Most of us probably live without
vegetables, but a world without chocolate? Now that would be hard! According to
chocolate makers it could happen if we don’t act soon.
There are two main causes of the
chocolate shortage --- chocolate’s growing popularity and less production of
cocoa, the plant from which chocolate is made. With more and more people in India and China loving chocolate, not much can be done about the first cause.
Therefore, the only thing we can do is to
increase cocoa production. However, new plant diseases and little rain in Ivory Coast and Ghana, the world’s largest producers, have reduced cocoa production by 40 percent in
the past 10 years. What’s worse, many cocoa farmers in Africa and other
cocoa-producing countries like Indonesia and Venezuela are changing to
easier-to-grow crops such as corn or rubber. This way, the farmers can make
more money.
To prevent more farmers from changing,
researchers at the newly opened
International Cocoa Control Centre, in the UK, are trying to create new cocoa
plants that are stronger and faster growing. But first they must make sure the
new plants are safe to grow. This takes a long time.
First, each new plant is stored at the
Control Centre for six months to make sure it is healthy. It is then planted in
the Centre’s fields, studied and tested for another two years. Only after
scientists are certain that they’re disease-free, will the plants be sent to
farmers in West Africa or wherever else they are needed.
To create new stronger types of cocoa,
scientists at the Centre are combining the best parts from different cocoa
plants. Though the world is facing a serious chocolate shortage, there is now hope!
The first paragraph tells us that______.
chocolate is healthier than vegetables B. the world could soon be without
people love vegetables more than chocolate D. it’s not necessary to eat so much
In which countries has chocolate become more popular in recent years?
Venezuela and Indonesia. B. Ivory Coast and Ghana.
Indonesia and China. D. China and India.
Cocoa farmers are choosing to grow rubber and corn because these crops______.
can make them more money B. need less rain to grow
can be planted more times each year D. are not damaged by plant diseases
How long does it take scientists at the Centre to make sure a cocoa plant is
safe to grow?
6 months. B. 12 months. C. 24 months. D. 30 months.
What is one of the purposes of the Cocoa Control
To introduce cocoa production to more countries.
To provide more chocolate for British people.
To produce stronger types of cocoa plants.
To make sure that cocoa is healthy to eat.

Water pollution happens when waste things
from many areas are thrown into rivers, lakes and seas.
Agriculture
To get more food, farmers use large amounts
of chemicals (化学制品). When the chemicals are not completely
used by the plants, they are washed away by the rainwater into rivers, lakes
and seas, which pollute both surface water and underground water.
Factories and industries often release
poisonous chemicals into seas, rivers or lakes, which is quite bad for Mother
Nature. An example of industrial sea pollution happened in Japan in the 1950s. A local factory had poured waste water with mercury (水银) into the Minamata Bay for 20 years. Tuna fish in the
bay took in the mercury and people ate the tuna. Many children were born with
birth deformities (畸形). As a result, people lost their hearing
and sight, and thousands of people died in the end.
Sea transportation
When ships transporting oil get damaged on
the way, oil spillage (溢出) happens. One major disaster was the Exxon
Valdez oil spill. An oil tanker sank off Alaska in 1989 and leaked (泄漏) oil into the ocean. To save cost, some ships also
poured unwanted oil from their engine rooms into the sea, thus polluting the
Home activities
If the waste from the washing of clothes
and dishes are not treated and poured into the sea, they will do harm to the
sea life. Some diseases may also spread. Sometimes, rubbish is dumped into the

