Passage Five
Climate talks between the world’s top 20 polluters have ended with an unusual level of agreement on the urgent need to tackle greenhouse gas emissions.
But 1 at the Mexico talks also stressed the massive gap between the politics and science of climate change. Several said they had never known such a positive atmosphere. Nobody 2 the reality of climate science anymore.
Business leaders from the World Economic Forum in Davos expressed a need for strong targets from governments on greenhouse gases. The International Energy Agency (IEA) said much could be achieved with existing technology, although far greater 3 was needed. The World Bank 4 its framework for investment in clean technology to help developing countries expand energy supplies without having to follow the 5 path of the West.
But bank representatives made it clear that there was no sign of the $20bn. (Z 10.1bn.) investment programme 6 by the U.K. Chancellor Gordon Brown previously. The U.S., which was present at the talks, was objecting to parts of the proposal. The Under-Secretary of State for Global Affairs, Paula Dobriansky, told the BBC that the U.S. was now acting urgently to tackle greenhouse gases—then later admitted that the country’s 7 would continue to rise.
Another U.S. delegate agreed that the world would face 8 sea-level rise because of climate change. But when 9 asked if the U.S. opposition to mandatory (強制的)C02 cuts had changed in any way in response to a surge in concern over recent science of climate change, the delegate 10 replied “no”. The U.S. is by no means the only sticking point in climate talks, however.

文章精要
文章陳述了各國首腦會議中談論的解決溫室效應的問題,與會者提出應盡 快解決溫室氣體排放帶來的環境問題。文章最后陳述了美國對此舉措的態度。
答案解析
1. K 分析句子結構,空處為句子的主語,且stressed(強調)的主語應該是人,故應填表示人的名詞。此句意為:但是參與墨西哥對話的 也重點強調了政治和氣候變化科學的巨大差異。結合選項中的名詞,delegates最合 適,意為“代表團成員”。
分析句子結構,空處是句子的謂語動詞,應填動詞過去式。上一句提到, 一些人沒有想到談判的氛圍非常積極,由此推測此處填入doubted最合適, 表示沒有人再“懷疑”氣候科學的現實性。
分析句子結構,far greater 為從句的主語,故空處應填一個名詞。此句意為:國際能源署提到現存的技術就能讓我們達到很多的目標,盡管還需要更多的 。接著下一句就提到了 “投資計劃”,由此可知填入 investment “投資”符合句意。
根據句子結構,句子缺少謂語,空處應填動詞過去式。根據空后出現的 framework—詞,推測應填入outlined,表示“勾勒框架”。
空格前為定冠詞,空格后為名詞,判斷此處應填一個形容詞。根據上下文 文意,此處要表達的是:不讓發展中國家走西方國家的臟亂的污染道路, 故dirty最合適。
分析句子結構, by the U.K. Chancellor Gordon Brown作后置定語,
修飾investment programme,by—詞暗示應該用過去分詞。結合選項,the U.K. Chancellor應該是announced(宣布)投資計劃。
空格前為名詞所有格the country’s,判斷此處應填名詞。此處意為: 后來美國承認美國的 !乃將持續增加。上文提到美國目前正在迫切地應對溫室氣體排放問題。由此可知談論的主題是“溫室氣體的排放”,故填入 emissions合適,意為“排放”。
空格前為動詞face,空格后為名詞詞組sea-level rise,判斷此處可能填一個 形容詞,修飾sea-level rise。此句意為:另一位美國代表認為因為氣候變化,世界將面臨 海平面上升。結合選項,氣候變化不可避免地會使海平面上升,inevitable意為“不可避免的”,符合題意。
分析句子結構,when asked if…是省略了主語和be動詞的結構,主句的主語是the delegate,從句不缺主謂成分,故推測應填副詞。由本句開 頭的But可知相對應前一句,本句含義發生了轉折,副詞選項中只有 informally含義合適,表示“非正式地”。
分析句子結構,the delegate replied “no”不缺主謂充分,判斷此處應填一個副詞。此處意為“美國代表 地答復了‘不會’”,由此可知填入economically合適,意為“經濟地,節約地”,言外之意在說明美國官員對 于問題的回答很粗略,不詳細。
