However,British scientists say that the fruit may disappear by 2050. One reason for this ts'climate change.Scientists at the University of Exeter collected numbers from 27 countries and areas that produce 86 percent of the world's bananas.They found that climate change has improved growing conditions in 21 of these countries.In the past 60 years,the production (has reached l.37 tons of bananas per hectare(公顷). Ten of the countries,including India,the world's biggest producer of bananas,will produce fewer bananas.By 2050,the fruit may die out.Shouldn't bananas grow more easily if it's hotter outside?However, if temperatures keep rising,this advantage will disappear.In fact,the perfect temperature for growing bananas is between 24 and 32C.If temperatures get too high,they will stop growing. Diseases are another danger to bananas.Unlike other plants,the bananas we grow come from shoot cuttngs(扦抽)rather than seeds(种子).This means that all banana plants have the same genotype(基因型) In other words,if a disease is able to kill one plant,it could kill them all. One serious disease is called Panama.Caused by fungus (in the soil,it spreads easily.It has spread across South Asia,Africa,the Middle East,and Australia.If one banana plantation meets the disease, it will take 30 years until it is able to grow bananas again.Scientists have yet to find a cure for this disease. 53.What does the underlined word"this"in Paragraph 2 refer to? A.Bananas taste good. B.Bananas may disappear by 2050. C.Many people like eating bananas. D.It's bard to refuse a banana 54.According to paragraph 3,what might happen if temperatures keep going too high? A.More countries will start to grow bananas. B.Bananas will grow better in most countries. C.Bananas will stop growing. D.Bananas won't be as tasty as before. 55.Which of the following is the structure of the passage? 0 ① 0 A. ②③ ④⑤ B.②③④ C.② ③④⑥ D②③ ④ )56.The story is written to. A.offer tips for growing bananas. B.explain why bananas may disappear C show people's love for bananas. D.describe the difficulties of growing bananas. D What can our ears do?Are there any differences between the left ear and the right ear?Scientists in Switzerland found that things sound different in two ears.The direction from which you hear sounds can influence how much you like them. The scientists invited 13 people to their study.They listened to different sounds from three directions: the front,left and right.During the study,their brains (were scanned at the same time. Sounds about good feelings,such as laughter,cause the strongest brain activity when they are heard from the left.All areas in the brain related to hearing are active.This means people may be happier when "good"sounds go in their left ear.This didn't happen when sounds about bad feelings,such as screams of being afraid,came from the lett.Also,the brain isn't usually as active when hearing sounds from the front or right.So next time you want to say sweet words to your friends,what about trying to speak in their left ear? However,scientists still don't know what causes this.In the future,they want to do more research about this,and also see if other body parts have such differences. Besides,some researchers have pointed out山hat humans have a special way of reacting to(对，.反应) sounds.For example,people are more careful when they hear sounds from the back.Also,sounds that travel toward a person may cause more fear than those traveling away.These can be explained by evolution () In the past,when humans lived in the wild,sounds that were getting closer or from the back were usually very dangerous. 1 CS扫描全能王 亿人幕在用的扫描A 57.It can cause the strongest brain activity when hearing A.sounds about bad feelings from the left B.sounds about good feelings from the left C.sounds about bad feelings from the rigut D.sounds about good feelings from the right 58.What can we learn from the article?
