This enables it to identify areas where availability of water is likely to bee a concern.“Then we also look at vulnerability in terms of socioeconomic and political developmentsanything from a regime type to the state of development in a region, she adds.This additional information is weighed up to determine whether it increases or decreases the chance of conflict. Other factors might include whether the water insecurity is likely to affect crops.The tool is just one part of a wider WPS project that aims to increase the availability of information which could help avoid waterrelated conflicts. Once artificial intelligence has made its predictions the WPS researchers use other analytical tools to zoomin on a certain region and find out exactly what39。t as simple as it might first appear.

Only 160 donors support the program, and finding new donors has proven to be difficult. But Harrison’s retirement from giving blood doesn’t mean he’s pletely out of the game.

The blood donations saved his life, and he decided that once he turned 18, he would begin donating blood as regularly as he could.” 14歲時(shí),詹姆斯他的獻(xiàn)血也促進(jìn)了未來的澳大利亞抗D計(jì)劃。文章主要敘述Harrison因別人的獻(xiàn)血挽救了自己的生命,因此決定18歲以后自己也參與獻(xiàn)血。故選A項(xiàng)。)可知,Neverland(夢(mèng)幻島)的靈感來源于故事《彼得“魔法之地”環(huán)繞著護(hù)城河布雷,這是蘇格蘭西南部鄧弗里斯的一座喬治王朝時(shí)期的聯(lián)排別墅,是彼得根據(jù)National Centre for Children39。故選B項(xiàng)。根據(jù)Yorkshire Sculpture Park一段中“The newlybuilt visitor center, the Weston, is to open to the public, with a gallery space, restaurant and a shop selling produce that includes honey made at the park.”(新建的游客中心,韋斯頓,將對(duì)公眾開放,有畫廊空間,餐廳和商店出售農(nóng)產(chǎn)品,包括在公園制作的蜂蜜。故選C項(xiàng)。根據(jù)Windermere Jetty一段中“Venture out on to the water on cruise boats and grab the opportunity to sail on the Osprey, a restored Edwardian steam boat.”(冒險(xiǎn)乘坐游船出海,抓住機(jī)會(huì)乘坐“魚鷹”號(hào),這是一艘經(jīng)過修復(fù)的愛德華時(shí)代的蒸汽船。s LiteratureD.
