27、 in tall buildings to use the chute and recycle too.In Shantziss Hi-Rise Recycling System, a chute leads to a pie-shaped container with six boxes that can turn around when operated.

34、rs say drinking tea may help strengthen the bodys defense system against infection(传染病）. Doctors at Brigham and Womens Hospital in Boston, Massachusetts, did the study. The team studied a chemical found in black, green, oolong and pekoe tea. This chemical is an amino acid（氨基酸） called L-theanine. The
35、 scientists say it may increase the strength of gamma delta T cells. Thats the letter T, not the drink. Gamma delta T cells are part of the bodys defense.First, the researchers mixed some of these cells with antigens（抗原） found in the amino acid. Antigens help the body react to infection. Then the sc
36、ientists added some bacteria. Within twenty-four hours, the cells produced a lot of interferon（干扰素）, a substance that fights infection.

37、other people drank the same amount of instant coffee.
