Will there be enough food for all these people? Some scientists think fish farming might solve this problem. However, other scientists worry that fish farming could bring serious environmental problems.Fish farming is not a new thing. There were fish farms in China 3,000 years ago. Today, about one third of the fish we eat comes from fish farms.Most fish farms raise plant-eating fish. Popular kinds of plant-eating fish are carp, tilapia, and catfish. However, many fish farms are starting to raise meat-eating fish. A popular type of meat-eating fish is salmon. However, it takes up to 5 tons of wild fish to produce just 1 ton of farm-raised salmon. So if this continued, many types of wild fish could becomeextinct.Critics (评论家) of fish farming also say that farm-raised fish is unhealthy. They say there are dangerous chemicals (化学物质) in the fish. They also say fish farming pollutes the water. Some people say that the ways of farming being used now wont produce enough fish anyway. Instead of building fish farms in lakes or near the coast, they say that the fish farms could be moved far out into the ocean. In the future, fish farms might be large cages that move to the ocean.26 . Which of the following about fish farming is true?AIt is very popular around the world.BIt is a new thing in 2010.CIt appeared in China about thirty centuries ago.DIt can solve the problem of the worlds population.27 . _ is not a kind of plant-eating fish.ACarpBCatfishCTilapiaDSalmon28 .

His father was a poor doctor. Li Shizhen often saw that people fell ill. He decided to study medicine so that he could be able to help people.Li Shizhen read many books about medicine. He found many of the old medical books to be full of mistakes. So his wish was to write a new one.He did his best to study medical science.

In 1799, scientists studied works of art made at different times from 1,500 B.C. to the 1950s. Most of the people shown in these works are right-handed, so the scientists guessed that right-handedness has always been common through history. Today, only about 10% to 15% of the worlds population(人口) is left-handed.Why are there more right-handed people than left-handed ones? Scientists now know that a persons two hands each have their own jobs. For most people, the hand is used to find things or hold things. The right hand is used to work with things. This is because of the different work of the two sides of the brain. The right side of the brain, which makes a persons hands and eyes work together, controls the left hand. The left-side of the brain, which controls the right hand, is the centre for thinking and doing problems. These findings show that more artists should be left-handed, and studies have found that left-handedness is twice as common among artists as among people in other jobs.No one really knows what makes a person become right-handed instead of left-handed. Scientists have found that almost 40% of the people become left-handed because their main brain is damaged when they are born. However, this doesnt happen to everyone, so scientists guess there must be another reason why people become left-handed. One idea is that people usually get right-handed from their parents. If a person does not receive the gene(基因) for right-handedness, he/ she may become either right-handed or left-handed according to the chance and the people they work or live with.Though right-handedness is more common than left-handedness, people no more think left-handed people are strange or unusual. A long time ago, left-handed children were made to use their right hands like other children, but today they dont have to.41 . How many people in the world are left-handed now?ALess than one sixth.BMore than a half.CAbout 40%.DThe passage doesnt tell us.42 . According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?ANo one really knows what makes a person become right-handed.BLeft-handedness is cleverer than right-handedness.CToday children are not made to use their right hands only.DScientists think there must be some reason why people become left-handed.43 .
