　　Whether you live in Seattle or the Sahara desert, the time has come to invest in a good raincoat or umbrella, a new study suggests.
　　As global temperatures continue to rise, more “extreme rain” events --- intense, cats-and-dogs downpour --- can be expected, said the study, published Monday in the journal Nature Climate Change. And that, scientists said, means an increased flood risk, particularly for the world’s driest areas. The study challenges the idea that global warming is causing dry areas to become drier and wet areas wetter.
　　“In both wet and dry regions, we see these great increases in heavy precipitation (冰雹) ,” lead author Markus Donat, a climate scientist at the University of New South Wales, told Nature.
　　Donat and his team collected data from 1951 to 2010 on extreme precipitation events from 11, 000 weather stations around the world, Nature reported. In that time, the number of days with “extreme precipitation” increased 1 percent to 2 percent per decade.
　　“We found a strong relationship between global warming and an increase in rainfall, particularly in areas outside of the tropics,” Donat said in a statement.
　　“Importantly, this research suggests we will see these extreme rainfall events increases at regional levels in dry areas, not just as an average across the globe,” Donat added.
　　Peter Stott, a senior climate scientist at Met Office, told Climate Central that the study’s findings are important, because more violent rainfall and flooding will “challenge our capability to adapt to a rapidly changing climate.”
　　As Nature reported, the research aligns (结盟) with a 2015 study that found global warming has led to a sharp increase in record-breaking precipitation events. Donat told Nature that his study should come as a warning to world governments.
　　1．Which of the following is one of the study’s findings?
　　A. Global warming is causing dry areas to become drier and wet areas wetter.
　　B. Extreme rain events can be expected at regional levels in dry areas.
　　C. Extreme rainfall events increase at regional levels in wet areas.
　　D. Rainfall increases particularly in the tropics areas.
　　2．Why does Scott think the findings are important?
　　A. The research aligns with a 2015 study.
　　B. They are about extreme precipitation events.
　　C. They remind us to adjust to rapid climate changes.
　　D. The study involves many famous climate scientists.
　　3．The purpose of the study is to ______.
　　A. encourage investors to start business in Seattle or the Sahara desert
　　B. persuade people to take a raincoat or an umbrella with them
　　C. challenge the previous findings of research on climate
　　D. warn world governments to focus on global warming

　　He Made It!
　　One Sunday, Gavin, a teenager, went skiing at Sugarloaf Mountain in Maine. In the early afternoon, when he was planning to go home, a fierce snowstorm swept into the area. Unable to see far, he accidentally turned off the path. Before he knew it, Gavin was lost, all alone! He didn’t have food, water, a phone, or other supplies. He was getting colder by the minute.
　　Gavin had no idea where he was. He tried not to panic. He thought about all of the survival shows he had watched on TV. It was time to put the tips he had learned to use.
　　He decided to stop skiing. There was a better chance of someone finding him if he stayed out. The first thing he did was to find shelter from the freezing wind and snow. If he didn’t, his body temperature would get very low, which could quickly kill him.
　　Using his skis, Gavin built a snow cave. He gathered a huge mass of snow and dug out a hole in the middle. Then he piled branches on top of himself, like a blanket, to stay as warm as he could.
　　By that evening, Gavin was really hungry. He ate snow and drank water from a nearby stream so that his body wouldn’t lose too much water. Not knowing how much longer he could last, Gavin did the only thing he could --- he huddled (蜷缩) in his cave and slept.
