18、way with several important ideas about vertical farming.Humans have 12,000 years of experience in growing food,but only a generations worth of experience or so in growing crops indoors.We are still progressing up the technology learning curve (曲线).Whats more,traditional farming techniques are based

19、on conditions that are not applicable to vertical farming.Therefore,without taking time to understand the science,vertical farming is not likely to be able to live up to its implied promise.The cost of powering LED grow lights is one of the biggest problems a vertical farm must overcome.Dr.Louis Alb

20、right at Cornell has characterized vertical farms as the “pie-in-the-sky” business.He famously calculates,for instance,that the cost of a loaf of bread would be $24 if farmed indoorsthe cost is too high.Gauthier acknowledges that energy prices are high but points out that scientific work has shown t

21、hat only about 6% of available sunlight is used in crop photosynthesis (光合作用),so there may be ways of growing the same plants with less light.Gauthier also points out that while energy costs are a bit high,vertical farming does create enormous efficiencies in other areas.Water usage may be significa

22、ntly reduced because the same water can be recycled time and again.Fertilizer use can be greatly reduced and pesticides for pest control are unnecessary.Its clear that vertical farming offers real value to society.The future is probably mixed.In some environmentsthe Middle East,for instancea move to

23、 vertical farming is a no-brainer.An indoor farm in Saudi Arabia,for instance,can use solar energy to power LEDs at low cost without shading other farmland.In other environments,though,the expense of establishing a facility places a high bar on growth and profitability.A large vertical farming and e

28、era dangerous disease that they normally would spread.Dengue infections appear to be dropping fast in communities in Indonesia,Vietnam,Brazil and Australia that are filled with the specially grown mosquitoes.Researchers first injected (注射) mosquito eggs with Wolbachia bacteria thats common in insect

29、s and harmless to people in a lab.Infected females then pass the bacteria on through their eggs.Releasing enough Wolbachia carriers,both the females that bite and the males that dont,allows mating (交配) to spread the bacteria through a local mosquito population.Rather than using chemicals to wipe out

30、 pests,“this is really about transforming the mosquito,”said Cameron Simmons of the non-profit World Mosquito Program,which is conducting the research.The first success came from Australia.Starting in 2011,mosquitoes carrying Wolbachia were released in parts of North Queensland,and gradually spread

31、through the local mosquito population.Dengue is spread when a mosquito bites someone who is infected,and then bites another person,but somehow Wolbachia blocks thatand local spread has nearly disappeared in those North Queensland communities,Simmons said.The studies are continuing in other countries

32、.But the findings,presented at a meeting of the American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene,suggest its possible to turn at least some mosquitoes from a public health threat into annoying biters.The work marks “exciting progress”,said Michigan State University professor Zhiyong Xi,who wasnt in

33、volved in the project but has long studied how Wolbachia can turn mosquitoes against themselves.More research is needed,specialists cautioned.“The results are pretty excitingstrong levels of reductionsbut there clearly are going to be things to be learned from the areas where the reductions are not

34、as great,”said Penn State University professor Elizabeth McGraw.12.What can we learn about the lab-grown mosquitoes?A.They lose the ability to bite people.B.They become harmful to human beings.C.They carry dangerous Wolbachia bacteria.D.They spread Wolbachia bacteria by mating.13.What does the under

37、 different things.16There are many physical factors(因素)that play a part in sports performance.17 The natural talent and strength of the players will make a difference.Also,it is important to get enough sleep before you are in a sports event.18 Eating good meals is also important.When you are hungry,

38、you cannot perform the same.You might be thinking about food when you should be thinking about the game.Of course,the more a team or a player practices,the more likely they are to perform well.The same person with the same physical abilities might just become better as he practices.Researching your

39、competitor can matter a lot in sports performance.Knowing their strengths and weaknesses can help you adjust how you play to give yourself a better performance against them.19 If you can figure out where to hit the ball in tennis that would confuse your competitor,for example,then this can help you

40、score points.20 If someone is very pessimistic about a game,for example,and is sure that he will lose,then he might increase his chances of doing so.If he is very nervous then he might be thinking about that instead of focusing on the game.If he is focused then he might do better,achieving what he d

42、you normally would.E.If you have practiced enough to keep fit,you should have a rest.F.If someone is in good shape,then of course he will perform better.G.There are many psychological factors that can play a part in how well you perform.【帮你拓知识】核心知识,词块记忆as well as和;也;又keep track of记录,追踪get ready for准
