Humans are taller and taller, while sme animals becme smaller. Is it a strange fact? A study fund 52 kinds f birds have becme smaller. “This is because f climate(气候) change,” said the scientists wh did the study.
The shrinking(萎缩) in size fllws a rule in nature called Bergmann’s Rule. The rule says that animals in cler areas are usually larger than thse in warmer areas. Large animals are able t keep warm in cld weather. That’s why animals in cld areas are larger.
As glbal warming affects(影响) the Earth, animals have t deal with rising temperatures. Sme f them becme smaller. This came t light when scientists studied ver 70,000 kinds f birds ver a 38-year perid. They discvered sme cmmn birds were shrinking in size. Studies n deer, insects and fish als shwed similar results.
What des this mean fr these animals? Of curse the Earth has been thrugh cycles f warming and cling. And many animals have changed t keep up with the changes f the envirnment in rder t survive(幸存). The difference is nw the cycle is happening faster than befre. S, animals may nt be able t change fast enugh.
Besides, when animals becme smaller, ther things will get affected. When an animal’s bdy is smaller, it may nt be able t give birth t as many yung babies as befre. This may affect the ppulatin. Water dependent animals like frgs may dry ut faster during the drught(干旱). As they becme smaller, their ability t hld water may weaken.
It is pssible that scientists haven’t yet fully understd hw changes in size may affect the ability f animals t survive. This shws the bigger prblem with climate change — we are nt always able t knw what will happen when the Earth’s temperature keeps rising. And this is the real danger.
28. The writer mentins a study in the first paragraph t _______.
A. intrduce a subjectB. slve a mysteryC. discuss a prgram
29. What d we knw frm Paragraph 2?
A. Animals living in warm places are usually big.
B. Animals living in cld places are usually small.
C. The larger the animal is, the better it will keep warm.
30. What might happen when sme animals becme smaller?
①Their ability t survive may be affected.
②They can’t give birth t yung babies.
③They may have fewer babies than befre.
④Their ppulatins may fall.
A. ①②③ B. ①③④C. ①②④
31. What’s the writer’s attitude(态度) twards the rising temperature?
A. The writer is wrried.B. The writer welcmes it.C. The writer thinks it’s fine.
