A grup f farmers in Nigeria is using a technlgy-based methd t grw crps. The methd, knwn as aerpnics, des nt invlve sil. Instead, plant rts hang in the air.
Aerpnics is nt well-knwn in Nigeria, but farmers there are wrking t make the technique mre ppular. The technique culd make a big difference in places like the city f Abekuta. Vilent cnflicts and desertificatin — the prcess by which rich land becmes desert — have made huge amunts f land unsuitable fr farming.
Bichemist Samsn Ogble is ppularly knwn as Nigeria’s smart farmer. He and his team are grwing crps withut sil at the technlgy-based farm they started three years ag in Abekuta. “We are putting an end t seasnal fd shrtage in Nigeria,” said Ogble, “Because we are the nes cntrlling everything that the plant requires — we are nt depending n seasns. S it’s n lnger seasnal farming. It is just farming anytime f the year, meaning yu can plant anytime f the year. We can harvest anytime f the year,” said Ogble.
But setting up the aerpnic farm was nt easy. It required mre than $210,000. And sme peple in Abekuta were very much against this nn-traditinal methd f farming. “It tk a lt f effrt t change peple’s minds abut aerpnics,” said Ogble.
In Nigeria, abut 30 millin hectares f farmland is being used, instead f the 78. 5 millin hectares required
fr fd security. Vilent cnflicts and desertificatin are the tp reasns the farmland is being lst. And nly 49 percent f the land is rich. Besides, mst farmers d nt have the technical knwledge t increase prductivity. They are als in need f high-quality seeds t guarantee better harvests. Fr nw, technlgically skilled farmers like Samsn Ogble are ffering a new way frward.
What is special abut aerpnics?
Crps are nt grwn in sil.B．Crps can grw all by themselves. C．Crps withut rts can grw well. D．Crps can grw well withut water.
What des the new methd enable farmers t d?
Reduce the csts f farming.B．Prduce crps f higher quality. C．Grw crps whenever they like.D．Keep crps fresh fr a lnger perid.
What d we knw abut Abekuta frm the passage?
There is plenty f rich land there.
Mst farmers there are technlgically skilled nes.
Many farmers there are terribly vilent.
Sme peple there dn’t apprve f aerpnics.

Carl Behnke, a fd safety expert at Purdue University, had always wndered hw clean his reusable water bttle was. After stuffing paper twels inside and pulling them ut, he was shcked t see hw dirty they became. This inspired him t design a study. Behnke and clleagues stpped passers-by in a crridr at Purdue and asked if they wuld be happy t lan their water bttles t them as part f their research — t see hw clean they were.
“One thing that std ut frm the prject was the number f peple wh didn’t want t knw the results,” recalls Behnke. “Basically, they knew that their cleaning habits were pr t nn-existent — smething the data later cnfirmed.”
Research shws that reusable water bttles can harbr millins f bacteria. A study fund that water in bttles used by adults went frm abut 75,000 bacteria per milliliter in the mrning t ver 1-2 millin by the end f the day. Cntaminatin ften cmes frm the drinker’s hands, muth, and the utside f the bttle. Thse wh
dn’t wash their hands regularly may intrduce harmful germs int their bttles.
While mst bacteria are harmless, they can pse risks, especially fr individuals with weakened immune systems. Additinally, drinks that cntain sugar can feed bacteria, prmting grwth and making the situatin wrse. Althugh serius illnesses frm reusable bttles are rare, it’s still crucial t maintain gd hygiene (卫生).
T reduce bacterial grwth, it’s recmmended t clean yur water bttle regularly. Behnke’s research
indicated that participants wh used brushes r dishwashers had the lwest bacteria cunts. Cleaning shuld invlve ht water and sap, letting the bttle sit fr abut ten minutes befre rinsing (彻底冲洗) thrughly. It’s essential t let the bttle air-dry t prevent misture (水分) buildup, which encurages bacteria. And prper hand washing befre tuching yur clean bttle can als help minimize cntaminatin.
What can be inferred abut the participants accrding t paragraph 2?
They actively engaged in the study.
They were aware f their pr cleaning habits.
They thught the study was unnecessary.
They were cnfident abut the study results.
What des the underlined wrd “Cntaminatin” in paragraph 3 mean?
Pllutin.B．Purificatin.C．Destructin.D．Infectin.
What’s a recmmended apprach t reducing bacteria grwth?
Using brushes with ht sapy water.B．Wiping with clean dry twels. C．Washing fr abut ten minutes each time.D．Washing hands regularly with sap.
What can be the best title f the text?
Are Yu Using the Right Water Bttle?B．Des Yur Water Bttle Make Yu Sick? C．Are Yu Cleaning Yur Water Bttle Enugh?D．Shuld Yu Stp Using Reusable Water Bttle?

Li Wei, a high schl senir, had always felt cnfused between her mther’s expectatin and her wn dream. Her mther, a traditinal Chinese medicine dctr, ran a small clinic in their twn. The air inside was always filled with the earthy smell f dried herbs. Her mther had lng hped Li Wei wuld take ver the family business. “A career in medicine is a gd chice, and it cnnects us t ur rts,” her mther ften said, pinting t the ld bks lining n the shelves.
But Li Wei’ s heart belnged t classical dance. She spent hurs practicing in secret, and her rm was full f psters f internatinal dance grups. One evening, while helping her mther prepare herbs, Li Wei accidentally kncked ver a jar f ginseng (人参). As she hurried t clean up, her mther’s vice cut thrugh the silence, “Yu’ re t distracted. This is why yu can’t fcus n yur studies— and the clinic.”
Li Wei’ s cheeks turned red. “I dn’ t want t be a dctr!” she shuted. “I want t dance!” Befre her mther culd answer, Li Wei grabbed her bag and ran ut, leaving the clinic dr mving.
Weeks passed, and the tensin between them reached biling pint. Li Wei avided the clinic, spending lng hurs at dance practices even thugh her knees had becme swllen and red. When she did cme hme, the huse was full f cld silence, brken nly by the ccasinal nise f her mther’s tl grinding (研磨) herbs. But Li Wei culdn’t miss the way her mther’s eyes lked at her dance shes, r the sft sighs that came frm her during their
rare talks. She was eager fr her mther’s supprt.
Then came a big chance: a natinal dance cmpetitin. Li Wei’ s hands shk as she filled ut the applicatin frm, her heart beating fast. But when she lked at the bttm f the page, she felt scared. The frm needed a parent’s signature, a sad reminder f the gap between her and her mther.
