二、图图的爸爸之前每天开车送他来学校,而现在图图选择了骑车前来,他向大家介绍了有关“碳中和(carbon neutrality)”的相关知识。从方框中选择合适的单词,并用其适当形式填空,补全图图的科普。
rubbish plant city start bring something mean try save make
What is “carbon neutrality”?
Carbon dioxide(二氧化碳)
makes
the Earth get warmer and warmer. Warmer weather
brings
us lots of troubles, such as the melting iceberg(冰山融化) and rising sea levels(海平面). If we don't do
anything
, there will be more bad weather and many
cities
beside the sea will be covered(覆盖) with seawater in the future.
Our country is
trying
many ways to reduce CO₂. We want to achieve carbon neutrality before 2060. “Carbon neutrality”
means
that the amount(数量) of CO₂ we emit(释放) is equal to the amount we offset(抵消). How can we do that? We should reduce CO₂ in the air by
planting
trees, using new energy, recycling
rubbish
and so on.
As students, we can also help. We can
save
paper, take the bus or just buy fewer clothes. Let's
start
from now on!

【分析】
做此类选词填空时,需先通读全文理解语境,再分析每个空缺处的词性、时态等语法要求,最后结合方框内单词转换为适当形式填入。具体思路:1. 明确句子主语,判断动词的形式(第三人称单数、现在分词、原形等);2. 注意名词单复数、不定代词在肯定/否定句中的用法;3. 掌握介词后接动名词、情态动词/let's后接动词原形等语法规则。
【解析】
1. 第一空:主语Carbon dioxide为不可数名词,谓语动词用第三人称单数,结合语境“使地球变暖”,选make,变为makes;
2. 第二空:主语Warmer weather为不可数名词,谓语用第三人称单数,“带来麻烦”,选bring,变为brings;
3. 第三空:否定句中表示“任何事”,用不定代词anything;
4. 第四空:many修饰可数名词复数,“很多城市”,选city,变为cities;
5. 第五空:由is可知是现在进行时(be doing),表示“正在尝试”,选try,变为trying;
6. 第六空:主语Carbon neutrality为单数,谓语用第三人称单数,“意思是”,选mean,变为means;
7. 第七空:by是介词,后接动名词,“通过种树”,选plant,变为planting;
8. 第八空:recycle后接名词,“回收垃圾”,选rubbish;
9. 第九空:情态动词should后接动词原形,“节约纸”,选save;
10. 第十空:let's后接动词原形,“从现在开始”,选start。
