READING:

Scientists in the U.K. are surprised at how many flowers are open this winter. Usually, about 25 different flowers are open. This year, scientists found 368. Some are five months early. This is because of climate change. Britain had its warmest year last year. A scientist said: "This year, the total [number of flowers] has amazed us."

The scientist said warmer winters changed when flowers open. Usually, the snow stops flowers from opening, but not this year. The most common flowers to open were daisies. Britain's weather agency said: "All months except August were warmer than average, and this was the warmest year on record for the UK."
