4．（8分）Jane Goodall was born in England，on April 3，1934.At eight，Jane was attracted by the Dr.Dolitle
books and dreamed of living with the animals in Africa.

saved every cent for her goal.
At 23，she left for Kenya in Africa.There she met the famous scientist Dr.Louis，who offered her a job in a
nature reserve.Dr.Louis believed Jane was the right person to study the chimpanzees because she had great interest
in animals and nature and knew a lot about them.Dr.Louis found Jane hadn't received formal training at school，
but this was an advantage because she wouldn't be influenced by traditional thoughts.So Dr.Louis decided to send
her to the Gombe Stream Game Reserve （GSGR）to study wild chimpanzees.
In 1960，Jane arrived at the GSGR.The early weeks there were hard.Jane had a serious fever.After getting
well，she was challenged by terrible local environment.
Thick trees and bushes made it difficult for her to go through the reserve.And often she hiked hundreds of
miles without seeing a chimpanzee.Even when some chimpanzees were found，they ran away in fear.Later，Jane
learned to communicate with them.
Finally，an older chimp accepted Jane and other group members also allowed her to watch them.
With years of hard work，Jane made groundbreaking discoveries.Chimpanzees hunt for meat，use tools，and
even make tools.And chimpanzees have feelings just like human beings.These findings made many scientists think
that their old ideas about the animal might be wrong.
After living in Gombe for many years，Jane began to worry because chimpanzees were losing their homes as

asking people to save the chimpanzees and forests.In 1977，she founded the Jane Goodall Institute （JGI），a global
conservation organization.Later，the organization launched programs which encourage young people around the
world to join in protecting the environment，wildlife，or their communities.

6．（8分）When you think of a new place for growing food，you might think of Mars.But one Italian family believes
one possible place is right here on the Earth：the ocean.
Nemo's Garden is the world's first underwater system of land plants.Located off the coast of Noli，Italy，it is
made up of several greenhouses.Each of them is connected to the seafloor. "The aim of it is to change farming，and

greenhouses.When it's time to collect the vegetables，a diver will cut them，place them in bags and send them to
