AN APRI L FOOL’ S JOKE: THE NOODLE HARVEST April Fool’s day, or April 1st , i s known i n m any countri es as a day for playi ng jokes on others. It is usual y a tim e when chil dren m ake fun of each other, but sometim es other peopl e can get caught i n the fun to. O ne of the m ost fam ous jokes in Engl and took pl ace on Bri ti sh tel evision i n 1957. It was a Monday ni ght when there were al ways many seri ous programm es on the tel evision. One of them was cal led Panorama, thi s show expl ored probl em s and progres al over the world, so nobody was surpri sed when i t began with a report on the excel ent noodle harvest i n the south Swi tzerl and. The programm e m enti oned two reasons for the good crop: an unusual l y warm wi nter and the di sappearance of the i nsect that attacked the nodl e crop every year. The reporter showed many noodl e trees wi th the farm ers pul ing noodles off them and putti ng them i nto baskets. The peopl e watchi ng were tol d that they m ay not have heard of noodl es from this part of the worl d because nodles were grown as part of sm al fam il y busineses. The programm e m akers m akers reali zed that peopl e mi ght wonder why noodles were al ways the sam e si ze so that they explai ned that “it was the result of many years’ patient research with the tree to produce noodl es of exactly the same l ength. ” But even so they expl ained, the l ife of a nodl e farmer was not easy. “The last two weeks of March are an anxious tim e for noodl e farm ers. There i s al ways a chance of very col d weather spoil ing their crop. Then it is dificult for them to get top prices on the markets. ” Many peopl e in Engl and beli eved thi s story. They rang the BBC to fi nd out hoe to grow thei r own nodl e tre. They were told to “pl ace a piece of noodl e in a tin of tomato sauce and hope for the best. ” This may sem very sil ly, but in the 1950s very few British peopl e travel ed aboard for thei r holi days and even fewer of them ate noodl es. So it seem ed posi bl e to im agi ne that noodl es grew on tree li ke appl es, pears and nuts. Peopl e also trusted the Panoram a programm e for i ts careful research and serious i nform ation. So they were shocked to find the next day that they had al believed an April Fool’s joke. Even today the report of the noodl e harvest is remembered as one of the best April Fool ’s jokes ever! Unit 4 Comm uni cati on: No Pr oblem ? Yesterday, another student and I, representing our university’s student association, went to the Capital International Airport to met this year’s international students. They were i ng to study at Bei ji ng University. We should take them fi rst to thei r dormi tori es and then to the student cantee. After an hour of wai ti ng for thei r fli ght to arive, I saw several young people enter the wai ti ng area l ooking around curi ousl y. I stood for a mi nute watchi ng them and then went to greet them . The first person to arive was Tony Garcia from Col um bi a, cl osel y fol owed by Jul ia Smi th from Bri tai n. After I m et them and then introduced them to each other, I was very surprised. Tony approached Jul ia, touched her shoul der and ki ssed her on the chek! She stepped back appearing surpri sed and put up her hands, as i f in defence. I guessed that there was probabl y a major misunderstanding. Then Akira Nagata from Japan came in smil ing, together with Gee Cook from Canada. As they were introduced, Gee reached his hand out to the Japanese student. Just at that moment, however, Akira bowed so his nose touched Gee’s moving hand. “十二五 ” 期間 延壽縣新建養(yǎng)豬合作社 萬頭生豬養(yǎng)殖擴(kuò)建項(xiàng)目 可行性研究報(bào)告 項(xiàng)目名稱：延壽縣新建養(yǎng)豬合作社 萬頭生豬養(yǎng)殖擴(kuò)建項(xiàng)目 建設(shè)單位 ： 哈爾濱 市延壽縣新建養(yǎng)豬專業(yè)合作社 項(xiàng)目負(fù)責(zé)人： 薛云昌 聯(lián)系電話： 13304515611 項(xiàng)目建設(shè)地點(diǎn)： 哈爾濱市 延壽縣加信鎮(zhèn)新建村 項(xiàng)目建設(shè)時(shí)間： 二 ○一一 年 七 月至 二 ○一三 年 十二月 可研報(bào)告編制時(shí)間：二 ○一一 年 七 月 hel ps crops grow strong and heal thy. Organic farmers, therefore, often prefer using natural waste from animals as ferti lizer. They feel that thi s makes the soi l in their fiel ds ri cher i n minerals and so more fertil e. Thi s also keps the air, soil , water and crops free from chemi cal s. Organic farmers also use many other methods to kep the soil fertile. They often change the knd of crop in each field every few years, for example, growi ng corn or wheat and then the next year peas or soybeans. Crops such as peas or soybeans put important mi nerals back into the soil , maki ng it ready for crops such as wheat or corn that ned rich and fertil e soil. Organi c farmers al so pl ant crops to use different level s of soi l, for example, planting peanuts that use the ground’s surface fol owed by vegetables that put down deep roots. Some anic farmers prefer planting grass between crops to prevent wind or water from carying away the soil , and then leavi ng it i n the ground to bee a natural ferti lizer for the next year’s crop.
