For many Americans, 2013 ended with an unusually bitter cold spell. Late November and December【C1】________early snow and bone-chilling temperatures in much of the country, part of a year when, for the first time in two【C2】________, record-cold days will likely turn out to have outnumbered record-warm ones.
But the US was the exception: November was the warmest ever【C3】________, and current data indicates that 2013 is likely to have been the fourth hottest year on record.
Enjoy the snow now, because【C4】________are good that 2014 will be even hotter, perhaps the hottest year since records have been kept. That’s because, scientists are predicting, 2014 will be an El Nino year.
El Nino, Spanish for "the child",【C5】________when surface ocean waters in the southern Pacific become abnormally warm. So large is the Pacific, covering 30% of the planet’s surface, that the【C6】________energy generated by its warming is enough to touch off a series of weather changes around the world. El Ninos are【C7】________with abnormally dry conditions in Southeast Asia and Australia. They can lead to extreme rain in parts of North and South America, even as southern Africa 【C8】________dry weather. Marine life may be affected too: El Ninos can【C9】________the rising of the cold, nutrient-rich (营养丰富的) water that supports large fish【C10】________, and the unusually warm ocean temperatures can destroy coral (珊瑚).
A) additional F) decades K) populations
B) associated G) experiences L) realize
C) bore H) globally M) reduce
D) chances I) logically N) saw
E) communicated J) occurs O) specific [br] 【C1】
选项
答案
N
解析
动词辨析题。空格位于两个名词词组之间,而且Late November and December是本句的主语,因此应填入动词作谓语。文章第一句对2013年美国的寒冷气候进行归纳,第二句又提到“初雪”和“寒冷刺骨”,这是在描述事实,故应填入含有“经历”意思的动词。备选项中,experiences和saw的词义符合文义。但本段除句末出现了现在时,其他句子都用一般过去时,这说明2013年已经结束,因此本句也应用一般过去时,故答案为saw。
