Kim Cobb, a professor at the Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta, is one of a small but growing minority of academics 36 are cutting back on their air travel because of climate change. Travelling to conferences, lectures, workshops, and the like frequently by plane 37 ( view ) as important for scientists to get together and exchange information. But Cobb and others 38 ( be ) now questioning that idea pushing conferences to provide more chances to participate remotely, and 39 ( change ) their personal behavior to do their part in dealing with the climate change crisis. On a website called No Fly Climate Sci , for example, 40 ( rough ) 200 academics - many of them climate scientists 41 ( promise ) to fly as little as possible since the effort started two years ago.
Cobb, for her party, started to ask conference organizers who invited her to speak 42 she could do so remotely; about three-quarters of 43 time, they agreed. When the answer, was no, she, declined the 44 ( invite ) . That approach brought Cobb's air travel last year down by 75%, and she plans 45 ( continue ) the practice. "It has been fairly rewarding.

答案
who/that 37 . is viewed/has been viewed 38 . are 39 . changing 40 . roughly 41 . have promised 42 . whether/if 43 . the 44 . invitation 45 . to continue
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一个由学者团体发行的实践,目的是为了减少学术飞行以应对气候变化危机。
36 .考查定语从句。句意:亚特兰大佐治亚科技研究院的教授 Kim Cobb 是一个少数但是不断增加的少数学者中的一员,因为气候变化,他们正在削减他们的飞机旅行。名词 academics 后为定语从句且在从句中作主语,应使用关系代词替代,故填 that/who 。
37 .考查被动语态。句意:对科学家而言,旅行去参加会议、讲座、工作室之类的地方来相聚并交流信息这件事被视为是重要的。描述人们普遍认知的事情用一般现在时,此处也可以表示强调人们从过去到现在的认知,动名词作主语与主谓之间存在被动关系,故填 is viewed 或 has been viewed 。
38 .考查时态和主谓一致。句意:但是现在 Cobb 和其他人正在质疑那个想法,推动会议提供更多远程参加的机会以及为了尽自己的能力来应对气候变化危机,他们正在改变他们的个人行为。根据句意可知,此处也应使用现在进行时,主语为复数,故填 are 。
39 .考查时态。句意:但是现在 Cobb 和其他人正在质疑那个想法,推动会议提供更多远程参加的机会以及为了尽自己的能力来应对气候变化危机,他们正在改变他们的个人行为。分析句子结构可知,此处 and 连接并列的动词 questioning 和 change ,故填 changing 。
40 .考查副词。句意:例如,在一个叫 “ 无飞行科学家 ” 的网站上,自从两年前成立以来,大约有 200 个学者,他们中很多人承诺尽可能少飞行。此处修饰数字用副词 roughly“ 粗略地大约 ” ,故填 roughly 。
41 .考查时态。句意:例如,在一个叫 “ 无飞行科学家 ” 的网站上,自从两年前成立以来,大约有 200 个学者,他们中很多人承诺尽可能少飞行。根据时间状语 “since+ 过去时间 ” 可知主句应使用现在完成时,故填 have promised 。
42 .考查宾语从句。句意:对于她的出席, Cobb 开始询问邀请她的组织者是否可以远程进行。显然 ask 后面出现了一个宾语从句,宾语从句句意不完整, whether/if“ 是否 ” 符合语境,故填 whether 或 if 。
43 .考查冠词。句意:大约有四分之三的时间,他们同意了。此处特指 Cobb 询问的时间范围内,故填 the 。
44 .考查名词。句意:当答案是否定的时候,她拒绝了那个邀请。此处需填入名词作动词 decline 的宾语,故填 invitation 。
45 .考查动词不定式。句意:他打算继续这个实践。动词 plan 后面跟动词不定式, plan to do sth“ 计划做 ” ,故填 to continue 。
