2、ia forests, the new study finds.No area was spared or unaffected, from the foggy northern coast to the Sierra Nevada Mountains to the San Gabriels above Los Angeles.In the Sierra high country, the number of big trees has fallen by more than 55 percent; in parts of southern California the decline was
3、 nearly 75 percent.Many factors contributed to the decline, said Patrick McIntyre, an ecologist who was the lead author of the study.Woodcutters targeted big trees.Housing development pushed into the woods.Aggressive wildfire control has left California forests crowded with small trees that compete
4、with big trees for resources.But in comparing a study of California forests done in the 1920s and 1930s with another one between 2001 and 2010, McIntyre and his colleagues documented a widespread death of big trees that was evident even in wildlands protected from woodcutting or development.The loss
5、 of big trees was greatest in areas where trees had suffered the greatest water shortage.The researchers figured out water stress with a computer model that calculated how much water trees were getting in comparison with how much they needed, taking into account such things as rainfall, air temperat
6、ure, dampness of soiL and the timing of snowmelt(融雪).Since the 1930s, McIntyre said, the biggest factors driving up water stress in the state have been rising temperatures, which cause trees to lose more water to the air, and earlier snowmelt, which reduces the water supply available to trees during

9、cutters, housing development 与 aggressive wildfire controlo 前两个因素直接与大树的减 少有关,如果能控制住,大树就不会减少;而第三个因素控制野火的措施使得加利福尼 亚州的森林里满是跟大树争夺资源的小树,初衷是为了控制野火,这是好的,实那么对大树不 利。故D项正确。3. What is a major cause of the water shortage according to McIntyre? CA. Inadequate snowmelt.B. A longer dry season.C. A warmer climate.D
10、. Dampness of the air.解析:细节理解题。根据文章最后一段中的.the biggest factors driving up water stress in the state have been rising temperatures”可知,水缺乏的主要原因就是气温升高(rising temperatures),即更加温暖的气候。故C项正确。4.
