Also known as salinealkali tolerant rice (耐盐碱水稻), the seawater rice is designed to grow in seaside flats or other areas with high salt content and has been developed by experts through crossbreeding (杂交) and other technologies.One type of seawater rice growing in Qingdaos Chengyang district, Shandong Province, produced 3.9 metric tons (公吨) per hectare (公顷), experts announced. Once widely planted in large areas, the output could be much higher. The Qingdao SalineAlkali Tolerant Rice Research and Development Center, led by renowned Chinese agricultural scientist Yuan Longping, was established several years ago. It set itself a threeyear target of developing a kind of saltresistant rice capable of producing 4.5 tons a hectare, which would guarantee growers the minimum acceptable level of profit. The average rice output in China is 6.75 tons a hectare.Planting in the experimental field in Chengyang district and five other plots of salinealkali land started at the end of May. The five other plots were in Dongying, Shandong Province; Wenzhou, Zhejiang Province; Yanan, Shaanxi Province; Kashgar, the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region; and Daqing, Heilongjiang Province. The sites represent actually every type of salinealkali land in China and researchers aim to grow different kinds of rice able to cope with different climate, salinity and soil structure conditions. The test crops in Kashgar and Daqing were also harvested on Wednesday. In Kashgar, the output reached more than 7.5 tons per hectare, according to experts tests, much higher than expected. The harvest in Kashgar was satisfactory. The result means it is possible to plant such saltresistant rice in southern Xinjiang in the future. Xinjiang has about 2 million hectares of salinealkali land that have the potential to be planted with saltresistant rice, and if it is widely planted it will generally improve rice production in the region.The seawater rice grown in Daqing only produced 3.1 tons per hectare. A live video on Shandong TV showed growers appearing a little disappointed by the result, as they hoped the experts efforts would increase production greatly. The water and soil conditions of the site were not ideal, and the pH level was extremely high.语篇解读：2018年7月，青岛海水稻研发中心传来喜讯，袁隆平试种的包括“海水稻”在内的80多个水稻品种分批成熟。“海水稻”研究在国内外都有很长的一段历史，袁隆平领导的海水稻项目使中国技术处于海水稻研究的前列。8Which is the main feature of seawater rice according to the text?AIt has a shorter growing period.BIt is a kind of highly productive crop.CIt can grow in the soil with high salt content.Dit is the combination of many technologies.解析：选C细节理解题。根据第一段中的“the seawater rice is designed to grow in seaside flats or other areas with high salt content”可知，海水稻最大的优势是可以种植在含盐量高的土壤里 。9How much rice does a farmer harvest at least to meet the cost?A3.9 tons a hectare. B4.5 tons a hectare.C6.75 tons a hectare. D7.5 tons a hectare.解析：选B细节理解题。根据第三段中的“which would guarantee growers the minimum acceptable level of profit”可知，每公顷4.5吨的产量对种植者来说是最低的收益保障。10The researchers chose the experimental fields according to _.Athe distance between themBthe type of the soil and climateCthe local governments supportDthe local agricultural conditions解析：选B细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句可知，研究人员选择试验田的依据是气候、土壤的盐度和土壤结构。11What can we infer about the seawater rice from the last paragraph?AThe seawater rice is not fit for all kinds of salinealkali soils.BIt is impossible for the seawater rice to have a good harvest.CGrowers from Shandong Province were a little disappointed by the result.DThe output of the seawater rice grown in Daqing is the lowest.解析：选A推理判断题。根据最后一段最后一句可知，海水稻并非适合所有的土壤。.阅读七选五Sometimes it can be difficult to relate to the generations that have come before us._1_ But older people have plenty of wisdom and knowledge to share with younger generations, and treating them with respect should be second nature for all of us.Call people sir or maam. Even if youve grown up in a more casual environment where you usually call your friends parents by their first names, you shouldnt assume that all older people are comfortable with that kind of informal title._2_ They prefer you call them Mr./Mrs. Thats why its always best to ask what name they prefer and use sir or maam when you dont feel comfortable asking._3_ While its true that many elderly people have health problems that may require special assistance, aging doesnt affect all people in the same way.Assuming that an older person has poor eyesight or hearing can be extremely embarrassing and make him or her feel selfconscious.Thats especially true if you make a big deal out of it, such as raising your voice every time you speak to him or her.If youre unsure whether an older person has such problems, just ask._4_Show interest in their lives. Its easy to think that older people dont have much going on because they dont do many of the things that they used to when they were younger._5_ When you visit or call your elderly loved ones, make sure to ask about their favorite activities.If they hav
