When you borrow books from a library, you should return them so that others can read them later. However, some libraries allow people not to return anything. Unlike most other libraries, these libraries don’t lend books; they lend seeds（种子）!

   In a seed library, people can borrow and donate(捐赠） seeds. It is different from a seed bank which only keeps seeds. It advises people to plant and share seeds. Seeds in a seed library are often kept dry and cool in small packets. People can read the name of the plant on the packet.

 If you want to grow your own plants, such as potatoes or tomatoes, you can borrow seeds from a seed library. You can first choose the seeds you’d like to plant. Then, you can borrow the seeds and take them home. Some libraries also offer gardening books to teach you how to plant the seeds.

  Now, there’s only a small group of seed libraries in the world, but the number is growing. People build these seed libraries want to protect plant diversity(多样性) and they want others to know more about plants and planting. They believe that protecting plant diversity is not only the job of scientists, but all of us.

34. What is the right order if you want to grow tomatoes with seeds from a seed library?

a. take the seeds back home b. grow the tomato successfully

c. choose the tomato seeds in the library. d. return your tomato seeds to the library.

A. A-b-d-c B. c-a-b-d C. a-c-b-d D. c-d-a-b

35. From the passage we know seed libraries are built to

A. produce the best seeds for farmers B. keep seeds in dry and cool places

B. Protect as many kinds of plants as possible D. help scientists with their researchers.

A. A notice board B. A newspaper C.A story book D. A guidebook

Dear Steve,

I’m glad to hear you’re coming to China next month. I do hope you’ll have a good time to visit China. In order to help you have a better understanding of China, I’ll give you some advice.

To begin with, stay in a Chinese family. Chinese people are very friendly; you can easily make friends with them. They will help you with the language and introduce you about the Chinese traditions. In addition, you can also learn to make dumplings. It’s a traditional food in China, and it tastes delicious. Moreover, if you go to Beijing, we can go to Lao She Teahouse and enjoy Beijing Opera together. It will be really interesting. Finally, you can visit some places of interest, such as the Great Wall, the Summer Palace and Mount Tai. I’ll be along with you if necessary.

Hopefully my suggestions will help you. I’m looking forward to you reply. Best wishes!

Yours,

Li Hua
