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.

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

选项
答案
A
解析
形容词辨析题。空格位于定冠词the和名词energy之间,应填入形容词或分词作定语,修饰energy。由第一句中的abnormally warm可知,发生厄尔尼诺现象时,海水温度比正常的年份更高,从而比往年产生更多的热量。备选项中,additional“额外的”符合句意,故答案为additional。