Time is in the year 2095. It is reported that a comet(彗星) is rushing towards the
Earth. Most of it will miss our earth, but two pieces will probably hit the
southern half of our planet.
On 15 July, a piece about four kilometers wide enters the Earth’s
atmosphere with a massive explosion(爆炸). About half of the piece is destroyed, but the remaining part hits
the South Atlantic at 200 times the speed of sound. A hole is made in the sea
bed. Huge waves spread outwards from the hole. The wall of water, a kilometer
high, rushes towards southern Africa at 800 kilometers an hour. Cities on the
African coast are totally destroyed and millions of people are drowned.
Before the waves arrive in South America, the second piece of the
comet hits Argentina. Earthquakes and volcanoes(火山爆发) are set off in the Andes Mountains. The shock
waves move north into California and all around the Pacific Ocean. The cities
of Los Angeles, San Francisco and Tokyo are completely destroyed by
earthquakes. Millions of people in the southern half of the earth are already
dead, but the north won’t escape for long. Because of the explosions, the sun
is hidden by clouds of dust, temperatures around the world fall to almost zero.
Crops are destroyed. The sun won’t be seen again for many years. Wars break out
as countries fight for food. A year later, no more than 10 million people
remain alive.
Could it really happen? In fact, it has already happened more than
once in the history of the Earth. The dinosaurs were on the Earth for over 160
million years. Then 65 million years ago they suddenly disappeared. Many
scientists believe that the Earth was hit by a piece of object in space. The
dinosaurs couldn’t live through the cold climate that followed and they died
out. Will we meet the same end?
1. When the first piece hits the South Atlantic, it causes _______&&
A. an earthquake &&& &&B.
volcanoes&&&& C. an Earth explosion
huge waves
2. Why can’t the northern half of the Earth escape for long?
A. Because the land is covered with water.
B. Because wars break out among countries for living space.
C. Because people there cannot live at the temperature of zero.
D. Because the light and heat from the sun cannot reach the Earth.
3. By giving the example of dinosaurs, the writer tries to prove _______&&
A. the human beings will die out&&
B. animals could not live in the cold climate
C. the Earth could be hit by other objects in space
D. what happened 65 million years ago was an invented story
4. Which of the

&&&&& It is all about excitement,
speed, and entertainment. It is the biggest international event in winter
sports—the Winter Olympic Games. Guess which city will be the host in 2022? The
two candidates, Beijing (jointly with Zhangjiakou in Hebei) and Almaty in Kazakhstan are waiting to find out who will win the bid.
&&& The International Olympic Committee
Evaluation Commission (评估团) visited Beijing and Zhangjiakou from March 24
to 28 to see whether the two cities meet the standards for hosting the Games.
The final host city will be announced on July 31 in Kuala Lumpur , Malaysia.
&&& “Our visit shows that Beijing is able to
host a successful 2022 Olympic Winter Games,” said Alexander Zhukov, the chief
of the commission.
&&& Although Zhukov said the same thing
about Almaty during his visit to the city earlier, “it seems that Beijing has a bigger chance”, commented Xinhua. If Beijing wins, it will be the first city
in history to organize both summer and winter Olympic Games.
&&& The nearly perfect organization of the
2008 Summer Games proved the city’s abilities, according to the report. The
city would make use of venues (比赛地点) and infrastructures (基本设施) constructed back then for the Winter Games, showing a
spirit of sustainable (可持续的) development. Beijing plans to host most of the
ice events, including figure skating, speed skating and ice hockey, in six
existing venues including the Water Cube aquatics center.
Snow events will be held in Chongli County in Zhangjiakou. The county, about an hour’s ride from Beijing, has over four
months’ snowfall a year, which would provide enough snow for the competitions.
The high forest coverage makes snow remain easier. Moreover, the average winter
temperature there is suitable for the Winter Olympic Games.&&&
But a problem may get in the way—smog (雾霾).
It will be a disadvantage for Beijing.
&&& Competition for holding the Olympics is
always strong, because it influences the host city and its people deeply.
&&& “If Beijing wins, it will help improve
transportation infrastructure in the two cities and reduce Beijing’s air
pollution,” said Beijing mayor Wang Anshun. Around 600,000 more jobs will be
created. The events will also encourage more young people to take part in
winter sports.
1. Where will snow events be probably held according to the
&& A. In Beijing.&&&&&
In Almaty.&&& &&&&&&&& C.
In Zhangjiakou.&&& & D. In Kazakhstan.
2. What is the biggest challenge for Beijing to host the
Winter Olympic Games?
&& A. Venues and
infrastructures.&&&&&&& &&&&&&& B.
Experience.
&& C. People’s
support.&&&&&&& &&&&&&&&&&&&&&& D.
pollution.
3. What will the Winter Olympic Games NOT bring to Beijing?
&& A. More and more people will have chances to
find jobs.
B. More and more teenagers will be interested in
winter sports.
&& C. Beijing still needs to build more venues and
infrastructures for the Games.
&& D. The traffic situation between Beijing and Zhangjiakou will be greatly improved.
4. Which of the following is TRUE?
&& A. It takes about one hour to ride a bike to
Chongli from Beijing.
B. Winning the Olympic bid won’t influence local
people’s lives.
&& C. Beijing will be the only city which hosts
the Olympic Games twice.
&& D. The city for hosting the 2022 Winter
Olympic Games hasn’t been decided.

