According to researchers, there is a 90 percent probability that by 2100 the minimum temperatures in the tropics and subtropical regions will be higher than the maximum so far recorded in those areas. The effect on crop-growing in those regions world be dire, according to the projections based on direct observations and data culled from 23 computer models on the planet’s evolving climate patterns. “The stresses on global food production from temperature alone are going to be huge and that doesn’t take into account water supplies stressed by the higher temperatures”, said David Battista, a University of Washington atmospheric sciences professor. In the tropics, the warmest temperatures will cut maize and rice harvests by 20 to 40 percent, the researchers said. The hotter weather will also reduce the moisture in the soil, cutting yields even further. Some three billion people, or half the world’s population currently live in tropical and sub-tropical regions, and their number is set to double by the end of the century. These regions stretch from northern India, southern China to much of Australia area all of Africa, and also extend from the southern United States to northern Argentina and southern Brazil. 09-10（A） 1 CBDCD 2 DBDAC 3 ACDBB 翻译（英译汉） 瑞典一项研究发现，在工作中受到不公正待遇时忍气吞声的男性职员患心脏病或死于该疾病的几率比公开表达不满的人高五倍。 斯德哥尔摩大学压力研究所开展的此项研究对2755名男性职员进行了跟踪调查。这些职员在1992年至2003年间无心脏病史。
