Now the great master's original has been recreated by simp

17、le cross-stitching (十字繡).It took Michelangelo four years-from 1508 to 1512-to complete the Sistine Chapel Ceiling. Its cross-stitch reproduction, however, took four more years to copy in all its amazing detail. Joanna Lopianowski-Roberts, a Canadian needle worker, 44, spent at least one hour every d

18、ay with the work on her lap. By committing a total of 3,572 hours, which her husband Aaron Roberts accurately timed on a stopwatch, her dream became a reality.The extraordinary project started in October 1995. During the years that followed, Joanna would face several challenges that brought her clos

19、e to giving up completely. As is the method with cross-stitching, Joanna had to pre-design an outline for each painting of the Sistine Chapel Ceiling and then fill in all of the 45 sections with color and detail by stitching.To get the detail right for each painting, Joanna had to get an individual

20、close-up (特寫照片) of each piece which came from several different sources. She even bought books from Rome to make sure she had an accurate depiction (描繪) of every part of Michelangelo' s work."It was really hard and I had a lot of false starts," she said. "I even considered stoppin

21、g. After many starts and retries, I decided in late 2001 that if I didn't set a commitment to myself of stitching an average of one hour every day, I'd never finish."Joanna's Sistine Chapel, which measures 40 inches by 80 inches, is now kept safely at her home. And despite holding t

22、he item close to her heart, she says she would sell it to the right buyer for the right price.Her accomplishment has now been documented in Joanna's book In the Footsteps of Michelangelo: The Sistine Chapel Ceiling in Cross Stitch which acts as a guide for other would-be stitchers to try themsel

43、ion in lowland areas that are affected by flooding.The genes, called SNORKEL genes, help rice grow longer stems to deal with higher water levels. Deepwater rice generally produces low-yield (低產(chǎn)的) rice plants. But the researchers report they have succeeded in introducing the genes to rice varieties t

44、hat are higher-yield.According to the report, as water levels rise, accumulation of the plant hormone (激素) ethylene (乙烯) makes the SNORKEL genes start working, making stem growth more rapid. When the researchers introduced the genes into rice that does not normally survive in deep water, they were a

45、ble to rescue the plants from drowning.Motoyuki Ashikari, who headed the project, said his team is-hoping to use the gene on long grain rice widely used in Southeast Asian to help stabilize production in flood-prone (易受洪水襲擊的）areas where rice with the flood-resistant gene is low in production -about

46、one-third to one-quarter that of regular rice." Scientifically, the gene that we found is rare but clear proof of a biological ability to adapt to a harsh environment," he said. "It's a genetic strategy specifically to survive flooding."High water levels in rice field can be

47、a serious problem. In some areas, rains can cause water levels to rise dangerously high during the growing season and flash flooding can fully submerge plants for days or even weeks.Rice is a main food for billions, and while productivity has increased dramatically since the 1960s, yields must be do

48、ubled to meet projected requirements by 2050. More than 30 percent of Asian and 40 percent of African rice land is either lowland field or deepwater field.Laurentius of Utrecht University said the study is significant because high-yield rice varieties cannot survive extremes of floods. "The int

49、roduction of these genes into high-yield varieties, using advanced breeding strategies, promises to improve the quality and quantity of rice," he said.48. What is the main character of SNORKEL genes? A. They prevent rice from being attacked by various diseases. B. They help rice grow taller in

50、highland regions. C. They make rice grow tall enough to survive in deep water. D. They make rice be ripe within a shorter time.49. According to Ashikari, the rice with the gene his team found _.

51、 expensive than regular rice D. is lower in production than regular rice50. The underlined word“submerge”in the sixth paragraph probably means _. A. coverB. damageC. produceD. kill51. What Laurentius said in the last paragraph suggests that_. A. rice will be planted on the farmland everywhere in the

52、 future B. rice with SNORKEL genes will be of high quality in the future C. high-yield rice varieties are not common nowadaysD. the quality of rice is difficult to improveEI first met Richard Sandor around 10 years ago when discussions about creating a global carbon market began. He's been extre

53、mely important to the development of the emissions-trading (排污權(quán)交易)industry since its beginnings. As chief economist for the Chicago Board of Trade in the 1970s, he had helped develop the financial futures (期貨) market, and in the late 1980s and early 1990s he all but invented cap-and-trade programs f

54、or sulfur dioxide (SO) emissions, the pollutant that causes acid rain. The methodology was simple: the government puts a cap, or an upper limit on SO emissions and then the market takes over, with companies that can economically reduce SO on their own allowed to sell emissions fights to those that c

55、an't. Doing the same thing with greenhouse emissions was the logical next step, and from the 1992 Earth Summit on, Sandor was at the forefront of those efforts, launching the Chicago and the European Climate Exchanges, where companies could meet to trade carbon.Sandor is a creator and a great promoter of new markets, and he has the vision, to create something out of nothing. He doesn't just work at the level of theory, but encourages others to get involved. And he's always been good at making money. He realized that if we b
