2、containing salt water. Their work may enable abandoned farms to become productive once more. Tim Flowers and Tony Yeo, from Sussex Universitys School of Biological Sciences, have spent several years researching how crops, such as rice, could be made to grow in water that has become salty. The pair h

3、ave recently begun a three-year programme, funded by the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council, to establish which genes enable some plants to survive salty conditions. The aim is to breed this capability into crops, starting with rice. It is estimated that each year more than 10m h

4、ectares (公顷) of agricultural land are lost because salt gets into the soil and stunts (阻碍生长) plants. The problem is caused by several factors. In the tropics, mangroves (红树木) that create swamps (沼泽) and traditionally formed barriers to sea water have been cut down. In the Mediterranean, a series of

5、droughts have caused the water table to drop, allowing sea water to seep (渗入) in. In Latin America, irrigation often causes problems when water is evaporated (蒸发) by the heat, leaving salt deposits behind. Excess salt then enters the plants and prevents them functioning normally. Heavy concentration

6、s of minerals in the plants stop them drawing up the water they need to survive. To overcome these problems, Flowers and Yeo decided to breed rice plants that take in very little salt and store what they do absorb in cells that do not affect the plants growth. They have started to breed these charac

7、teristics into a new rice crop, but it will take about eight harvests before the resulting seeds are ready to be considered for commercial use. Once the characteristics for surviving salty soil are known, Flowers and Yeo will try to breed the appropriate genes into all manners of crops and plants. L

12、l our lives, you cannot overlook Henry Ford. A historian a century from now might well conclude that it was Ford who most influenced all manufacturing, everywhere, even to this day, by introducing a new way to make cars one, strange to say, that originated in slaughterhouses (屠宰场). Back in the early

13、 1900s, slaughterhouses used what could have been called a disassembly line. Ford reversed this process to see if it would speed up production of a part of an automobile engine called a magneto. Rather than have each worker completely assemble a magneto, one of its elements was placed on a conveyer,

14、 and each worker, as it passed, added another component to it, the same one each time. Professor David Hounshell of the University of Delaware, an expert on industrial development, tells what happened. The previous day, workers carrying out the entire process had averaged one assembly every 20 minut

15、es. But on that day, on the line, the assemble team averaged one every 13minutes and 10 seconds per person. Within a year, the time had been reduced to five minutes. In 1913, Ford went all the way. Hooked together by ropes, partially assembled vehicles were towed (拖,拉) past workers who completed the

16、m one piece at a time. It hasnt long before Ford was turning out several hundred thousand cars a year, a remarkable achievement then. And so efficient and economical was this new system that he cut the price of his cars in half, to $ 260, putting them within reach of all those who, up until that tim

17、e, could not afford them. Soon, auto makers and the world all copied him. In fact, heencouraged them to do so by writing a book about all of his innovations, entitled Today and Tomorrow. The Age of the Automobile has arrived. Today, aided by robots and other forms of automation (自动化), everything fro

18、m toasters to perfumes is made on assembly lines. 36、Which of the following statements about Henry Ford is NOT true_? A.He introduced a new way of production. B.He influenced all manufacturing. C.He inspired other auto makers. D.He changed a historians mind. 37、The writer mentions slaughterhouses be

19、cause they were the places where _ A.Fords assembly line originated B.Ford made his first car C.Ford readjusted the assembly line D.Ford innovated the disassembly line 38、A magneto is a technical term for_ A.an automobile B.a production line C.a part of an automobile engine D.a disassembly line 39、t

21、tion of his cars by 50% 根据下列材料，回答41-46问题 第三篇 Play Play is the principal business of childhood, and in recent years research has shown the great importance of play in the development of a human being. From earliest infancy, every child needs opportunity and the right materials for play, and the main

22、tools of play are toys, Their main function is to suggest, encourage and assist play.

23、 In recent years research on infant development has shown that the standard a child is likely to reach, within the range of his inherited abilities. is largely determined in the first three years of his life. So a babys ability to profit from the right play materials should not be underestimated. A

24、baby who is encouraged and stimulated, talked to and shown things and played with, has the best chance of growing up successfully. In the next stage, from three to five years old, curiosity knows no bounds. Every type of suitable toy should be made available to the child, for trying out, experimenti

Bricks and jigsaws (七巧板) and construction toys; painting, scribbling (涂鸦) and making things; sand and water play; toys for imaginative and pretending play; the first social games for learning to play and get on with others. But the third s

26、tage of playdevelopment - from five to seven or eight years - the child is at school. But for a few more years play is still the best way of learning, at home or at school. It is easier to see which type of toys the child most enjoys. Until the age of seven or eight, play and work mean much the same

27、 to a child. But once reading has been mastered, then books and school become the main source of learning. Toys are still interesting and valuable, they lead on to new hobbies, but their significance has changed-to a child of nice or ten years, toys and games mean, as to adults, relaxation and fun.
