While tearing yellow flowers blanketing hillsides in Los Angeles,Max Kingery has been questioned
about his purpose for killing flowers.
But the clothing designer who used the plants to dye(染色) his spring and summer lines said he is not
accused of stealing the wildflowers in_ California。,Instead,he sees it as an opportunity to ralise awareness
about a destructive flower that grew rapidly in the state following an unusually wet winter: wild black
mustard(芥末). The plant from Eurasia was first brought to _ California in the 1700s,
Mustard was among the most noticeable of wild flowering plants that appeared unexpectedly everywhere
in California this spring,As temperatures warm it is starting to die, making it easy to _ cause wildfires.
Mustard is also a threat to native plants,transforming the landscape,Its leaves and roots prevent the growth
of other species.
Kingery is part of a growing group of artists,designers and chefs who are tackling the problem by
harvesting the plant to use in everything from dyes to foods.
Kingery s line features sweatshirts,pants,and other items dyed naturally using mustard,Artist Erin
Berkowitz of Berbo Studio makes dyes from the species, including the dye for Kingery's clothing line, She
has offered classes along with a chef who makes food out of the mustard greens and flowers。Berkowitz said
her work with Kingery showed the possibilities of what can happen if more people become aware of its uses,
To that end,artist Nadine Allan made a digital magazine,about the uses of black mustard, including to
make paper and a face mask.

Allan said she was motivated to act in part because she has friends who lost nearly everything to

might say they re just a sea of yellow flowers,”she said.

C. To make her art available online.
would put Robinson Crusoe to shame,says a new research,
“It seems like a farfetched idea that animals could survive moving across the sea,”says Matthew
Borths,a researcher at Duke University。 But a comparison of genetic data from modern Malagasy species
with the fossil(化石) record of their ancestors from the African mainland has revealed that this is likely what
happened for most land animals,according to the research,published in May in the journal BiologzcaL
及euzerus,
Animals from mainland Africa would have been trapped on large rafts(木管) of vegetation and floated to
Madagascar,where they eventually evolved (进化) into the wildlife we know today。Some 95 percent of
wildlife are endemic to the country,which means they live nowhere else in the world.
Scientists have three major theories to explain how land animals got to Madagascar: The species were
there before Madagascar divided and became an island, they swam and/or rafted across from mainland Africa
when currents flowed that way,or they crossed land bridges that might have existed at different periods.
In their study,Jason Ali,the study co-author,and Blair Hedges,a biologist at Temple University,
pulled together a large amount of previously published research to test each of these possible origin stories,
The team compared the genes of 28 groups of land animals,including animals from modern-day
Madagascar,with the genes of species on mainland Africa that are the closest relatives。 Based on this
information,they calculated the likely time when the ancestor of each species _ group_ likely arrived in
Madagascar,then evolved into something new.
28. What does the research find about the animals in Madagascar?
A. They come from mainland Africa. B. They are good at swimming.
C. They are the same as those in Asia. D. They tend to live on the coast.
29. What does the underlined word“endemic”mean in paragraph 3?
A. Friendly. B. Native, CC Unknown。 D. Useful.
