Australian scientists are trying to give kangaroo-style stomachs to cattle and sheep in order to cut the greenhouse gases they send out, which are thought to be responsible for global warming.

Thanks to special bacteria in their stomachs, kangaroo flatulence(肠胃气胀)contains no methane(甲烷)and scientists want to transfer that bacteria to cattle and sheep who produce large quantities of the harmful gas.

While the usual image of greenhouse gas pollution is a huge chimney pushing out carbon dioxide, animals at home contribute a surprisingly high percentage of total emissions in some countries. “Fourteen percent of emissions from all sources in Australia is from methane from cattle and sheep,” said Athol Kleve, a senior research scientist with the Queensland state government.

And if you look at another country such as New Zealand, which has got a much higher agricultural base, they're actually up around 50 percent, ” he said.

Researchers say the bacteria also make the digestive process much more efficient and could potentially save millions of dollars in feed costs for farmers. But it will take researchers at least three years to isolate (分离) the bacteria, before they can even start to develop a way of transferring it to cattle and sheep.

Another group of scientists, meanwhile, has suggested Australians should farm fewer cattle and sheep and just eat more kangaroos. People are still arguing about this, but about 20 percent of health-conscious Australians are believed to eat the national symbol already.“It's low in fat, it’s got high protein levels and it's very clean in the sense that basically it's the free-range (放养的) animal,” said Peter Amp of the University of New South Wales's institute of environmental studies.

1.Scientists try to give kangaroo-style stomachs to cattle and sheep to __________.

A. help them fight against different diseases.

B. reduce the amount of greenhouse gases.

C. get rid of the bacteria in their stomachs.

D. protect them from quantities of harmful gas.

2. The advantage of transferring the bacteria to cattle and sheep is that_____________.

A. it will take the researchers a long time.

B. cattle and sheep will eat more than usual.

C. it will help the farmers to save money.

D. the bacteria will make them grow quickly.

3. From this passage we can infer that___________.

A. scientists still don’t know how to transfer the bacteria to cattle and sheep.

B. people in Australia depend on kangaroos for food at the present time.

C. 14% of the greenhouse gases in New Zealand is from cattle and sheep.

D. nobody in Australia will be allowed to farm cattle and sheep in the future.

In the animal kingdom，weakness can bring about aggression in other animal．This sometimes happens with humans also．But I have found that my weakness brings out the kindness in people．I see it every day when people hold doors for me，pour cream into my coffee，or help me to put on my coat．And I have discovered that it makes them happy．

From my wheelchair experience，I see the best in people，but sometimes I feel sad because those who appear independent miss the kindness I see daily．They don’t get to see this soft side of others often；we try every way possible to avoid，showing our weakness，which includes a lot of pretending．But only when we stop pretending we’re brave or strong do we allow people to show the kindness that’s in them．

Last month，when I was driving home on a busy highway，I began to feel unwell and drove more slowly than usual．People behind me began to get impatient and angry，with some speeding up alongside me，homing(按喇叭)or even shouting at me．At the moment I decided to do something I had never done in twenty four years of driving．I put on the car flashlights and drove on at a really low speed．

No more angry shouts and no more horns!

When I put on my flashlights，I was saying to other drivers，“I have a problem here．I am weak and doing the best I can．”And everyone understood．Several times，I saw drivers who wanted to pass．They couldn’t get around me because of the stream of passing traffic．But instead of getting impatient and angry，they waited，knowing the driver in front of them was in some way weak．

Sometimes situations call for us to act strong and brave even when we don’t feel that way．But those are and far between．More often，it would be better if we don’t pretend we feel strong when we feel weak or pretend that we are brave when we are scared．

1.The author has discovered that people will feel happy when_______．

A．the offer their help

B．they receive others’ help

C．they feel others’ kindness

D．they show their weakness

2.The author feels sad sometimes because_________．

A．he has a soft heart

B．he relies much on others

C．some people pretend to be kind

D．some people fail to see the kindness in others

A．handle problems by ourselves

B．accept help from others

C．admit our weakness

D．show our bravery

4.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?

A．Wheelchair Experience． B．Weakness and Kindness．
