A renewable-energy “oasis” scheduled to be built more may serve as a proving ground for new technologies designed to bring green living to the desert. The planned research center is part of the Sahara Forest Project which does not mean it will be built in Africa. The center is meant to be a small-scale version of massive green complexes that project managers hope to build in deserts around the globe. Experts are now examining arid sites in Australia, the U.S., the Middle East, and Africa that could support the test facility. “The Sahara Forest Project is a holistic approach for creation of local jobs, food, water, and energy, utilizing relatively simple solutions mimicking design and principles from natur.” said Frederic Hauge. For instance, special greenhouses would use hot desert air and seawater, make fresh water for growing crops, solar energy would be collected to generate power, and algae pools would offer a renewable and easily transportable fuel supply. In addition, planting trees near the complex would trap atmospheric greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide while restoring any natural forest cover that has been lost to drought and timber harvesting. “From my perspective as an environmentalist, this could be a game changer in how we produce biomass for food and energy, and how we are going to provide fresh water for the future, “Hauge said. But not all experts are as enthusiastic about the project. In terms of the reforestation plans. “Trying to grow trees in the Sahara desert is not the most appropriate approach,” said a forest ecologist at the University of California. After all, even though it was literally green in the past, the Sahar was never heavily forested. (SBMPTN 2012) Which of the following is relevant withthe idea of 'a small-scale version' (paragraph 1 line 6) described in thepassage? A. Grade XII students work in groups in the biology laboratory. B. Budi focuses his research on thephysical aspects of the temple. C. Anita studies the chance of growing an apple with little water in a pot. D. The project surveys the number of cars passing by the bridge a day. C. Tina examines the relationshipbetween physical fitness and learning.

Text A Soaring carbon emissions from a meat hungry developing world could be cut back substantially by improving animal breeds and feed, according to a study. It is estimated that livestock farming contributes 1 8-5 1 per cent of the world's greenhouse gas emissions. Demand for livestock products is predicted to double by 2050 as a result of growing populations, urbanization, and better income in the developing world, which will cause emissions to rise. The study, published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Science, suggests that 12 per cent of total livestock-related emissions in 2030 could easily be shortened with simple improvements in production. These include: switching to more nutritious pasture grasses; supplementing livestock diets based on grass with small amounts of crop residues or grains; restoring degraded grazing lands; growing trees that trap carbon while producing leaves that livestock could eat; and adopting more productive breeds. "Organizations from the West, especially the World Watch Institute, have continued to blame livestock-keeping for being one of the major polluters of the world, yet livestock keeping's positives by far outweigh the negatives, " said Mario Herrero, co-author of the paper and a senior scientist at International Livestock Research Institute. Text B Livestock farmers in developing countries have a relatively small environ mental footprint and their animals provide them with food, income and transport for their crops, said John Byron. " What these farmers need are technological options and economic incentives that help them intensify their production in sustainable ways;' he added. Steinfeld, coordinator of the Livestock, Environment and Development Initiative at the Food and Agriculture Organization, said: "If one were able to connect this to small holder development by making poor farmers benefit through the possibility of carbon offsets and carbon markets that would indeed create a win-win situation where one would have socioeconomic benefits, targeting poor people, while reducing the carbon 'hoofprint' i. e. the carbon footprint of livestock. Improving livestock production should be done to improve livelihoods and not just for climate reasons, said Kirtana Chandraseka ran, food campaigner for friends of the Earth. She added that intensive agriculture also contributes to biodiversity loss so "it's very dangerous" just to look at lowering emissions " when there's a whole host of other factors affecting improvement in livestock farming". factors affecting livestock farming.

Identifying ingredients in old paintings can help curators decide how best to maintain, display and restore them. The 17th-century Dutch artis, Rembrandt, was found to use wheat, according to new advanced analysis of two of his works. It is the first study to identify wheat starch in any of Rembrandt's work, even though scientists have performed numerous analyses on more than 150 of his. In Rembrandt's time, artists mixed their own paints, which they then spread onto canvas in layers. Often, individual layers of the same piece of art contained different binding agents, pigments, varnishes and other ingredients. Besides color, each layer was mixed to just the right level of thickness, glossines, texture, evenness on the surface, drying time and more. However, paint layers are though to analyze because they are spread so incredibly thin. The thinness ones rise just a thousandth of a millimeter above the layer below them. Using a variety of chemical and physical analytical methods, along with old written records, scientists have been able to identify pigments and other inorganic materials in many ancient paintings For the new study, the scientist used some of the most high-tech equipment around to look at the "Portrait of Nicolaes Van Bambeeck," which Rembrandt van Rijn painted in 1641. First they took a crosssection from a miniscule section of the painting. Then they used a variety of methods to probe the layers, including a technique called Time of Fly — Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry (ToF-SIMS). This technique involves sending a focused, highenergy beam of ions at the layered sample, then observing the ions that bounce back. By analyzing the energy and chemical nature of the ejected ions, scientists can deduce detailed information about the types of elements and chemical bonds held within. For the second greyish layer of paint on the "Portrait of Nicolaes van Bambeeck," the scan showed, Rembrandt mixed oil and a small amount of lead with wheat flour. It's not clear yet whether Rembrandt used wheat earlier or continued to use ingredient after painting the "Portrait of Nicolaed van Bambeeck," who was a rich wool merchant. But the researchers also found wheat in the "Portrait of Agatha Bas," the merchant's wife. What does the word ‘they’ in “. . . . own paints, which they then .... “ refers to? A. layers B. artists C. paints D. pigments E. ingredients
