"Forests are the lungs of our land," said Franklin Delano Roosevelt. Twenty years ago, the world’s lungs were diseased. Roughly half of all the planet’s once-luxuriant tropical forests had been felled and the further deterioration of the Earth’s green spaces seemed【C1】________.
Over time countries【C2】________a "forest transition curve". They start in【C3】________with the land covered in trees. As they get richer, they fell the forest and the curve drops sharply until it reach-es a low point when people decide to【C4】________whatever they have left. Then the curve rises as reforestation【C5】________At almost every point along the【C6】________, countries are now doing better: deforested are【C7】________down less; reforesters are【C8】________more.
This matters to everyone because of the extraordinary【C9】________that tropical forests make to reducing carbon emissions. Trees are carbon【C10】________. If you fell and burn them, you【C11】________carbon into the atmosphere. If you let them【C12】________they store carbon away in their trunks for centuries. Despite decades of【C13】________, tropical forests are still【C14】________about a fifth of emissions from fossil fuels each year.
Encouraging countries to plant trees (or【C15】________them from logging) is by far the most【C16】________way of reducing greenhouse-gas emissions.【C17】________Brazil had kept on felling trees as rapidly as it was cutting them【C18】________in 2005, it would, by 2013, have put an extra 3.2 billion tonnes of car-bon dioxide into the atmosphere. As a way of【C19】________the environment, protecting trees is hard to beat. It is in everyone’s interest to find out which forest policies work—and【C20】________them.
【C5】
选项
A、pauses
B、ends
C、flourishes
D、begins
答案
D
解析
句中the curve rises代表森林面积的增加。而reforestation“重新造林”可以增大森林面积,故选表示“开始实施”的D项begins。重新造林的“暂停”或“结束”最多只会使森林面积保持不变,与上文提及的the curverises不符,故排除A项pauses和B项ends。C项flourishes“兴旺”不指某种现象的兴起。
