26、y involved 50 native German speakers studying Dutch at a Dutch university, who had recently learned to speak, read, and write in the new language.

34、As is well known, cacaos seeds provide something loved by billions: chocolate. Like other crops, cacaos are under constant threat from diseases and environmental challenges. The situation is exacerbated by our tendency to grow only a few varieties with similar genetic features（基因特点）. “Most varieties
35、 produced worldwide belong to a narrow set of clones selected in the 1940s,” said Wilbert PhillipsMora, a botanist. Therefore, commonly planted varieties of cacaos are easily affected by the same diseases, which can spread quickly. Cacao production brought wealth to Costa Rica until the late 1970s,
36、when a kind of fungus （真菌）spread around the country, and by 1983 Costa Rican exports of cacao beans had reduced by 94%. The industry there has never recovered.

39、a began to find the most naturally tolerant and productive cacaos, then painstakingly hybridized （杂交） the candidates to create new varieties. It is a lengthy process.
