songs”可知他是多产的作曲家。通读全文，我们也不难得出结论。bscientists from hebrew university in israeli，developed the sugary bait(诱饵) by combining fruit juice oils and boric acid(硼酸)the fruit juice catches the attention of the mosquitoes.boric acid kills the malaria parasite(寄生虫) they carry when they eat it.the scientists took the sweet bait of boric acid to the west african nation of mali.they sprayed(喷洒) it on plants near manmade ponds.villagers use water from the ponds during the dry season.but the area is also home to the mosquitoes that carry the most deadly malaria.the researchers also placed a sweetsmelling spray on grasses near other ponds.but that spray contained no boric acid.both substances also contained a substance that would mark any mosquito that came in contact with it.in this way the scientists could count the mosquitoes that fed on the bait.yosef schlein is an expert on insects that affect human health.professor schlein led the sweet bait research.he says 38 days of results show the sweet bait of boric acid proved very effective at killing mosquitoes.yosef schlein said，“in mali，we got down some 80%，the females，and 90% of the males.but the area is full of little ponds there，so it is impossible to stop mosquitoes from flying from an untreated pond to a treated pond.”at the ponds treated only with the sweetsmelling bait，professor schlein says，more than 75% of mosquitoes fed on the false bait.he says most people do not know that female mosquitoes feed on sweet plant nectar to survive.their blood feeding is part of reproduction.the israeli researchers now hope to develop a bait that is even more desirable to the malaria mosquitoes.boric acid is generally safe for human beings and other mammals.scientists might be able to develop a mosquito bait for enclosed spaces.boric acid has been used to kill other insects including cockroaches，termites and ants inside homes since the middle of last century.a report about the sweet bait of malaria mosquito was published in malaria journal.46why did the scientists spray the sugary bait on plants near the ponds?athere are mosquitoes near the ponds.bthere are too many insects on the plants.cvillagers get drinking water from the ponds.dthe sugary bait works better with water present.答案a解析细节理解题。根据第二段内容可知，研究者把甜味的诱饵喷洒在池塘边的植物上，因为很多携带致命疟疾病毒的蚊子在池塘边出没。47what plays a role in counting the mosquitoes feeding on the bait?athe fruit juice. ba certain substance.cboric acid. dsweet plant nectar.答案b解析细节理解题。根据第四段内容可知，甜味的诱饵中有一种物质，可以给来觅食的蚊子做上标记，这样能让研究者计算蚊子的数量。48how does yosef schlein prove the sweet boric acid bait is effective?ahe offers some examples.bhe provides some figures.che analyzes causes and effects.dhe lists some unknown facts.答案b解析推理判断题。根据第六、七段的内容可知，yosef schlein在文中提供了一些数字，证明了这种甜味诱饵能非常有效地杀死蚊子。49many mosquitoes are attracted to the false bait probably because_ait smells sweet bit tastes sugarycit looks like flowers dit is rich in nutrients答案a解析推理判断题。根据第七段的内容可知，雌性蚊子依赖采集植物的甜花蜜生存。可见，是诱饵发出的甜味儿吸引蚊子来觅食的。50what is authors attitude towards the future of the research of sweet bait?askeptical. bneutral.ccritical. dhopeful.答案d解析推理判断题。根据倒数第二段的内容可知，作者对这项研究的未来充满了希望和期待。cbritains seed bank，the only one in the world aiming to collect all of the planets wild plant species，has reached its goal of banking 10 percent by 2010.the millennium seed bank project，run by kew gardensone of the oldest botanical gardenswill officially deposit the 24，200th species on thursday，a pink，wild banana from china.more than 50 countries are now on board with kews giant task but vast places of the globe，including india and brazil，still need to join in and donate seeds，director paul smith said.the seed bank is one of the largest and most diverse in the world with more than 1.5 billion seeds.its goal is to help protect the planets biodiversity during a time of climate change.the wild banana seed is under threat of extinction(灭绝) in southwest china from agricultural development.it is a vital food source for asian elephants and important for growing bananas for human consumption.stored at minus20 degrees centigrade，the seeds can last for thousands of years and await the day that scientists hope never comeswhen the species no longer exist in the wild.it is a race against time，smith said，because in the last decade alone，20 plants held in the bank have already been wiped out in the wild.he estimates that between a third and a quarter will become extinct this century.“it is urgent and it is happening now.an area，the size of england，is cleared of primary vegetation(植被) every year.” smith said.because most of the worlds food and medicines come from nature，protecting wild plant species is quite important，scientists say.there are already many other seed banks safeguarding food crops，which only account for 0.6 percent of plant diversity.for kews next goalto collect a quarter of wild varieties by 2020the botanists need 10 million pounds a year，or a further 100 million pounds on top of the 40 million they have already been granted.51whats the final purpose of the britains seed bank?ato collect enough money for the project.bto safeguard food crops.cto protect wild plants from extinction.dto
