We grow vegetables on land and in space. How about growing them underwater Some scientists find underwater vegetables are richer in nutrition than those grown on land. They may help to solve future food shortages in places without enough water and land.
Look at Nemo’s Garden in Italy. It is the world’s first underwater greenhouse. It is made up of six big plastic bubbles.

Water the vegetables
Sunlight goes through the water and warms the wet air in each bubble. Salt goes out. Freshwater is left and waters the plants.

Harvest the vegetables
People swim inside the bubbles. They put plants in clean plastic bags and bring them back to land.

Do you know about Pablo Picasso He is a famous painter from Spain. October 25th is his 142nd birthday this year.
Some people say Picasso’s paintings look like doodles. Why did he paint like this “It took me four years to paint like Raphael, but a lifetime to paint like a child,” Picasso said.
Picasso was a genius. As a child, he was better at drawing than many adults. He created his first painting at the age of 8. When he turned 13, he finished a painting of his family. It looked very lifelike, just like a work by the great Italian painter Raphael.
As Picasso grew older, he tried new ideas. He painted an item from lots of different angles all in the same picture. So, you see the front, the back and the sides of something at the same time. Picasso also used many shapes, such as circles and triangles in his paintings. In this way, his works look simple but creative, just like a child’s drawings.
“Every child is an artist,” Picasso once said.
Picasso saw his works get into the Louvre while he was still alive. He was one of the first artists in the world to do this.
根据短文内容, 回答下列问题。每题答案不超过8个词。
1. In which year was Pablo Picasso born
2. Why do Picasso’s paintings look like doodles
3. When did Picasso create his first painting
4. How did Picasso make his works simple but creative
5. Where did Picasso’s works go when he was still alive
