阅读下面短文,在空白处填入一个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
Every year the temperature of the earth will rise about one degree Fahrenheit(华氏度), which is a rapid increase when 【小题1】 (compare) to other natural changes. There is no doubt that it is the burning of fossil fuels 【小题2】 has caused this global warming.
Some byproducts(副产品) of this process【小题3】(call) “greenhouse” gases. Scientists call this phenomenon ‘greenhouse effect’. If there 【小题4】(be) no ‘greenhouse effect’, the earth would be about 33 degrees Celsius cooler than it is. So we need those gases. The problem begins when we add huge 【小题5】 (quantity) of extra carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. It means that more heat energy tends to be trapped in the atmosphere 【小题6】 (cause) the global temperature to go up. Some scientists say over the next 100 years “greenhouse” gases could warm the earth by as much as 5 degrees Celsius.
However, the attitudes of scientists to this rise are 【小题7】 (complete) different. On the one hand, some say this would result in a catastrophe. On 【小题8】 other hand, others are opposed 【小题9】 this view and believe that any warming would be mild with few bad environmental consequences. One thing is certain, though, even if we start reducing the amount of “greenhouse” gases, the earth will continue to get 【小题10】(warm).
