Dr Rajaram wn this award fr successfully crssbreeding (雜交) the winter and spring wheat (小麥) varieties, which have been tw distinct and islated gene pls (分離的基因庫) since the beginning f farming. And because f this breakthrugh, the scientist has been able t breed ver 480 wheat varieties.
Brn in Varanasi in 1943, Dr Rajaram lived with his family ff a plt f land grwing wheat, rice and maize. “After my educatin here in India, I went ff t Australia fr my PhD and sn I jined CIMMYT (the Internatinal Maize and Wheat Imprvement Centre) in Mexic, where my career as a plant breeder started,” said Dr Rajaram.
“Every cuntry is unique — there are climate systems, culture, the financial situatin and each f the natins I visited needed a different set f slutins,” said Dr Rajaram. His slutins became part f what is widely described as the wrld’s first “wheat netwrk”, a glbal exchange f “genetic infrmatin and innvatins amng researchers”. His varieties f wheat were strng in nutritin, delayed (延遲) the attack f sme plant diseases and were able t survive the severest f cnditins.
After nearly half a century in the field, Dr Rajaram said his wrk was still nt finished. “In science, yu never stp learning. I have been ding this all my life and I’ve never really had time fr anything else. As far as hbbies g, well, there’s a bit f music I like t listen t and that’s pretty much it. I have been n a lng jurney f pushing the bundaries (邊界) f what’s pssible and tday, there’s still wrk left. Learning must never stp and the wrld must nt g hungry.”

The cnnectin between peple and plants has lng been the subject f scientific research. Recent studies have fund psitive effects. A study cnducted in Yungstwn,Ohi,fr example, discvered that greener areas f the city experienced less crime. In anther,emplyees were shwn t be 15% mre prductive when their wrkplaces were decrated with huseplants.
The engineers at the Massachusetts Institute f Technlgy(MIT)have taken it a step further changing the actual cmpsitin f plants in rder t get them t perfrm diverse,even unusual functins. These include plants that have sensrs printed nt their leaves t shw when they’re shrt f water and a plant that can detect harmful chemicals in grundwater. "We’re thinking abut hw we can engineer plants t replace functins f the things that we use every day,"explained Michael Stran, a prfessr f chemical engineering at MIT.
One f his latest prjects has been t make plants glw(發(fā)光)in experiments using sme cmmn vegetables. Stran’s team fund that they culd create a faint light fr three-and-a-half hurs. The light,abut ne-thusandth f the amunt needed t read by,is just a start. The technlgy, Stran said, culd ne day be used t light the rms r even t turn trees int self-pwered street lamps.
In the future,the team hpes t develp a versin f the technlgy that can be sprayed nt plant leaves in a ne-ff treatment that wuld last the plant’s lifetime. The engineers are als trying t develp an n and ff"switch"where the glw wuld fade when expsed t daylight.
Lighting accunts fr abut 7% f the ttal electricity cnsumed in the US Since lighting is ften far remved frm the pwer surce(電源)-such as the distance frm a pwer plant t street lamps n a remte highway-a lt f energy is lst during transmissin(傳輸).Glwing plants culd reduce this distance and therefre help save energy.
8. What is the first paragraph mainly abut?
A. A new study f different plants.
B. A big fall in crime rates.
C. Emplyees frm varius wrkplaces.
D. Benefits frm green plants.
9. What is the functin f the sensrs printed n plant leaves by MIT engineer?
A. T detect plants’ lack f water
B. T change cmpsitins f plants
C. T make the life f plants lnger.
D. T test chemicals in plants.
10 What can we expect f the glwing plants in the future?
A. They will speed up energy prductin.
B. They may transmit electricity t the hme.
C. They might help reduce energy cnsumptin.
D. They culd take the place f pwer plants.
11. Which f the fllwing can be the best title fr the text?
A. Can we grw mre glwing plants?
B. Hw d we live with glwing plants?
C. Culd glwing plants replace lamps?
D. Hw are glwing plants made pllutin-free?

Imagine yu’re at the supermarket checkut. Yu pay the cashier, lad yur fd int the cart, then take ne third f yur newly purchased items utside and thrw them int the trash. This may sund unbelievable, but millins f us wrldwide d this regularly, althugh in a mre nn-direct way.

Mst f its custmers are lw-incme families, r even cllege students wh find it difficult t affrd fd.“We ask ur custmers t pay what they feel in time, mney r skills. We d have peple cming with the intentin f paying and if it carries n like it des, it will pay fr the cst f the warehuse,” Smith explains.
Sme shps acrss Eurpe are als taking actin. France recently passed a law that says all supermarkets must nw dnate all f their unsld prduce t charities, while the Italian gvernment has als put similar measures in place. Hundreds f cafes that serve meals made frm surplus fd have been set up acrss the cntinent t, selling dishes at bttm prices r even giving them away fr free.
S what can we d t prevent ur dinner ending up in the bin? “Buy less. Or at least shp smarter,” said Smith. After all, the best place fr fd is in ur stmachs, nt the trash.
