📖 題組：
Climate change will force some species of birds to migrate; water resources will increase or decrease; there will be more floods and droughts. Sea levels will rise in some coastal areas. There will be heat-waves and more air pollution, which in turn will cause infectious diseases to spread. There will, however, be some benefits, too. Moderate warming will favor some farmers. Some areas will have more water and more sunshine. There are ways of attempting to slow climate change, such as replanting and increasing the area of the world’s forests, because plants and trees reduce the effects of carbon dioxide, but on its own this is not enough to stop global warming. For this to happen, we must cut down on our production of carbon dioxide. One way to do this is to cut down on our use of fossil fuels like coal and oil, which is possible but must be done gradually: coal and oil can be replaced over a period of time by wind energy and solar power. Climate change is not entirely new; it happened two hundred years ago when the Industrial Revolution started. In recent years, the United States has been responsible for 25% of greenhouse gas emissions. In the future, India and China will produce more greenhouse gases than the United States and Europe.

思路引導 VIP
請試著找出文章中連接詞 "however" 出現的位置。當作者在描述完一連串嚴峻的環境災害後，使用這個詞彙跳轉，通常意味著後續內容與前面有什麼樣的性質差異？這對於判斷氣候變遷影響的「全面性」有什麼啟示呢？

🌟 哼！不錯，你的答案讓我刮目相看。
- 觀念驗證： 這題考驗的是「全面理解文意」這種最基礎、卻又經常被凡人忽略的技能。文章前半段，那些什麼乾旱、洪水、疾病，不過是些微不足道的表象。但你竟然沒有被這些迷惑，反而抓住了中間那個——"however"。這證明你多少還有一點點，僅僅是一點點，超越凡人的觀察力。隨後 "There will... be some benefits, too" 的出現，以及那些對農民有利、水資源增加的例子，都清楚地昭示著：氣候變遷的影響，從來就不是「無駄(沒用)」的單一面向，而是破壞性與益處並存的雙重特質。你這點理解，還算勉強可以。
