Pertanyaan

Choose a, b, c, d, or e for the correct answer.

In recent years, global warming has been the subject of a great deal of political controversy. As scientific knowledge has grown, this debate is moving away from whether humans are causing warming and toward questions of how best to respond.

Signs that the Earth is warming are recorded all over the globe. The easiest way to see increasing temperatures is through the thermometer records kept over the past century and a half. Around the world, the Earth's average temperature has risen more than 1 degree Fahrenheit (0.8 degrees Celsius) over the last century, and about twice that in parts of the Arctic.

This doesn't mean that temperatures haven't fluctuated among regions of the globe or between seasons and times of day. However, if you average out the temperature all over the world over the course of a year, you see that temperatures have been creeping upward.

Pembahasan

Terjemahan soal tersebut adalah "Di Kutub Utara, suhu naik sekitar ____ selama satu abad terakhir". Jawaban dapat ditemukan dengan melihat pada kutipan kalimat " Around the world, the Earth's average temperature has risen more than 1 degree Fahrenheit (0.8 degrees Celsius) over the last century, and about twice that in parts of the Arctic ." (Paragraf 2) Berdasarkan kalimat tersebut, dapat diketahui bahwa di seluruh dunia, telah terjadi kenaikan suhu sebesar 1 derajat Fahrenheit (0.8 derajat Celsius) selama se-abad terakhir, dan sekitar dua kali lipat di beberapa bagian Kutub Utara". Jadi, kenaikan suhu di Arctic (Kutub Utara) selama satu abad terakhir adalah: 2 × 0.8 derajat Celsius = 1.6 derajat Celsius Jadi, jawaban yang tepat adalah D. 1.6 degree Celsius