Since January 2015, many cities in China have seen a lot of foggy days. In Beijing, only five days in January were free of smog (雾霾). What’s the difference between fog and smog? According to scientists, fog(雾) is made up of tiny drops of water and also ice particles (颗粒) during very cold conditions. Smog is dirty air that looks like a mixture of smoke and fog, caused mainly by smoke from cars and factories in cities.An official for the Ministry of Environmental Protection told Beijing News that PM2.5 pollution is the main problem with air pollution. PM 2.5 refers to pollution with small particles 2.5 micrometers(微米) or less in diameter (直径). According to the Chinese Academy of Sciences, two main factors that cause PM 2.5 are motor vehicles and the burning of coal.Poor air has done harm to people’s health. Children and the elderly are more at risk. A report from Beijing Children’s Hospital shows that from January 5 to January 11, 2015, half of the patients in the hospital came for respiratory (呼吸道的) problems.To respond to the air problem, the Chinese government and many Chinese people have started to take action. Beijing announced a plan to use clean fuel(燃料) in government vehicles and plant trees. It asked citizens to set off fewer fireworks for the Spring Festival celebration. They suggested that cars with large emissions (排放) should be stopped and factories should be closely watched. Three students from No. 4 High School in Beijing wrote a report to advise to fight the air pollution. “We hope more people will join us to protect our environment. With all our efforts, the blue skies will certainly return soon,” said Shi Xiaofei, 15, one of the three students.(

The first robots were invented in the 1920s.
Robots have appeared in many American films. In some films, they are stronger,
faster and cleverer than people.
In real life, robots are mainly used
in factories. They do some dangerous and difficult jobs for humans.
Robots also help disabled
people, for example, blind people. Today many blind people have a guide dog to
help them. In the future, guide dogs might be robot dogs.
One kind of robot guide dog has
wheels. It moves in front of the owner. It is very clever. It knows the speed
of its owner’s walk. The owner wears a special belt (带子).
This belt sends instructions to the owner from the dog, such as “Stop here”,
“Turn left” or “Turn right”.
In the United States, another kind
of robot helps disabled people to take care of themselves in their daily life.
The robot hears the sound of its owner’s voice. It follows instructions such as
“Turn the page” or “Make a cup of coffee”.
Robots are also used in American
hospitals. They can do simple jobs. At one hospital, for example, a robot takes
meals from the kitchen to patients’ rooms. It never gets lost because this
robot has a map of the hospital in its computer memory.
Though robots can help people in
many different ways, they will never take the place of humans.

Is there intelligent(有智力的)life on other planets? For years，scientists said“No．”or“We don’t know．”But today this is changing．Seth Shostak and Alexandra Barnett are astronomers(天文学家)．They believe intelligent life exists(存在)somewhere in the universe．They also think we will soon contact these beings．
Why do Shostak and Barnett think intelligent life exists on other planets? The first reason is time．Scientists believe the universe is about 12 billion years old．“This is long enough for other planets to have intelligent 1ife，”say Shostak and Barnett．The second reason is size—the universe is huge．“Tools like the Hubbl Telescope(哈勃望远镜) have shown that there are at least 100 billion galaxies(银河)，&says Shostak．“And our galaxy，the Milky Way，has at 1east 100 billion stars．Some planets going around these stars might be similar to Earth．”
In the past，it was hard to look for signs of intelligent life in the universe．But now，powerful telescopes allow scientists to discover smaller planets—the size of Mars or Earth—in other solar systems．These planets might have intelligent life．
Have beings from space already visited Earth?“Probably not，”says Shostak．“It’s a 1ong way away．However，intelligent beings may contact us in other ways，such as radio signals(信号)．In fact，they may be trying to communicate with us now，but we don't have the right tools to receive their message．However，this is changing．By 2025，we could make contact with other life forms in our universe and we might help each other．”(

