But rising levels of carbon dioxide (CO2) in
8、 the air have reduced the protein in pollen. Thats what a new study finds. Scientists compared recently collected flowers from Canada goldenrod. Then they compared pollen in them to pollen in goldenrod reserved at a museum in Washington DC. They found todays plants have less protein. Protein levels
9、in pollen from the older flowers were 18 percent. Todays goldenrod pollen has only about 12 percent protein. Thats about one-third less than 172 years ago. Over that same period, CO2 levels have gone up by more than one-third. Back more than 170 years ago, they were about 280 parts per million in ai
10、r. Today they are about 398 ppm. To test whether CO2 changes had played a role in the falling protein levels, the researchers did some tests. They grew goldenrod for two years at CO2 levels of up to 500 ppm. More CO2 in the air led to lower levels of protein in the flowers pollen. Joan Edwards, one
11、of the researchers, says that this drop in pollen protein could affect a bees diet and health. It would be like eating junk food, tasting good but offering less nutrition (营养). Honeybees need to eat lots of protein. They use it to feed their young. They also need it to keep their immune systems heal
12、thy, says Cdric Alaux, a bee biologist at the French agricultural research agency. Bee populations have been decreasing worldwide in recent years. A drop in their food quality might play a role, Edwards says. And that drop might affect crops too. “The health of the bee population is not just for the
13、 flowers and the bees and biodiversity. ” She worries it also could play a role in “human health and well-being”. 【文章大意】这是一篇说明文。一项新的研究发现, 空气中二氧化碳含量的上升降低了花粉中的蛋白质含量, 这会影响蜜蜂的饮食和健康, 从而导致蜜蜂种群的减少。1.

According to the text, Jo
15、an Edwards might agree that _.
