By drawing on the World Bank’s projections of socioeconomic
development over the next quarter century, researchers at the
World Health Organization set out to forecast global trends in
death and disease. Among the grim catalog of predictions are that (1)______
the current top two killers — heart disease and stroke — will hold
on to their rankings. By 2030, however, HIV/AIDS will move
up from its current ranking in fourth place to become the third-
leading cause of death around the globe.
One of the obvious consequences of increased development
will be more deaths and injuries from traffic accidents, but (2)______
tobacco-related deaths are also expected to surge, accounted for (3)______
10 percent of all fatalities by 2015. In the fact, WHO estimates (4)______
that 50 percent more people will die with illnesses due to tobacco (5)______
use than from AIDS that year, although tobacco itself is not listed
as a cause of death. Deaths from tobacco-related conditions will
be split fairly evenly among cancers, cardiovascular diseases,
and respiratory illnesses.
The report, that is the most comprehensive of its kind, (6)______
does contain some bright spots. For example, it predicts that
maternal deaths associated with pregnancy and childbirth will
become more common, as will infant mortality and deaths (7)______
from nutritional causes. Because increased prosperity and (8)______
better medical care, the risk of death for children younger than
5 is projecting to decrease by more than 40 percent by 2030. (9)______
The death rate from tuberculosis, malaria, and other non-HIV
infectious disease will also decline. And people all over the (10)______
world will be living longer lives, with the largest gains occurring
in Africa and South Asia.
选项
答案
are—is
解析
为保持句子平衡,介词短语Among the grim catalog of predictions提前,其中grim为形容词,修饰catalog of predictions;主语从句中the current top two表示“当前的前两位”。该句真正的主语是that引导的主语从句,系动词应该与主语保持一致,故are应改为is.
