A
Banker Chip Paillex had never planted so much until he moved to the countryside in Pittstown, New Jersey, seven years ago.Surrounded by working farms, he quickly became interested in the grow it yourself idea and rented a piece of 30 by 30 foot land.He planted tomatoes, eggplants and other vegetables — enough to feed his family of four for the summer.He ended up with so much produce; he couldn't give it away.He found a local food factory, and donated (捐赠) 120 pounds of fresh vegetables.
The following year, with a handful of volunteers and a memorable name — America's Grow a Row, Paillex harvested 1,500 pounds of fresh vegetables, all of which he donated to area food banks, places that give food to poor people.Soon Paillex had a hundred volunteers and needed more land.He visited Meredith and Jeremy Compton, who farm Peaceful Valley Orchards in Pittstown.Could he work their land
“I guess we were feeling honored，” says Meredith.Not only do the Comptons welcome Grow a Row volunteers, they also work on the land.
What began with a few empty fields has turned into a large local farm.This year, Grow a Row will deliver about 250,000 pounds of fresh produce to food banks.Their secret for getting all of this done Family power.“Each week, a couple of families ‘own’ the garden，” says Paillex.“They water, pick, and deliver, and then hand it off on Sunday night to the next group of families.”
Paillex also welcomes local school kids.On a Friday morning in May, some kids worked on a field.“We're growing food，” one fifth grader said proudly.
“The program shows kids that there are people in need，” says Paillex.“When these kids become tomorrow's leaders, they'll be much more likely to encourage their co workers or employees to get involved in (参与) something like this.”
“Chip makes people want to help，” says Colleen Duerr, a mother of two.“And families love this.Chip has given us a way to raise our kids with a giving heart.”
1．Why did Chip start growing vegetables in Pittstown
A．There were very few fresh vegetables on the market.
B．He wanted to offer food to the local food factory.
C．Farmers there encouraged him to do so.
D．He was deeply attracted by planting.
解析：选D　细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Surrounded by working farms, he quickly became interested in the grow it yourself idea”可知，Chip受到周围环境的影响，深深地喜爱上了自己种植食物这一做法。
2．After a year's planting, Chip ________.
A．set up more food banks in the area
B．won great support from more people
C．helped save many people from being poor
D．persuaded many people to help him on the land
解析：选B　推理判断题。根据第二段中的“with a handful of volunteers”和“Soon Paillex had a hundred volunteers”以及第三段提到Compton夫妇的乐意帮忙可知，在Chip自己耕种一年后，得到了越来越多人的支持与帮助。
3．How can Grow a Row manage to produce so much food
A．School children play the most active part.
B．Families take turns to look after the garden.
C．The work is divided into separate small tasks.
D．Schools and families divide the work equally.
解析：选B　细节理解题。根据第四段中的“...Each week, a couple of families ‘own’ the garden”和“They water, pick, and deliver, and then hand it off on Sunday night to the next group of families.”可知，Grow a Row之所以可以生产出数量众多的农产品是因为各个家庭轮流负责种植。
4．What's the best title for the text
A．The Producers　　　　　　　 B．American Farms
C．Grow it Yourself D．Chip's Country Life
解析：选A　标题归纳题。银行家Chip搬到乡下后开始喜欢上了种植蔬菜，并且将吃不完的新鲜蔬菜捐给社会，他的这种慈善行为慢慢吸引了很多志愿者，使得越来越多的人投入到这项帮助他人的农业活动中。因此A项“生产者”概括了文章主旨，适合做标题。
B
An average 30 year old person who has eaten three meals a day since birth has eaten more than 30,000 meals to date.Even if you've only eaten half that much have to admit this: you've let some of that breakfast, lunch or dinner go to waste.And it turns out we're all to blame for this shaming fact: 30% of all food produced in the world each year is wasted or lost.That's about 1.3 billion tons, according to a new report by the U．N.Food and Agriculture Organization.
That's the weight of more than 8.6 million full grown blue whales, the largest creatures on earth.That's the weight of more than 2.3 million Airbus A380s, the largest planes in existence.That's as if each person in China, the world's most populous country with more than 1.3 billion people, had one ton mass of food thrown into the dustbin.It's almost unfathomable,_isn't it
Setting aside that big number, we find the people with the most money are the ones who waste the most.On average, a person in European and North American countries wastes between 95 and 115 kilograms of food.Sub Saharan African, South Asian and Southeast Asian countries waste much, much less — between 6 and 11 kilograms per person.
