10】______.
A)demand F)perspective K)position
B)soaring G)emissions L)acute
C)institution H)alternatives M)Frankly
D)radiation I)alert N)access
E)undertake J)security O)undergo [br] 【C4】
选项
答案
O
解析
动词辨析题。句中第一个as引导的原因状语从句,说明全球对能源需求的快速增长是受到发展中国家经济高速增长的影响。同时此处在语义上要能与空格后的growth搭配,所以O)undergo“经历,遭受”符合句意。
