UNIT 1 單元主題訓(xùn)練Ⅰ.閱讀理解ATo deal with a changing world, we have to change as well. Transforming land into farms removes forests and worsens climate change. But we need to grow more food to support a growing global population. What can we do?Scientists have discovered that plants grow best under a certain type of light, which can be provided by red and blue LEDs. The combination of these lights at the right level makes a space look pink. Since “pinkhouses” supply their own light, they don't need to have fragile glass walls and ceilings. And they can be set up anywhere, including the places that don't get the amount of light greenhouses need.Since pinkhouses can pack food in huge columns, one of these farms doesn't need a lot of land. Farmers can set up pinkhouses in cities. They completely control temperature and light, which can help some plants grow twice as well in pinkhouses as they do in traditional farming. Pinkhouses can allow for many more harvests per year since farming doesn't have to stop in winter.Even though pinkhouses are a great way to grow crops, lighting and heating an indoor space can be very expensive. It doesn't make sense to grow foods that take up a lot of space or that we need to grow lots of, like wheat, rice, and corn, in a pinkhouse. We will still need to grow those crops in fields. We can start farming smarter.Farmers will use satellite imagery to figure out exactly where to plant each crop. Think of a mixture of just the right crops, rather than a rectangle (長方形) of one type of plant. Sensors in the fields will measure the soil's water level, temperature, and chemical content. They will even be able to detect insects and send out notifications to a smartphone app. Irrigation systems will be tied to weather forecasting programs, allowing for very precise watering and care, all calculated to get the best plant growth and yield.語篇解讀：本文是一篇說明文。文章講述了如何促進農(nóng)業(yè)生產(chǎn)的兩個措施：第一個措施是“粉房子”種植模式，第二個是農(nóng)民采取的更智能的種植模式。1．From the text, we know that the pinkhouse ________.A．covers lots of spaceB．needs enough sunlightC．is made of glass or plasticD．can make plants grow larger解析：選D　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段中的“They completely ... traditional farming.”可知，“粉房子”可以完全控制溫度和光線，這使得一些在“粉房子”里的植物生長得比傳統(tǒng)農(nóng)場里的植物好一倍，所以“粉房子”能使植物長得更大，故選D項。2．What does the author intend to do in Paragraph 4?A．Summarize the previous paragraphs.B．Emphasize the advantage of pinkhouses.C．Introduce a new topic of the discussion.D．Add some background information.解析：選C　推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段第一句可知，雖然“粉房子”是個種植農(nóng)作物的好方法，但是光照和加熱室內(nèi)空間費用昂貴，農(nóng)民依然需要在田野里種糧食，且要采取更智能的種植方式。因此接下來作者將要討論如何采取更智能的種植方式。由此可知，第四段的目的是提出一個新的討論話題，故選C項。3．What is the result of the smart farming?A．Farmers will have a better harvest.B．Farmers can grow different plants.C．Farmers needn't care about the weather.D．Plants can protect themselves against insects.解析：選A　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段最后一句可知，更智能的種植方式會帶來精確的澆灌和照料，以便使植物達到最佳生長狀態(tài)并獲得豐收，故選A項。4．What's the best title for the text?A．Building PinkhousesB．Feeding the FutureC．Changing the WorldD．Getting Outdoor Farming Smart解析：選B　標(biāo)題歸納題。通讀全文，尤其根據(jù)第一段第二、三句可知，將土地變成農(nóng)田會使森林消失，導(dǎo)致氣候變化惡化，但是人類需要種植更多的食物來供養(yǎng)日益增長的全球人口。因此，全文講述了促進農(nóng)業(yè)生產(chǎn)的兩個措施：第一個為“粉房子”種植模式，第二個是農(nóng)民采取更智能的種植模式。這兩個措施的目的是保障未來糧食的供給，故選B項。 BErik Kobayashi-Solomon spent a day with Dr Paul Gauthier, a plant physiologist specializing in vertical farming research and came up with several important ideas about vertical farming.Humans have 12,000 years of experience growing food, but only a generation's or so worth of experience growing crops indoors. We are still progressing up the technology learning curve (學(xué)習(xí)曲線). What's more, traditional farming techniques are based on conditions that are not applicable to vertical farming. Therefore, without taking time to understand the science, vertical farming is not likely to be able to live up to its implied promises.The cost of powering LED grow lights is one of the biggest problems a vertical farm must overcome. Dr Louis Albright at Cornell University has characterized vertical farms as “pie-in-the-sky” businesses. He famously calculates, for instance, that the cost of a loaf of bread would be D|S24 if farmed indoors — the cost is too high. Gauthier acknowledges that energy prices are high but points out that scientific work has shown that only about 6% of available sunlight is used in crop photosynthesis (光合作用), so there may be ways of growing the same plants with less light.Gauthier also points out that while energy costs are a bit high, vertical farming does create high efficiencies in other areas. Water usage may be significantly reduced because the same water can be recycled time and again. Fertilizer use can be greatly reduced and pesticides for pest control are unnecessary. It's clear that vertical farming offers real value to society.The future is probably mixed. In some environments — the Middle East, for instance — a move to vertical farming is a no-brainer. An indoor farm in Saudi Arabia, for instance, can use solar energy to power LEDs at low cost without shading out other farmland. In other geography, though, the expense of establishing a facility places a high bar to growth and profitability. A large vertical farming and equipment operation only started generating a small profit eight years into its nine-year life.