Global warming is already cutting substantially into potential crop yields in some countries—to such an extent that it may be a factor in the food price increases that have caused worldwide stress in recent years, researchers suggest in a new study. Wheat yields in recent years were down by more than 10 percent in Russia and by a few percentage points each in India, France and China compared with what they probably would have been without rising 【C1】______, according to the study. Corn yields were off a few percentage points in China, Brazil and France from what would have been 【C2】______, said the researchers, whose findings were published in Friday’s 【C3】______ of the journal Science.
Some countries saw small gains from the temperature increases, however. And in all agricultural countries, the 【C4】______ carbon dioxide that humans are pumping into the air acted as a fertilizer that encouraged plant growth, 【C5】______ some of the losses from rising temperatures caused by that same greenhouse gas. The study’s authors, 【C6】______, found that when the gains in some countries were weighed against the losses in other countries, the overall global 【C7】______ of climate change has been small so far: losses of a few percentage points for wheat and corn from what they would have been without climate change. The general impact on production of rice and soybeans was 【C8】______, with gains in some regions entirely counterbalancing losses in others.
But the authors of the study pointed out that temperature increases were expected to 【C9】______ in coming decades, making it likely that the challenges to food production will grow in an era when demand is expected to 【C10】______ sharply. [br] 【C8】
选项
答案
H
解析
根据空格后的提示,可知一些地区稻米和大豆的收成和其他地区的损失相互抵消(entirely counterbalancing losses)。因此这种影响是很小的,选negligible“可忽略的,微不足道的”。既然下文已经明确指出收成和损失互相抵消,所以这种影响就是确定的,因此排除arguable“可争论的”。
