(1.5 pts) Illuminating Cities with Living Light: The Future of Bioluminescent Street Plants In a groundbreaking initiative to revolutionize urban lighting, scientists and city planners are exploring the potential of bioluminescent plants as an eco-friendly alternative to traditional street lighting. By incorporating genes from fireflies and deep-sea organisms into specific plant species, researchers have successfully created plants that emit a soft, blue-green glow during nighttime hours. The city of Amsterdam has been selected for the first large-scale pilot project, with plans to line major bicycle paths with these glowing plants by 2025. These modified plants can produce light for up to six hours after sunset, consuming only water, nutrients, and carbon dioxide. Initial studies suggest they could reduce energy consumption by 35% compared to conventional street lighting while significantly decreasing light pollution.
Beyond energy savings, these bioluminescent plants offer unexpected benefits for urban ecosystems. The natural light they emit is less disruptive to nocturnal wildlife, helping preserve local biodiversity. Additionally, the plants absorb CO2 and release oxygen, contributing to cleaner city air. While scientists are optimistic about this technology's potential, challenges remain, including maintaining consistent light intensity and developing plants suitable for different climates. Several cities worldwide, including Singapore and Vancouver, have expressed interest in implementing similar projects, marking a significant step toward sustainable urban lighting solutions. 23. The bioluminescent plants use genes from fireflies to create their glow. 24. The technology is ready for immediate worldwide implementation. 25. The modified plants help reduce light pollution in urban areas. 26. All major cities will replace their street lights with bioluminescent plants by 2030. 27. According to the passage, which city has been chosen for the first large-scale implementation of bioluminescent plants? A. Singapore B. Vancouver C. Amsterdam D. Tokyo 28. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a benefit of bioluminescent street plants? A. Reduced energy consumption B. Improved air quality C. Enhanced biodiversity protection D. Decreased traffic accidents V. Use the correct form of the word given in each sentence. (1.5 pts) 29.
