A new study on climate change says catastrophic（灾难的） 4 degree rise in global temperature is increasingly（建增地） likely to occur within many people's lifetimes. The studies have been compiled（汇编，编辑） by one of the world's leading research bodies monitoring（监控） climate change, the Hadley Centre in Britain. Paul Harper reports. This latest prediction（预测） from the Hadley Centre brings the prospect（前景，期望） of devastating（毁灭性的，灾难性的; 惊人的，可怕的; 迷人的; 强大的） change much closer. He challenges（挑战） the assumption（假定，假设; 想当然）that severe（严重的） warming is a threat（威胁） only for future generations. A four degree average temperature rise by the 2050s would bring increases of 10 degrees or more in some areas such as the Arctic（北极） and Africa. It could mean a sharp decline in rainfall in some areas, flooding in others and extinction of about half of all the world's animal and plant species.