Here's another statistic: all the food that the world's richest countries waste is about equal to all the food that sub Saharan Africa produces.The numbers: 222 million tons and 230 million tons, respectively (分别地)．Basically, the wasted food of the rich could feed much of the African continent.And these numbers come as we've just been reporting about rising food prices around the world in the past week.
And my own personal tip: if I eat at a restaurant and can't finish it all, I ask for a doggie bag.I used to be a waiter years ago and will never forget the amounts of food I saw left on the table after the bill was paid.There's no reason to waste food.It's up to all of us to use our common sense to eat and shop just a bit more wisely.
语篇解读：本文为说明文。根据联合国粮农组织的一份报告，目前全球生产出来的30%的食物在消费过程中被浪费。
5．What does the underlined word “unfathomable” in Paragraph 2 mean
A．Possible to imagine.　　　B．Impossible to change.
C．Impossible to understand. D．Possible to understand.
解析：选C　词义猜测题。根据第二段可知，每年浪费的食物的重量超过了860万头地球上最大的动物——成年蓝鲸的重量，也超过了230万架世界上现有的最大的飞机——空中客车A380的重量。这也好比世界上拥有超过13亿人的人口最多的国家——中国，人均向垃圾桶里倾倒一吨的食物。由此可推知这种现象使人难以理解。unfathomable意为“难以理解的；深不可测的”。
6．It can be learned that the food the rich waste can support ________.
A．half the people in Europe B．most people of America
C．most people of Asia D．most people of Africa
解析：选D　细节理解题。根据第四段倒数第二句“Basically, the wasted food of the rich could feed much of the African continent.”可推知，富有的国家浪费的食物可以养活非洲大陆大部分地区的人。
7．The author gave his personal tip based on the fact that ________.
A．he was once very poor
B．he was once a farmer
C．he once worked in a restaurant
D．the price of food is very high
解析：选C　细节理解题。根据最后一段第二句“I used to be a waiter years ago and will never forget the amounts of food I saw left on the table after the bill was paid.”可知，作者的建议是根据他曾是一个餐馆服务员的工作经历而给出的。
8．What is the purpose of this article
A．To show the author's opinion of food.
B．To let us live more wisely and not waste food.
C．To show the amount of wasted food a year.
D．To ask the richest countries to help African people.
解析：选B　写作意图题。根据第一段倒数第二句“And it turns out we're all to blame for this shaming fact: 30% of all food produced in the world each year is wasted or lost.”和最后一段最后两句“There's no reason to waste food.It's up to all of us to use our common sense to eat and shop just a bit more wisely.”可推知，文章的写作目的在于让人们不要浪费食物，要更明智地生活。Section Ⅰ　Warming Up & Reading

Ⅰ.阅读理解
Three times a week, a group of farmers work together in a village of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (刚果民主共和国)．The group were planting potatoes.
Nearly 200,000 persons are driven to camps in the Democratic Republic of the Congo because of conflicts (冲突) in the east.Most people there say land problems are one of the causes of the area's conflicts.So recently, large landowners have been asked to free up more of their land to farmers interested in growing crops.
Is this a solution to the land problem An organization called FOPAC is teaching this group better farming methods like planting improved vegetables in the fields.It is also showing the farmers how to remove grass instead of burning it to change grassland to field, and to use animal waste to make plants grow more successfully.
Mumbere works for FOPAC as a farming adviser.He says the hills near the town are owned by Olive Lembe, the wife of Joseph Kabila.Kabila is the president of the Democratic Republic of the Congo.Much of the land once was farmed.Mumbere says, the person Olive Lembe bought the land from last year stopped planting crops.Now, the land is mainly grassland.Lembe is now persuading farmers to grow crops on some of her land, which she has named “Hope Farm”．
“Hope Farm” requires farmers to make payments for use of the land, and payments are very low.Mumbere says the usual rental payment in this area for one hectare (公顷) is only $200 for a season of four months.Many people rent smaller fields of about 400 m2 for $10 a season.
