How does Zoe learn coding? She takes classes at Code. org. The website offers hundreds of free coding lessons for kids. In fact, more than 29 million students in 180 countries use it. It hopes to bring coding to even more kids.
“We believe that every kid should have the chance to learn about computers and coding,” said Alice Steinglass, the president of Code. org. “Computers are part of our world,” she said. “It’s important for kids to understand how they work.”

25、It’s often said, “You can’t live only on air.” But now the Chinese scientists can tell you: Maybe you can.
Recently, some Chinese scientists have made a big breakthrough (突破). They turned CO2 into starch (淀粉).
Starch is the main part of rice and corn that we eat every day. Usually, it’s created by plants with CO2, water and sunlight. According to the team’s director Ma Yanhe, it takes the plants nearly sixty steps to produce starch. But now, the team, after six years of hard work, has found a simpler way to do this, with only eleven steps.
“Our study shows that creating something like starch is possible in a laboratory, and this technology may be helpful in many areas,” said Ma.
The scientists first turned CO2 and hydrogen (氢气) into methanol (甲醇). Then they made these methanol molecules (分子) into bigger and more complex (复杂的) molecules. Finally the starch came out.
This method makes it possible to produce food in factories instead of traditional farming. This will not only help make plenty of food, but also save water and land. It may also help recycle CO2 to deal with climate (气候) change, according to China Daily.
The study can be helpful in space, too. Astronauts may no longer need to worry about their food as they travel in space. They may simply turn the CO2 they breathe out into the food they eat!
【1】What achievement have the Chinese scientists made recently?
A.They created starch with CO2.
B.They grew corn in space.
C.They turned O2 into starch.
D.They improved traditional farming.
【2】How many steps do the scientists need to produce starch now?
A.3.
B.6.
C.11.
D.60.
【3】What did the scientists do first to make starch?
A.They recycled CO2 in space.
B.They produced rice and corn on the farm.
C.They turned CO2 and hydrogen into methanol.
D.They made methanol molecules into bigger and more complex ones.
【4】The technology may be helpful in the following areas EXCEPT ________.
A.making food
B.putting sunlight to good use
C.saving water and land
D.dealing with climate change
【5】What’s the best title of the passage?
A.How to Deal with CO2
B.The Advantages of Making Starch
C.How to Make Food in Space
D.China’s First Step in Man-made Food
