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 Nihos 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 Nifios 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

E) communicated J) occurs O) specific [br] 【C5】
选项
答案
J
解析
动词辨析题。空格位于主语El Nino之后,应填入动词作谓语。另外,本段时态用的是现在时,故可以将选择范围缩小至动词experiences和Occurs。本句解释什么是厄尔尼诺现象:当南太平洋表面海水温度异常升高时,厄尔尼诺现象就会________。因此,本空应填入表示“发生,出现”含义的词,故答案为occurs。
