Life in the city is quite different from ________ in the country.

Drawings of human colonies on other planets often picture the entire community under a glass or plastic bubble．The bubble is intended to create an atmosphere with adequate oxygen and other essential elements．But similar bubble-like structures have also been constructed on earth．One of the most famous, and controversial, is a site in the Arizona desert．

Biosphere 2, as it is called, was built not far from Tucson in 1984 and is now run by Columbia University．This huge（7,200,000-cubic-foot）glass and steel construction contains several separate ecosystems, including a desert, a rain forest, and a 900,000-gallon “ocean．” The climatic conditions-humidity, temperature, air quality-are regulated by sensors and can be adjusted as needed or desired．For example, a rainstorm can be created to increase the humidity．The adjustable features of Biosphere 2 make it an ideal location to perform experiments to help determine the effects of such climatic changes as global warming．

The current conditions at Biosphere 2 are vastly different from those in 1993, when eight people who had moved into the environment with great fanfare two years earlier moved out in failure．Though promising to be self-sufficient（自足的）, these “colonists” had so much trouble regulating the environment that they reportedly had food smuggled into them．Oxygen levels became dangerously low; most plants and animals died．In taking over the unsuccessful site, Columbia hopes to erase its notorious past by focusing on small research projects that gradually answer some of Biosphere 1’s — that is, Earth’s most basic environment questions．
