        Tony Wrench and his wife Faith, wearing the traditional woolly jacket, have set up their home in the shadows of Preseli Mountains.

        They built the house in the winter of 1997 with the dream of living what they call“low-impact lives”. Their dream is to get close to nature, have little pollution and prove they can change the world. But their action was stopped almost a year later by the local government. Eventually, a new rule about environment protection was brought and the government encouraged the couple to carry on their “low-impact lives”.

        The completed house is built around a frame of 200 firs(冷杉木)and made entirely of natural materials, in a style that is part-native American, part-ancient Celt. Mr. Wrench said this house was more like a sort of large basket.  The most expensive part of the building was the rubber (橡胶 ) pond-liner for the roof at ￡650—all in it cost a grand total of￡3, 000, the labor being supplied by the couple and a few good friends. The idea is to try to make the most of the natural resources around them, reducing their impact as much as possible on the environment.

        Electricity is generated from three solar panels on the roof and a small windmill. Food is mostly home-grown (自产的) and they even make their own wine from a vine（藤）on the roof. Drinking water comes from the mountain stream and hot water is more or less on-tap through a back-boiler system fixed up to the back of the fire by the old whisky barrel(桶).

        Waste is dealt with by being rotted, which in turn provides fertilizer for the corns and vegetables etc. . They are by no means tired of life; on the contrary they like it. Mr. Wrench in particular likes nothing better than a nice hot bath. They wait for enough wind to charge the laptop so they can watch a DVD in the evening.

        Their life is not a challenge of existence; they say—just an attempt to keep their footsteps on the planet as light as possible.

    55. What can we know from the passage?

    A. Mr. Wrench planned to run a wine factory when he was young.

    B. Mr. Wrench and Faith love their house and have been in it for twenty years.

    C. Mr. Wrench and Faith’s behavior once was forbidden by the local government.

    D. Mr. Wrench and Faith can’t watch TV in their house because there’s no electricity.

    56. From the text we learn that the couple’s house______.

    A. cost them 3, 650 pounds in all

    B. is only made of about 200 firs

    C. is not strong enough to resist the wind

    D. was built by them and some of their friends

    57. The food that the couple eat is mostly______.

    A. produced by themselves

    B. bought from a supermarket

    C. offered by the government

    D. grown on the roof of their house

    58. According to the passage, the waste is______.

    A. dealt with to help crops grow better

    B. thrown away

    C. buried deeply

    D. sold to other farmers

                                                      Yuan Longping, China's Most Famous"Farmer"
         It says every scientist cherishes a childhood dream indicating his or her future success, but for Yuan
    Longping, dubbed (授予称号) as "father of hybrid rice", the dream is that he cultivates rice as plump as peanuts, and farmers can relax in the cool shadow of big rice plants.
         Yuan,71,won a 5 million yuan State Supreme Science and Technology Award today, known as the Nobel
    Prize in China, for his outstanding achievements in breeding high yield-Hybrid rice, which has substantially
    increased China's grain output.
         Yuan came up with the idea of hybridizing rice for the first time in the world in 1960s.Since then,50
    percent of China's total rice cultivation fields have grown such rice, which added some 300 billion kilograms to
    the country's grain output.
          Furrows (皱纹) grown on his sunburnt face, a slim figure and coiled-up trousers legs would confuse
    foreign reporters who came to interview the most famous scientist in China, who would rather be called "a
    farmer". Indeed, like many Chinese farmers, Yuan in his 70s and has devoted most of his life growing rice in
    paddy fields, but unlike those farmers, he reaps the seed from experimental fields only for hybridizing rice.
         The urbanite-turned-farmer graduated from Southwest Agriculture College in 1953 has his name related to
    the world's most advanced agricultural technology. Four minor planets, a listed seed company's and a science
    college in China were named after him, which were the first time that a Chinese scientist's name is valued for its intellectual assets.
         By lending his name to the Longping High-tech, a seed company, Yuan obtained a 5 per cent stake, or 2.5
    million shares worth 2 million yuan, in the firm. However, Yuan said his research requires the lifestyle of a
    farmer, or rather a migrating farmer, as he has conducted extensive research related to the cultivation of new
    strains of hybrid rice"Super Hybrid Rice" in some 10 provinces.
         In the year 1999,more than 300 billion kilograms of grain were increased from about 240 million hectares
    (公顷) of hybrid rice, which signified the success of his research. And this made Yuan firmly believe that
    China can surely feed her 1.2 billion population with her limited cultivated land.
         The "Super Rice" yields are 30 percent higher than those of common rice. The record yield of 17 055
    kilograms per hectare was registered in Yongsheng County in Yunnan in 1999.But even after that achievement
    Yuan won't take a break. He has a dream, more realistic than that of his young age, that popularizing new
    strains of grain with higher yields around the world, can eliminate starvation on earth.
          The UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) has vowed to get involved in the work of spreading the
    coverage of Yuan's high-yield hybrid rice, which it considers the best way to increase the world's grain output.
         The FAO's 1991 statistics show that 20 percent of the world's rice output was yielded from 10 percent of
    the world's rice fields, which grow hybrid rice."If the new strain was sown in the rest of the rice acreage, the
    present grain output around the world can be more than doubled. This can be a solution to the grain shortage,"
    the unselfish scientist.
         In 1980,Yuan went to the United States at the invitation of the International Rice Research Institute to share
    his knowledge about the cultivation technology of hybrid rice. He was also employed in 1991 as the chief
    consultant of FAO to bring his research methods to other countries. With the help of Chinese scientists, the
    acreage (面积) of hybrid rice in Viet Nam and India increased to 200 000 hectares and 150 000 hectares in
    1999, respectively.
         The rice research costs time to prove its value. At the age of 43,Yuan cultivated the world's first hybrid
    rice. At that time the country's grain yield was about 4500 kilogram per hectare."The natural disaster and policy miscarriage further deteriorated starvation in China by then," Yuan recalled tearfully.
         This is his motivation to stimulate his research. Largely due to his scientific progress, China's total rice
    output rose from 5.69 billion tons in 1950 to 19.47 billion tons last year. The growth rate of rice output far
    exceeded the population growth speed.
         Some people estimate Yuan's actual fortune might amount to more than 100 million ?yuan? (12 million
    U.S.dollars),making him one of the richest people in China. But he doesn't know for sure himself, for he seems
    not to care about his own assets than the rice harvest. Some people asked him to move the focus of his
    research from improving amounts of hybrid rice to the quality and taste, which would be easier to do. But, the
    stubborn academician (学者) insisted that the amount of hybrid rice's per unit yield still outweighs the quality,
    for his foremost task is to improve the grain reserve in developing countries.
