1、Hello everyone! I'm Mark from Class 4a. For the students in my class, the English lessons in the first week of this month were very different from what we normally do. We were pretty excited when Mr. Breen, our teacher, told us to choose a museum in a different country and ‘visit' it (by using the Internet, of course) together in groups. He also said that we should write an article for the school magazine about it.
There were five of us in my group, and it wasn't easy to decide which museum we wanted to go to. Mr. Breen encouraged us to make one idea each. We were surprised how easy it was. We had five ideas, but everybodywas very impressed with Tom's idea. He wanted us to visit the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao in the north of Spain, and when he showed us the website, we all knew it was "our place".
The building was made by American architect Frank Gehry in 1997, and it's fantastic. The website says it covers an area of 24,000 m², of which 11,000 m² are all exhibition (展览) space. It took us about two hours to visit the different parts of the website, and we all loved the photos of the building. The part we liked best was called Explore. It shows many wonderful photos of sculptures (雕刻) and other pieces of art from the different exhibitions.
When the project (项目) was finished, Mia, one girl from our group, described how we all felt. She said that the project was amazing, but what we'd really like to do now is to visit the Guggenheim in Bilbao!

B、Some detailed information about the museum they visited. C、How the students like the project (their ‘visit' to the museum). D、What the different English lessons were like for the students.(3)、Which is the right order to show the development of the project?①Choose the best one among five ideas.
②Set up groups of five students.

Global warming makes it harder for food crops to grow. But here comes the exciting news. Dr Katherine Meacham-Hensold and her team members from the University of Essex have produced something amazing——super potatoes, which grow well in the warm weather.
As we know, the potato is one of the most important food crops in the world, right after the main crop rice. Also, the potato's growth can easily be affected(影响)by the higher temperature. That's why the production(生产;产量)of super potatoes becomes so important.
To produce super potatoes, scientists did research at a farm. They set up two groups: one group used common potatoes, while the potatoes in the other group were genetically modified(基因改造)with two special genes(基因). By adding these two genes, scientists could change the growth of the potatoes. At the same time, the potatoes got more energy for growth. The scientists tested the two groups of potatoes by growing both of them at a temperature 3℃ above the average.
Scientists were surprised to find that, under this condition, the potatoes with two special genes produced 30%more than common ones. The process didn't affect the potatoes' taste. What's more, the potatoes could provide the same nutrients(营养物)for living things to grow.
"It is important to grow crops that can survive the climate change. " Dr Katherine said. As a result, people can grow super potatoes in places most at risk from global warming.
The super potato research turned out to be meaningful. In the future, scientists will try growing more potatoes in different places to see how new environments affect their growth. Besides, the team also hope to change other crops to fight against global warming.
(1)、Why do scientists choose potatoes to do the research?A、They have higher production than rice. B、It is hard to grow them in some countries. C、There aren't enough potatoes in the world. D、Potatoes are important but affected by heat.(2)、How did scientists do the research of super potatoes?A、They put potatoes in the sun to get energy. B、They grew potatoes at a lower temperature.

D、Other crops could grow well in the heat like super potatoes.(4)、What can be the best title of the text?A、Crops that Slow Warm Weather B、Crops that Fight Climate Change C、Genes that Help Potatoes Grow Well D、Genes that Increase Food Production -
