ben novak is working to bring the birds back. here, he explains to us why we should bring passenger pigeons back from extinct.the passenger pigeon is not the bird that you probably know. its been gone from the world for100 years. it means that few living people have ever seen one flying in the sky.the passenger pigeon lived differently from other birds in america-in flocks(群) made up millions of birds. they darkened the sky when they flew in the air. one reason to bring passenger pigeons back to life is that it would be wonderful to see a flock that big. it would also be cool to see an extinct animal.but its not just about doing something cool. huge flocks of passenger pigeons played a key role in shaping forests. the weight of so many birds resting in the trees broke many branches（树枝）. this allowed more sunlight to reach the forest floor, which helped more plants grow.the birds also ate a large number of plants. that influenced which trees grew in the forest. if we bring back the passenger pigeon, it would play an important role in shaping forest once again.44. scientists ben novak is working to_. a . learn more about the forest. b. find more birds in the forest. c. bring back the passenger pigeon. d. work out the number of pigeons.45. when did passenger pigeon become extinct? a. 10 years ago. b. 50 years ago. c. 100 years ago. d. 500 years ago.46. how did the passenger pigeon live? a. in flocks. b. in paris. c. by resting in dark forests. d. by resting in cool places.47. how did the passenger pigeon help forests? a. by helping more plants grow. b. by keeping many birds away. c. by staying on the forest floor. d. by preventing sunlight.ckids dont have a voice. they have no way to share their ideas. tedx youth is a locally organized event, where live talks and recorded videos are shared with the community(社区). tedx youth is always held on childrens day every year. it brings together big ideas from, and for kids. more importantly, it encourages kids to share their ideas with the world.“age is but a number. youre not too young to change the world. planning an event alongside young people makes you realize that kids have ideas that an adult might usually not think of,” said one tedx youth speaker. another speaker said, “what i have come to realize is that no matter where you live or how old you are, everyone is eager to be someone great.”organizing a tedx youth event shows that kids are able to do much more than whats expected. they truly take this event and make it even more than what everyone hopes it will be. “the fact that youth, just like me, had planned and run the event shocked me most,” said one volunteer. “i thought the event was surprising. i couldnt believe that kids of my age made the event happen.”there are several ways to take part in tedx youth. the easiest way is to become a speaker, if you think your idea is worth spreading. another way is to attend an event. and lastly, you can become a tedx youth reporter. reporters take pictures from the event and post them on line, and send news about what is happening at event, interview some of the speakers, and write articles about the event. “it was wonderful to see how youth team members were with the whole event and how thankful they were (and still are!) to be given such an unbelievable chance as being part of a tedx event,” said an organizer. tedx youth is welcoming kids from every culture who want to have a deeper understanding of the world. those who get involved with it believe in the power of ideas, which can change attitudes, lives and the world.48. what is the main purpose of holding a tedx youth event?a.to give kids a chance to record videos. b. to spread kids ideas all over the worldc. to raise money for the

office building in indias capital, the worlds smoggest city, kamal meattle has a special way of cleaning the air: a greenhouse with 400 common plants. meattle has 800 other plants spread throughout its lower six floors, greening each room and hallway. their job: remove harmful things from the outdoor air.meattle uses rainwater to water the trees so that they can grow faster and take in more pollutants. hes asking indias new government to require rainwater farming and to paint roofs, and buses, white. and hes pushing to build one of the worlds largest parks, complete with greenhouses.as meattle tells it, he really had no choice but to try something new. “my doctors told me to leave india in 1992,” he says, mentioning his breathing problem because of the citys air pollution. he decided to stay, trying instead to solve a society-wide problem thats become increasingly serious. “delhis unfit for living between october and march,” meattle says, noting how often its air pollution becomes “very unhealthy” or even “dangerous”. in fact, new delhis smog is now nearly three times worse than beijings. the who found that the city had the worlds dirtiest air, and the cities from second to fourth are also in india. indias indoor air pollution is even worse. the who says its indias second biggest killer, after high blood pressure, and results in 1.3 million deaths every year.but can plants really clean the air?nasa published several studies in the 1980s showing indoor plants could clean the air. it later tested the value of the plants to both clean air and recycle waste in building known as the biohome. other studies have also suggested that plants could help clean indoor air.wolverton, a nasa researcher, has been working in japan, where plants have been used to make 50 to 60 “ecological gardens(生态花园)” in hospitals. he says theres growing interest in south korea and china.not everyone believes that. “i certainly would not count on plants to clean indoor air” to get them to work, youd need too many plants, ” says john girman. he says a 1,500-square-foot house would need 680 plants and the result would be “an indoor forest”.“we have an air treatment plant,” meattle says of his idea. the result, he adds, is fewer worker sick days, great productivity, and air as clean as that in davos, switzerland.52. what did meattle do after the doctors advised him to leave india?a. he went abroad between october and march.b. he raised money for growing pants in his office.c. he tried to solve the indoor air pollution problem.d. he called on people to care
