He says it is the poor 【C3】______ would suffer the most from the change. He says heat waves in different parts of the world are making people ill and 【C4】______ many deaths.

Climate change would lead to an increase in precipitation ( 降水 ) in temperate areas,【C9】______ a decrease in tropical and sub-tropical areas, where most of the people on Earth live. Those who depend on agriculture for their 【C10】______ , he says, would be 【C11】______ affected by the decrease. "At the global level, with the decline in agricultural 【C12】______ , in the largest countries of the world or the most 【C13】______ countries of the world, we will find that food stocks will 【C14】______ ," Pachauri said. "And, as a matter of fact, that has already started happening. The result of that will be a(n) 【C15】______ in food prices. Now, 【C16】______ in turn, hits the poorest of the poor very badly.

【C13】
选项
A、poor
B、remote
C、populous
D、underdeveloped
答案
C
解析
形容词词义题。or这个并列连词连接的两个短语的意思是相近的,“世界上最大的国家,或者说世界上人口最多的国家”,因此,C populous“人口多的”符合题意。A poor“贫穷的”不用the most表示最高级;B remote“偏远的”,D underdeveloped“欠发达的”,文中并没涉及这两方面的含义,不符合题意。
