The summer’s heat waves baked the eastern United States, parts of Africa and eastern Asia, and above all Russia, which lost millions of acres of wheat and thousands of lives in a drought worse than any other in the historical record. These far-flung (广布的) disasters are【C1】______the question of whether global warming is causing more weather【C2】______. Although in most people’s opinion, these are【C3】______disconnected, the collective answer of the scientific community can be boiled down to a【C4】______word: probably.
"The climate is changing," said Jay Lawrimore, chief of climate analysis at the National Climatic Data Center. "Extreme events are occurring with higher【C5】______, and in many cases with【C6】______intensity." He described excessive heat, in【C7】______, as "consistent with our understanding of how the climate【C8】______to increasing greenhouse gases. "
Theory suggests that a world【C9】______up because of those gases will feature heavier rainstorms in summer, bigger snowstorms in winter, more【C10】______droughts in at least some places and more record-breaking heat waves. Scientists and government reports say the statistical【C11】______shows that much of this is starting to happen.
But the averages do not necessarily make it easier to link specific weather events,【C12】______a given flood or hurricane or heat wave,【C13】______climate change.

"If you ask me as a scientist【C19】______I have proved it, the answer is no—at least not【C20】______." [br] 【C12】
选项
A、and
B、like
C、for
D、but
答案
B
解析
连词辨析题。分析句子结构可知,空格所在句应该是个插入语,对上文中的specific weather events“特定的天气事件”起解释说明的作用。空格所在句句意为“——一个特定的水灾、飓风或者热浪”。由此可见,空格所在句是对上文的举例说明,故like“诸如”符合句意。
