But the power generation potential of solar trees is relatively limited, and their primary purpose is to ra

13、ise public awareness about renewable energy by getting people to notice and interact（互动）with solar energy in new ways.Solar trees generally have a firm metal, plastic, or stone base that extends up and out into “branches” on which solar panels are mounted. Beyond this basic structure, there is great

14、 diversity in the design of solar tree units. The solar trees photovoltaic “leaves” absorb sunlight, converting it into electricity that is conducted down through the trunk-like central pillar of the structure to an inside battery. Many designs feature rotating（旋转的）panels that can move throughout th

15、e day in order to obtain the greatest amount of sunlight.Solar trees help power homes, businesses, and public services. They can create shade to help reduce the urban heat island effect and provide shelter in severe weather such as rainstorms and heatwaves, creating greater urban resilience in the f

16、ace of climate change. They also enhance public spaces, providing charging stations, and powering streetlights.In comparison to other kinds of ground-mounted solar panel devices, solar trees dont require much land. They make solar energy generation possible in land-scarce areas that cant support vas

17、t solar arrays, as well as places that lack sufficient rooftop space for panels. However, solar panels are much cheaper than solar trees at present and have far greater energy generation capacity. Therefore, present solar tree designs often serve as a supplemental source rather than as a primary ene

18、rgy source.At present, solar trees arent designed as large-scale solar projects, which limits their ability to contribute to the low-carbon energy transition. Still, their varied designs are appealing. This makes solar trees effective at displaying and thereby educating people about solar energy, an

A burp is when an animal releases gas from its digestive system through its throat. To some, a cow burp mig

23、ht seem like a small thing. But in New Zealand, cows outnumber people two to one. Cows do not easily digest the grass they eat. Instead, they ferment it in multiple parts of their stomach. The process releases a lot of methane（甲烷）gas. The gas does not last as long in the atmosphere as carbon dioxide

24、, but it has a much stronger effect on global warming.To reduce the amount of gas that comes out of cows, scientists in New Zealand are considering changing the food the animals eat, putting a device on cows that changes methane into something safer, or even giving them a vaccine. There is also talk

25、 of feeding cows a special red seaweed or giving them a food addition known as a probiotic（益生菌）, which would help them digest the grass.At a research farm in New Zealand, more than a dozen calves wait to be fed a probiotic, Kowbucha. The probiotic is mixed into a milk-like drink fed to the calves at

26、 the Massey University farm. Early trials suggested that the probiotic supplement can help reduce methane emissions by 20%. “Kowbucha is cost-effective and easy for the farmer to use. It doesnt have any effect on the milk,” said Shalome Bassett, principal scientist at Fonterra Research and Developme

27、nt Centre. The fight against methane is serious in New Zealand. The country once announced plans to tax farmers whose animals produce too much methane gas, but the farmers said they would lose much money if the tax plan went into effect. Aidan Bichan, a farmer that runs Kaiwaiwai Dairies in the town

28、 of Featherston, said he intends to get more milk from each cow. The increased efficiency means he does not need as many cows, which in turn reduces the amount of methane coming from his farm.1. Why do scientists want to prevent cows from burping? A. To improve the quality of milk. B. To help reliev

33、pressive UNESCO World Heritage Albula Line, which is famous for its endless swooping curves and steep inclines（斜坡）. The mountain railways are regarded as great feats of engineering. The 62-kilometer line between Thusis and St Moritz, a world-renowned masterpiece of civil engineering, took just five

34、years to build despite requiring 55 bridges and 39 tunnels.Unlike most Swiss and European railways, which use the standard gauge（标准轨距）between the rails of 1.435 meters, the rails, known as Rhaetische Bahn rails, are just one meter apart. “In order to complete the trains journey successfully, everyth
