　　(改编自江苏省常州市第一中学、江阴南菁高中2016届高三两校联考)Today the scientific community is in almost total agreement that the earth’s climate is changing and that this represents a huge threat to the planet and to us. According to a survey, with only 69% accepting the earth is warming— only 1 in 4 Americans see global warming as a major threat, public opinion ___1___ the scientific conclusion.

　　Climate scientists and campaigners have long debated how to better communicate the message to non-experts so that climate science can be ___2___ into action. According to Christopher Rapley, the usual tactic(策略)of climate experts to provide the public with information isn’t ___3___ because “it does not address key potential causes.” We are all exposed to the evidence of climate change on an almost a daily basis. The information is almost

　　___4___.

　　Then what’s wrong? ___5___ our brains.

　　Daniel Gilbert mentioned our brains’ failure to accurately notice gradual change. Robert Gifford also ___6___ the point about our brains’ difficulty in grasping climate change because of limited cognition and social ___7___ with other people (“Why should we change if X won’t?”) “A more powerful barrier is the ___8___ of perceived(感知的)behavioral control; ‘I’ m only one person; what can I do ?’ is certainly a big one. For many, the first challenge will be in recognizing barriers ___9___ they can overcome them”

　　But for those of us who understand that climate change is a problem yet make little effort to cut the number of overseas trips we make or the amount of meat we consume, neither the uncaring attitude nor denial really explains the ___10___ between our actions and beliefs. Lertzman has come to the conclusion that the conflict between ___11___ both the planet and our way of life is too painful to bear. “When we don’t ___12___ the pain of that, that’s when we get ___13___ and can’t move forward.” Lertzman refers to this ___14___ as “environmental melancholia(忧郁症),” and points out that there’s a lot to be said for providing a means ___15___ acceptable to talk about.”

　　Rosemary Randall suggests that climate change is such a(n) ___16___ subject that it “can raise fears and anxieties that people feel have no ___17___ in polite conversation.”

　　Lertzman says the community has been slow to realize the value of psychology. Gifford says otherwise, ___18___—“ climate change, and not mental health, is the biggest psychological problem.”

　　Despite the pain, shame, difficulty in fully addressing climate change, both Lertzman and Gifford are still

　　___19___ about our ability to face up to the challenge. “There can’t be anything about the human mind that stops us struggling with these issues, given that so many people ___20___ are—maybe that’s what we should be focusing on instead.” says Lertzman.