語篇解讀：本文是一篇說明文。文章介紹了垂直農(nóng)場的相關(guān)信息以及有關(guān)垂直農(nóng)場應(yīng)用價值的不同看法。5．What can we infer about vertical farming in Paragraph 2?A．It will replace traditional farming one day.B．It relies on research of more basic science.C．It can be applicable to different conditions.D．It actually came into being 12,000 years ago.解析：選B　推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段中的“What's more, traditional farming ... its implied promises.”可知，垂直農(nóng)業(yè)依賴于更多基礎(chǔ)科學(xué)的研究。故選B項。6．What does Dr Albright think of vertical farms?A．They use less light than traditional ones.B．They may seem very unlikely to succeed.C．They can overcome many problems in farming.D．They do not need any natural sunlight any longer.解析：選B　推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段前兩句可知，為LED植物生長燈供電的成本是垂直農(nóng)場必須克服的最大問題之一。康奈爾大學(xué)的路易斯·奧爾布賴特博士將垂直農(nóng)場描述為“空中樓閣”的生意。由此可知，奧爾布賴特博士認(rèn)為垂直農(nóng)業(yè)似乎不太可能成功。故選B項。7．What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?A．The ways of reducing costs of vertical farming.B．The secrets of developing vertical farming.C．The recent trend of vertical farming.D．The benefits of vertical farming.解析：選D　段落大意題。根據(jù)第四段最后一句可知，這一段講述了垂直農(nóng)業(yè)的好處。故選D項。8．Why is the example of “an indoor farm in Saudi Arabia” mentioned in the last paragraph?A．To show vertical farming can work well in some places.B．To prove solar energy is vital for farming in Saudi Arabia.C．To confirm the expense of setting up a vertical farm is high.D．To argue vegetables do not need to be imported any longer.解析：選A　推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段中的“An indoor farm ... growth and profitability.”可知，文中提到這一實例是為了說明垂直農(nóng)業(yè)系統(tǒng)在某些地方可以很好地運作。故選A項。Ⅱ.閱讀七選五　　Including children in the farming lifestyle has many benefits.Sure, it is nice to have the additional help with chores (家庭雜務(wù)), but it also fosters so much growth, sending our kids down a good path towards who they will someday become.It is possible that our children will grow up to lead lives that do not include farming.__9__Through caring for farm animals, kids learn that in life others often come before self.__10__ It doesn't matter if we don't feel like it or if we are sick and tired.What matters is that we take care of the animals that take care of us and do so in a timely manner.__11__ If the work on a farm does not get done, the operation fails.It takes discipline and commitment to get down to business every day, and seeing this in action will give kids a good work attitude.They will know and understand that nothing good comes easy and that they have to work to survive.__12__ Functioning as part of a productive team will surely be playing a crucial role sooner or later in all walks of life.Additionally, farming teaches patience.__13__ Cattle will be difficult to control.Horses will run away when you try to catch them.Goats will kick over that bucket of hard-earned milk.A rooster will decide you got too close to his hens and give you a run for your money.In spite of all that, kids will learn to be patient and take things easy.There may not be any instant reward, but in the long-term kids will see the benefit of all their efforts during those hard days.A．At the same time, they learn to work with others.B．Farm life also teaches kids the value of hard work.C．Children learn to be grateful for animals for eating purpose.D．Teamwork is no longer an important skill to develop and use.E．There are going to be a lot of days when things do not go your way.F．However, what they learn on a farm can also be instrumental in their future lives.G．Animals need to be fed, watered, and cared for before we get to sit down and relax.語篇解讀：本文是一篇議論文。文章主要介紹了孩子們參與農(nóng)場生活的益處。9．選F　根據(jù)本段第一句可知，讓孩子們參與到農(nóng)場生活中有很多好處；根據(jù)空格前一句可知，我們的孩子長大后可能不再需要干農(nóng)活。下文介紹了農(nóng)場生活給孩子帶來的好處。F項承上啟下，符合語境。10．選G　根據(jù)空格前一句可知，通過照顧農(nóng)場里的動物，孩子們了解到：在生活中，別人往往比自己重要。G項與上文緊密銜接，符合語境。11．選B　根據(jù)空格后一句可知，如果農(nóng)場的工作沒有完成，活動就是失敗的。B項能夠引出下文，符合語境。12．選A　根據(jù)空格后一句可知，作為一個高效運轉(zhuǎn)的團隊的一部分，遲早會在各行各業(yè)中發(fā)揮重要作用。A項與下文緊密銜接，符合語境。13．選E　空格后列舉了幾個在農(nóng)場勞作時可能會遇到的麻煩。E項能夠引出下文，符合語境。 Ⅲ.完形填空Farming and GardeningAround 540 AD, Jia Sixie wrote a book called Qimin Yaoshu.
