You can thank plant breeders (植物育种家) for the change. Modern breeders, armed with new gene-editing technology,
28、are looking to reproduce Brussels sprouts reinvention. In the late 1990s, scientists discovered specific chemicals which made Brussels sprouts taste bitter. Plant breeders started growing old seeds, previously abandoned due to poor yields (产量), to look for tastier versions with lower levels of these
29、 specific chemicals. Then they crossed these delicious but low-yield plants with high-yield individuals until they found a version that made plenty of tasty sprouts, transforming the vegetable from a bitter pill into a popular dish. But other vegetables havent fared as well. Thats because most breed
30、ing decisions favor plant traits that matter to vegetable growers, not vegetable eaters. For instance, disease resistance is probably the major focus these days of most breeding programs because that prevents the farmer from growing the crop. The taste of vegetables is ignored.People, however, are n
31、ow becoming interested in prioritizing the taste of vegetables thanks in part to new genetic technology such as the gene-snipping technique CRISPR and DNA sequencing which is cheap enough to use widely. “Theres never been a better time to be a fruit breeder or a vegetable breeder because we have mor
32、e tools and techniques,” says Susan Brown, an apple breeder at Cornell University.Some companies are beginning to use those tools to deal with the challenge of developing tastier vegetables. One company, Pairwise, is fighting the same compounds that troubled Brussels sprouts: glucosinolates. But thi
33、s time researchers are improving the flavor of salad greens.All vegetable growers hope that more flavorful products on store shelves will convince people to consume the recommended allowances (推荐量) of fruits and vegetables and do so better than decades of nutritional guidance have. “Dont waste your
34、time talking about trying to educate people to eat better,” said Harry Klee, a professor who specializes in tomato breeding. “Just give them products that taste better and that they want to eat.”28. Why did plant breeders grow old Brussels sprout seeds?A. To find out why Brussels sprouts are bitter.
35、B. To find the less bitter versions of Brussels sprouts.C. To study the specific chemicals of Brussels sprouts.D. To select high-yielding versions of Brussels sprouts.29. What does the underlined word “fared” in paragraph 3 mean?A. ProfitedB. Emerged.C. Survived.D. Succeeded. 30. What can we learn f

Fruit and vegetable breeders are struggling to develop new species.D. Fruit and vegetable breeders should develop new genetic techno

Making vegetables and fruits more affordable for people.C. Improving the nutritional content of vegetables and fruits.D. Educating people about t
38、he benefits of vegetables and fruits.DDespite all the efforts students make to graduate with a science major, research has shown that most college science courses provide students with only a fragmented (碎片化的) understanding of fundamental scientific concepts. The teaching method improves memorizatio
39、n of separate facts, proceeding from one textbook chapter to the next without necessarily making connections between them, instead of learning how to use the information and connect those facts meaningfully.With that in mind, we developed a series of cross-disciplinary (跨学科的) activities. In our most
40、 recent study, we investigated how well college students could use their chemistry knowledge to explain real-world biological phenomena. To begin with, we interviewed 28 first-year college students majoring in sciences or engineering. All had taken both introductory chemistry and biology courses. We
41、 asked them to identify connections between the content of these courses and what they believed to be the take-home messages from each course. The students responded with extensive lists of topics, concepts, and skills that theyd learned in class.Following that, a set of cross-disciplinary activitie
42、s were designed to guide students in the use of core chemistry ideas and knowledge to help explain real-world biological phenomena. One activity explored the impacts of ocean acidification on seashells. Here, the students were asked to use basic chemistry ideas to explain how the increasing level of
43、 carbon dioxide in sea water is affecting shell-building marine animals such as corals, clams and oysters.Overall, the students felt confident of their chemistry knowledge. However, they had a harder time applying the same chemistry knowledge to explaining the biological phenomena. These findings hi
44、ghlight that a big gap remains between what students learn in their science courses and how well prepared they are to apply that information.The students in our study also reported that these activities helped them see links between the two disciplines that they wouldnt have perceived otherwise. The
45、 ability to make these connections is important beyond the classroom as well, because its the basis of science literacy (科学素养). So we also came away with evidence that our chemistry students at least would like to have the ability to have a deeper understanding of science and how to apply it.32. Wha
46、t does the existing science education fail to do according to the research? A. Extend students theoretical knowledge.B. Engage students in more outdoor activities. C. Encourage students to enjoy the learning process. D. Teach students to make connections among different subjects.33. What can we lear
47、n about the student interviewees?A. They have rich academic knowledge.B. They pay little attention to biology courses. C. They hardly identify the core ideas of science. D. They fully understand their majors importance.34. The activity about ocean acidification expects students to _.A. analyse the e
48、xact composition of sea water. B. study some unusual phenomena under the sea. C. come up with practical methods to protect sea life. D. explain the effects of carbon dioxide on sea creatures.35. What does the author see from the result of the study?A. The need to remove the unfairness in education.
49、B. The difficulties of cross-disciplinary study.C. The potential to promote students science literacy.D. The method of increasing students practical skills.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。The benefits of positive emotions never stop after a few minutes of good feel
