11、thers barbershop when he became too ill to work.Jyoti Kumari, 18, and her 16-year-old sister, Neha, took over their fathers salon in their village in Uttar Pradesh after he became ill in 2014. The shop closed at first but it was the familys only source of income, forcing the girls to try to run it t
12、hemselves.“Customers were skeptical about having their hair or moustaches trimmed ( 修 剪 ) by young women, while others did not behave well towards us,” Jyoti told The Guardian. “For them, girls running a male salon were unacceptable, so we decided to change our whole get-up so that none could identi
13、fy us.”The girls cut their hair shot, wore mens clothes and adopted the male names Deepak and Raju. Several people in their village of about 100 houses knew their real identities, but for the next few years, most customers from surrounding areas had no idea. Neha said, “You could not identify me eve
14、n today.”They earned at least 400 rupees ($4) a day, enough to pay for their fathers treatment and support the family.As the years passed, they have slowly revealed their real identities to more customers. “Now we have gained enough confidence and dont fear anyone,” Neha said. “The majority of the c
15、ustomers have come to know that we are girls.” Jyoti has started to let her hair grow.After a journalist from the nearby city of Gorakhpur published a story about the girls in a Hindi newspaper, they were honored by government officers.“Its a brilliant story of how one can survive by battling agains
16、t all difficulties,” said Abhishek Pandey, an official. “The sisters should be the inspiration for society and their story must be made known to the public.”21.

The girls are highly thought of for their efforts of survival.BIt sounds like science fiction, but the worlds first floating dairy farm (奶牛场),
19、 the brainchild of Dutch company Beladon, will become a reality.Though the project has been in the works for years, the farm only recently got the green light for construction. This summer, a 900-ton platform was pulled to its current position in Rotterdams harbor. It will soon be a multi-level home
20、 to 40 cows.According to Peter, owner of Beladon, animal welfare was important when they were designing the farm. The finished farm will feature a “cow garden” on the top floor, with artificial trees and bushes to offer shade. A team of robots will be hired, collecting about 800 liters of milk per d
21、ay. The milk will then be processed on the floor below and sold locally. In their free time, however, cows can walk a ramp ( 斜 坡 ) to reach the firm ground on the bank. Tasty waste from the city cut grass, potato skins, etc. will be their main food source. And waste from the farm will be used as fer
22、tilizer throughout Rotterdam.The building will attract many visitors, but the real focus is food security. Getting cows on the water is a great step towards creating healthier cities. The idea first came in 2012, while Peter was in New York. When Hurricane Sandy hit, he watched the citys transportat
23、ion paralyzed ( 瘫痪的) as Manhattans roads were filled with water. Trucks for food distribution couldnt move anymore. After two days, there was no fresh food in the stores. Then Peter had a thought: To create a climate-adaptive method of producing fresh, local food, why not harvest right on the water?
24、 “Youre going up and down with the tide, and you dont need the transport.”Though its just one small farm, the project can serve as a model for cities across the globe. A building on the water is transportable, so you can move it when necessary.24. What do we know about the dairy farm?A. It is put in
25、to use.B. It is located in the deep sea.C. It is owned by the government.D. It is meant to serve local citizens.25.

To improve the local environment.CWhile scientists have been modifying(修改) plant genes for years in biotechnology, they usually fo
27、cus on a few specific genes in order to get a particular result. Plants have tens of thousands of genes. The genetically modified product (GMP) wont be dramatically different from its natural one. It may have a few features that the natural version doesnt have but otherwise will remain identical.Som
28、e people worry that genetic modification, which introduces genes from one species into an entirely different species, could create new allergens ( 过 敏 原 ). In fact, it may turn out that the opposite is true. Depending on the food, scientists might be able to remove or prevent the proteins that act a
29、s allergens for some people. This isnt true for every food, but genetic markers scientists use could lead to developing bacteria with a built-in resistance to antibiotics ( 抗生素). Scientists useantibiotic gene markers to link genes for the desired features. Also, by exposing modified plants cells to
30、antibiotics, a scientist can confirm whether or not the genetic modification was successful.But what if that resistance could be passed on the bacteria? Its possible that bacteria in the soil around a plant with antibiotic resistance could pick up the DNA. The bacteria could, in theory, pass this fe
31、ature to other types of bacteria harmful to humans. So far, however, scientists have been unable to transfer antibiotic resistance genes from plants to bacteria.In the United States, farmers dont have to label genetically modified foods or products. Both the Environmental Protection Agency and the F
32、ood and Drug Administration have very strict regulations that products must pass before they can go to market.Its possible that the foods that come from biotechnology are not only safe to eat, but theyre actually safer than their natural counterparts. While the controversy around genetically modifie
33、d food is far from resolved, it appears that you shouldnt worry if the ear of corn youre about to enjoy got its start in a laboratory.27. How could scientists deal with a plant in biotechnology?A. By changing some cells.B. By adding some foreign genes.C. By producing some natural proteins.D. By remo

Visual learners remember what they read over what they hear, and learn
37、 through sight. They are interested in using graphs and drawings to understand ideas. 31 While everyone has their own preference for learning, studies show that most people are visually inclined (有倾向的). 32 And thus, whenever people see pictures, those pictures are kept in the long-term memory, allow
38、ing them to recall concepts and ideas.Visual learners can learn effectively in many ways. First of all, a to-do list is a highly regarded technique. 33 Even if youre not a visual learner, a to-do list can let you order tasks based on importance and improve your productivity. 34 The idea is to displa
39、y relationships and connections to people, places events and more. This technique helps with the learning of particular concepts.Videos can easily catch peoples attention and allow us to recreate those stories into clear pictures in our minds. 35 In addition to recording the lecturers or their words
40、, you can also record yourself and make videos explaining certain concepts. This plays a great role in the learning process.A. These attract the attention of the individual.B. So why not include them in your learning?C. And they get used to taking notes during class.D. Why can visual learning help w
