According to the latest inventory（编目）, China's total glacier（冰川）area around 2020 was about 46,000 square kilometres, with around 69,000 glaciers. Compared to the results of the first inventory from the 1960s to 2020, China's glacier area has shrunk by 26 per cent, with nearly 7,000 small glaciers disappearing. Compared to the second inventory, from 2008 to 2020, the glacier area reduced by about 6 per cent, showing a rapid retreat（消融）.
The findings were shared on Friday in March 2025, the first World Day for Glaciers, as researchers presented China's third glacier inventory at the third Chinese Conference of Cryospheric Science in Lingshui, Hainan Province.
Global glacier inventory efforts began in 1978, studying the distribution（分布） and volume（体积） of mountain glaciers. China's first and second glacier inventories were published in 2002 and 2014, with research detailing changes in the country's glaciers from the late 20th century to the early 21st century.
“Glaciers are among the most sensitive and direct signs of climate change, and glacier inventories are surveys of glacier resources,” researchers from the Northwest Institute of Eco-Environment and Resources explained.
China began its first glacier inventory in 1978, led by scientist Shi Yafeng, as countries with glacier distributions worldwide began compiling（编制） their own inventories. The process took 24 years and was completed in 2002.
The first inventory recorded about 46,000 glaciers in China, covering around 59,000 square kilometres. With global temperatures rising, China's glaciers have continued to shrink, according to the Northwest Institute of Eco-Environment and Resources.
To better understand glacier distribution after 2000, the Cold and Arid Regions Environmental and Engineering Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Sciences began the second inventory in 2007, publishing the data set in 2014. The results showed that by 2008, China had around 48,000 glaciers covering about 52,000 square kilometres.
China is the only major country to have completed three full glacier inventories, according to the institute.
The United Nations has chosen March 21st as World Glacier Day starting from 2025. Glaciers are of great importance to the earth's climate and water resources, but their rapid melting has brought many problems. Although glaciers are still shrinking, the good news is that scientists all over the world are working hard to find ways to save them.

【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了中国冰川最新编目的结果以及其对气候变化的敏感性,以及中国冰川的变化及其对环境的影响。
1. C 解析:写作手法题。根据“China's total glacier area around 2020 was about 46,000 square kilometres, with around 69,000 glaciers”以及后续提到的不同编目的对比可知,文章通过比较不同编目的事实来开头。故选 C。
2. D 解析:图示理解题。根据“The first inventory recorded about 46,000 glaciers in China, covering around 59,000 square kilometres.”和第二次结果“The results showed that by 2008, China had around 48,000 glaciers covering about 52,000 square kilometres.”的数据,并结合“According to the latest inventory, China's total glacier area around 2020 was about 46,000 square kilometres, with around 69,000 glaciers.”中最新的数据可知冰川的面积在逐年减少,D 项折线图符合以上数据表现。故选 D。
3. B 解析:文章出处题。文章介绍了中国冰川变化的情况,属于对科学研究的报道,因此最可能出现在网站的“Science Report”类别。故选 B。
4. A 解析:推理判断题。根据文章最后提到“scientists all over the world are working hard to find ways to save them”可推测,接下来可能讨论科学家研究的减缓冰川融化的措施。故选 A。
