A successful experiment (实验) in the deserts of Dubai (迪拜) may deal with hunger around the world. A team of Chinese scientists has tried to develop a kind of rice that grows in salt water. Not only that, it produces far more rice than you can imagine.

Back in January, 2018, the researchers were invited to plant some of the saltwater rice in different areas of the desert. Usual water is too expensive to waste on rice in those desert areas. After five months of growth, they produce up to 7.8 tons of rice a hectare (公顷). At the same time, the world average (平均数) stands at 3.3 tons a hectare.

The researchers from China are continuing the experiment by setting up a 100-hectare salt-water rice farm in 2019. It will show the costs of production and different farming skills. They hope to plant saltwater rice on more farms in 2020.

Their dream is to cover up to 10% of the country with the saltwater rice fields—and if the skills are successful in Dubai’s bad farming weather, then the farms could “feed the whole Arab world and they help to ensure (确保) food security (安全)”.

Yuan Longping is the “father of hybrid rice” and leader of the research group. He says that there are over l million square kilometers of land in China that is not used because there is too much salt in the soil. By planting saltwater rice on just one-tenth of this land, we hope it will feed over 200 million more people.

1.What kind of water do the researchers use to grow rice?

A.Usual water. B.Salt water. C.Hot water. D.Cold water.

2.What can we learn from Paragraph 3?

A.The researchers from China won’t plant saltwater rice on farms in 2020.

B.The experiment of setting up saltwater rice farm will cost much money.

C.Chinese researchers hope to plant saltwater rice on more farms by doing experiments.

D.The experiment won’t show any different farming skills.

3.What does the underlined word “they” refer to?

A.The farms. B.The skills. C.The scientists. D.The Arab world.

4.What does Yuan Longping think of saltwater rice?

A.It’s terrible. B.It’s impossible. C.It’s unnecessary. D.It’s hopeful.

The right name is important in the business world. All you have to do is think of the names for some of the products you buy every day and you’ll agree that the name and the product are connected in everyone’s mind.

In many countries, successful trade or brand(商标) names are protected by law so that other companies cannot make the same product by copying. Businesses register(注册) a company or a product name with the government. In fact, more than 1,000 product and company names are registered every hour. Many companies spend a lot of money to find the right name for their products. A good example of this is in the car industry. Some successful names for cars have powerful associations(联系). The Ford Mustang and the Jaguar are only two examples of choosing the names of animals that are fast and strong.

When a U. S company decides to sell its product in another country, it has to make sure that the product name translates(翻译) properly. When Coca-Cola introduced its soft drink to China, it looked for the right name. It wanted a name that would do two things. One was to present its image in Chinese and the second was to be close to its first brand name—Coke. It took some efforts before finding the right word — which sounds similar and translates as “happiness in the mouth”. Asian company names are not new to the United States. The brand names of Samsung and Sony have been successful. Finding the right brand name is a big business. Asian companies that sell to foreign markets pay to find a name that will connect with its customers. There are even naming companies that offer help in inventing product names. These companies can charge up to $100,000 a word for their good names. But it’s worth it. Successful companies know how important the right brand names are for their development.

1.Why are trade names protected by law in many countries?

A．To make companies pay for naming service.

B．To help people choose the best products.

C．To present good images of the products.

D．To prevent good images from being copied.

2.What can we learn from the passage?

A. Many companies care about the cost of finding the right names.

B. Creative trade names can help companies to have a larger sale.

C. The government often does business with naming companies.

3.What’s the best title for the passage?

A．The Importance of Right Brand Names        B．The Development of Names

C．The Rules of Naming                     D．The Methods of Choosing Names
