2268.C.argument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。69.D.excessively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。70.A.forexample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。71.D.risk考查固定短语。该题较为简单，atrisk为固定短语，表示“有危险”。72.A.suffering考查动词。sufferfrom表示“遭受；患……病”。73.C.Exaggeration考查名词辨析。explanation表示“解释”；reservation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。74.D.doomed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“

23混合”；quantity表示“质量”；quota表示“配额；限额”。76.B.worst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。77.A.among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”。78.D.extinction考查名词辨析。separation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。79.C.searchingfor考查词组辨析。turnout表示“生产；结果是”；tideover表示“克服，度过”；searchfor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。80.B.to考查介词辨析。contraryto为固定搭配，表示“与……相反”。81.A.Despite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”。ⅥTranslation82.（我们刚到山顶）thanweallsatdowntorest.83.Anyonedrivingwithahighbloodalcohollevel(将被指控为醉驾)andfacea
