11、 one or two of them say,Thats him!”I was naturally pleased.After a while,one of the men entered my office and asked me,Are you the new editor? I said I was.Have you ever edited an agricultural paper before?“No.”I said,“This is my first try.“Id like to read you this:Turnips(大头菜)should never be pulled

12、;it injures them.It is much better to send a boy up and let him shake the tree.Now,what do you think of that?”I think it is good.Every year millions and millions of turnips are damaged by being pulled.If they had sent a boy up to shake the tree.”Shake your grandmother!Turnips dont grow on trees!”Oh,

13、they dont?Well,who said they did?The language was intended to be figurative(比喻的)。”Then this old gentleman tore his paper into pieces,and went out.Pretty soon after this,the editor came in,looking sad and confused.He said,What put it into your head that you could edit a paper of this nature?You talk

14、of the moulting(换羽毛)season for cows;and you say that clams(蛤蜊)will lie quiet if music were played to them.Nonsense!Clams always lie quiet and they care nothing whatever about music.Ah,heavens and earth, friend!Why didnt you tell me you didnt know anything about agriculture?21.How did the author feel

18、d ashen ground.They are terrified.said Cheyne Flanagan,clinical director of the Koala Hospital in Port Macquarie.The only one in the world,koalas,unlike kangaroos,birds or snakes,do not flee from fires but instead climb trees to the top,where they can roll themselves up into a ball for protection an

19、d wait for the danger to pass.But during the destructive fires,such as those that have burned in recent weeks,the animals are far less likely to survive.Even if the fire itself does not reach the tree top,the animals may overheat and fall to the ground,where they can be burned to death.While koalas

20、have evolved(进化)to exist alongside wildfires,the animals are facing new threats not just from climate change but also from human development,which will impair their ability to survive fires.We have these unique animals not found anywhere else on this planet,and were killing them, Flanagan said,This

24、ty after another and enter the buildings exactly like what they are in reality,and see Notre Dame as it was before the fire.Further,with virtual(虚拟的)reality technology,which is already quite mature,one can even look around the undamaged Notre Dame as if it is still there.Maybe digital(数字的)technology

25、 could help to better protect architectural cultural heritage.The idea of making digital models of ancient buildings to save their data dates back to the 1990s and the necessary technology has continued to advance since then.By scanning the ancient buildings with lasers(激光),building 3D models with m

26、ultiple images,as well as measuring everything precisely, engineers can make a copy as accurate as the real one.As computers and smartphones are hugely popular,the digital model has great useful value.First,itallows tourists to feel the cultural relics without touching them.The virtual tour of Dunhu

27、ang Grottoes in Gansu Province is a good example of this as tourists can view the paintings without standing near them.Furthermore,it can make the digitized cultural relics more famous by spreading awareness about them via the Internet.In 2000,a virtual tour of the Great Wall became very popular at
