6、e day in 1963, a dolphin named Elvar and a famous astronomer, Carl Sagan, were playing a little game. The astronomer was visiting an institute which was looking into the way dolphins communicate with each other. Sagan was standing on the edge of one of the tanks where several of these friendly, high

Scientists dont agree on this.A language is not just a collection of sounds, or even words. A language has a structure and what we call a grammar. The struc

11、ture and grammar of a language help to give it meaning. For example, the two questions “Who loves Mary?” and “Who does Mary love?” mean very different things. If you stop to think about it, you will see that this difference doesnt come from the words in the question but from the difference in struct

12、ure. That is why the question “Can dolphins speak?” cant be answered until we find out if dolphins not only make sounds but also arrange them in a grammatical order which affects their meaning.16The astronomer was not interested in the way dolphins communicate with each other.RightWrongCNot mentione

Their work may enable abandoned farms to become productive once more.Tim Flowers and Tony Yeo, from Sussex Universitys School of Biological Sciences, have spent several years researching how crops, such as rice, could be made

The aim is to breed this capability into crops, starting with ric

28、e.It is estimated that each year more than 100 hectares （公顷） of agricultural land are lost because salt gets into the soil and stunts （妨碍生长）plants. The problem is caused by several factors. In the tropics, mangroves （红树林） that create swamps （沼泽） and traditionally formed barriers to sea water have been cut down. In the Mediterranean, a series of droughts have caused the water table to drop, allowing sea water to seep （渗透） in. in Latin America, irrigation often causes problems when water is evap
