The next (绣球花) you grow could really save your life. A biologist at Colorado State University has taught plant proteins how to spot exp/osfves1 (炸药) .
Picture this at an airport: A terrorist rolls through the sliding doors of a station with a bomb packed into his luggage. All of a sudden,the leafy,green hydrangea ringing the gates goes white 往s a sheet. That's the proteins inside the plants telling the authorities that they* ve picked up the chemical trace of the terrorist's explosive.
“Plants can't run and hide,” says June Medford,the biologist who's spent the last seven years figuring out how to get the plant to fight against terrorism. “If an insect comes by,it has to respond to it. And it already has its own particular way to respond.”
That would be the “receptor (受体)” proteins in its DNA. which respond naturally to threats. If an insect chews on a leaf,for instance,the plant releases a series of chemical signals called terpenoids,Medford says,that thickens the surface of the leaf in defense.
Medford and her team designed a computer model to direct the receptors: Basically,the computer program instructs the protein to react when it comes in contact with chemicals found in explosives or common air or water pollutants.
Right now,Medford's labs have genetically designed plants going white when they come into contact with explosives. But that's in a research lab,where the amount of light is constant.
Medford says her goal is to get her plants as sensitive as a dog's nose. But there is one big problem: Medford probably thinks it's not easy to get the plants to react to ammonium nitrate,a common chemical used for home-made bombs.

A. change color B. produce flowers
C. make its leaves thinner D. give off a special smell

11. What do we learn about Medford's technology?
A. It will come into use in two years.
B. It has been studied for seven years.
G. It is chiefly based on medical science.
D. It can help spot ammonium nitrate easily.
12. What would be the best title for the text?
A. Fight against terrorism in your garden
B. Plants know how to respond to threats
C. Biologist develops bomb-spotting plants
D. Plant proteins hav^ been used to attract insects
