Looking at evidence of climate change
Yama Dixit and David Hodell have found the first definitive evidence of climate change affecting the plains of north-western India thousands of years ago. By collecting the【R32】______of snails and analysing them, they discovered evidence of a change in water levels in a【R33】______in the region. This occurred when there was less【R34】______than evaporation, and suggests that there was an extended period of drought.
Petrie and Singh’s team are using archaeological records to look at【R35】______from five millennia ago, in order to know whether people had adapted their agricultural practices to changing climatic conditions. They are also examining objects including【R36】______, so as to find out about links between inhabitants of different parts of the region and whether these changed over time.
【R34】
选项
答案rainfall
解析 题目：这种现象会在……少于蒸发的时候出现，并意味着干旱期将延长。与上题的关系紧密，提到研究观察到4100年前(湖泊的水位)有一次剧烈的变化，当时湖泊内水源的蒸发量超过了降雨量，意味着干旱的出现；A exceeded B等同于there was less B than A，indicative of a drought替换了suggests there was．．．drought。因此答案为rainfall。
