16、 are pollution free and environmentally friendly are one of the key challenges ofworlds future society. A team of roboticists and biologists at IITIstituto Italiano di Tecnologia in Pontedera (Pisa, Italy), found that living plants can help with electricity. Fabian Meder, Barbara Mazzolai and iheir

17、co-workers at IIT discovered that living plants are “ green ” power source,which may :become one of futures electricity supplies that perfectly produces in natural environments and is accessible all over the world. Results are published on Advanced Functional Materials.They discovered that plants ca

18、n produce, by a single leaf, more than 150 volts each time the leaf is touched, enough to power 100 LED light bulbs. They also showed that an “hybrid tree” made of natural and artificial leaves can act as an “green” electrical producer transferring wind into electricity.Certain leaf structures are a

19、ble to transform mechanical(机械的 ) forces applied at the leaf surface into electrical energy, because of the specific composition that most plant leaves naturally provide. In detail, the leaf is able to gather electric charges on its surface due to a process called contact electrification. These char

20、ges are then immediately passed into the inner plant tissue. The plant tissue transports the electricity to other parts of the plant. And then, by simply connecting a “ plug” to the plant stem(茎), the electricity produced can he harvested and used to power electronic devices.The researchers addition

21、ally describe for the first time how this effect can be used to transfer wind into electricity by plants. They equipped a Nerum oleander tree(夹竹桃) with artificial leaves that touch the natural Nerum oleander leaves. When wind blows into the plant and moves the leaves, the “hybrid tree” produces elec

22、tricity. The electricity produced increases the more leaves are touched. Consequently, it can he easily up-scaled by exploiting the whole surface of I he leaves of a tree or even a forest.1.What can we learn about the discovery of the Italian scientists?A.A living leaf can produce electricity for 10

26、How natural leaves can be combined with artificial ones.4、 According to official government figures, there are more than twice as many kangaroos as people in Australia, and many Australians consider them pests(有害动物). Landholding farmers say that the countrys estimated 50 million kangaroos damage the

27、ir crops and compete with livestock for scarce resources. Australias insurance industry says that kangaroos are involved in more than 80 percent of the 20,000-plus vehicle-animal collisions reported each year. In the countrys underpopulated region, the common belief is that kangaroo numbers have swo

28、llen to “plague proportions.” In the absence of traditional hunters, the thinking goes, killing kangaroos is critical to balancing the ecology and boosting the rural economy. A government-sanctioned(政府认可的) industry, based on the commercial harvest of kangaroo meat and hides, exported $29 million in

29、products in 2017 and supports about 4,000 jobs. Today meat, hides, and leather from kangaroos have been exported to 56 countries. Global brands such as Nike, Puma, and Adidas buy strong, supple “k-leather” to make athletic gear. And kangaroo meat is finding its way into more and more grocery stores.

30、 Advocates point out that low-fat, high-protein kangaroo meat comes from an animal more environmentally friendly than greenhouse gas-emitting sheep and cattle. John Kelly, former executive director of the Kangaroo Industry Association of Australia, says, “Harvesting our food and fibers from animals

31、adapted to Australias fragile rangelands is extremely wise and sustainable. Many ecologists will tell you that there is no more humane way of producing red meat.” Opponents(反对者) of the industry call the killing inhumane, unsustainable, and unnecessary. Population estimates are highly debatable, they

32、 say, but “plague proportions” are biologically implausible. Little kangaroos grow slowly, and many die, so kangaroo populations can expand by only 10 to 15 percent a year, and then only under the best of circumstances. Dwayne Bannon-Harrison, a member of the Yuin people of New South Wales, says the

33、 idea that kangaroos are destroying the country is laughable. “Theyve been walking this land a lot longer than people have,” he says. “How could something thats been here for thousands of years be destroying the country? I dont understand the logic in that.” Can Australians conflicting attitudes tow

34、ard kangaroos be reconciled(和解) ? George Wilson says that if kangaroos were privately owned, then graziers(放牧人)working independently or through wildlife conservancieswould protect the animals, treating them as possessions. They could feed them, lease them, breed them and charge hunter a fee for acce

35、ss. “If you want to conserve something,” Wilson says, “you have to give it a value. Animals that are considered pests dont have value.” Privatization could also help reduce grazing pressures. If kangaroos were more valuable than cattle or sheep, farmers would keep less live-stock, which could be goo

36、d for the environment. Under this scheme, landholders would work with the kangaroo industry on branding, marketing and quality control. The governments role would be oversight and regulation.1.What can be learnt from the first three paragraphs?A. Kangaroo meat is healthier than other red meat. B. Gl

37、obal brands make small profits on kangaroos.C. Kangaroos are more friendly to the environment.D. Overpopulated kangaroos have become a financial burden.2.What does the underlined word “implausible” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A. Unreasonable. B. Immeasurable. C. Unquestionable. D.

The better management of the kangaroo industry.4.The passage is written to _.A. argue against the killing o

39、f kangaroos B. stress the importance of protecting kangaroos C. present different opinions on the kangaroo industryD. provide a solution to the problem caused by kangaroos5、根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。How to Write a Good College Application EssayHere are some tips collected from experts
