There have to be food production systems that can build the soil and improve the field.”Mr.Reganold says poor soil may have resulted from years of weathering that washed away many nutrients.He says some farmers may have done more harm than good.“They have been actually using farming practices where theyre not putting in organic matter.Theyre not putting in fertilizers.They cant afford those things.And it just runs the soil down.So theyre worsening the situation.”The scientist says the word perenniation defines three systems that are already used in Africa.The oldest of the three is called evergreen agriculture.This is where farmers plant trees with their crops.Farmers in Africa have been doing this for sixty years, but it seems to be growing in popularity.The method is gaining widespread use in countries such as Niger, Burkina Faso, Malawi and Zambia.The trees are planted among maize (玉米), millet or sorghum crops.They not only add nitrogen (氮) to the soil through their roots, but also through their leaves when they fall off and break down.At other times of the year, the trees can protect plants from strong sunlight.John Reganold says he knows of one woman who has had great success with perenniation.“Shes a grandmother in her fifties.Her name is Rhoda Mangyana and she started using this system about twenty years ago.And her yields initially were about a ton of maize.Now with a good year she gets four tons per hectare, four times what she was getting.”文章大意：在非洲，土地有限、地力贫瘠。如何有效地改善土地状况，提高农作物产量呢？本文介绍了一种能有效提高土地的肥力，促进生产的耕作方式。1The purpose of the passage is to_B_.Atell people how to increase productionBintroduce an agricultural system in AfricaCintroduce the oldest farming method in AfricaDtell us how to prevent soil from being poor解析：写作意图题。 由文章第一段及第二段第二句话可知，本文主要针对非洲土地营养成分不足、产量低这一问题，向我们介绍了一种新的农业系统。2What does the underlined word “weathering” in Paragraph 4 most probably mean？_A_ABeing exposed to wind and rain.BGrowing different crops.CBeing polluted severely.DBeing ploughed improperly.解析：词义猜测题。分析画线词所在句可知，多年的风雨侵蚀，导致了土地中的营养大.量流失。C 项文中未提及，B、D 两项不符合句意，可排除。3According to the passage, which of the following statements is WRONG？_D_APerenniation mixes food crops with trees and perennial plants.BPoor soil is the main problem in increasing food production.CFarmers may be more to blame for the present situation.DAmerican researchers first invented perenniation.解析：细节理解题。 由文章第六段第一句以及最后一句可知，这种系统早已经在非洲使用，所以这种系统并不是美国研究人员最先发明的。4Why does John Reganold mention Rhoda Mangyana？_C_ATo show the method is very popular in Africa.BBecause she is an expert at farming production.CTo prove the farming method is effective.DBecause she produced more grains than anyone else in the country.解析：推理判断题。根据文章最后两段可知，John Reganold 提到

eitheror decision.Rather, the decision _3.to_consume_(consume) organic food or not is dependent on the economic, educational and social circumstances of the consumer.According to many researchers,

food.That is，some consumers choose not to be organic because_8.they_ prefer sticking with their old .habits.To them, one reason not to go organic is that organic food differs from the food they are used to.For some, organic food tastes different _9.compared_(compare) with the food they normally consume.And as organic products generally dont use preservatives(防腐剂), they are _10.easier_(easy) to go bad.Consumers who choose not to go organic therefore feel organic food doesnt bring them any benefits.文章大意：随着人们的收入水平和生活质量的不断提高，越来越多的人开始关注以无公害、绿色、有机为标志的高端农产品，有机食品无论对环境还是健康来说都有益处。1命题立意：考查介词。解析：reason

some consumers，在句中作主语，故应该用人称代词 they 来指代。故填 they。9命题立意：考查非谓语动词。解析：逻辑主语 organic food 与 compare 之间为被动关系，故应该用过去分词作比较状语。故填 compared。.10命题立意：考查形容词。解析：根据上下文句意，此处表示“(与那些非有机食品相比)更容易变质” ，表示比较意义，故应该用 easy 的比较级
