More teenagers are posting clear pictures of themselves on the Internet－unaware they can end up on dangerous networks.

A new report into online child protection has found more teenagers are posting explicit photographs of themselves on the Internet. The details released by the Child Exploitation and Online Protection Centre (CEOP) highlight an increasing trend of risque (有伤风化) images that young people have taken of themselves appearing on the web.

A quarter of all reports related to online training, 434 involved children being encouraged to perform a sexual act online, while another 135 involved someone attempting to meet a child in real life

Humans moving to Mars in the future will not go hungry as a new study by a NASA scientist reveals that the red planet may be beneficial to growing potatoes.

The study was conducted by NASA scientist Chris McKay and was sponsored by the International Potato Center. McKay’s study refers to the possibility of growing potatoes on Mars by studying the soil from the Pampas de La Joya desert. The experiment was conducted by the University of Engineering and Technology in Peru.

According to the study, the Peruvian desert’s soil has similar properties to the soil on the Red Planet. McKay assumes that if potatoes can grow in the Pampas de La Joya environment, then it can grow on Martian soil too. The recent experiment will not only benefit future Mars explorations but also our technological and biological future. Growing potatoes in extreme environments can mainly solve the lack of food astronauts experience when in space.

The International Potato Center detailed over 4,000 potato varieties that can be suitable candidates to be grown on Mars. McKay’s study reveals that it may even be possible to grow potatoes by hydroponics（水栽培）and aeroponics （空气种植法）.These technologies will allow nutrients to be delivered by water and air directly to plants without the need for soil.

The new discovery can also be a way to solve hunger on Earth. The UN Food and Agriculture Organization has reported climate change as a major threat to progress in various fields, but especially to food safety. More than 795 million people are estimated to go hungry worldwide. The potential of potatoes growing in harsh and warm climates is a good indication that the crop may, in fact, be a solution not only to Martian environment but that of Earth as well.

32. When Mckay was doing his research, . A. he studied the soil taken back from Mars B. he was supported by an organization C. he tried to grow potatoes in his lab D. he spent a lot of time in the Peruvian desert

33. What is the main benefit if the experiment is a success? A. Helping explore outer space successfully. B. Reducing the population on the earth. C. Solving the world’s hunger problem. D. Providing fresh food to astronauts.

34. What can be inferred from the fourth paragraph? A. Hydroponics and aeroponics will work well on Mars. B. Potatoes need rather a small amount of nutrients. C. The International Potato Center acts very activity. D. Potato has the most kinds among vegetables. 35. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. Potatoes May Grow on Mars B. Use Circumstances on Mars C. Potatoes Have a New Home D. Find Ways to Plant Potatoes
