Rainforests, it turns out, are not created equal. Take the Amazon rainforest, an area that covers about 7 million square kilometers. But within that huge expanse are all kinds of ecological zones, and some of these zones, says Greg, Asner, are a lot more crowded than others. “Some forests have many species of trees,” he said, “others have few. Many forests are unique from others in terms of their overall species position” And all of these different small areas of forest exist within the giant space that is the Amazon Rainforest,.

So Asner, using the signature technique called airborne laser guided imaging spectroscopy, began to map these different zones from the air. “By mapping the trains of tropical forests from above,” he explains, “we are, for the first time, able to understand how forest position varies geographically.”

The results show up in multicolored maps, with each color representing different kinds of species, different kinds of trees, the different kinds of chemicals they are producing and using, and even the amount of biodiversity, the animal and plant species that live within each zone.

Armed with this information, Asner says decision-makers now have “a first-time way to decide whether any given forest geography is protected well enough or not. If not, then new protections can be put in place to save a given forest from destruction.”

Asner says the information is a great way for decision-makers to develop a “cost-benefit

ratio type analysis.” Conservation efforts can be expensive, so armed with this information, government leaders can ensure they are making the most of their conservation dollars by focusing on areas that are the most biologically diverse or unique.

The next step, Asner says, is to take his project global, and to put his eyes even higher in the sky, on orbital satellites. “The technique we developed and applied to map Peru is ready to go global,” Asner said. “We want to put the required instrumentation on an Earth-orbiting satellite, to map the planet every month, which will give the best possible view of how the world’s biodiversity is changing, and where to put much needed protections.” 25.

In the early 1980s, one of our neighbors asked my mom if she would make a few gift baskets for her to give as gifts for the holidays. My mom agreed and news of the unique gift baskets my mom was making spread like wildfire through the neighborhood. My mom was busy throughout the holiday season, so she asked a friend to help her. When the orders continued after the holiday

season for baby gifts, birthday gifts and more, it occurred to them that maybe this job could be turned into a business and they did it.

My mom went into her business because she had creative ideas. She got orders and filled orders. But there was no goal and no real plan. In 1991, my mom’s partner got into financial trouble and there was not enough money to support either mom or her partner.

So if you are led by your creativity or enthusiasm, make sure you ask yourself what your purpose to o your business is. If you don’t set goals, how will you know which direction to go in? Do you want to create jobs and growth in the economy? Are you looking for a hobby? You can’t keep score if you don’t know what game you are playing.

After my mom’s partner quit, she had to abandon her business to support herself. She swore she would run a business again and do it differently the next time. However, there wasn’t a “next time” for her. She passed away just after her 51st birthday. She never had someone tell her how important having a goal was, she never had a chance to be everything she could be. There are no right or wrong goals, only the ones that matter to you. set them so that you can make progress and achieve success, whatever they may mean to you. 29. What did the writer’s mom do after failing in her business? A. She found a different partner B. She celebrated her 51st birthday

C. She planned to have a second try with different methods D. She decided never to run a business again 30. What can we infer from the passage?

A. The writer began her business with a set goal B. The writer’s mother was a woman without creativity
