Now there are over 6 billion people on the earth. By the year 2050, the population may reach 12. 5 billion, and human beings may have no enough food to eat. So since 1983, scientists have begun to develop plants by changing their genetic material(遗传物质)in order to produce more food. It is possible to make new plants in this way. Foods from plants grown in this way are called GM foods(转基因食品).
These plants can be strong against plant diseases as well as help with our human beings diseases.
No one knows whether GM foods are good or bad for us because they are not natural. Because of this, some have strong feelings against GM foods. In 2050, people can only live by making GM foods. They may provide more food but they hurt people or their children in the future. However, rich countries as well as poor countries are interested in their use, and they are not going to go away. We may think about them in different ways. But if every country can take different measures to control the growth of the population, our human beings won’t face the serious problem.

With the rapid development of science and industry, our world has changed a lot. Many new things have appeared in our daily life. These make our life more convenient and make our communications more flexible.
For example, computers are very important to modern life. Some people hardly go to the shop in their spare time but they buy things on the Internet instead. Because they think the price of different kinds of clothes or living things is lower than that in shopping centers and huge markets. What’s more, their qualities are the same. At the same time, people can watch movies by the Internet instead of going to the cinema. People living or working in different places can see and talk with each other by computers, too. Some people are glad about these new ways of shopping and communicating.
Another example, computers can help us improve our reading a lot. Some people needn’t read books made of paper. Instead, they read them on small pocket computers because the computers can keep many different books in them at the same time. They don’t need to turn lots of pages and paper is saved as well. More and more electronic books are being used.

Farming in the USA today is very different from that 100 years ago. In those days, farmers did not have many machines to help them. They had animals. 16 This meant that farms were smaller than they are now. Farmers also worked in a different way in the past. In those days, farmers grew fruits and vegetables and kept cows, pigs and chickens to feed their families. 17
Farmers have a very special life in many ways. First of all, they can’t leave the job at the end of the day. They live on the farm and there is always work to do. Second, a lot of farm work is outdoors, so the weather is very important for farmers. 18 A lot of bad weather means farmers will lose money. Finally, farmers work with plants and animals. They understand nature better than other people do.
19 Spring is a time for planting. Farmers are busy getting the fields ready and then planting the seeds(种子). In summer, farmers must take good care of the plants. Some may need water. Other plants may have problems with insects or diseases. Then in fall, the fruits or plants are ready for picking. 20 Winter is a time for rest or for work on the farm machines.
根据材料内容,从下面五个选项中选出能填入文中空缺处的最佳选项,使短文意思通顺、内容完整。
A. Farm work changes with the seasons.
B. That is a very busy time for farmers.
C. But animals work slowly compared to machines.
D. It is also important for the success of their farms.
E. Today farmers grow things on the farms so they can sell them.
16.______ 17.______ 18.______ 19.______ 20.______

Changes in People’s Life
Great changes have taken place in people’s life in the past 20 years. In the past people kept in touch with friends mainly by sending letters. They would listen to the radio for news and other information. Children used to go to school by bike. A big family had to share small rooms.
Now people can talk to others by telephone or on the Internet at home. When they are free, they will watch the news and other programs on TV. And children usually go to school by bus. Some families are rich enough to live in big apartments.
