▶ Your Answer : The reading states that GM corps provide the human beings with many good things in some aspects. The author said that GM crops can solve the problem of world hunger, reduce the price of food and produce vaccines made more widely available. However, The lecturer argues the statements that GM corps always have good influences on the world does not make sense. First, he states the reason why there are many people in hunger worldly is not a lack of food produce capacity. While the quantity of food is sufficient, the distribution of food are not doing well in manner of equality in the whole world. Therefore, if GM crops make the volume of food more higher than the earlier, the statues of the world hunger cannot be changed. In a few words, GM crops are not the fundamental solution for the world hunger. Secondly, he argues the statement that GM corp can reduce the price of food is false. This is because the invention cost of the GM crop is so high. The companies that make and sell the GM seeds want to set a high enough price on the seeds to get back the money paid for the inventions. And also GM crops need a lot of water for planting. GM crops can increase the price of food considering the expensive GM seeds and the cost of water. Finally, he insist that the vaccines made by GM crops need to be stored in the cooling condition as same as other vaccines because the main material of vaccines using GM crops is tomato or banana. And also the inventions of vaccines using GM crops can not be achieved as same as other vaccines. That is, It is no different between vaccines made by GM crops and other vaccines. |
