But a new study published in Science Advances paints a more complex picture. While organic produce is

25、 likely slightly healthier to eat and, in some ways, more sustainable to grow, there are also downsides .Organic fruits and vegetables typically cost more than conventional ones. To get a certificate asorganic, farmers must meet specific criteria, including growing produce without the use of genetic

26、 engineering and chemical inputs. Without these methods, the growing process typically requires more labor, time, and money, a cost that is passed down to consumers.It s true that in many ways, organic is more sustainable than conventional farming. But when itcomes to environmental concerns such as

27、greenhouse gas output and water loss, the comparison gets complex. Organic farms produce less gas output per acreage. However, because they are barred fromusing genetic engineering, pesticides (杀虫剂 ), and other methods that increase efficiency (效率 ),organic farms also produce an estimated 19% to 25%

28、 less yield than conventional farms. While there isn t a whole lot research on the topic, the few studies that do exist suggest green gas output and water loss might actually be higher on organic farms, on a per unit basis, says study author Verena Seurfert.4精选文库In addition, while organic produce is

29、 likely more nutritious than conventional fruit and vegetables, there nots a lot of evidence to support the claim that these often slight differencesinfluence consumer health.

30、cconsensus on howthese oftenslightdifferences influence human health.Still, Seurfert stresses that ifyou can afford to eat organic,you should do so. Organic farmsprovidesafer workenvironments forworkers, plus they support great biodiversity.The realtakeaway from her study is not that organic is bad

31、but that the practice needs more study to increaseyield without lowering sustainability.But if you can affordt to buy organic produce, don stress too much, particularlyfrom anutritional perspective.28.

32、.C. Benefits.D. Differences.29. Which key factor makes it hard to compare organic farming and conventional farming when it comes to environmental concerns?A. The yield.B. The price.C.

34、ore nutritious.C. It helps keep the variety of plants.D. It s safer for consumers.DEvery ocean lover knows the dangers of getting caught in a rip current (离岸流 ). Experiencedswimmers know it is relativelyeasy to escape the narrow channel of the fast moving water byfloatingand allowing it to drag you

35、further into the ocean or by swimmingalongside the shore.However, inexperienced beachgoers often panic, and try to swim to land, placing themselves at risk of drowning due to tiredness. According to the US National Ocean Service, the currents kill about100 Americans each year and account for 80% of

36、all lifeguard rescues. These scary statistics may soon be a thing of the past, thanks to Clever Girl, a smart buoy ( 浮标 ) that warns swimmers of the presence of deadly rip currents.The smart device is the brainchild of Australian teenager Maddison King, who created Clever Girl as a project for her G

38、精选文库ocean floor, is fitted with a small propeller (螺旋桨 ). When the water travels at speeds of over 70centimeters per second, it spins the propeller fast enough to power the light atop the buoy, warning swimmers to stay clear of the area.Though it sounds simple enough, the youngster had to overcome n

39、umerous design challenges.For instance, she picked a red light since it is easy to see in the bright sunlight and also because thecolor serves as a universalwarningsign for tourists that do notspeak the locallanguage.
