A team f scientists are carrying ut a prject at the University f Greenwich in Lndn. They are trying t find ways t make fd n Mars(火星) in the future. The prject is called Feeding Mars. It tries t use water, fish and fish waste t grw fruit and vegetables n Mars.

It's late evening in the middle f the winter. The snw is deep, but ff I g int the wild.
Suddenly, I hear it: the hwl (嚎叫)f wlves. Excitedly, I walk faster in the directin f the hwling.
I've been wrking as a vlunteer wlf tracker in Yellwstne Natinal Park fr ver a year. It's my jb t fllw wlves t recrd infrmatin abut them. Like wlves, hwever, I dn't wrk alne. I'm ne f a team f peple wh have been in a prject t help reintrduce wlves t the park.
Humans have always feared wlves. Frm fairy tales t mvies, the wlf is always the bad guy —a danger t humans and ther animals. In the 1920s, the rganizers f the park shared this view abut wlves and made the decisin t drive them away frm the park. As a result, the number f elk （麋鹿）in the park increased. The elk started lking fr fd near river banks since they didn't have t wrry abut wlves. This, in turn, stpped trees frm grwing alng the rivers, ding great harm t the envirnment there.
The return f wlves has already made a big difference. T begin with, the elk sn learned t stay away frm the rivers, s new trees have been able t grw there. The trees becme hme t new wildlife, such as birds, and prvide fd fr mre animals.
The park is nw becming mre and mre ppular with thse wh want t see wlves in their natural envirnment. It has als helped the lcal peple make mre mney. Turists visit the area, stay in the lcal htels, and eat in the lcal restaurants.
Lking at the wild animals and the beautiful sceneries arund me, I am amazed at the changes the wlf has made t Yellwstne. And happily, it is playing a gd guy in this stry.

Yuan Lngping, knwn as the “father f hybrid rice”, was ne f China's mst famus scientists. Yet, he cnsidered himself a farmer because he cntinually wrked the land in his research. Indeed, his slim but strng bdy was just like that f millins f Chinese farmers, t whm he had devted his life.
Yuan Lngping was brn in 1930 in Beijing. His parents wanted him t pursue a career in science r medicine. Hwever, what cncerned him mst was that farmers ften had pr harvests and smetimes even had a serius shrtage f fd t eat. T tackle this crisis, he chse t study agriculture and received an educatin at Suthwest Agricultural Cllege in Chngqing.
After graduating in 1953, he wrked as a researcher. Yuan Lngping realized that larger fields were nt the slutin. Instead, farmers needed t bst yields in the fields they had. Hw this culd be dne was a challenging questin at the time. Yuan was cnvinced that the answer culd be fund in the creatin f hybrid rice. A hybrid is a crss between tw r mre varieties f a species. One characteristic f hybrids is that they usually attain a higher yield than cnventinal crps. Hwever, whether it was pssible t develp a hybrid f self-pllinating plants such as rice was a matter f great debate. The cmmn assumptin then was that it culd nt be dne. Thrugh intense effrt, Yuan vercame enrmus technical difficulties t develp the first hybrid rice that culd be used fr farming in 1974. This hybrid enabled farmers t expand their utput greatly.
Tday, it is estimated that abut 60 percent f dmestic rice cnsumptin in China is cmprised f crps generated frm Yuan's hybrid strains, and his strains have allwed China's farmers t prduce arund 200 millin tns f rice per year. Yuan's innvatin has helped feed nt just China, but many ther cuntries that depend n rice as well, such as India and Vietnam. Because f his invaluable cntributins, Yuan Lngping received numerus awards bth in China and abrad.
Given that Yuan’s hybrids made him quite wealthy, ne might think he wuld have retired t a life f leisure. Hwever, this is far frm the case. Deep dwn, Yuan was still very much a farmer at heart. As a man f the sil, he cared little fr celebrity r mney. Instead, he made large dnatins t supprt agricultural research.
What impressed peple mst abut Yuan Lngping was his nging ability t fulfil his dreams. Lng ag, he envisined rice plants as tall as srghum, with each ear f rice as big as a brm, and each grain f rice as huge as a peanut. He succeeded in prducing a kind f rice that culd feed mre peple at hme and abrad. His later visin fr “seawater rice” als became a reality, and ptentially pened up nearly ne millin square kilmeters f salty land in China fr rice prductin. Even in his later years, Yuan Lngping was still yung at heart and full f visin, and everyne was always excited t see what he wuld dream up next.

A. he made invaluable cntributins t agriculture.
B. he was as slim and strng as a farmer.
C. he develped a hybrid f self-pllinating plants.
D. he cntinually wrked the land in his research.
( )33. What is the main advantage f hybrid crps?
A. They usually attain a higher yield than cnventinal crps.
B. They usually grw taller than cnventinal crps.
C. They can be planted in China, India and Vietnam.
D. Their grwing perid（生长期）is shrter than cnventinal crps.
( )34. Hw has Yuan's wrk helped China and ther cuntries?
A. He let peple frm China and abrad knw mre abut varieties f a species thrugh his wrk.
B. He devted his life t farmers acrss the wrld.

SHOULD WE FIGHT NEW TECHNOLOGY?
This mrning, I saw the shcking headline: “Passenger Dies When Car Crashes in Driverless Mde”. In the article, varius peple said that the public shuld ppse the idea f develping driverless cars. They said that sme advances in technlgy were unnecessary and culd even be dangerus. Hence, we shuld cease accepting technlgy just because it is new. The newspaper reprted that the car cmpany had already aplgized fr the accident, but the families f the deceased said it was nt enugh. Nevertheless, the cmpany still claimed that mst peple wuld be travelling in driverless cars ne day sn.
On the ne hand, there are many different grups f peple arund the wrld wh live happily in the absence f new technlgy. Prbably the mst well-knwn are the Amish, a grup f Christians living in rural America. They d nt wn r drive cars, watch TV, r use the Internet. They have lived mainly as farmers since the 18th century and they will prbably be living the same way in the distant future. They advcate a simple life with an emphasis n hard wrk, family, and cmmunity. They think that is better than caring abut luxuries r fllwing the lives f the rich and famus. It culd even be argued that the Amish’s quality f life is better since they live in and appreciate the natural envirnment rather than living in large, plluted cities.
