It is called “Citta Slow”. “Citta” in Italian means city. The concept of “Citta Slow” aims to improve people’s quality of life by creating a more caring and ecologically correct environment through the enjoyment of food art, theatre, munity gathering places and so on.Slow cities are characterized by a way of life that enables people to live slowly. Traditions and traditional ways of doing things are valued. Slow cities have less traffic, less noise and fewer crowds. These cities stand up against the fast pace of life often seen in other cities throughout the world.Towns in Italy have banded together to form an organization called the Slow City Movement. The global organization hopes to help the world by deciding which cities can call themselves Slow Cities and which cities cannot. The principles of the Slow City Movement are those we would like all cities to live by. Hopefully the movement will continue and cities that cannot meet the strict criteria will continue to work towards these principles. The Slow City Movement is already very popular around the world. London is one of the cities that are taking part and it has its own website. The website says: “There are people in cities all over the world who have found all sorts of ways to bring a sense of relaxation to places where it can often be stressful to live. Slow London provides a place for these people to meet and share their ideas.”65． “Citta Slow” is .

More than one million of them die, mostly young children and pregnant women in Africa.For several years in sub-Saharan Africa, the Global Fund and other groups have been paying for bed nets treated with long-lasting insect poison. Malaria is spread by mosquito bites. The groups have also invested in antimalaria drugs for A.C.T., artemisinin-based bination therapy.Recently, a team from the World Health Organization visited Ethiopia, Ghana, Rwanda and Zambia. These countries were the first to distribute the bed nets and medicine. The Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis(肺结核) and Malaria requested a study to see if the interventions were helping.The researchers found that the answer is yes. They looked at records of children under five. They found that malaria deaths fell by sixty-six percent in Rwanda between two thousand five and two thousand seven. Deaths fell by fifty-one percent in Ethiopia, thirty-four percent in Ghana and thirty-three percent in Zambia.The team reported that limited supplies of bed nets could help explain the more limited effects in Zambia and Ghana. But the findings in Ghana were more difficult to explain, because deaths from causes other than malaria fell more sharply. The report says this was in keeping with general improvements in health services.The full report can be found at who. int, on the page for the global malaria program.In another new study, researchers reported that vitamin A and zinc treatments might also help protect young children from malaria. Scientists in Burkina Faso found that malaria reinfection rates fell by thirty – four percent in a group of children treated with vitamin A and zinc.The findings appear in Nutrition Journal, an open access publication that can be read free of charge at nutritionj. .72．Which is probably the most useful in fighting malaria according to the passage?

A．To help the African countries to fight malaria. B．To identify whether their effort to fight malaria was effective. C．To study which people tend to be infected with malaria. D．To study what measures can be taken against malaria.74．What can be concluded from the passage? A．Malaria only appears in Africa. B．Malaria is no longer a threat to African countries. C．The researchers are disappointed with the result of the study. D．People all over the world are trying to treat malaria.75．Which one summarizes the passage best? A．A Success Story for Malaria Control in Africa B．Malaria in Africa C．Say No to Malaria D．How to Treat MalariaDFarmers in the United States sometimes plant switchgrass as a border crop. But could this tall grass lower the nation’s dependence on foreign oil?The Department of Energy plans to invest hundreds of millions of dollars to help produce fuels from materials that are not part of the food supply. Growing corn, or maize, for fuel has raised concerns about the supply and cost of corn available for food and animal feed.Fuel made from switchgrass or forestry waste like sawdust(锯屑) is known as cellulosic(有纤维质的) ethanol(酒精). Department officials say it contains more energy and produces fewer greenhouse gases than ethanol made from corn. Switchgrass is also easier to grow. Last month, the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences published a study。
