words,you cansee,have the same“port”,which come from the Latin word,meaning“to carry”or“tomove”from one place to another.And according to the bit at the beginning,which we callthe prefix the meaning changes.“Import”means“to carry in”or“to bring into acountry”,“export”,“ex”means“out of”,so this word means“to carry out of the country”,“re”means“back”,sothe“report”means“totellsomebody,tobringbackinformationtosomebody”,“transport”,“trans”means“across”and it means“to carry across oneplace to another”.Lets look at the following words:supporter,reporter,importer and exporter.Youcan see that in this case these words are nouns which are made up of the verbs plus asuffix,thus meaning a person who completes the verb.Sosupportermeans somebody whosupports.Areporterissomebodywhoreports.Importerissomebodywhoimportsandexporter is somebody who exports,and so on.24.In the first sentence the

the secret to solving our energyneeds,and we may soon be able to replace our gasoline with“grassoline”The team,including experts from Cardiff University in Wales,has shown that hydrogencan be taken from grass in useful amounts with the help of sunlight and a cheap catalystsomething that speeds up a chemical reaction without being used up.It is the first time that this has been shown and it could lead to a sustainablewayofmakinghydrogen,reportedAsianNewsInternational.Thiscouldbean importantkind of renewable energy because it is high in energy and it does not give out harmfulgases when it is burned.StudycoauthorMichaelBowkersaid,“Thisisreallyagreensourceofenergy.Hydrogenisseenasan important future energy carrier as the world moves from fossilfuels to renewable energy,and our research has shown that even garden grass could be agood way of getting it.”Cellulose(纤维素),which is a key part of plants and the biopolymer found in thelargest numbers on theearth,could be agreat source of hydrogen.In their study,the team looked at the possibility of getting hydrogen from celluloseusing sunlight and a simple catalyst.This is called photocatalysis(光 催 化 作 用)and in it,the sunlight starts thecatalyst,which thenmakescelluloseandwaterintohydrogen.Theresearchersstudiedtheeffectivenessofthreemetalbased catalysts,of which nickel(镍)especially interested the researchers,as itis a much more common metal than gold and palladium and it saves more money.According to Bowker,producing hydrogen from cellulose using photocatalysis has not beenstudied in detail.The teams research shows that large amounts of hydrogen can be producedusing this method with the help ofa bit of sunlight and a cheap catalyst.The study shows that it is effective to use real grass taken from a garden.“This isimportant as it avoids the need to separate and clean up cellulose,which can be bothdifficult and costly，”said Bowker.32What are needed to get hydrogen fromgrass?AA catalyst and palladium.BWater and cellulose.CSunlight and abiopolymer.DSunlightand a catalyst.33Why is the new way of making hydrogen consideredsignificant?AIt is cheap,green and sustainable.BIt is the best to produce the renewable energy.CIt is more productive and efficient thanother methods.DIt can replace the way tomake fossil fuels completely.34Why does nickel interest the researchers in making hydrogen fromcellulose?AIt can
