解析试题分析：这篇短文表达的是地处印度洋的世界海拔最低的国家——马尔代夫，由于全球变暖而面临在100年内被海水淹没而消失。因此，近年来世界上大批游客蜂拥至此。马尔代夫国家政府和人民在为本国人民的未来谋求出路，但它的命运掌握在全世界人民的手里。我们应该思考，怎样才是真正帮助这个小国。
【小题1】B考查名词及语境的理解。Scientists科学家；tourists游客； presidents总统； doctors医生。根据前句“马尔代夫是世界上最美丽的国家之一。”逻辑上自然会是“每年，数百万游客去那里欣赏美丽的风景。”因此，答案选B。
【小题2】C考查疑问词及语境的理解。Who谁；How怎样；Why为什么；When什么时候。前句“在最近几年，越来越多的人想要去参观”，后句“因为这个小小的岛国……”，根据前后句的逻辑意思，可知选C。
【小题3】A考查词组意思及语境的理解。in trouble有麻烦，困境中；for ever永远；as usual像平常一样；all right没关系，好的。根据后句的意思“科学家说，如果发生全球变暖，这个国家将会在100年内下沉到大洋里。”因此，可以判断这个国家将会有麻烦了。故选A。
【小题4】B考查动词及语境的理解。Disappears消失；happens发生；misses丢失，思念；continues继续。本句意思是“科学家说，如果发生全球变暖，这个国家将会在100年内下沉到大洋里。”根据句意可知选B。
【小题5】C考查情态动词及语境的理解。Can能，会；should应该；might可能，会；must必须，一定。对于这个岛国会不会在2100年前消失，我们不能作出非常肯定的判断，只能作假设。本句的意思是“那意味着马尔代夫可能会在2100年前就已经消失了。”这是一种虚拟语气的表达方式。答案是C。
【小题6】B考查动词及语境的理解。 Lives生活，居住；lies位于，躺； jumps跳；arrives到达。根据本句的意思应该是“马尔代夫位于印度洋里。”lie可以表示国家、城市、村庄、学校等地方的位置。故选B。
【小题7】C 考查形容词及语境的理解。Highest最高的；high高的； lowest最低的；low低。本句的后半部分提供了解释“它的最高点只有海拔2.4米。”可知前句应该是“它是地球上最低的国家。”故选C。
【小题8】B考查词组意思及语境的理解。Instead of代替；Because of因为；With the help of借助于……；Thanks for因……而感谢。前半句Greenhouse gas emissions的意思是“温室气体排放”，后句的意思是“到2100年，全球的气温和海平面将会上升9-88cm”。两句之间的逻辑关系应该是因果关系。因此选B。
【小题9】D考查介词及语境的理解。Both两个都；from从……；during在……其间；between在……（两者）之间。本句的意思是“……在9至88cm之间。”both 9cm and 88cm“9cm和88cm都”; from 后搭配to; between 9cm and 88cm“在9cm和88cm之间”符合句子意思。故选D 。
【小题10】B考查形容词及语境的理解。Wrong错误的；correct正确的；helpful有帮助的； dangerous危险的。本句的意思是“如果科学家的话是……的，那么这些年后马尔代夫的大部分地方将会被水覆盖。”根据意思可知选B。
【小题11】C考查动词及语境的理解。Get得到，获得；guess猜，猜出；realize认识到，意识到；expect期待。全句比较长，held the world’s first underwater cabinet meeting这部分的意思是“召开了世界上第一次水底内阁会议”，the terrible results from global warming to their own country这部分的意思是“由全球变暖而给他们自己的国家带来的恶劣后果”。那这次会议要使全世界“认识到”这一点。根据句意得出选C。
【小题12】B 考查动词及语境的理解。Served服务，服侍； spoke讲话；worked工作； sang歌唱。本句意思是“十二月，他（总统）在哥本哈根召开的联合国2009年度世界气候变化大会上讲话，”故选B。
【小题13】A考查物主代词。His他的；their他们的；its它的；your你的。句意是“……试图呼吁世界对他的国家提供帮助。”因此选A。
【小题14】C考查名词及语境的理解。Task任务； problem问题； plan计划； notice注意。本句意思是“总统甚至有一个……要买一个新的家园，把他的国家和人民搬迁到一个新的地方。”由此得知此处可以填“计划”。故选C。
【小题15】D考查名词及语境的理解。Tourists游客；place地方； island 岛屿； sea海洋。本句意思是“马尔代夫政府一直在做他们力所能及的一切事来战胜海洋。”而不是战胜其它的东西。故选D。
