【推荐2】阅读下面短文, 在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。并将答案填写在答题卡上。

When it comes to cacti (仙人掌), we usually think of them living in very dry environments like deserts. However, the plant can now be seen in some Alpine regions of Switzerland and Italy - mountain areas     1     used to be covered by snow.

“In some parts of Valais, we estimate that the cacti can take     2     one-third of the surface,” Yann Triponez, a biologist working in Valais, Switzerland said. Although the plant     3     (be) present in the local area since the late 18th century, recent     4     (discover) showed that cacti are growing faster than usual. “When you have these cacti, nothing else grows,” Triponez said, stating that the plant     5     (cover) the soil and prevents other plants from taking root.

A warmer climate in Alpine areas can be seen     6     a reason for the change. The warming climate has been reducing snow coverage in the area,     7     (give) more soil for the cacti to grow on.

Botanist (植物学家) Peter Oliver Baumgartner told The Guardian that     9     people may have the impression that cacti prefer hot climates, they can live in temperatures as low as-15C. Baumgartner also called on more attention     10     (pay) to local biodiversity since Valais has about two-thirds of the total plant species in Switzerland.
