C As levels of carbon dioxide CO2 in the atmosphere have been rising in recent decades, Earth has been warming. Thats because as a greenhouse
26、gas, CO2 traps heat in Earths atmosphere. That warming is one symptom of climate change. And it has the potential to affect food in many ways. Data now show that rising levels of CO2 also can affect how nutritious a crop will be. Some of those data were reported last year in Annual Review of Public
27、Health. Indeed, it noted that several studies have come to this conclusion. Samuel Myers is an environmental health scientist at Harvard University in Cambridge, Mass. He was part of a team that has studied the potential effects of climate change on nutrition. In one 2014 study, his group looked at
28、six major food crops: wheat, rice, field peas, soybeans, maize(corn)and sorghum. They exposed plants to different amounts of CO2. Some got levels of between 363 and 386 parts per million (ppm), which were typical at that time. (CO2 levels have since risen.)Other plants were exposed to more of that g
29、reenhouse gas as they grew 546 to 586 ppm. Such levels are expected to develop within the next 50 years or so. After harvesting the plants, the researchers measured their levels of vitamins, minerals and other nutrients. And plants grown with more CO2 were less nutritious. Most people depend on cere
30、al crops, such as wheat and rice, to meet their dietary needs for both zinc and iron. If crop levels of such nutrients fall, people may face an even greater risk of falling ill. Scientists dont yet know why CO2 impacts levels of these nutrients. But the new findings suggest scientists may want to tr

34、e future? A. Indifferent. B. Doubtful. C. Negative. D. Positive. D Weve all been told to dress warmly or well catch cold. But science says the common cold is caused by the virus, not the weather. Actually, according to researchers at Yale University, there just might be something to this old wives t
35、ale. For decades, researchers have known that the virus replicates(复制)more readily in cooler environments, such as the nose, rather than at the warmer core body temperature. The reason for this, explains Ellen Foxman, an assistant professor at Yale University School of Medicine, long remained a myst
36、ery. Scientists didnt know whether the virus itself worked better at colder temperatures, or the immune system worked worse. “No one could find anything,” she says. Then Foxman and her colleagues studied whats called the born immune system, which is present in every cell, and how it responds to vari
37、ous temperatures when the virus is present. In the lab, they examined airway cells from mice and found that the immune system produced fewer chemical substances called interferons at lower temperatures, allowing the cold virus to flourish. In a study published this year, they found supporting result
38、s in human cells: At the warmer core body temperature, born immune systems that block viral growth are more active, and can stop and kill viruses. Now the team is trying to better understand the defenses the body uses to prevent the virus. While wearing a scarf around your nose to warm it up might h
39、elp prevent a cold, Foxman recommends washing your hands so you dont pass the virus to your eyes, nose, or mouth in the first place. “If the virus isnt in your nose, it cant cause infection,” she says. 32. What does the underlined sentence in the first paragraph mean? A. Listen to the elders. B. The

For those who want to increase the chance of success, 36 Set goals in January(or on you
43、r birthday). Academic research shows both New Years Day and birthdays are good times to start change. Because both mark a new start, they help us “wipe the slate clean,” said Katherine Milkman. “We explain that it was the old me who failed, but this year will be different”. 37 Set specific, realisti
44、c goals. People often set themselves up for failure by choosing goals that are too vague or extreme for example, to “save more”. If a goal requires you to remove things you enjoy, you may feel depressed and lose the ability to stick to it. 38 For example, “I will increase my savings rate from 5% to