The polluted air you're breathing could be slowly killing you: according to the World Health Organization, around two million people die young from the polluted air every year. Air pollution is a huge problem for us all. Chai Jing, a former* TV host, has made a documentary about smog, inspired by her sick daughter. Chai Jing said she hopes the 103-minute film will serve as an answer to three questions about smog – what is smog, where does it come from and what to do about it. Smog is a combination* of fog and smoke. PM2.5 is one of the most dangerous parts of smog, and it causes the greatest risk to human health. Beijing is one of the worst polluted cities in China. It is said that only five days were not covered by heavy smog in Beijing in the whole month of January in 2013. Its concentration* reached a record high of 993 on January 12, almost 50 times the World Health Organization's standard. Although smog can happen in any busy city, it's a particular problem in places such as Los Angeles where the local weather condition is influenced by the ocean and neighboring mountains. Smog becomes so serious across China, especially in Beijing, largely because of the high traffic levels, the large amount of coal burning, and the low quality of gas*.The smog has made people in Beijing worry about their health. Many are choosing to travel out of the city to avoid the thick smog, while others are buying air purifiers to make indoor air clean. When the air is harmful, the government suggests people avoiding outdoor activities. Officials have also closed some factories and ordered some government cars off the road. And they have made rules to stop new cement* and steel factories from opening. There's nothing quite like opening the door and breathing fresh and clean air, just staying inside is not a good way to avoid smog, all of us should play a part to protect the environment for ourselves and our children and the government should make rules to stop pollution.（
What’s smog?
A. It’s a combination of fog and smoke.
B. It’s good for human health.
C. It’s fresh air.
D. It’s just PM2.5.（
）2.According to the passage, why does smog become serious in Beijing?
A. The weather in Beijing is influenced by the ocean and neighboring mountains.
B. There are too many factories in Beijing.
C. Beijing is the capital of China.

BEING an astronaut sounds cool, doesn’t it? In space, they get to do
some pretty amazing things, like floating(漂浮) in zero gravity(重力).
However, there are also plenty of things that astronauts can’t do because
of their weightless environment, and that’s very sad. What’s worse, they can’t
even let their sadness show, because it’s impossible to cry in zero gravity.
Of course, astronauts can still produce tears(眼泪). But crying is much more
difficult in space, according to The Atlantic(大西洋月刊) in January. Without
gravity, tears don’t flow(流动) down out of the eyes like they do here on Earth. This means that
when you cry in space, your tears have nowhere to go — they just stick(粘) to your eyes.
In May 2011, astronaut Andrew Feustel experienced this during one of his
spacewalks. “Tears,”
he said, “don’t fall off of your eyes. They just stay there.”
Besides making your vision(视线) unclear, this can also cause physical pain. Back on Earth, tears
are supposed to bring comfort to the eyes. But that’s not the case(情况) in space. The space
environment dries out astronauts’ eyes, and when tears suddenly wet the eyes,
it can cause pain rather than comfort. “My right eye is stinging(刺痛) like crazy,” Feustel told his
teammate during the walk.
Since gravity doesn’t work in space, astronauts need some extra help to get
rid of(除去) the
tears. Feustel chose to rub his eyes against his helmet to wipe(擦) the tears away. Another
choice is to just wait — “When the tears get big enough, they simply break free of the eyes
and float around,” astronaut Ron Parise told The Atlantic.
There are lots of small things — things like
crying — that we
are so used to on Earth. We usually take them for granted until
they become a problem in a totally different environment, like space. There,
astronauts can’t talk to each other directly. They also can’t eat or drink in
normal ways. They can’t even burp(打嗝), because there is no gravity
to hold the food down in their stomach. If they do burp, they just end up throwing
everything in their stomach, according to the UK National Space Center.
Therefore, perhaps it’s only space explorers who can honestly say, “Gravity,
you’re the best.”
Paragraphs 2 and 3, we can know that __________.
A. astronauts are unable to feel sad in space
B. astronauts produce fewer tears in space
C. tears produced in space flow down more slowly
D. tears produced in space don’t flow downward
2. What effect
do tears have on
astronauts?
A. They cause physical pain.&&&&&&&&&&&&&& B.
They bring comfort to them.
C. They make their vision
clearer.&&&&&&& D. They float around and
cause trouble.
underlined phrase “take them for granted” in paragraph 7 means
__________.
A. find them important&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& B.
consider them useless
C. need them during an emergency&&&&&&&&&&&&& D.
fail to notice their presence
4. Paragraph 7
is mainly about __________.
A. suggestions of how astronauts can stay comfortable in space
B. other basic things that are difficult to do in space
C. why burping is impossible in space
D. things human can’t do without gravity

