第一段：Global warming is causing more than 300,000 deaths and about $125 billion in economic losses each year, according to a report by the Global Humanitarian Forum, an organization led by Kofi Annan, the former United Nations secretary general.

第二段：The report, to be released Friday, analyzed data and existing studies of health, disaster, population and economic trends. It found that human-influenced climate change was raising the global death rates from illnesses including malnutrition(营养不良) and heat-related health problems.

第三段：But even before its release, the report drew criticism from some experts on climate and risk, who questioned its methods and conclusions.

2. What do we learn about the Forum’s report from the passage

A) It was challenged by some climate and risk experience√

B) It aroused a lot of interest in the scientific circle（无中生有）

C) It was warmly received by environmentalists.（正好相反）

D) It caused a big stir in developing countries（无中生有）

第四段 Along with the deaths, the report said that the live of 325 million people, primarily in poor countries, were being seriously affected by climate change. It projected（预测）that the number would double by 2030.

第五段 Roger Pielke Jr., a political scientist at the University of Colorado, Boulder, who studies disaster trends, said the Forum's report was " a methodological embarrassment" because there was no way to distinguish deaths or economic losses related to human driven global warming amid the much larger losses resulting from the growth in populations and economic development in vulnerable (易受伤害的) regions. Dr. Pielke said that "climate change is an important problem requiring our utmost attention." But the report, he said, "will harm the cause for action on both climate change and disasters because it is so deeply flawed (有瑕疵的)"

3. What does Dr.Pielke say about the Forum’s report?

A) Its statistics look embarrassing.

B) It is invalid in terms of methodology.
