【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 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).

G
解析
动词辨析题。空格位于两个名词之间,前面的名词作从句的主语,故空格处应填入动词作谓语。本句仍然在说明厄尔尼诺现象带来的天气变化:南北美洲部分地区极端降雨,而此时非洲南部却________干旱。由southern Africa和dry weather之间的逻辑关系可知,空格处应填入有“面临,遭受”含义的动词,故答案为experiences。
