There’s no question that the Earth is getting hotter. The real questions are: How much of the warming is our fault, and are we【C1】______to slow the devastation by controlling our insatiable【C2】______for fossil fuels? Global warming can seem too【C3】______to worry about, or too uncertain-something projected by the same computer【C4】______that often can’t get next week’s weather right. On a raw winter day you might think that a few degrees of warming wouldn’t be such a bad thing anyway. And no doubt about it: Warnings about climate change can sound like an environmentalist scare tactic, meant to force us out of our cars and【C5】______our lifestyles. Comforting thoughts, perhaps. Unfortunately, however, the Earth has some【C6】______news. From Alaska to the snowy peaks of the Andes the world is heating up right now, and fast. Globally, the temperature is up 1°F over the past century, but some of the coldest, most remote spots have warmed much more. The results aren’t pretty. Ice is【C7】______. rivers are running dry, and coasts are【C8】______. threatening communities. The【C9】______are happening largely out of sight. But they shouldn’t be out of mind, because they are【C10】______of what’s in store for the rest of the planet.
A)remote B)techniques C)consisting D)omens E)willing
F)restrict G)skill H)appetite I)melting J)vanishing
K)eroding L)discomforting M)curiosity N)changes O)skillful [br] 【C2】
选项
答案
H
解析
注意空格前面的两个单词,动词control和形容词insatiable,故此处只能填名词。这个名词后面还可以接for。从前面的slow the devastation的逻辑意义分析,此处填appetite,通常和介词for搭配,表示控制我们贪得无厌的欲望,刚好与slow the devastation逻辑关系一致,即“通过控制欲望”去“减缓对地球的破坏”。