These days haze（雾霾）is around us
here and there. In fact，everyone has the power to change their living
habits to help reduce it. Many local governments call on their people to take
action to make the air cleaner.
Transport is one of the biggest contributors（促成物）to haze. When，where，how，why
and what you drive all affect air quality. When one drives to work for one year，he
uses as mush energy as a bus rider uses in 10 years. So walk or ride your
bicycle to work or school whenever possible. If it is necessary，you
can use public transport instead of your car. Each person using public
transport for a year instead of a car can save nearly a tonne of pollutants，including
CO2，from going into the atmosphere.
Carpooling is another way to reduce carbon
emissions（排放）.Carpooling is the sharing of car journeys so
that more than one person travels in a car. It immediately reduces your car’s
emissions by half.
What you do inside your living space can have a
big effect on the air quality outside it. You can do a lot of things inside and
around your home that will help you pollute less and save some money.
A large amount of our energy supply comes from
burning coal，another contributor to haze. By cutting down
your electricity use，you are cutting down on haze. So you may try to
reduce your use of electricity by turning off lights，using
your air conditioner wisely during the summer months，or
updating some of your electrical appliances to low-energy models. For example，you
can use energy-saving lamps that require less energy and last 10
times longer than common bulbs.
Which does the writer think should play an
important rode in reducing haze？
cleaners&&&&&&&&&&& B.
Haze producers
governments&&&&&& D. Common people
can infer（推断）from the passage that the writer thinks &&&&&&&&&.

April 22 is Earth Day.
Everyone on earth should care about and protect the earth!
The earth has warmed by about
1（华氏度） over the past 100 years, but why and
how? Well, scientists are not quite sure. Maybe the earth gets warmer and
warmer on its own. But many scientists say that people are doing many things
which make the earth warmer.
First, greenhouse effect （温室效应） is a very important reason for the change of the earth. People give
out too much energy into the air every year. It makes the earth warmer. Climate
（气候） change is another important reason. Sometimes it becomes
too hot and sometimes too cold. Sometimes there is too much rain and sometimes
too little. The change of the climate makes the earth warmer. In turn, the
warmth of the earth changes the climate, too.
When the earth becomes
warmer, there may be more rain and a rise in sea level. It will affect the
growth of plants, animals and people. On a Pacific island,100 people have to
move to higher ground because the sea is rising. These people can no longer
live on the coast. Before that, two islands without people went underwater in
1999.Scientists say that the seas can rise by nearly one meter by 2100.
People can affect the earth’s air, land and water. As for us, we can do many things to protect
the earth.For example, we can use fridges less. We can tell more people about
protecting the earth.
1. Earth Day is probably set
for people to_______.
A. learn more about the earth
B. make full use of the earth
C. take better care of the
D. study the warmth of the
2.We can infer（推断） from the passage that the reasons for the warmer earth
are_______now.
A. not very clear B.
completely secret
C. well known D. not given
3. Greenhouse effect comes
from_______.
A. sea rising B. climate
C. nature’s unbalance D. people’s activity
&&& 4. According to the
passage,_______may affect each other.
A. animals and islands
B. climate and the warmth of
C. fridges and animals

&There are many wetlands in China and some of them have
become the important wetlands in the world. The Chinese Yellow Sea Wetlands are
among them. They are in Yancheng， Jiangsu Province.
They are home for many different kinds of birds and animals. The largest Milu
Deer Nature Reserve（自然保护区） is in them. More than 700 milu deer live freely
there. There are not many red-crowned cranes in the world，
but every winter you can see
some flying over the Yellow Sea Wetlands.
The temperature in the wetlands is usually neither too high
nor too low. There is a lot of rain and sunshine，too. They are
really good places for wild animals. Offering food and home for some special
kinds of animals and birds is not the only reason why we need to protect
wetlands. Wetlands are important because they also prevent flood(洪灾).
But some people want to change the wetlands to make more space for farms and
buildings. This means there will be less and less space for wildlife.
Luckily，more and more people are beginning to realize
the important of wetlands and wildlife. Every year，on
February 2nd, many activities are held to tell people more about

