四、(原创)任务型阅读(每小题3分, 共15分)

Birds have reached their summer breeding grounds about one day earlier per degree of increasing global temperatures. The researchers studied hundreds of species across five continents.

Reaching their summer breeding grounds at the wrong time—even by a few days—may cause birds to miss out their important resources such as food and nesting places. Late arrival to breeding grounds may, in turn, affect the timing of offspring(后代) hatching and their chances of survival.

The researchers have examined records of migrating bird species dating back almost 300 years. The study will help scientists know how different species may respond to future environmental change.

26～27题完成句子；28题简略回答问题；29题找出并写下全文的主题句；30题将文中画线句子译成汉语。

26. Migrating birds are arriving at their breeding grounds earlier as

____________________.

27. If the birds reach breeding grounds at the wrong time , it causes birds to

____________________. 28. What will happen if they arrive later?
