Although these schools have to follow the national courses, they are allowed a lot of choice in deciding what to teach. Some of these new schools

57、tes, China and Scotland is hopeful about the future of forests. Six experts in forestry science and economics say forest growth is on the increase in some countries and the number is rising. Professor Kauppi says the findings suggest the world may be able to reach a turning point away from deforesta
58、tion (毁林). Many experts have considered that impossible. But the researchers say it may be possible to expand the worlds forests by ten percent, or an area about the size of India, by 2050. They used information released last year by the Food and Agriculture Organization. The new study looked at the
59、 fifty nations with the most forests. The researchers used a new way to measure forest resources. They considered more than just the amount of land covered by trees. They also considered forest density, tree sizes, biomass (生物量) and the amount of atmospheric carbon captured in forests. The biomass r
60、epresents all plants and tree growth. The researchers say growing stock increased in twenty-two of the fifty countries. And, in about half of the fifty countries, biomass and carbon storage also increased. The researchers say forest areas and biomass are still being lost in such important countries
61、as Brazil and Indonesia. But they found gains in others, including the worlds most populous nations. They say China and the United States have had the greatest gains. And they say India has reached the right balance between forested and non-forested land. In percentage terms, though, the study says
62、that forest areas have expanded fastest in the last fifteen years in Vietnam, Spain and China. And they have shrunk fastest in Nigeria and the Philippines. Professor Kauppi says the main obstacle to forest growth is fast-growing poor populations that burn wood for cooking fuel, or sell it for quick
63、money or clear forest for crops. But a number of scientists criticized the use of information that came from governments. They said some governments didnt keep good records about their forests, and might not tell the truth.56. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage? A
64、. The research team is made up of experts from four countries. B. By 2050, Indias forest will have expanded by 10%. C. Professor Kauppi says it is possible to stop deforestation on the Earth. D.

66、about 50% of the fifty countries, biomass and carbon storage increased B. forest areas and biomass are still being lost in China C. Brazil is one of the worlds most populous nationsD.
