C American farmers are using an ancient tree from India to produce beans for making protein- rich foods and biofuels(生物燃料).The tree is called Pongamia(水黄皮). Farmers in the southem state of Florida have found Pongamia trees grow well there too.They have now replaced citrus()trees,which have long faced major struggles with disease. Pongamia trees like hot temperatures and can survive in dry or rainy conditions.They also do not require special chemicals to kill insects and other life that might threaten growth.Climate and disease have little effect on Pongamia trees.They are so strong that they can survive in the terrible situations even without much care. Pongamia trees can produce small brown beans.The beans can be used in the production of several products,including cooking oil and protein-rich foods.The beans can also be used to produce a kind of biofuel,mostly for airplanes. Unlike oranges and other citrus fruits,the beans do not require much effort to pick.Instead, 英话试看 第4页共10要 they can be collected with a machine that shakes the trees to make them fall to the ground.A San Francisco-based company has invented a process that removes something from the beans that gives them a bad taste,allowing the beans to be used for food production.

The targeted elephants were among the largest,oldest bulls from the cross-border population studied by Kenya's 51-year Amboseli Elephant Research Project,the longest study of elephants in the world.Unlike in Tanzania,hunting elephants has been banned in Kenya for 50 years.Until now, except for hunting in 1994.permitted hunters in Tanzania have not targeted this population,which is known as one of the last gene pools for enormous ivory()and the source of the largest tusks()ever collected.Moving forward,Tanzania should stop issuing hunting permits that lead to the killing of these cross-border elephants. Because it takes about 35 years for a male elephant to attain the size and experience to breed 黄语试看 第5页共10页 anually,the majority of calves are fathered by the same few older males sought by hunters.These older animals also form the core structure of male society,initiating and coordinating the movemendivitesof closely bonded individuals.Studied since their births in the 1970sand 1980s,the bull elephants killed were not frightened by vehicles holding tourists or researchers, making them easy targets for hunters. As conservation scientists,many of whom currently work or have worked in the past on the Amboseli Elephant Research Project,we appeal to Tanzania to recognize the scientific value of this cross-border population of elephants and work together with Kenya to develop a harmonized conservation strategy that formalizes a zero-elephant hunting quota()and the promotion of ecotourism.Alive,these"super tuskers"have great biological,economic,and social value;once they are shot,their contribution ends. The Tanzania Wildlife Management Authority is expected to announce.the next seasons unsustainable quota or"take"of these rare individuals in July.By declining to provide any permits for the region into which this population migrates,Tanzania can join Kenya in protccting them and giving them the space to move freely. 32.What makes the Amboseli Elephant Research Project special?

D.It has collected the largest elephant tusks. 33.What is the main coneem over the killing of cross-border elephants? A.It disturbs the social structure and movements of the elephant herd. B.It changes the way of male elephants feeding young calves. C.It threatens the relationship between Kenya and Tanzania. D.It disobeys interational rules on cross-border species. 34.What do we know about the elephants killed in Tanzania? A.They were the largest and oldest bulls. B.They were easily scared off by tourists. C.They were studied when grown to a large size. D.They were known for their large ivory and tusks. 35.What do the conservation scientists mainly suggest?
