　　(2017·山西高三诊断)Britain is set to face an increase in cold winters, with up to oneinseven hitting the UK with longer periods of time when temperatures are below freezing, a study has suggested.The prediction was based on research that found out how low solar activity affected winter weather patterns.

　　However, the researchers were eager to stress that their findings did not suggest that the region was about to fall suddenly into a “little ice age”．The findings appear in the journal Environmental Research Letters.“We could get to the point where oneinseven winters are very cold, as we had at the start of last winter and all through the winter before last.”said coauthor Mike Lockwood, professor of space environment physics at the University of Reading.

　　Using the Central England Temperature (CET) record, the world's longest instrumental data series that dates back to 1659，the team said that in general temperatures during recent winters had been obviously lower than the longerterm temperatures.“The mean CET for December, January and February for the recent relatively cold winters of 2008～2009 and 2009～2010 were 3.50℃ and 2.53℃ respectively，” they wrote.“However, the mean value for the previous 20 winters had been 5.04℃.The series of lower winter temperatures in the UK during the last three years had raised questions about the probability of more similar, or even colder winters occurring in the future.”
