In the next five years or so, scientists will be able to grow a liver. ◆ Come Back to Life Time: by 2070 Forecaster: Dr. Robert Lanza from US Advanced Cell Technology Company We will be able to have zoos for extinct animals in the future. Lanza was able to get usable DNA from the bodies of animals that had been dead for 25 years. Lanza inserted it into cow eggs, and nine months later, a cloned animal was born.

The top of these trees is called the canopy. Scientists want to learn about the canopy. They want to learn about everything that lives there. It has not been easy to get to the top of these trees. Reaching the Top Meg knows a lot about trees. She is sometimes called Canopy Meg. Meg has always liked trees. When she was a child, she made tree houses. She rescued birds that had fallen from their nests. Now, she has climbed to the top of trees all over the world. A Walkway Through the Trees A walkway is like a bridge. It goes between the trees. A walkway is safe and it doesn’t harm the trees. Walkways in the rainforest were Meg’s idea. Now, they are used by many people. A walkway, however, cannot be made at the very top of the trees. The very top is where many scientists want to go. The Canopy Raft Meg has reached the very top of the trees. One way she loves to reach the top is by a raft. The raft is very light. It is filled with air. It has a huge net on it. A hot air balloon drops the raft onto the trees. Scientists can stand on the raft and look into the trees. Tower Cranes A tower crane is another way to get to the top. The crane can go up and down. It can go above the treetops. It can go all the way down to the ground, too. Scientists are learning about life in the canopy. They have learned that there are millions of insects in these treetops. They have learned that these insects are eating the leaves. Adventures in the Treetops Meg and her sons have had many adventures in trees. They have slept in trees. They have even eaten bugs. Meg’s job is to keep finding out more.

Online learning platforms will become more advanced, allowing students to have classes from anywhere in the world. Virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) will be used to create immersive learning experiences. For example, in a history class, students can take a virtual tour of ancient Egypt. They can see the pyramids and the Sphinx as if they are really there. In a science class, students can use AR to do experiments. They can see the chemical reactions right in front of them, which makes learning more fun and effective. Moreover, personalized learning will be more popular. Teachers will use big data to understand each student’s learning habits and needs, and then provide personalized learning plans. This way, students can learn at their own pace and improve their learning efficiency. 46．What will online learning platforms be like in the future? A．They will be less popular. B．They will be more advanced. C．They will only be used by a few students. D．They will be the same as today. 47．How will VR and AR be used in education? A．To make students play games.

Instead of raising animals on farms, meat can be made in a laboratory. This can reduce the use of land and water, and it’s also better for the environment. For example, a lot of water is needed to raise cows for beef. With lab - grown meat, this problem can be solved. Another idea is 3D - printed food. With a 3D food printer, people can “print” food in different shapes and tastes. You can print a cake that looks like a famous building or a piece of chocolate in the shape of your favorite animal. This not only makes food more interesting but also allows people to create their own unique food. 51．What is one new way to produce food in the future? A．Raising more animals on farms.

What’s more, people teach them to perform (表演) in the shows. They are very smart, so they can perform well and make people happy. Unluckily, the number of many animals like dolphins is becoming smaller and smaller. Some of them become endangered animals. Why? First of all, people cut down trees for buildings. It makes some animals lose their homes. Second, farmers use too much pesticide (农药). Third, to make money, some people kill them. I think we shouldn’t cut down trees. We should ▲ more trees to save the animals’ homes. And we should establish some places to protect them.

The top of these trees is called the canopy. Scientists want to learn about the canopy. They want to learn about everything that lives there. It has not been easy to get to the top of these trees. Reaching the Top Meg knows a lot about trees. She is sometimes called Canopy Meg. Meg has always liked trees. When she was a child, she made tree houses. She rescued birds that had fallen from their nests. Now, she has climbed to the top of trees all over the world. A Walkway Through the Trees A walkway is like a bridge. It goes between the trees. A walkway is safe and it doesn’t harm the trees. Walkways in the rainforest were Meg’s idea. Now, they are used by many people. A walkway, however, cannot be made at the very top of the trees. The very top is where many scientists want to go. The Canopy Raft Meg has reached the very top of the trees. One way she loves to reach the top is by a raft. The raft is very light. It is filled with air. It has a huge net on it. A hot air balloon drops the raft onto the trees. Scientists can stand on the raft and look into the trees. Tower Cranes A tower crane is another way to get to the top. The crane can go up and down. It can go above the treetops. It can go all the way down to the ground, too. Scientists are learning about life in the canopy. They have learned that there are millions of insects in these treetops. They have learned that these insects are eating the leaves. Adventures in the Treetops Meg and her sons have had many adventures in trees. They have slept in trees. They have even eaten bugs. Meg’s job is to keep finding out more.
