Despite the scandals over leaked e-mails, the scientific evidence for global warming remains strong. The question, then, is to what extent have the controversies 【B1】______ the public’ s trust in climate science or, worse, in the scientists themselves.
There has 【B2】______ been some decline.【B3】______, a closer look at the data across multiple polls shows that, broadly speaking, the public trusts scientists, believes in global warming and wants governments to do something about it. The public seems to have done what the mainstream media could not: it has kept the scandals in【B4】______. The harsh verbal attacks on climate science and scientists are【B5】______coming from a relative【B6】______of critics, and they do not reflect a 【B7】______ revival of skepticism.
Yet few climate scientists are likely to take【B8】______in this news. For them, the real【B9】______of public trust is the level of political【B10】______on global warming: if people truly believe the science, then why have so few of them【B11】______action of their governments. The problem is that people assess information from any number of【B12】______, not just scientists. And people make decisions on the basis of【B13】______and their own hopes, fears and values, which will not necessarily【B14】______what many researchers deem self-evident.
The scientific community must【B15】______that the issues surrounding climate change can produce responses in the public and politicians on many different levels.【B16】______do matter. Scientists must continue to【B17】______the public in plain language,【B18】______out the evidence for climate change in a clear and compelling way. And they must provide policy-makers with accurate, credible and timely information. Scientists will be only as persuasive【B19】______they are trusted, which means that【B20】______the public’s trust must be the scientific community’ s top priority.
【B10】
选项
A、agreement
B、engagement
C、judgment
D、improvement
答案
B
解析
考查上下文语义及名词辨析。空格处所在句子的大意为:科学家心中公众信任的真正衡量标准在于其对全球变暖问题的政治______水平。冒号后接着阐述:如果人们真的相信科学,他们就会______政府采取行动。公众积极督促政府采取行动属于“政治参与(engagement)”,而非政治协议(agreement)、判断力(judgment)和改进(improvement)。故答案为B.engagement。
