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.

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.

E) evidence J) accelerating O) concern [br] 【C7】
选项
答案
J
解析
该题应填入一个形容词,选项中符合这一要求的单词有J)accelerating,M)threatening和N)damaging。从句意看,该动词应紧承上文进一步说明气候变暖的恶化,选项中只有J)accelerating符合此意,该词表示“日益加剧”,恰好与下文“气候变暖甚至改变着与人们生活密切相关的气候因素”的意思衔接。
