A

National legislators from Heilongjiang province, which is China’s principal producer of non-genetically-modified soybeans, are calling for a law to set up a special zone where the planting and processing of GM plants is prohibited. Deputies to the country’s top legislature hope such a law would preserve ecological diversity, benefit farmers who plant non-GM soybeans and avoid “possible contamination” of the soybean crop by GM plants.

The size of the proposed special zone would restore the province’s soybean growing acreage to its 2010 level of 4.3 million hectares, said national lawmaker Tan Zhijuan. Tan said universities in Heilongjiang and beyond should have first call on the non-GM soybean products coming out of the special zone.

“Heilongjiang, China’s largest producer of non-GM soybeans, has seen its planting acreage downsized to a tipping point of 1.4 million hectares,” said Tan, who is a veteran agricultural specialist. “This represents a drop of a staggering 66 percent in five years following the influx of much cheaper GM imports.” Nationwide, China imported 81.7 million tons of soybeans－mostly GM ones－last year, which meant more than 80 percent of its soybean consumption was met by imports, said Tan. “China has the world’s most diversified wild soybean resources,” Tan said. As a responsible country, China must protect living genetic material including seeds and tissue used for plant breeding, preservation and research, Tan said.

Although the planting of GM soybeans has not been detected so far in Heilongjiang province, there are risks that GM seeds might find their way to the fields, for example, through leakage from road transportation, Tan warned.

She said the key to establishing the non-GM soybean protection zone would be to build up an industrial chain that streamlines the planting, processing and sales of non-GM soybeans. This non-GM industrial chain will differentiate itself from that for GM products and improve the competitive edge of the domestic soybean industry to target its niche market, Tan said.

Maine Lobster Becoming Popular in China

The American seafood staple of Maine lobster, or “lobsta” as they say in Maine, is becoming very popular on Asian dining tables. Maine lobsters were a featured course at last year’s state dinner when Chinese President Xi Jinping visited the White House. Now, the creatures with claws are becoming a big export to Asia.

The lobster’s home is in the Atlantic Ocean, anywhere from Newfoundland in Canada to North Carolina in the United States. But nearly 90 percent of the fishery activity happens in the state of Maine.

And the prices for fresh lobster have risen to a higher level. “Three years ago, the price was mediocre. We averaged around $2.50 to $3 per pound (or nearly half a kilogram) for the year,” said Chris Welch, a lobster boat captain. “This year, the price has been excellent. It’s better than I can remember in a lot of years.”

During one morning, a lobster order was being prepared for shipment to Hong Kong. The biggest challenge in shipping was logistics. Shippers have only 36 hours from the time lobsters are packed until arrival in China. Any lobster arriving after that time loses quality.

American shellfish(贝类动物) exports have grown rapidly in recent years. More than 23,000 kilograms of that type of seafood is exported to Asia every week via air. “We primarily export lobsters to Asia; probably about 80 percent to China and the other 20 percent to some other Asian countries,” said lobster dealer Stephanie Nadeau, “The countries of Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Korea and Japan are big lobster fans.” He said.

24. According to the text, we can know that most fishing of lobsters is done in ________.

A. Newfoundland B. North Carolina C. Maine D. Atlantic Ocean

25. Which of the following statements is False according to the text?

A. China is the largest lobster import country in Asia.

B. American shellfish imports have grown sharply in recent years.

C. The lobsters can only stay high-quality within one and a half days while being shipped

D. In a way, the popularity of lobsters in Asia has something to do with President Xi Jinping’s visit to the White House

26. Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?

A. Maine Lobsters Becoming Popular in China

B. President Xi’s Visit to the White House

C. The Price of Lobsters Higher5 than Before

D. Sales of American Shellfish Growing Rapidly Worldwide

27. The text is most probably taken from ________.

A. a research paper B. a geography textbook C. an advertisement D. a newspaper report

C.

Tired of doing the same thing week in and week out with the same people having the same conversations? You are in a friendship rut(常规), but help is at hand.

Get the spark back:

☆ Do something different together, for example, joining a club or an evening class. It will occupy you both and give you something new to talk about.

☆ Make some new mates: They will inject new life into your circle of friends and offer fresh ideas for things to do and places to hang out.

☆ Try new things out to different places: Check your local “What’s on” guide for events and give them a try. If the nights turn out top be disasters, at least you will have something to laugh about.

☆ Take a break down on the time you spend together: It may simply be that you are living in each other’s pockets. This is bound to wear thin
