语篇解读:
本文是一篇说明文。
本文主要讲述了研究者GertjanMeeuws和他的几位同事所研究的一种未来农业模式:
不需要阳光和雨水的室内农业,它不同于温室农业,是一种节能、节水和环保的农业模式,具有适应性强、成本低等特色。
1.WhatcanwemainlylearnfromParagraph2?
A.Theclimateisworseandworse.
B.Thecitypeopleliveahardlife.
C.Theworldhasdifficultyfeedingitspeople.
D.Theworld'spopulationisincreasingfast.

细节理解题。
本段主要列举了世界在满足人类食品需求方面的问题,如城市人口挨饿问题、物价上涨和不稳定问题以及人口增长所带来的问题等。

答案:
C

A.Thetemperatureisoftenchanged.
B.Sunshineisingreatneedforplants.
C.Dayandnightdependsonplants.
D.Airqualityiscontrolledbyplants.
解析:
细节理解题。
文章第四段中的thetemperatureiskeptconstant表明这个温度不会经常变化,故A不对;文章最后一段中的sunlightisnotonlyunnecessary表明这儿是不需要阳光的,故B不对;文章第一段controlledlight...airqualityandnutrition表明这儿的空气质量是需要控制的,但不一定是依靠植物,故D不对;文章第四段的最后一句可知,这儿的日夜是由植物所“决定”的。
故答案选C。
答案:
C
3.ItcanbeinferredfromthetextthatGertjanMeeuws'sfarming________.
A.helpssaveseawateralot

根据文章最后两段,Meeuws的农业模式能够节省大量的水(但不是海水),其工作原理并不同于温室农业,不利于生产占据大面积的作物,如corn和potatoes;根据文章第一段的ItcouldbeinaNewYorkhighriseorasprawlingcomplexintheSaudidesert.可知,该种农业可以在许多环境下存在,适应性是很强的。
故答案选B。
答案:
B
