Porter then fled to New Orleans, and later to Honduras, leaving his wife and child in Austin He returned in 1897 because of his wife’s continued ill-health, however she died six months later Then,
in 1898 Porter was found guilty and sentenced to five years imprisonment in Ohio At the age of thirty five, he entered prison as a defeated man; he had lost his job, his home, his wife, and finally his freedom He emerged from prison three years later, reborn as O Henry, the pseudonym he now used

The development of genetically modified (GM) plants and animals had led to a huge global controversy Opponents say that GM “Frankenfoods” are a threat to our well-being, and proponents
say that the risks are minimal There is one aspect of the war over GM that is often overlooked
Anyone who wears a cotton shirt these days is using a GM crop Cotton is the only major non-food GM crop at present, but others are coming
GM cotton plants that is not food has not stopped the most passionate GM opponents from objecting If GM cotton is grown in a field next to fields of non-GM cotton, they argue, then how to
keep genes from being transferred from field to field This danger, however, is not as compelling to
the public as possible health hazards in food, so there is no great fury over GM cotton
GM cotton seeds produce higher yields, and they do without the need for pesticides Planting of
GM cotton has increased fivefold since 1997; three-quarter of cotton in America, and over half in China, is now GM Farmers like it because it increases their profits
Other options for non-food GM include new variety of flowers with different colors or scents, tougher grasses for lawns, and plants designed to soak up pollutants from the soil The paper industry provides another example of potential for GM to help produce better and cheaper products Paper is made from pulp, and pulp is generally made from trees Researchers in New Zealand and Chile have been working on insect-resistant pines, and a Japanese firm has combined carrot genes with tree genes to make them grow better in poor soil
Another interesting case is that of tobacco It is not food crop, but it is consumed, and GM tobacco plants with both more and less nicotine have been created The tobacco plant, however, is an ideal target for GM, since its genetics are very well understood and it produces a lot of leaves The
value of the drugs that could be produced by GM tobacco is so high, many farmers could switch from
growing tobacco for cigarettes to growing it for medicine Since medical cost is rising, consumers would also be happy to use drugs produced in bulk by GM tobacco
Question 43: Why does the author mention a cotton shirt in paragraph 1?
A To show that cotton is one of the most popular materials for clothing
B To give an example of a common GM product that is not a food
C To give an example of a controversy surrounding GM products

B There are several major non-food GM products at present

D GM cotton has no significant advantage over controversial cotton
Question 47: According to the passage, why are researchers developing GM trees?
A To improve or make paper less expensive
B To produce more fruit
C To find a way to make paper without pulp
D To replace trees cut down for paper
Question 48: It can be inferred from the passage that GM tobacco _
C makes cigarettes harmless to smokers D can have lower or higher levels of nicotine
