The climate we live in affects many areas
of our lives. 15． A
warmer world would be a sicker world.
Climate researchers predict that the world
climate will become warmer. High temperatures in summer is becoming more frequent
and very cold winters more rare. With winters becoming warmer, there are likely
to be up to 20, 000 fewer cold-related deaths. However, there is a danger that bacteria
would no longer die off seasonally during the cold period. 16．
More heat waves may increase the number
of hot-weather related deaths by up to 2, 800. They could cause an extra 5, 000
deaths a year from skin cancer and may cause an increase of up to 2, 000 cases of
eye diseases. 17．
Higher average global temperatures mean
that diseases, or their carriers, may be able to move to areas that were too cold
for them to survive at an earlier time. It's possible that a warm type of malaria
(疟疾)
will appear in some parts of the world and be a seasonal danger for up to four months
each year. 18． They
will cause damage to our homes, food, and water supplies and then affect our health.
19． Those
living in poor and developing countries are going to be less able to adapt to changes.
Health effects are not likely to be limited to the human population, and wildlife
would also be seriously affected.
A. It means that diseases may spread more
widely.
B. Therefore, climate changes for the same
period.
C. It's no secret that human activity is
changing the climate.
D. Climate change is likely to have different
effects on the world population.
E. Globally, there are likely to be more
floods, more droughts, and more storms.
F. Warmer summers may cause up to 10, 000
extra cases of food poisoning (中毒) each year.
G. The food we eat, the water we drink,
and our homes are all dependent upon our climate and weather.
