35、,” Harvard President Drew Faust said during a meeting to announce the plan.

37、000 people signed up for the first MITx course.

43、g effects on food chains and ecosystems. Global warming is having a great effect on hundreds of plant and animal species around the world, changing some living patterns, scientists say. Increased carbon dioxide（CO2）in the air from burning coal and oil can have an effect on how plants produce oxygen,

44、 while higher temperatures and changeable rainfall patterns can change their patterns of growth. “Predicting species reaction to climate change is a major challenge in ecology,” said the researches of several U.S. universities. They said plants had been the key object of study because their reaction

45、 to climate change could have an effect on food chains and ecosystem services. The study, published on the Nature website, uses the findings from plant life cycle studies and experiments across four continents and 1,634 species. It found that some experiments had underestimated（低估）the speed of flowe

46、ring by 8.5 times and leafing by 4 times. “Across all species, the experiments under-predicted the speed of the advance for both leafing and flowering that results from temperature increases,” the study said. The design of future experiments may need to be improved to better predict how plants will

47、react to climate change, it said. Plants are necessary for life on the Earth. They are the base of the food chain, using photosynthesis（光合作用）to produce sugar from carbon dioxide and water. They let out oxygen which is needed by nearly every organism on the planet. Scientists believe the worlds avera

48、ge temperature has risen by about 0.8 since 1900, and nearly 0.2 every ten years since 1979. So far, efforts to cut emissions（排放）of planet-warming greenhouse gases are not seen as enough to prevent the Earth heating up beyond 2 this century a point scientists say will bring the danger of a changeabl
