Australian scientists are trying to give kangaroo-style stomachs to cattle and sheep in order to cut he greenhouse gases they send out, which are thought to be responsible for global warming.
Thanks to special bacteria in their stomachs, kangaroo flatulence(腸胃氣脹)contains no methane(甲烷)and scientists want to transfer that bacteria to cattle and sheep who produce large quantities of the harmful gas.
While the usual image of greenhouse gas pollution is a billowing smokestack (煙囪) pushing out carbon dioxide, farm animals’ passing wind contribute a surprisingly high percentage of total emissions (排放物)in some countries.
“Fourteen percent of emissions from all sources in Australia are from enteric methane from cattle and sheep,” said Athol Kleve, a senior research scientist with the Queensland state government.
“And if you look at another country such as New Zealand, which has got a much higher agricultural base, they're actually up around 50 percent, ” he said.
Researchers say the bacteria also make the digestive process much more efficient and could potentially save millions of dollars in feed costs for farmers.
But it will take researchers at least three years to isolate (分離) the bacteria, before they can even start to develop a way of transferring it to cattle and sheep.
Another group of scientists, meanwhile, has suggested Australians should farm fewer cattle and sheep and just eat more kangaroos.
The idea is controversial (有爭(zhēng)議的), but about 20 percent of health-conscious Australians are believed to eat the national symbol already.
“It's low in fat, it’s got high protein levels and it's very clean in the sense that basically it's the free-range (放養(yǎng)的) animal,” said Peter Amp of the University of New South Wales's institute of environmental studies.
1.Scientists intend to put bacteria into cattle and sheep _________.
A. so that they can make full use of special bacteria
B. to help Australian farmers to earn more money
C. so that they can protect Australian ecosystem
D. to prevent them from sending out harmful gases
2.Athol Kleve seems to believe that ________.
A. cattle and sheep produce more carbon dioxide
B. less cattle and sheep are raised in New Zealand
C. farm animals are responsible for greenhouse gases
D. New Zealand has the most animals in the world
3.What do the underlined words “the idea” in paragraph 9 refer to?
A. Australians should farm fewer cattle and sheep and just eat more kangaroos.
B. The bacteria could make the digestive process much more efficient.
C. Australians should give kangaroo - style stomachs to cattle and sheep.
D. The bacteria could save millions of dollars in feed costs for farmers.
4.Which of the statements is the advantage Peter Amp lists about kangaroo?
A. it is rich in protein B. it is cheaper than beef
C. it is high in fat D. it is more delicious than sheep

Students here can "look right out the back door" to see the giant turbines capture the wind and learn how they can produce power. More than 80 schools across the USA have installed some type of wind turbine, says Ian Baring - Could, senior engineer in a wind technology center at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory in Golden, Colo.
Now, a program called Wind for Schools is aiming to bring smaller turbines to six states:Colorado, Idaho, Kansas, Montana, Nebraska and
In Faith, S. D. , home to one of the schools hoping to build a small wind turbine in the next couple of years, a fierce wind blows across the plains most days. Angela King, who teaches science in grades 7 to 12 in Faith, believes a turbine wiI1 give students learning about wind energy the chance to "see it happening, rather than just reading it in a book. "
Much of the first year of the three - year program has been spent identifying schools hoping to join the program.
61. According to the first paragraph, we know wind turbines are installed __
A. to produce wind B. to generate electricity
C. for students to play with D. to attract visitors
62. What' s the real purpose of the program?
A. To sell smaller wind turbines to six states.
B. To warn the school of the danger from wind.
C. To teach the students to learn about wind power.
D. To encourage the students to operate wind turbines.
63. According to Angela King, __
A. it is better to learn from one' s experience
B. it is a waste of money to install wind turbines
C. students should not learn from reading books
D. students should be given the chance to play
64. We can conclude from the passage __
A. the program will last five years altogether
B. more and more schools will resist the program
C. some schools are forced to install wind turbines
D. more and more schools will join the program
65. This passage talks about the program in order to tell us __
A. watching turbines can make students clever
B. watching turbines at school can help build bodies
C. programs like this can help schools educate students
D. installing wind turbines can improve our environment

A New Store With Greens Like Emeralds (祖母綠)At his new Paradise Market, Jason Lowe displays fruit, bunches of herbs and frilly greens as a jeweler would decorates. The store, at a 1614 Beacon Street, is more than twice the size of his original one on Delaney Boulevard, which he closed more than a year ago when the rent went up. But his merchandising has not changed. “I do not wash my lettuces, or clean them the way others do,” he said. “They will last longer and stay fresher at home this way, and keep their nutrients. And I never put anything out on the street to dry in the sun.”
His berries are placed in an open case with a cooling unit. He has added fresh breads, cheeses, imported butters, top – of –the – line oils, gourmet pastas and Del Sur ice cream. As for a salad bar, he does not believe in them. He has a small kitchen to make soups and sandwiches to go.
