Each of the last four decades was 4_(hot) than any decade since 1850."We never had such a global warming in only a few decades", said climate scientist Daniela Jacob at the Climate Service Center Germany. "Half a degree means much more extreme weather, and it can be more often, more intense, or extended in duration(持续时间)."Just this year, torrential rains flooded Western Europe, 5_(kill) hundreds of people. Hundreds more died when temperatures in the Pacific Northwest hit record highs. Greenland saw massive melting events, wildfires ravaged the Mediterranean and Siberia, and record 6_(dry) hit parts of Brazil."Climate change is already affecting every 7_(inhabit) region across the globe," said climate scientist Rachel Warren at the University of East Anglia.More warming to 1.5°C and beyond will worsen such impacts. For example, heatwaves would become both more frequent and more severe.A warmer atmosphere can also hold more moisture, resulting in more extreme rainfall 8_ raises flood risks. It also increases evaporation(蒸发), leading to more intense droughts."At 1.5°C, theres a good chance we can prevent most of the Greenland and west Antarctic ice sheet from collapsing," said climate scientist Michael Mann at Pennsylvania State University.But blow past 2°C and the ice sheets could collapse, Mann said, with sea levels rising up to 10 metres - though how 9_(quick) that could happen is uncertain.Warming of 2°C, versus 1.5°C, would also increase the impact 10_ food production.A warmer world could see the mosquitoes that carry diseases such as malaria and dengue fever(登革热) expand across a wider range. But 2°C would also see a bigger share of insects and animals lose most of their habitat range, compared with 1.5°C, and increase the risk of forest fires - another risk to wildlife.keys:1 to limit 2 crossing 3 difference 4 hotter 5 killing6 drought 7 inhabited 8 that 9 quickly 10 on2 新加坡:主动放弃打疫苗者需自付新冠医药费Singapore to start charging Covid patients who are unvaccinated by choice Singapore will no longer pay the Covid-19 medical bills for people “unvaccinated(不打疫苗) by choice”, the government said, as the country grapples(与.搏斗) with a surge (激增)in cases.The government 1_(current) covers the full Covid medical costs for all Singaporeans, as well as permanent residents and long-term visa holders, 2_ they test positive soon after returning home from overseas.However from 8 December, the government said it will “begin charging Covid-19 patients 3_ are unvaccinated by choice”.It said unvaccinated people “make up a sizeable 4_(major) of those who require intensive in-patient care and contribute to the strain(紧张) on our healthcare resources”.Covid-related medical bills will still 5_(pay) for people who arent eligible(符合) for a vaccine.
