Solution:

In adiabatic process, no heat enters or leaves the system. The system is completely insulated from its surroundings. From first law of thermodynamics, change in internal energy,

.

Since the work is done at the expense of internal energy, therefore internal energy of the system decreases and hence temperature of the gas falls.
