a combination of farming methods may help.researchers wonder how to increase production without necessarily clearing more land to grow additional crops.american researchers say that can happen with greater use of an agricultural system called perenniation.it mixes food crops with trees and perennial plantsthose that return year after year.soil scientist john reganold says，“one of the major problems is that the soils are fairly poor in most of the regions.so how do you grow food on poor soils？there have to be food production systems that can build the soil and improve the yield.”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.”语篇导读：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。1.the purpose of the passage is to_.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答案：b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。2.what does the underlined word“weathering”in paragraph 4 most probably mean？abeing exposed to wind and rain.bgrowing different crops.cbeing polluted severely.dbeing ploughed improperly.答案：a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。3.according to the passage，which of the following statements is wrong？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.答案：d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。4.why does john reganold mention rhoda mangyana？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.答案：c解析：推理判断题。根据文章最后两段可知，john reganold提到rhoda mangyana是为了证明这种种植方式是有效果的。.完形填空(2014福建卷)he taught us that it is never too late to start something new.from my second grade on，there was one event i feared every year：the piano recital (独奏会)a
