28、 Too much metal in the soil is considered pollution. Yet too little metal in a persons diet can cause health problems. An American scientist says the answer to both problems may be plants that take up large amounts of metal in their tissues. David Salt is an expert on plants at Purdue University in

29、West Lafayette, Indiana. He is working with plants that store large amounts of metals. In recent years, scientists have shown interest in using such plants to clean up harmful waste materials. Professor Salt says such plants also could be used to improve peoples diets or even to create foods that fi

30、ght cancer. Humans need a number of metals in their diets, including iron and zinc. These metals are needed in very small amounts, however. That is why they are called micronutrients. The lack of micronutrients is blamed for health problems in many developing countries. Children and pregnant women a

31、re mostly affected. Recently, Mr. Salt announced that he has identified and copied the genes from a kind of plant that stores metals in its tissues. He says his study suggests it may be possible to develop plants that contain minerals needed for good health. For example, the metal selenium is a stro

32、ng anti-cancer agent. Some wild plants store selenium naturally. Mr. Salt says foods to fight cancer might be created if genes from these plants could be moved into crop plants. Locoweed, which is a common plant in the western U.S., stores selenium. Professor Salt says it may be possible to create c

33、ancer-fighting foods from it. He and scientists from a company called Unicycle Therapies have copied the gene that causes locoweed to take up selenium from the soil. Many people take pills to add important minerals or vitamins to their diet. However, Mister Salt notes that most selenium products sol

34、d in health food stores are of little use. That is because the human body can only take in and use selenium if it is in the right chemical form. The scientist says his team would like to develop a vegetable crop high in selenium. He wants to create an anti-cancer product in the foods we already eat.

35、 41 According to Pro. Salt, plants that take up large amounts of metal in their tissues can be used to _. （ A） clean polluted soil and cure disease like cancer （ B） clean up harmful waste materials in soil and improve peoples diet （ C） produce large number of micronutrients such as iron and zinc （ D

36、） create food with important minerals or vitamins 42 In many developing countries, people fall sick because _. （ A） they dont absorb enough micronutrients from their diet （ B） they dont have plants that take up metal in their tissues （ C） there is no locoweed in their countries （ D） there is no iron

37、 and zinc containing in their food 43 Mr. Salt wants to create anti-cancer foods by _. （ A） copying tissues from wild plants that take up selenium naturally into crop plants （ B） copying genes that causes the plants to take up selenium from the soil （ C） moving selenium from the tissues of wild plan

38、ts into crop plants （ D） moving genes from wild plants that take up selenium naturally into crop plants 44 To add selenium by taking pills are probably not effective because _. （ A） the human body is not in the right chemical form （ B） the human body does not accept it （ C） the selenium is, not in t

39、he right chemical form to be absorbed （ D） the selenium is difficult to absorb 45 What is the main idea of the article? （ A） Plants that absorb metals are being studied by scientists. （ B） Scientists are trying to create cancer-fighting crops. （ C） Some wild plants can store micronutrients naturally
