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.

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] 【C5】
选项
答案
H
解析
名词辨析题。联系上一句提及全球依赖的化石燃料的局限性,因此本句说明现在迫切需要想出办法解决问题。空格处作creating的宾语,且又有feasible“切实可行的”加以修饰,所以H)alternatives“可供选择的事物”符合句意。
