His family owns a scuba company. For the past

36、three summers, Luca has added gardening to his underwater activities. He helps run Nemos Garden, a project to grow plants in the sea.From May through September, Luca and other divers are working on Nemos Garden in the Mediterranean Sea, 150 feet from the coast of Noli, Italy. Five large balloon-like

37、 objects, called biosphere(生物圈), hold plants such as beans and strawberries. The biosphere is filled with air and placed 20 feet below the surface. “My father came up with the idea because he loves gardening very much,” Luca said.According to Luca, the sea is a good place to grow plants because unde

38、rwater temperatures remain stable, changing little from day to night. The biosphere acts like greenhouses. Inside the air-filled biosphere, fresh water keeps evaporating(蒸发), providing the plants with a good environment to grow in. “We have already seen the plants, grow faster and better,” Luca says

39、. “And there are fewer storms that can knock down the biosphere during the summer.”Luca hopes Nemos Garden will provide a new way of growing crops. “There is not enough land on the Earth,” he says. “And in many developing countries, bad conditions make it difficult for crops to grow.”Though the proj

40、ect has just started, Nemos Garden has achieved success and is moving to different areas. “Were going to try growing other plants,” Luca says. “We hope to set up biosphere in other countries.

43、ably because the guest-host relationship in China is much different from that in some Western countries.In China,guests are almost like gods.Whenever I enter a Chinese persons home,there is always fruit on the table for me,and someone is quick to bring me a cup of tea or water.In the West,things are

44、 different.Acting according to the hosts way of doing things is usual behavior for a guest.And there are lots of things Westerners find difficult to adapt to.For example,my mother-in-law doesnt smoke,so when I see some of her guests smoking in her house,I as a non-smoker,would feel unhappy.Usually I

45、 want to stop them directly.But I must realize that,to be a good host in China,she mustnt do that.However,in most North America homes,you should not smoke.If you really want to smoke,you could ask,“Is it OK if I smoke?”But dont be surprised if you get a “no”.In our culture,its not considered rude at

46、 all.In China,you probably wont need to change the guest-host relationship very much because you will probably only be the host,and Chinese are naturally very good hosts.But if Western hosts invite you to their house,try not to be too surprised if their style of treating you is not what you have exp
