But unlike human, plants can have their temperature taken from 3, 000 feet away straight up. A decade ago, adopt
48、ing the infrared (红外线)scanning technology developed for military purposes and other satellites, physicist Stephen Paley came up with a quick way to take the temperature of crops to determine which ones are under stress. The goal was to let farmers precisely aim at pesticide (杀虫剂)spraying rather than
49、 rain poison on a whole field, which was sure to include plants that dont have pest (害虫)problems.Even better, Paleys Remote Scanning Services Company could detect crop problems before they became visible to the eye. Mounted on a plane flown at 3, 000 feet at night, an infrared scanner measured the h
50、eat given out by crops. The data were transformed into a color-coded map showing where plants were running “fevers”. Farmers could then spot-spray, using 50 to 70 percent less pesticide than they otherwise would.The bad news is that Paleys company closed down in 1984, after only three years. Farmers
51、 resisted the new technology and long-term backers were hard to find. But with the increasing concern about pesticides on produce, and improvement in infrared scanning, Paley hopes to get back into operation. Agriculture experts have no doubt the technology works. “This technique can be used on 75 p
52、ercent of agricultural land in the United States, ” says George Oerther of Texas A & M. Ray Jackson , who recently retired from the Department of Agriculture, thinks remote infrared crop scanning could be adopted by the end of the decade.

57、with your blood. The key to your problem is that long nap (打盹,小睡) after dinner.If you didnt sleep for hours during the early part of the evening, you would be more ready to sleep at bedtime. If you didnt nap after dinner, you would not want to stay up so late, and you would not feel the need to take
58、 a sleeping pill. The pill is still working in your system when you get up in the morning.
