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【C1】______ 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【C2】______ in India, France and China compared with【C3】______ they probably would have been without rising【C4】______, according to the study.
Corn yields were【C5】______ a few percentage points in China, Brazil and France from what would have been【C6】______, said the researchers, whose findings were published in Friday’s【C7】______ of the journal Science.
Some countries saw small gains from the temperature increases, however. And in all countries, the【C8】______ carbon dioxide that humans are【C9】______ into the air acted as a【C10】______ that encouraged plant growth,【C11】______ some of the losses from rising temperatures caused by that same greenhouse gas.
【C12】______, the study’s authors found that when the gains in some countries were weighed【C13】______ the losses in other countries, the overall global【C14】______ of climate change has been small so far: losses of a few percentage points for wheat and corn from what they would have been【C15】______ climate change. The general impact on production of rice and soybeans was【C16】______, with gains in some regions entirely counterbalancing losses in others.

选项
A、volume
B、publication
C、issue
D、column
答案
C
解析
词义辨析题。他们的调查结果会刊登在周五那一期的《科学》杂志上,需要在空白处填一个名词,表示刊物的某一期,所以选issue。volume指书的册或卷;publication指出版物或出版;column指报纸的专栏,所以均不符合该题的语境。
