Warmer winters are【C1】r______ for the thinning or disappearance of ice sheets in many parts of the Arctic,【C2】______ (result)in a situation where polar bears are at risk of【C3】______(starve)because they cannot travel to their normal breeding and hunting grounds.
Even in places【C4】______there is still a lot of ice around, polar bears are under threat because they rely on snow caves to rear their young.【C5】______of the warmer weather, some of these caves now collapse suddenly and bury the bear cubs inside.
Other effects of【C6】c______ change are also being observed. Animals such as reindeer (known as ’ caribou’ in North America)have adapted【C7】______ the extreme cold and are therefore able to cope with the Arctic climate. For【C8】m______of years they have been migrating to places where they breed and find food. These【C9】______(migrate)coincide with the growing seasons of the plants they feed on.【C10】______(ecology)have found, however, that these animals are now arriving at their spring feeding grounds too late, and the【C11】______they eat have gone to seed. This is having a【C12】s______ impact on caribou herds. A substantial number of calves are being lost and there is already a substantial【C13】(reduce)______ in the size of the herds. Scientists are concerned, but【C14】______(power)to do anything in response to the situation—everything they have tried has been in vain. This is simply another unforeseen consequence of【C15】______(globe)warming. [br] 【C14】
选项
答案
powerless
解析
(此处与concerned并列做表语,因此应用power的形容词形式。根据语境可知,此处指“科学家很担心但是面对这一情况却无能为力”,因此应用powerless (无能为力的)。)
