短文填空(七)　地理位置猜测游戏+太空蔬菜 A　[2020·原创]‎ ‎　　GeoGuessr is a new online travel game. It teaches you geography while visiting places far and wide. The game is easy to play, but nearly impossible to win.‎ GeoGuessr uses images(图像) from Google Street View. After looking at an image, you guess where Google Street View took the photo. No matter how much you have travelled, you have not been to as many places as Google Street View. Its cameras keep taking photos around the world.‎ How to play the game The programme shows an image of a place and a map of the world. Some pictures are beautiful while others look barren(贫瘠的) without much plant life. ‎ If you know where the photo is from, click on the Google map to place your marker. Click on the Make Guess button. A new image will appear and show the distance between the area you chose and the actual(实际的) location. You get five chances to guess the location. After the fifth one, you see a map showing your guesses, the correct locations and the number of points you earned.‎ Helpful tips Look around and see if you can find any words on signs to show the local language. For example, if both French and English are on signs, Canada might be a good guess.‎ Look closely at the plants to see what the latitude(纬度) might be. Palm trees may mean a more tropical climate(热带气候). ‎ Make a note of whether cars drive on the right or the left side of the road. If cars are driving on the left, that narrows(缩小) your guesses. ‎ Look at road signs. If the road signs use international symbols(符号), the location probably is not in the USA.Very few places in the USA use international road signs. ‎ GeoGuessr can be played on a computer or a mobile device. You must connect it to the Internet.‎ The more you play the game, the better you will be at geography. But be careful! The game can make you very addictive(上瘾的).‎ 根据上面短文内容填空。‎ ‎1.GeoGuessr is a new online 　　　　　　　　. You can learn geography while visiting places far and wide.

The seeds are affected by the radiation(辐射) and low gravity in outer space. When they are brought back to the Earth, these seeds produce vegetables that are bigger, healthier and more nutritious(有营养的) than normal vegetables. However, some people worry about eating space vegetables. They think that space vegetables might not be good for us and could give us cancer as a result of their exposure(暴露) to radiation in space. People should not be afraid because space vegetables are actually perfectly healthy.‎ Here are some facts that you should know about space vegetables:‎ Space vegetables are grown from seeds that are carefully chosen. When seeds are brought back from space, they are tested to make sure that the vegetables they grow will be safe to eat. There are no traces(痕迹) of radiation after testing.‎ Space vegetables are better for you than normal vegetables. For example, space tomatoes stay fresh for twenty days, which is one week longer than normal tomatoes. Another popular space vegetable is the peppers. Space peppers contain 20 per cent more vitamin C than normal peppers.‎ After genetically modified(转基因) foods came on the market, people worried that they were eating unknown things. For example, if nut genes(坚果基因) are put inside potatoes, people allergic(过敏的) to nuts might get very sick from eating these potatoes because they do not know they are also eating nuts. Unlike genetically modified foods, space vegetables have not been genetically changed. This means that no new genes are put into the vegetables. Therefore, they won't do harm to your health.‎ 根据上面短文内容填空。‎ 4‎ ‎1.According to the article, the seeds brought back from space produce 　　　　　　　　vegetables.
