33、flowers.D.Flowers have the magic to cure diseases.C Seeds on Ice Close to the North Pole,remote and rocky Plateau Mountain in the Norwegian archipelago of Svalbard seems an unlikely spot for any global effort to safeguard agriculture.In this cold and deserted environment,no grains,no gardens,no tree

35、 seriously affect food production and threaten the diversity of crops around the world,the Svalbard Global Seed Vault represents a major step towards ensuring the preservation of hundreds of thousands of crop varieties.This is a seed collection,but more importantly,it is a collection of the traits f

39、xpensive idea.We knew that nothing would provide a definite guarantee.But we were tired,fed up,and frankly scared of the steady,greater losses of crop diversity.The Seed Vault was built by optimists who wanted to do something to preserve options so that humanity and its crops might be better prepare

40、d for change.If it simply resupplied seed gene banks with samples those gene banks had lost,this would repay our efforts.The Seed Vault is about hope and commitmentabout what can be done if countries come together and work cooperatively to accomplish something significant,long-lasting,and worthy of

44、ss Wealthy Than Their Parents The cost of living in the United States is going up,notes writer Alissa Quartz.As is reported in New York Post,Quartz points to“the costs of housing,education and health care in particular.”At the same time,a new study,the report of which is called“The Fading American D

49、conomic recession of 2007 to 2009 is partly to blame,they say.Modern technology also plays a part.Quartz says robots threaten to reduce the earnings of health care workers,reporters,and people who work at supermarkets,drug stores and tax preparation services.In The Washington Post,Robert Samuelson n

50、oted that poor schools,a weak housing industry and too many government rules are also to blame.With all these things,and more,partly responsible,what is the solution?These experts say the answer is complex.But all point to one issue that needs to be examined:economic inequality.Quartz writes that wh
