By the year 2050 there may be 12.5 billion. There will be a lot of people to feed. We need more food.One way to produce more food is by growing stronger plants. For thousands of years, farmers have made plants better. Every season, they pick the best plants for the next season. It works very slowly. Since 1983, scientists have been able to change plants more quickly by changing their genetic material(遗传物质). Foods from plants grown in this way are called genetically modified foods(转基因食品), or GM foods.By changing the genetic material of a plant, it is possible to make new plants. They make plants which are strong against plant diseases. They can also help in our diseases: a kind of rice is being prepared, for example, which stops people from becoming blind.Rich countries produce GM foods because they are easy to grow and bring in more money. Poor countries are interested in them because they help produce more food.GM plants are not natural. No one knows how good or bad they are. Making GM foods is only one way of feeding people in 2050. There are strong feelings against them, because they are unnatural. They may feed people, then hurt them or their children later. But, both rich and poor countries are very interested in their use, and they are not going to go away. In 2050 we may think differently about them.（1）GM foods _.A . are a quick way to produce foodB . grow in the wildC . are safeD . are grown only in rich countries（2）Why do some people not like GM foods?A . They are not useful.B . They are not helpfulC . They are not naturalD . They are not natural（3）From the reading we know that _.A . GM foods will disappear one day in the futureB . GM foods will not disappear in the futureC . people will not be interested in GM foodsD . people will have to stop using GM foods24. （10分）完成表格。阅读下面短文，根据短文内容,完成表格中所缺的信息。每空一词。There are many libraries in Britain. Lets learn something about them.Public librariesMost towns in Britain have a public library. A library usually has a large selection of books and other resources, which library members can use and borrow for free.Britains First Public LibraryThe first Britains public library opened in Manchester in 1852. Its first librarian was a man called Edward Edwards. Edwards attended the librarys opening ceremony and two famous writers called Charles Dickens and William Thackeray were there, too.Services of libraryModern public libraries have something for everyone. Most of them have audio books, CDs, newspapers and DVDs as well as books to borrow.How to Join a LibraryTo join a library, go to your local library and fill in a form.

Other people find it difficult to go out because they have an illness or a disability. Thanks to mobile libraries, these people can still borrow books.The libraries are special. Unlike most libraries, which store books in buildings, mobile libraries usually keep their books in a mini-bus. The back of the mini-bus has shelves for the books, and it is big enough for borrowers to step inside and look around. A driver take the mini-bus to a certain place at a certain time, so people know when to expect it. They can return their books and borrow some more.All Aboard the Library!A school in London didnt have space for a library inside the building.
