They are a large source of the greenhouse gases that are driving climate change. Now scientists have shown the pollution from cows can be reduced by adding a little seaweed (海藻) to their food. Recently, the researchers from the University of California studied 21 cows on a farm for about five months. They taught the cows to get their food from inside a special hood, which allowed the scientists to know the amount of the methane the cows were giving off. They used a small amount of seaweed, which they mixed with the cows’ food. The consequences were surprisingly good. In some cases, the cows produced 82% less methane. The improvement depended on the kind of food the cows were given. Even the worst-polluting cows produced 33% less methane. Over the five months, the scientists didn’t see any signs that the cows’ stomachs were getting used to the seaweed and starting to produce more methane again. What’s more, the cows that were led seaweed gained just as much weight as the other cows. But there are still some big problems with the idea of feeding cows seaweed. For one thing, there’s not enough seaweed to feed all of the cows in the world. So farmers would have to figure out a way to grow lots of seaweed. A bigger problem is that for most of their lives, cows live in the fields,where they eat grass. That means there’s no chance to feed them seaweed every day. Still, as the study shows, something as simple as feeding cows seaweed can help reduce some of the pollution causing the climate crisis. 4. Why did the researchers carry out the study? A. To improve the cows’ living conditions. B. To test the effects of the seaweed. C. To measure the amount of methane produced by cows.D. To discover healthier grass to reduce the pollution from cows. 5. What’s the third paragraph mainly about? A. The background of the subjects. B. The process of the research. C. The content of the experiment. D. The results of the study. 6. What is the biggest challenge in the researchers’ opinion? A. Seaweed is pretty rare in the world. B. It’s hard to mix seaweed with grass. C. Cows can hardly have daily access to seaweed. D. Cows fed with seaweed gained weight easily. 7. What is the author’s attitude towards the findings? A. Doubtful. B. Positive. C. Unclear. D. Negative. 【4~7 题答案】 【答案】4. B 5. D 6. C 7. B C With much of the world locked down to prevent the spread of COVID-19, many of us are looking for heartening news we can get. Global air pollution has been reduced. Even the number of wildlife seems to increase. But these developments seem so slow. We may, however, be able to take lasting comfort from one fact during this period: The number of people growing their own food at home has increased. More people are thinking about where their food comes from and how easily
