完形填空答案及解析：

ies考查动词辨析。exhaust表示“使筋疲力尽，用尽”；suppress表示“镇压，抑制”；terrify表

示“使惊吓”；disgust表示“使反感”。前文表明关于气候变暖的惊悚报道让我们感到恐惧，更糟糕的是，

它吓到了我们的孩子们。

ed考查动词辨析。dismiss表示“开除，解散”；distract表示“使分心，分散”；deposit表示

“储蓄，寄存”；depict表示“描绘，描述”。

ough考查连词。题考查考生对上下句关系的理解，上半句AlGore讲述海平面上升20英尺会

几乎完全淹没佛罗里达、纽约、荷兰和上海，后半句讲联合国说这种事不会发生，由此可见前后句是转折

的关系，所以用eventhough，表示“尽管”；而asif表示“似乎”；inthat表示“因为”；inca表示“以

35

防”。

ting考查动词。measure表示“测量，估量”；signify表示“意味，预示”；estimate表示“估

计，预测”；extract表示“提取”。空格所在的句子说联合国认为淹没事件不会发生，同时预测海平面只会

上升20英尺的二十分之一。

nted考查动词。beconfrontedwith„为固定短语，表示“面临（困难、危险等）”。

考查therebe句型。由句中的连词and可知前后必须都是句子，表示某个现象或东西存在用

therebe句型。

nt考查名词。morality表示“道德，伦理”；interaction表示“相互沟通，相互作用”；argument

表示“争论，辩论”；dialogue表示“对话”；文章前面两段都是在讲AlGore与联合国不同的观点，因此

这里填争论。

ively考查副词辨析。prevalently表示“流行地，普遍地”；predictably表示“可预言地”；

expressively表示“意味深长地”；excessively表示“过度地，极度”。本句表达的意思是过度担心气候变

暖意味着我们担心的其它事情会变少，而在这些事情上我们本可以做得更好。

mple考查固定短语。forexample表示“例如”；inaddition表示“另外，除此之外”；bycontrast

表示“相比之下”；inshort表示“总之”；从上下文我们可以看出这句话是举例子，所以用forexample。

考查固定短语。该题较为简单，atrisk为固定短语，表示“有危险”。

ing考查动词。sufferfrom表示“遭受；患„„病”。

ration考查名词辨析。explanation表示“解释”；rervation表示“预约；预定”；exaggeration表

示“夸张”；revelation表示“启示”。本题显然承接上文提到的人们对于全球气候变暖这个问题过度夸张

的情况。

考查形容词辨析。dumped表示“废弃的”；dimmed表示“暗灰色的”；doubled表示“两

倍的”；doomed表示“注定的；命定的”。这里表示人们假设如果地球的命运是注定好的，也就是说如果

全球变暖这个问题是注定了的话，那么就不需要做任何事情来拯救，因为做了也没有用。

75.B．majority考查名词辨析。amajorityof表示“大多数的；mixture表示“混合”；quantity表示“质量”；

quota表示“配额；限额”。

考查形容词辨析。前面文章一直在讲夸大全球变暖问题所带来的坏处，这里是作者想强调的最

坏的代价，所以用worst。

考查介词辨析。among表示“三者或三者以上之间”，amongchildren表示“在孩子们当中”。

tion考查名词辨析。paration表示“分离，分开”；sanction表示“制裁，处罚”；isolation

表示“隔离，孤立”；extinction表示“灭绝”。全球变暖只有可能会造成大量动物的灭绝，其他选项均不

恰当。

ingfor考查词组辨析。turnout表示“生产；结果是”；tideover表示“克服，度过”；archfor

表示“寻找，搜索”；pullthrough表示“克服困难，渡过难关”。这里是说有些小孩子担心北极熊会灭绝，

而这种担心显然对于他们来说是多余的，所以一些家长会寻找一些其他的东西来转移孩子们的注意力。

考查介词辨析。contraryto为固定搭配，表示“与„„相反”。

e考查介词辨析。despite表示“尽管”，后面一般跟doing；besides表示“此外，而且”；

regardlessof表示“尽管，不管”；except表示“除„„之外”。
