As a yung girl grwing up in France, Sarah Tumi dreamed f becming a leader wh culd make the wrld a better place. Her passin t help thers was awakened when, frm the age f nine, she accmpanied her Tunisian father t his birthplace in the east f the cuntry during hlidays.

Desert in its tracks.” A decrease in average rainfall and an increase in the severity f drughts ( 干旱 ) have led t an estimated 75 per cent f Tunisia’s agricultural lands being threatened by desertificatin.
Tumi recgnized that farming practices needed t change. She is cnfident that small land areas can bring large returns if farmers are able t adapt by planting sustainable crps, using new technlgies fr water treatment and fcusing n natural prducts and fertilisers (肥料) rather than chemicals.

By September 2016, mre than 130,000 acacia trees had been planted n 20 pilt farms, with farmers recrding a 60 per cent survival rate. Tumi estimates that sme 3 millin acacia trees are needed t prtect Tunisia’s farmland. She expects t plant 1 millin trees by 2018. In the next cuple f years, Tumi hpes t extend the prgramme t Algeria and Mrcc.
Hw did Tumi’s hliday trips t Tunisia influence her?

Fr years, David James, wh studies insects at Washingtn State University, had wanted t examine the migratin ( 迁徙) patterns f West Cast mnarch butterflies ( 黑脉金斑蝶). The rute the butterflies travel has been hardly knwn because the ppulatins are t small t fllw. Fr every 200 mnarchs tagged (打标签) by a researcher, nly ne is usually recvered at the end f its trip, James says, and finding even 200 in the wild t tag is unlikely. Knwing the rute is vital t cnservatin effrts, but James had n way t figure it ut – until he gt a phne call frm Washingtn State Penitentiary in Walla Walla.
The prisn was lking fr new activities t imprve the mental health f thse serving lng-term sentences. S James began wrking with prisners t raise mnarchs thrugh the whle prcess f their transfrmatin. The adult insects were then tagged and released frm the prisn. Over five years, nearly 10,000 mnarchs flew frm the facility. Elsewhere in Washingtn, Oregn and Idah, researchers released anther few thusand.
The tags included email addresses, and sn after the first butterflies tk ff, James started receiving messages frm peple wh had sptted them. The butterflies, the reprts cnfirmed, wintered in castal Califrnia. Twelve f them landed at Lighthuse Field State Beach in Santa Cruz. Several mre headed t Blinas and Mrr Bay.
The wrk helps researchers identify ideal places t plant milkweed and ther vegetatin that are imprtant t the life cycle f West Cast mnarch butterflies. It als brught ut the gentler side f sme f the prisners. “They were very wrried that they were ging t harm the butterflies,” James says. Watching the mnarch change their frm als tuched the men. “This butterfly changed,” James recalls prisners telling him, “and maybe we can t.”

C. Build a new labratry.D. Hire qualified wrkers.
Why are the butterflies tagged befre being released?

C. The transfrmatin f the butterflies.D. The devtin f James t the butterflies.
What is the last paragraph mainly abut?
A. The life cycle f the butterflies.B.The release f the prisners.

A butterfly-shaped island in the central Aegean hpes t becme Greece’s first carbn-free turist destinatin. Under a deal with the gvernment, Vlkswagen, a carmaker, has dnated several new electric vehicles fr use by Astypalea’s public services; it will sell thers at cst price t its 1,200 year-rund residents. In return, the gvernment has ffered mre financial assistance fr islanders t buy electric cars and will build a slar and wind-fuelled pwer plant t replace plluting generatrs.
Unlike ther nearby islands, Astypalea is nt cnnected t Greece’s electricity prviders. With nly 3,000 rms fr visitrs in small htels r flats, turism is still lw-key. Many residents make a living the ld-fashined way: raising gats, keeping bees and fishing. The island was selected fr Vlkswagen’s experiment after Niks Kmineas, the g-ahead mayr, cntacted the transprt ministry fr help in finding an electric bus t try ut n its rugh rads.
Mst islanders sund keen n the prject. Mr. Kmineas expects the number f private cars n Astypalea t fall by a third ver the next five years. Its residents, he says, will get arund n electric minibuses, which will be free, linked t a mbile-phne app and available rund the clck.
Sme bservers smell greenwashing in the prject. A bid fr a slar park that wuld generate half the island’s electricity within three years will nt get under way befre the turist seasn ends. A single wind-fuelled engine will be set up nly in 2026, assuming the licensing prcess ges smthly. That is nt nrmally the case in the Aegean, where islanders wrry that turists will g elsewhere if the view is spiled by an engine 200 meters high. And even then, the slar and wind-fulled pwer unit is planned t cver nly abut 80% f summer demand. But it is a start.
Why has Vlkswagen signed the deal with the gvernment?
A. T cntrl car prices.B. T help generate electricity.
C. T prmte public transprt.D. T build a zer-carbn island.
What makes Astypalea different frm ther nearby islands?

C. It is a crwded turist destinatin.D. It has varius gats, bees and fishes.
The underlined wrd “greenwashing” in Paragraph 4 prbably means_.
A. an island with few turistsB. a prcess with little supprt
C. an engine with n plluting fuelD. a strategy with n meaningful changes
What des the authr think f the prject?
A. It’s pineering.B. It’s practical.C. It’s destructive.D. It’s cstly.
