V. Read the passage carefully and write the answers ( from 36 to 40). Besides feeling the soil and sniffing the air, farmers can now point gun – shaped infrared metres at their crops to find out when the plants need watering. These portable metres give digital readouts that indicate the difference between a plant’s temperature and that of the surrounding air. When it is short of water, a plant, which normally uses evaporation as a means of cooling, cannot rid itself of the heat it absorbs from sunlight or the heat that may build up from its own metabolism. Therefore, if the metre indicates that a plant is warmer than the air, it may mean that it is time to irrigate. This is really a new aid for farmers. 36.
