Questions 16 — 25 are based on the following passage.
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) was set up in 1988 to assessinformation on climate change and its impact. Its Third Assessment Report predicts globaltemperature rises by 2100 of between 1.4℃ and 5.8℃. Although the issue of the changingclimate is very complex and some changes are uncertain, temperature rises are expected toaffect countries throughout the world and have a knock-on effect with sea-level rises.
Scientists have argued about whether temperature rises are due to human activities ordue to natural changes in our environment. The IPCC announced in 2001 that “most of thewarming observed over the last 50 years is likely to be attributable to human activities”. Thiswas a more forceful statement than in1996 when the Second Assessment Report stated thatthere was a “discernible human influence on the climate” which was the first time they hadconcluded such a link. Many experts believe the faster the climate changes, the greater the riskwill be.
Key points of the projections for climate change globally include that by the second half ofthe 21st century, wintertime rainfall in the northern mid to high latitudes and Antarctica will rise,that meanwhile Australia, Central America and southern Africa are likely to see decreases inautumn precipitation, that some land areas in the tropics will see more rainfall, and that therewill generally be more hot days over land areas.
