28、 time over toys, food, attention, what to watch on televisionyou name it, we quarreled about it at some point. How could my sisters be my best friends? They werent the same age as I. We all had our own friends in school.My mother never let the three of us forget that sisters are lifelong friends. He

29、r wish was to give us something that she never had. Growing up as an only child, she longed for siblings. When she gave birth to three daughters, her dream had only just begun. She had given each of us a gift and she wanted to make sure we did not take that gift for granted. She would constantly tel

30、l us how lucky we were. But there were other, more subtle (巧妙的) ways that she encouraged us to grow closer. She never showed favoritism（偏愛）to one daughter over the other, as not to cause jealous or bitterness between sisters. She never showed favoritism to one sport: we did skating, jogging, swimmin

31、g, etc, so that we developed common interests. And when we were teenagers, Mom always punished us equally, giving us yet another bonding（情誼的，紐帶的）experience. We didnt always get along beautifully and fought just like any other siblings. But somewhere in between Moms lectures, the family vacations and

32、 the shared memories, we realized that our mother was right. Today I share things with my sisters that I do with no one else. My sister Cindy and I ran the New York City Marathon together, side by side, even holding hands when we crossed the finish line. When my sister Karen got married, I was her m

33、aid of honor. Cindy and I traveled through Europe together and even shared an apartment for two years. The three of us trust each other with our greatest secrets.

37、e you picture rolling hills in the country covered with cows and cornstalks. Some scientists, engineers and city planners say the farms of the future could rise straight into the air-in skyscrapers in the worlds most populated cities. It might sound farfetched, but in fact, some of the technology fo

38、r growing crops indoors already exists. The scientists at the South Pole research station enjoy fresh salads every day from vegetables they grow in their own greenhouse. And NASA has been experimenting for years with methods for growing fresh fruits on the moon or even on Mars. As is known, traditio

39、nal farming takes a plot of land as big as the entire state of Virginia just to grow enough food for 8 million people, says ecologist Dichson Despommer.

41、ys. To top it off, by the year 2050, the world population will grow by another 3 billion. “Where will we grow the food for all these people?” Vertical（垂直的） farming-growing crops in skyscrapers, tens of stories high-is the answer,” says Despommier. Others say it could provide new uses for hundreds of

42、 abandoned buildings in cities around the world.

It can be tricky to regulate(調(diào)節(jié)) climate conditions indoors
