词汇理解
Installations of solar power in the UK are likely to top records this year, and could offset some of the expensive dependence on gas, research has found, but the global outlook for green energy is still【C1】________.
Money put in clean energy around the world fell to $45.9bn in the third quarter of this year, according to Bloomberg New Energy Finance. While【C2】________in clean technology for the UK has risen, from $1.6bn to $2.6bn, the sector is under threat as rising energy bills have prompted calls for green subsidies to be【C3】________.
Michael Liebreich, chief executive of BNEF, said this would be a mistake and would not bring down bills: \\
1.【C1】
D
解析：空格在句子的末尾，空格前的is still表明此处应填入形容词或分词。本句but前面提到太阳能可以弥补对昂贵天然气的部分依赖，这是给英国带来的好处，but表转折，因此后面提到有关全世界使用绿色能源的情况应该是不太好的，故此处应选用具有消极意义的gloomy“令人沮丧的”。
2.【C2】
F
解析：空格位于while引导的从句的主语部分，应填入动名词或名词。前句说世界各地的清洁能源投入下跌，句子主干是：Money…fell。本句提到英国清洁技术的情况，句子主干是…has risen。对比句子结构可知空格所需的词应与上一句的主语money语义一致，因此选用investment“投资”。
3.【C3】
E
解析：空格包含在不定式结构to be里，应为分词或形容词，该不定式结构修饰green subsidies(绿色能源补贴)。本句开头提到了undertreat，其后的as表明后文是导致“威胁”的原因，因此修饰green subsidies的词应表消极意义。故选用scrapped“废弃，抛弃”，该部分意为：因为能源开支上涨，有人呼吁应终止对绿色能源的补贴。
4.【C4】
B
解析：空格在助动词don’t之后，应填入动词原形。根据上文的mistake可知Michael Liehreich对于终止绿色能源的补贴这种呼吁表示不赞同，此处应选用follow，该句意为：Michael Liebreich不能理解“能源开支上涨”和 “终止绿色能源补贴”这两者之间有什么逻辑关系。
5.【C5】
N
解析：此处应填入名词，作thanks to(多亏，由于)的宾语。本句句意为：特别由于风能的……，短期批发价格降下来了。contribution“贡献”符合语义逻辑。
6.【C6】
A
解析：空格在谓语动词had reduced之后，有可能是副词或名词；根据主语wholesale short-term prices，可判断需填入副词，说明短期批发价格下降的幅度。considerably“相当大或多地”符合语境，短期批发价大幅下降，呼应上文help to reduce bills(有助于降低费用)。
7.【C7】
H
解析：空格在there is no之后，应为名词。because表明此处解释人们不了解绿色能源的原因：是因为市场没有……。transparency“透明度”正确，呼应上文doesn’t get passed through to the consumer(没有传达到消费者)。
8.【C8】
O
解析：空格在this后，应为单数名词。根据上文Michael Liebreich的观点可知他并不认为绿色能源补贴是导致能源开支上涨的原因，因此人们说费用上涨是由于绿色补贴引起的是distortion“曲解”。
9.【C9】
L
解析：空格在不定式标志词to之后，应填入动词原形，说明具体的建议是什么。上文提到人们对绿色能源不了解，由此可推断政府要做的是去“制定”或“明确”与能源相关的政策法规。articulate除了有“清楚地发音”之意，还可引申为“明确地表达”，符合此处语境。
10.【C10】
J
解析：此处应填入修饰名词policies的形容词、分词或名词。Michael Liebreich给政府提出建议，表明他觉得政府需制定更好的政策，故修饰policies的词应为褒义。feasible“切实可行的”符合上下文语义。
