What is GM Food?


Genetically modified food is produced from plants which have had their genetic makeup tweaked in the lab. Scientists ―cut and paste‖ a gene from another organism into a plant‘s DNA to give it a new characteristic. This can be to increase yield or to allow the plant to exist in a more hostile environment than normal. Pro-GM scientists say this means cheaper more plentiful food but opponents argue we do not know the consequences of meddling with nature.

In GM food the genetic code is:

A
Misunderstood
B
Discarded
C

This is located in Exeter, a pretty cathedral city in the southwest of England. Here employees – and computers - supply weather forecasts for much of the world.'' Speak Up. Ano XXIII, nº 275.

The author believes a person’s existence:

LIKE A RIVER


(Leia o texto para responder a questão)

Gradually the river grows wider, the banks recede, the water flow more quietly, and in the end, without any visible break, they become part of the sea, and painlessly lose their individual being. Bertrand Russell (1872 – 1970), English mathematician, philosopher, writer and pacifist.
A
Should be smaller than a river.
B
Ought to be similar to a river.
C
Should be spent on a river.
D
Should be like a river at first.
