C 本题的答案是 carried out（执行；完成）。“A new examination of urban policies has been carried out” 意思上配得上。carried along（携带）、carried away（运走）和 carried back（运回）与下文的意思搭配不上。 2.D 通篇文章
12、讨论的是气候变化对城市的影响及其应对措施，并没有涉及 economic （经济 的）、industrial （工业的）和 rural （农村的）的话题。所以，这三个选项不可能是 答案，urban 才是答案。 3.A 前面一句谈到，发展中国家的飞速成长的城市备受气候变化的折磨。本句紧接上 一句 的意思，大多数城市没有做到减少二氧化碳的排放量。四个选项中，要选 reduce。 4. B 减少的不仅是二氧化碳，还有 greenhouse gases （温室气体）。gases 是答案。 5. C 城市应该采取有效的措施应对气候变化。采取措施的目的当然是为了保护城市居 民。 可是 Lankao 发现这样
13、做的城市太少了。本题选 protect 最合适。 6.D 前面说到大多数城市没有做到减少或控制二氧化碳的排放量。这说明“Cities are major sources of greenhouse gases”（城市是温室气体的主要来源），不会是 doubtful sources （不能确定的来源）, possible sources（可能的来源），更不会是 repeatable sources（不 断重复的来源）。 7.D 城市居民最易受气候变化的伤害，所以 Lankao 建议地方政府要进行政策介入以 降低居 民因气候变化受到的伤害，而这会带来立即的和长期的益处。因此，uses 、 chan
14、ces 和 cures 可以排除。benefits（益处）才是答案。 8.A 由 climate change 引发的 storm surges 和 prolonged hot weather 给城市居民造成伤 害。 interests 、functions 和 differences 这三个词与 storm surges 和 prolonged hot weather 造成的伤害挂不上号，不会是答案。storm surges 和 prolonged hot weather 对城市居民 会构成威胁。因此 threats 才是答案。 9. B 为什么 prolonged hot weather
15、对城市居民造成的伤害超过对其周边地区居民造成 的伤 害？因为城市道路是大量铺设沥青的道路。heavily 是答案。其他三个选项不符合上述 意2014 年年职职称英称英语语考前考前压题压题(1) 天宇考王天宇考王职职称英称英语语理工理工类类 长春金天宇文化传播有限责任公司 客服电话：400-622-3466 3思。 10.C 贫穷社区更易受到伤害，句子给出有关基础设施的各个方面。贫穷社区的基础设 施一 定是不尽如人意的。所以要选 lack。 11.A 贫穷国家许多人住在不符合标准的房子里。下面提到 reliable thinking water、roads 和 basic services 这些基础设施，从上下文判断，贫穷居民不会享有这些基础设施。所以 选 without 比较合理。 12.B
