The U.S., which was present at the talks, was objecting to parts of the proposal.

  答案解析

  1. K 分析句子结构,空处为句子的主语,且stressed(强调)的主语应该是人,故应填表示人的名词。此句意为:但是参与墨西哥对话的 也重点强调了政治和气候变化科学的巨大差异。结合选项中的名词,delegates最合 适,意为“代表团成员”。 

  分析句子结构,空处是句子的谓语动词,应填动词过去式。上一句提到, 一些人没有想到谈判的氛围非常积极,由此推测此处填入doubted最合适, 表示没有人再“怀疑”气候科学的现实性。

  分析句子结构,far greater 为从句的主语,故空处应填一个名词。此句意为:国际能源署提到现存的技术就能让我们达到很多的目标,尽管还需要更多的 。接着下一句就提到了 “投资计划”,由此可知填入 investment “投资”符合句意。

  根据句子结构,句子缺少谓语,空处应填动词过去式。根据空后出现的 framework—词,推测应填入outlined,表示“勾勒框架”。

  空格前为定冠词,空格后为名词,判断此处应填一个形容词。根据上下文 文意,此处要表达的是:不让发展中国家走西方国家的脏乱的污染道路, 故dirty最合适。

  分析句子结构, by the U.K. Chancellor Gordon Brown作后置定语,

  修饰investment programme,by—词暗示应该用过去分词。结合选项,the U.K. Chancellor应该是announced(宣布)投资计划。

  空格前为名词所有格the country’s,判断此处应填名词。此处意为: 后来美国承认美国的 !乃将持续增加。上文提到美国目前正在迫切地应对温室气体排放问题。由此可知谈论的主题是“温室气体的排放”,故填入 emissions合适,意为“排放”。

  空格前为动词face,空格后为名词词组sea-level rise,判断此处可能填一个 形容词,修饰sea-level rise。此句意为:另一位美国代表认为因为气候变化,世界将面临 海平面上升。结合选项,气候变化不可避免地会使海平面上升,inevitable意为“不可避免的”,符合题意。

  分析句子结构,when asked if…是省略了主语和be动词的结构,主句的主语是the delegate,从句不缺主谓成分,故推测应填副词。由本句开 头的But可知相对应前一句,本句含义发生了转折,副词选项中只有 informally含义合适,表示“非正式地”。

  分析句子结构,the delegate replied “no”不缺主谓充分,判断此处应填一个副词。此处意为“美国代表 地答复了‘不会’”,由此可知填入economically合适,意为“经济地,节约地”,言外之意在说明美国官员对 于问题的回答很粗略,不详细。
