20、f of the 20th century.

21、o four months before losing their shape. It is for this reason that these works are not seen in museums in China.

22、 one former resident express disappointment about its loss. Curious, he started to do research and tried out the methods he heard about from older people in the village. After several months of 内江六中高二年级，英语学科试卷，第5页（共 12 页） exploration, Chen finally completed his first successful work. Over the past f
23、ive years, Chen has gradually improved his skills and even begun using new techniques, such as creating some colorful artworks with colored grains of rice.

29、共 12 页） According to Lindsay Turnbull, a plant ecologist at the University of Oxford, if the skin of a woman were photosynthetic like a leaf, the amount of surface area she had would satisfy only 1% of her daily energy requirements to survive.

30、, she would need a lot more skin-about a tennis courts worth, Turnbull estimated. In addition, photosynthesis requires carbon dioxide. Plants have pores(毛孔)that they use to supply the gas to their cells. If photosynthetic humans had chloroplasts(叶绿体), they might need porous skin to let in carbon dio
31、xide, but such pores might let other things leak in or outfor instance, moisture(水分)in ways that might prove harmful to the human body. One might wonder if photosynthetic people might prefer moving to sunny climates. Although such people might receive a small increase from photosynthesis if they mov
32、ed to a desert area, they would likely base other resource issues to deal with, such as a lack of water, Scalzi said. “Theres always going to be trade-offs(平衡).”, he noted. And would photosynthetic humans prefer hole or no clothing to absorb all those rays? In some photosynthetic societies, clothing

34、reat that I would completely change the way Id look to benefit from it.” 28.Why cant humans live off of photosynthesis according to Lindsay Turnbull? A. Because we are less active. B.