North American back
bears are shy animals. They are fearful by nature, and
will usually run away if they see or hear people. Because of
this, it can be difficult for scientists to learn about these
In order to study black
bears, researchers from New Jersey, USA, catch bears and use drugs
to help them go to sleep. Researchers then work out the size and the weight of
the bear, take blood to test for diseases(疾病),
remove a tooth and take it to the lab to find out its age. From these
studies, researchers want to find out how many bears live in New Jersey, how
long they live, and how many babies they produce.
But in Minnesota, USA, researchers study bears that are completely awake. The bears know the
researchers' voices and they are not afraid of die research team. With
the help of a few grapes to keep the bears busy, researchers can touch
them to check their hearts, look at their teeth, and do
other jobs. Researchers can also walk or sit with bears for
hours and make videos to learn about their everyday lives.
In both places, the main
purpose is the same—to make sure there is a healthy population of black bears. But
the research methods and the kinds of information that
researchers, are able to collect arc quite different.
In the first paragraph, we can learn that North American black bears are _______.

Now, it may be difficult
to predict the future, but many people believe that we will live on Mars by the
year 2100. Our own planet, Earth, is becoming more and more crowed and
polluted. Well, what problems will we need to solve before we prepare to go to
First of all, transport
should be much better. At present, humans need to spend months going to Mars by
spaceship. However, by 2100, spaceship can travel at half the speed of light.
It might take us two or three days to get there!
Secondly, humans need
food, water and air to live. Scientists should develop plants that can be grown
on Mars. These plants will produce the food, water and air that we need.
However, there is no answer for all the problems now.
There is also a problem
for us to live on Mars. Mars attracts us much less than the Earth does. This
will be dangerous because we could easily jump too high and fly slowly away
into space there. We will have to wear special shoes to make ourselves heavier.
In some ways, life on
Mars may not be better than that on the earth today. Food will not be the same
--- meals will probably be in the form of pills and will not be as delicious as
they are today. Also, space travel will probably make many people feel very
uncomfortable.
1. According to the
passage, by the year 2100, we will possibly live________.
Mars&&&&&&&&& B. on the
moon.&&&& C. in the spaceship.&&&& D.
in the sea.
2. So far, how long will
it take us from the earth to Mars by spaceship?
Two or three days.& B. A few days.&&&&& C. A few
months.&&&&&& D. A few years.
3. According to the passage, which of the
following is wrong?
special plant which can produce water, air and food should be needed on Mars.
may go to Mars when transport is much better and faster..
can jump higher than on the earth on Mars.&&&&&
Food on Mars will be much better to eat.
4. Which looks like life
on Mars according to the passage?
can wear the shoes that we like to wear.
can drink easily and conveniently.
can walk faster than on the earth.&&&&&
can boil food to eat.
5. Why do we want to
live on Mars?
Life on Mars is more interesting than that on the earth.
The earth is becoming dirty and crowded.
The journey to Mars is very interesting.
The scientists want us to do that.&&&

Matt Mason has seen the
future-and it's fun. Mason likes thinking about how machines can make our lives
easier by doing the work we hate ,such as cleaning. He shows a hard floor
cleaning system（系统）that's built into the wall: it will blow dirt to
a part of the room where it will be collected by a vacuum. Then the system will
drop some cleaner on the floor and an arm will mop（用拖把擦）it up. &This may trouble you,& says Kara, an
expert in Mason's company. &But you can program it to come on at 3 a. m., and it will just wet-mop the floor for you.&
&&&& When it comes to the kitchen, Bruce Beihoff , another
expert at Whirlpool, is sure that in a few years, robots will be doing most of
the boring work, freeing us to relax. &More than just fun, future kitchens
will be environmentally friendly,& he says. &A new system will be
built in the house which can recycle energy（能量）lost from your
kitchen to make the whole home warm.&
&&&& &The fridge will be the center of the home,&
says Daniel Lee, a market expert. The fridge will have a touch screen （触摸屏幕）where you can watch TV, surf the Internet, check your
e-mail, keep a shopping list and order vegetables. &Your fridge is the
first place you go in the morning and the last place at night,& says Lee.
Ever wonder why a
1.9-meter man and a 1.6-meter woman have to cook meals on counters（工作台）of the same height. &The height was decided over 50
years ago, according to the height of ordinary women,& says Jane Langmuir,
an expert of cooking machines. &But times have changed. We have made a new
counter where you press a button and it moves to whatever height you
want.& At the same time, Ted Selker at MIT's Counter lab has made the
dishmaker which lets you make dishes and bowls out of plastics at home. After
each meal, the dishes are changed straight back into plastics.
