During the past 1,000 years, the climates of the British Isles and continental Europe have undergone various episodes of change. It has long been believed that the demographic and economic expansion of Europe between the tenth and thirteenth centuries coincided with, and was perhaps encouraged by, a period of relative warmth , favorable to the expansion of cereal cultivation and the colonization of previously inhospitable environments. This benign phase, although variously dated, was seen to lie between a period of less favorable conditions in the late and post-Roman centuries and the so-called Little Ice Age of the early moderm period, which was characterized by an overall cooling of the climate and, in particular,by an increased severity of winters. Climatic deterioration was seen to have begun by circa 1300, presaged by an increase in stormy conditions in Europe, and associated with runs of wet and cool summers and the widespread harvest failures and livestock mortality of the years 1315-1322.

The integrity of the so-called medieval warm period, once considered a global phenomenon, has, however, been called into question by recent paleoenvironmental research. The picture that now emerges is of a less coherent and perhaps more geographically restricted phase—variously dated—of relative warmth, when temperatures in northwest Europe and the North Atlantic area were on average higher than in the post-Roman and early modern periods,although probably not warmer than in the late twentieth century.Some types of evidence, including the records of the advance and retreat of Alpine glaciers, suggest that the later fourteenth and early fifteenth centuries may have seen a notable climatic downturn,followed by a temporary amelioration around 1500, before renewed cooling into the Late Maunder Minimum period of 1675-1715.The relationship between glacial advance or retreat and temperature is,however, complex. A study of winter severity in central Europe during the fourteenth century found no clear trend, rather the altermation of runs of cold and mild winters, with the most sustained period of severe winters falling in the period 1301-1328.English documentary sources have been used to suggest a cooling trend from circa 1240-1340, with a subsequent amelioration followed by renewed cooling from circa 1510, but the sporadic nature of this data series necessitates caution. A long-term cooling trend in the northern hemisphere between the twelfth/thirteenth and the seventeenth centuries does, however, emerge from a plethora of sources,including tree-ring data, the study of lake and ocean sediments, and analysis of Greenland ice cores.

It can be inferred that the author would agree with which of the following statements about glaciers?

The advance and retreat of glaciers is a more reliable measure of weather patterms than are tree-ring data. The advance and retreat of glaciers during the medieval period is not well enough documented for researchers to identify clear patterms. The retreat of glaciers cannot be assumed to correlate consistently with periods of warmer weather. Glaciers remained stable in fourteenth-century central Europe despite alternating cold and mild winters. Glaciers in northern Europe were more significantly affected by changes in climate during the fourteenth century than were glaciers in central Europe.

1. 关于冰川的推断：
  - The advance and retreat of glaciers is a more reliable measure of weather patterns than are tree-ring data. 这个说法未必正确，因为冰川的变化受多种因素影响，并非仅限于气候变化，因此不能一概而论冰川的变化比树木年轮数据更可靠。
  - The advance and retreat of glaciers during the medieval period is not well enough documented for researchers to identify clear patterns. 这个说法可能是正确的，因为中世纪期间冰川的变化记录不足，难以确切地确定其模式。
  - The retreat of glaciers cannot be assumed to correlate consistently with periods of warmer weather. 这个说法是正确的，因为冰川的退缩并不一定始终与气温升高的时期一致。这与文章中讨论的冰川变化受多种因素影响的观点相符。
  - Glaciers remained stable in fourteenth-century central Europe despite alternating cold and mild winters. 这个说法未必正确，因为文章可能未提及14世纪中欧冰川的稳定性情况。
  - Glaciers in northern Europe were more significantly affected by changes in climate during the fourteenth century than were glaciers in central Europe. 这个说法也可能正确，但文章中是否具体讨论了这一点需要确认。
  因此，从文章内容推断，作者可能同意第三个说法：冰川的退缩不能一概而论地与温暖时期一致。

1. 关于冰川的推断： 正确答案是 "C"：冰川的退缩不能一概而论地与气候变暖期间保持一致。
  - 这个推断是从文章中得出的结论，冰川的进退受到多种因素的影响，不仅仅是温度，还包括降水模式和地理因素。
2. 文章结构的描述： 正确答案是 "B"：总结一个已建立的观点，考虑新证据下该观点的一些方面，同时确认早期观点的某些要素。
  - 这种结构匹配文章可能采用的方式，首先总结一个已知的观点或理论，然后在新证据的光下重新考虑某些方面，并最终确认或调整早期观点的一些要素。
3. 关于"相对温暖期"的推断： 正确答案是 "C"：这一期间似乎发生在比之前所认为的范围更为有限的地区。
  - 这一推断表明，文章中讨论的相对温暖期，并不像最初认为的那样广泛，显示出地区性变化，而非一个更广泛区域内的统一气候变化。
