For millions of years, the changes in Earth’s climate have been driven by forces of nature. But for the last century and a half, Earth’s average temperature has been rising【C1】______ than any time in the past ten thou- sand years. The【C2】______ in science is that much of that change has been driven by us.The climate is not what it used to be. It’s not your grandfather’s climate anymore.
The【C3】 ______ are everywhere: droughts in the American Southwest and Africa’s Sahara(撒哈拉),【C4】______ seas in Louisiana and Bangladesh (孟加拉国), tropical diseases spreading north and extremes of weather from Florida to France.
There are people who still say global warming needn’t【C5】______ us. If it’s happening at all, it’s a natural trend, not much we can do about it. But there is now hard【C6】______ which shows that the warming is not only real. It’s【C7】______ . It’s altering the climate’s most basic elements like rainfall and evaporation, days of sunshine and nighttime temperatures. Those changes are【C8】______ the environments in the agricultural production,【C9】______ wild species with extinction and putting at risk our life styles, our health, and some of our favorite cities by the sea. We’ll follow the signs and see who i f anyone is responsible. We’ll meet scientists who are【C10】______ new climate evidence and we’ll see what we can do to help.

选项
答案
B
解析
从语法结构看,该题应填入一个形容词修饰seas一词,选项中的形容词多为动词的分词形式转化的,有rising,accelerating,threatening和damaging。该题所在句表达的是全球气候变暖所带来的异常天气情况,如干旱,热带疾病传播以及极端天气,如果填J)accelerating,M)threatening或N)damaging,从语意上看和seas搭配都不合适。根据常识可判断,气候变暖会引起海平面上升,因此B)rising一词最符合。
