11、est, and with it, “the dark half of the year”.But the true symbolic significance of black had to do with death, as did the holiday. The ancient Celts believed that during Samhain, the boundaries between the living and the dead were weakened. So the celebration would also include offerings to dead an

12、cestors, and celebrants would wear deep black mourning dress.OrangeOrange is a little self-explanatory. But it also has to do with the particular time of year. Again, Samhain was introducing the harvest time; people would have seen the trees turn orange after months of greenery. But the orange also

18、ersity of Edinburgh researchers studied nearly 10000 animal populations recorded in the Living Planet Database between 1970 and 2014 to provide a new perspective on animal population change. These include records of mammals, reptiles, sharks, fish, birds and amphibians.The team found that 15 percent

19、 of all populations declined during the period, while 18 percent increased and 67 percent showed no significant change. Amphibians were the only group in which population sizes declined, while birds, mammals and reptiles experienced increases. The overall decline in amphibians makes them a priority

20、for conservation efforts, researchers say, as their loss could have knock-on effects in food chains and wider ecosystems.Gergana Daskalova, of the University of Edinburghs School of GeoSciences, who led the study, said, “We often assume that declines in animal numbers are prevalent everywhere. But w

21、e found that there are also many species which have increased over the last half of a century, such as those which do well in human-transformed landscapes or those which are the focus of conservation actions.”Dr. Isla Myers-Smith, also of the School of GeoSciences, who co-authored the study, said, “

22、Only as we bring together data from around the world, can we begin to really understand how global change is influencing the biodiversity of our planet.”8.With the global temperature rising, what happens to the animals?ARare animal species tend to decline.BCommon animal species tend to increase.CGlo
