Scientists have created a tomato that can grow on salty water. The plant is the first crop of its kind ever produced in the world.

Its significance can not be overestimated. The new technology can help mankind solve the problem of feeding its ever-expanding population. It is estimated that by 2025 the world population will amount to more than 9 billion, an increase of 3 billion over 2,000. Each day 240,000 more people are born, ready to be fed like the rest of us. Unfortunately, not all the land on Earth can be used to grow crops for humans. About 24. 7 million acres of land is lost to agriculture each year because the land has become too salty. The main cause of the problem is irrigation(灌溉). When farmers water their crops, salts in the water also enter the soil. Over time, salts such as sodium(苏打) and calcium(钙) build up to such a point that they severely harm the growth of crops. Salts destroy most plants' ability to draw up water through their roots. But, the new variety of tomato produced by American and Canadian scientists can store salts in its leaves so that the fruit doesn't taste salty. Researchers hope this technology will enable areas of poor-quality land to become productive. And they can feed some of the world's growing population.26. The new potato created by scientists can ___________. A. grow under the sea B. grow on salty water C. grow in the river D. grow in the lake 27. According to the passage, the world population in 2000 was __________.

A. more than 9 billion

B. 3 billion

C. more than 6 billion D. about 8 billion

28. may be one reason for the problem of feeding the ever-expanding population.

A. That not all the land on Earth can be used to grow crops B. That there are rich countries and poor countries C. That the world is running out of water D. That tomato stores salts in its leaves 29. ___________ mainly leads to salty land. A. Expanding population B. The growth of crops

C. Farming

D. Irrigation 30. Salts are harmful to plants because _______________.

A. they make the fruit taste salty

B. they destroy most plants' ability to draw up water through roots C. they enable areas of poor-quality land to become productive D. they enter the soil 得分 评卷人 三、词汇与结构(每题1分，共25分)
