A new study says the speed and severity of climate change could cause major damage to small African farms. These farmers are already struggling to deal with the effects of climate change. The study was released at the African green revolution forum in Addis Ababa. It is called the African Agriculture Status Report.
Small-scale farmers are the major support for African agriculture. About 70-percent of the rural populations in sub-Saharan Africa are small-scale farmers. They produce about 80-percent of the food need in Africa.
About 90-precent of these farms are rain-fed, which means that they depend on the weather. Weather is rainfall. Weather is drought Weather is an increase in temperature. They are more exposed to these climate effects than any other part of the world. On top of that most of them use their own labor or family labor. They are not mechanized.
The report says farmers in sub-Saharan Africa are also dealing with rising temperatures. This major rise in temperature brings a lot of issues to Africa food security. It is going to affect reduction in yield, increase invulnerability to harmful insects and diseases that will kill most of the domestic animals.
5. What will cause serious damage to small African farms?
6. What do we learn about African agriculture from the news report?
7. What will rising temperatures affect the farmers’ life?
选项
A、The African green revolution forum.
B、The speed and severity of climate change.
C、Death of most of the domestic animals.
D、The African Agriculture Status Report.
答案
B
解析
新闻开头提到了一项新研究,该研究称气候变化的速度和严重程度(speed and severity of climate change)可能会对非洲小农户造成重大破坏,B完全复现原文,为答案。C“大多数牲畜死亡”出现在新闻最后部分,是气候变化对非洲农户造成的后果。A、D都有在新闻中提到,但这两项答非所问,与问题无关。
