请认真阅读下面的短文，在空白处填入 1 个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
Buildings are an important part in our lives. Yet, buildings are also (1) big problem when it comes to global warming.
According to the World Economic Forum, buildings and their construction(建造) make up 40 per cent of global energy use and 33 per cent of carbon emissions.
There are ways of (2) (cut) carbon emissions when it comes to building construction. For example, using recyclable and low-carbon building materials can help. Yet, to (3) (real) fight global warming, people need to find new ways of making buildings. Although (4) (today) buildings can deal with temperature changes, such as bridges that can "stretch" on hot days, they can't adapt forever to a hotter and (5) (wet) world.
At the same time, higher average temperatures bring more (6) (problem) to buildings. There will be more ants and mosquitoes(蚊子). More ants can eat more wood and damage buildings. More mosquitoes mean unsafe living places (7) they spread diseases.
Thankfully, there are ways of dealing (8) these problems. For example, people use Trombe walls—strong structures of concrete(混凝土), stone and other heavy materials. They take in (9) (hot) during the day and let it out at night. Another example is special roofs that can stand better in wind. These roofs might be stronger and more common due to global warming.
By changing how we look at and make buildings, we can be more prepared (10) (live) in a warmer world.

(1)a
(2)cutting
(3)really
(4)today's
(5)wetter
(6)problems
(7)because
(8)with
(9)heat
(10)to live

(1) 根据语境，这里指建筑物也是一个大问题，“一个”用冠词a/an，big以辅音音素开头，所以用a。
(2) of是介词，后面接动词 -ing形式，cut的 -ing形式是cutting。
(3) 这里要用副词修饰动词fight，real的副词形式是really。
(4) 修饰名词buildings要用名词所有格或形容词，today的形容词是today’s，表示“今天的”。
(5) and连接并列成分，前面是hotter是比较级，wet也要用比较级wetter。
(6) more后面接可数名词复数形式，problem的复数是problems。
(7) 前后句是因果关系，用because连接。
(8) deal with是固定短语，意为“处理，应对”。
(9) 动词take in后面接名词，hot的名词是heat。
(10) be prepared to do sth.是固定用法，意为“准备做某事”，所以用to live。

### 四、词汇运用
请认真阅读下面的短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
建筑物在我们的生活中是一个重要的部分。然而，当涉及到全球变暖时，建筑物也是一个大问题。
根据世界经济论坛的数据，建筑物及其建造占全球能源使用的40%，占碳排放的33%。
在建筑施工方面，有一些减少碳排放的方法。例如，使用可回收和低碳的建筑材料会有所帮助。然而，为了真正对抗全球变暖，人们需要找到建造建筑物的新方法。尽管如今的建筑物可以应对温度变化，比如桥梁在炎热的日子里可以“伸展”，但它们无法永远适应一个更热、更潮湿的世界。
与此同时，更高的平均气温给建筑物带来了更多的问题。会有更多的蚂蚁和蚊子。更多的蚂蚁会啃食更多的木材并损坏建筑物。更多的蚊子意味着不安全的居住场所，因为它们会传播疾病。
值得庆幸的是，有一些方法可以解决这些问题。例如，人们使用特朗勃墙——由混凝土、石头和其他重型材料构成的坚固结构。它们在白天吸收热量，在晚上释放热量。另一个例子是特殊的屋顶，它们能更好地抵御大风。由于全球变暖，这些屋顶可能会更坚固、更常见。
通过改变我们看待和建造建筑物的方式，我们可以更好地准备在一个更温暖的世界里生活。
