17、onal University of Singapore.45 percent of the species studied now reach smaller adult sizes than they did in the past. The researchers point out that warmer temperatures and changing habitats, caused by climate change, are possible reasons for the shrinking of creatures.We do not yet know the exact

18、 mechanisms involved, or why some organisms are getting smaller while others are unaffected, the researchers said. Until we understand more, we could be risking negative consequences that we cant yet quantify.The change was big in cold-blooded animals. Only two decades of warmer temperatures were en

19、ough to make reptiles(爬行动物) smaller. An increase of only 1 caused nearly a 10 percent increase in metabolism(新陈代谢). Greater use of energy resulted in tiny tortoises and little lizards. Fish are smaller now too. Though overfishing has played a part in reducing numbers, experiments show that warmer te

20、mperatures also stop fish growth. There is a recent report on warmer temperatures negative effects on plankton(浮游生物),the base of the marine ecosystem.Warm-blooded animals werent immune from the size change caused by climate change. Many birds are now smaller; Mammals have been miniaturized too. Soay

21、 sheep are thinner. Red deer are weaker. And polar bears are smaller, compared with historical records. This isnt the first time this has happened in Earths history.55 million years ago, a warming event similar to the current climate change caused bees, spiders and ants to shrink by 50 to 75 percent

22、 over several thousand years. That event happened over a longer time than the current climate change.The speed of modern climate change could mean organisms may not respond or adapt quickly enough, especially those with long generation times. So, it is likely that more negative influences of climate

25、s sizes have been doneD.climate change has more negative effects on warm-blooded animals39What can we learn from the passage?A.Climate change has even affected plankton negatively.B.Birds have suffered more from climate change than fish.C.Cold-blooded animals become smaller because of the lack of fo

26、od.D.The warming event has never happened in Earths history before.The Pew report-which was based on surveys carried out in Britain, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Greece, Poland and the Czech Republic - concluded that the European Union was “ the new sick man of Europe”.The percentage of Europeans

27、with a favorable view of the EU has plunged from 60 percent last year to 45 percent now.The UK may be considered the most Eurosceptic(欧洲怀疑论者)country, but its support for the union has barely changed in the past 12 months, slipping only two points to 43 percent.By contrast, Frances backing for the EU

28、 has slipped sharply, from 60 percent last year to 41 percent today.On the question of whether to remain in the EU, 46 percent of the British want to leave the union and surprisingly, the same percentage went to stay.The Pew reports authors said, “The long-drawn economic crisis has created bad force

29、s that are pulling European public opinion apart, separating the French from the Germans and Germans from everyone else.”They added, “The effort over the past half century to create a more united Europe is now the main disaster of the euro crisis.
