Q19:

Possible long-term consequences of the “greenhouse effect,” the gradual warming of the Earth’s climate, may include melting the polar ice caps and a rising sea level.

may include melting the polar ice caps and a rising sea level

may include the melting of polar ice caps and the rising sea level

may include polar ice caps that are melting and sea levels that are rising

include melting the polar ice caps and sea levels that are rising

include melting of the polar ice caps and a rise in sea level

答案给的是E，但我有个疑问：当动词变为名词形式时不是需要在其动名词前加the吗？而E中显然没有。请NN解释！

i don't know either. and why delete the
"may"?

首先句首有possible,那么划线部分再用may的话语义重复；

其次，划线部分melting和sea level不能并列。所以D错。

至于melting前面是否加the，要看情况，不能一概而论。具体请参考以前的帖子：
