Home on the Farm
Between 12,000 and 22,000 years ago, humans learnt how to grow crops to feed the
increasing population. As a result, they stopped living as nomads and built the first
cities. While those early cities grew from agriculture, these days most food is grown
far from population centers. Now though, tiny new farms called Personal Food
Computers (PFC) could change all that.
The PFC looks a lot like a fish tank without water or fish. Instead, inside you'll
see vegetables or herbs growing under purple LED lights and a computer that
controls the air, humidity and temperature. It’s basically a very small farm that is
plugged into the water and electricity supply in any house, office or classroom. The
controlled environment inside the box allows you to recreate any climate in the
world, and this affects the size, color and flavor of the plants. In other words, you
will be able to grow Mexican chili peppers, Valencia oranges, French grapes or
Greek olives in your very own home. Inventor Caleb Harper calls these
environments 'digital climate recipes'.

Page 5 of 9
 Harper explains, "After you grow something, the computer saves that
particular digital climate recipe. So, for example, if you grow basil, you can then
email the recipe to your friends and they will be able to grow exactly the same basil,
or start playing around with it.”
The computers are all connected to a network and the environmental
information is saved in a database. Once the database is properly up and running,
it will have collected thousands, and eventually millions of climate recipes that
anyone can download and share. Harper's goal is to develop the database and
network of PFCs so anyone around the world will be able to either order a PFC kit
online, or just download the instructions and build their own.
He calls it 'open-source agriculture' and believes that in the future it will not
only provide food, but also create jobs and a new generation of young farmers
familiar with digital technology. He sees a world with a billion tiny farms connected
in a sort of global agricultural democracy.

Read the following passage and answer the questions below:

Many people who are looking to get a pet dog get a puppy. There are many reasons why people
get puppies. After all, puppies are cute, friendly, and playful. But even though puppies make good
pets, there are good reasons why you should consider getting an adult dog instead.
When you get a puppy, you have to teach it how to behave. You have to make sure that the puppy
is housebroken so that it does not go to the bathroom inside the house. You have to kteach the
puppy not to jump up on your guests or chew on your shoes. You have to train the puppy to walk
on a leash. This is a lot of work.
On the other hand, when you get an adult dog, there is a good chance that it will already know
how to do all of the previously mentioned things. Many adult dogs have already been
housebroken. Many adult dogs will not jump on or chew things that you do not want them to jump
on or chew. Many adult dogs will be able to walk on a leash without pulling you to the other side
of the street.
Puppies also have a lot of energy and want to play all of the time. This can be fun, but you might
not want to play as much as your puppy does. Puppies will not always sleep through the night or
let you relax as you watch television.
On the other hand, most adult dogs will wait on you to play. What is more, they will sleep when
you are sleeping and are happy to watch television on the couch right beside you.
There is one last reason why you should get an adult dog instead of a puppy. When most people
go to the pound to get a dog, they get a puppy. This means that many adult dogs spend a lot of
time in the pound, and some never find good homes. So if you are looking to get a dog for a pet,
you should think about getting an adult dog. They are good pets who need good homes.

I) Answer the following questions:

1. Why don’t you have to teach adult dogs how to behave?
