We even know where and when some disasters, like the typhoon, the flood. While most of the new technologies are far away from us, some around us can help people in disasters.The drone （无人机）is one of them. 1（ can be used to send food, water when a natural disaster happens. Very often the buildings are too dangerous for rescue （救援）teams to get in. They can make the drone fly into the buildings to search fbr those who are still alive first. They are also becoming a useful tool fbr firefighters, helping them find and fight wildfires. In some faraway places in the world, drones are the fastest way to send medicine to people who are in great need of it.Social media is also a useful tool when it comes to natural disasters. With its help, people can know about the natural disasters before they hit. And some social media platforms allow people to mark themselves as safe after disasters, so others can know their situations.Social media is also a place for up-to-date news, so people can learn what is going on in （he disaster areas.

However, don't be fooled by the inedible （不可食用的）nature of its orange fruits! Scientists believe that the enset may provide food for over 100 million people in Africa. This could be a game-changer for solving the famine （ 饥荒）that becomes worse because of the climate change.The enset is a plant （hat belongs to Musaceae （芭蕉科）,the same family of flower plants as the banana. The tree can grow up to 10 meters tall. Unlike the banana, the fruits of the enset plant arc inedible. This has earned it the nickname of “false banana”, as the plant is used more for its carbohydrate-rich stems（茎）and roots.However, the planting of the enset is just in Ethiopia, where the plant is fermented （发酵）to make dishes like porridge and bread. Food made from the enset is especially good for the body with high calcium, potassium, and zinc, as well as amino acids. When Ethiopia experienced its most serious famine in a ccmury during the 1980s, the enset played a major role in helping communities recover from the crisis. Besides being animportant part of ihe Ethiopian diet, the enset is also used in traditional medicine, animal feed, and construction materials in the country.Because of climate change, changeable temperatures and extreme weather events arc bringing risks to crop harvests. There isn't enough food in many regions of Africa. Scientists believe that the enset can help solve this problem. The enset is a very hardy plant, able to survive at different temperatures and regions. The enset can be harvested a( any stage of its growth throughout (he year and can be stored for long periods of time. All of these characteristics make it a good choice for emergency backup food in case of natural disasters and droughts. However, scientists are not sure if it can replace the main crops in other regions.Although there are belief worries about the growing of the enset in more areas, such as its cultural meaning to the Ethiopian coinnuinity and the local knowledge needed to properly care for the plant, the enset banana is certainly eye-catching for its unique qualities that have given it the name “the tree against hunger." It is an example of how food production is changing in our world in the face of climate change.28. Why is the enset called “false banana"?A. Because it has orange fruits looked like the banana.B. Because it belongs to the same family of the banana.C. Because it is like the banana but its fruit can't be eaten.D. Because it can grow up to 10 meters tall just like the banana tree.29. The writer mentioned “Ethiopia experienced its most serious famine in a century during the 1980s“ to show that.A. only Ethiopia plants the enset to make foodB. food made from (he enset is good for the bodyC. the enset may help solve the food crisis in AfricaD. other parts of Asia should learn to plant the enset30. “Wild forms of this plant can be found in different parts of Africa. can be best placed inA.B.C.D.31. Which is NOT the reason for choosing the enset banana as emergency backup food?A. People can eat the enset through the whole year.B. The enset has a lot to offer to our body and can be stored easily.C. The enset can survive the changeable climates and in different regions.D. It has special cultural meaning and once sav
