【解析】

試題分析：本文講述的是我們要不要對(duì)于碳污染“買單”。

【1】arguing考查動(dòng)詞時(shí)態(tài)。根據(jù)句意，此處表示“他們（正在）就……進(jìn)行爭(zhēng)辯”，應(yīng)該用一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)或現(xiàn)在進(jìn)行時(shí)。

【2】has 考查主謂一致。此句主語(yǔ)是Carbon pollution ，故謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞應(yīng)使用第三人稱單數(shù)形式has. have an impact on 為固定搭配，意為“對(duì)……有影響”。

【3】Throwing考查動(dòng)名詞。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知此處缺少主語(yǔ)，故用動(dòng)名詞。

【4】who 考查定語(yǔ)從句。此處引導(dǎo)定語(yǔ)從句修飾the people，且在后面的句子中作主語(yǔ)，故用who來(lái)引導(dǎo)定語(yǔ)從句。

【5】destructive考查形容詞。destructive破壞性的 句意：保險(xiǎn)率隨著暴風(fēng)雨的破壞程度加大而上升，get變得，連系動(dòng)詞，后面跟形容詞作表語(yǔ)。故用destructive.

【6】changes考查名詞單復(fù)數(shù)。population changes人口數(shù)量的變化，表示復(fù)數(shù)意義，故應(yīng)該使用可數(shù)名詞的復(fù)數(shù)形式。

【7】what考查名詞性從句。表語(yǔ)從句中缺少賓語(yǔ)，且指物，故用連接代詞what來(lái)引導(dǎo)表語(yǔ)從句。

【8】to limit考查非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞。force的后置定語(yǔ)常用不定式，market force 68 (limit) the pollution限制污染的市場(chǎng)推動(dòng)力。

【9】really 考查副詞。修飾謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞，應(yīng)該用real的副詞形式really.

【10】the考查冠詞。companies特指那些靠化石燃料盈利的公司，因此用the表示特指”。