FOPAC tries to avoid conflicts with landowners and farmers.Mumbere says the farmers seemed happy with the new solution.
1．What was the purpose of asking large landowners to free up their land to farmers
A．To avoid conflicts.
B．To control landowners.
C．To make farmers rich.
D．To make good use of the land.
解析：选A　推理判断题。根据第二段“Most people there say land problems are one of the causes of the area's conflicts.”可知，土地纠纷是造成这个地区冲突的根本原因。由此可以推测，大地主被要求将土地租给农民耕种的原因就是为了避免冲突。
2．What did farmers use to do before they planted crops
A．Burning grass to get new fields.
B．Using animal waste to make plants grow fast.
C．Planting improved vegetables in their fields.
D．Removing grass and dead trees to protect crops.
解析：选A　细节理解题。根据第三段“It is also showing the farmers how to remove grass instead of burning it to change grassland to field”可知，这个组织向农民展示如何除草而不是靠烧草来把草场变成土地。由此可知，农民们以前可能通过烧草来获得新的土地。
3．What can we learn from the passage
A．Olive Lembe sold her land to farmers.
B．The payments of “Hope Farm” are not high.
C．The country encouraged soldiers to plant crops.
D．Olive Lembe bought the land for planting potatoes.
解析：选B　细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“‘Hope Farm’ requires farmers to make payments for use of the land, and payments are very low.”可知，“Hope Farm”要求农民支付的土地的租金不高。
4．What is the farmers' attitude towards the solution to the land problem
A．Negative.　　　　　　　 B．Positive.
C．Doubtful. D．Opposed.
解析：选B　推理判断题。根据最后一段“Mumbere says the farmers seemed happy with the new solution.”可知，农民对于租种土地这一解决土地争端的方式的态度是积极的。

Eddie Hatfield, __1__ is a father of six, said he always wanted to give back to children, and two years ago __2__ (start) collecting money from his fellow tool makers at Whirlpool Corp. to donate bikes to children for the Toys for Tots program.
After __3__ (collect) enough money to donate 15 bikes in 2015, 24 in 2016 and 36 in 2017, Hatfield said the tool makers' generosity continues to grow.
“We are hoping to collect 40 this year，” Hatfield said.“It just keeps __4__ (get) bigger and bigger.”
Bikes __5__ (buy) through the Fremont Wal mart with the help of a Wal mart grant (补助金) of $750, Hatfield said.
“There are a lot of kids out there __6__ need, and I started this because I thought when I was a kid, __7__ would have been great to get a bike，” Hatfield said.“I always hear kids say they want bicycles for Christmas, so I talked to my several __8__ (self) friends at work and we put our money together and raised $1,470.”
“It's __9__ (real) special for me, because I love kids so much and I will do whatever I can do __10__ (help) out，” Hatfield said.
1．who　考查关系代词。设空处引导非限制性定语从句，补充说明Eddie Hatfield，且在从句中作主语，故填who。
2．started　考查一般过去时。由two years ago可知，此处用一般过去时，故填started。
3．collecting　考查动词 ing形式作宾语的用法。After后应跟动词 ing形式作宾语，且Hatfield与collect之间是逻辑上的主谓关系，故填collecting。
4．getting　考查动词 ing形式作宾语的用法。keep doing sth.意为“保持做某事”。
5．were bought　考查一般过去时的被动语态。Bikes与buy之间是被动关系，且由语境可知此处用一般过去时，故填were bought。
6．in　考查介词。in need意为“需要”。
7．it　考查it的用法。设空处作形式主语，真正的主语是to get a bike，故填it。
8．selfless　考查形容词作定语的用法。由设空处后的friends可知，此处应填形容词；再根据语境可知表示“我的几个无私的朋友”，故填selfless (无私的)。
9．really　考查副词。设空处修饰形容词special，故填副词really。
10．to help　考查不定式作状语的用法。Hatfield想尽他所能来帮助孩子们，故填to help。

Genetically modified (GM) foods (转基因食品) have been around for many years. They are developed for a number of different reasons — to fight disease, resist pests, improve nutrition, survive drought — and are mainly found in our food supply in processed foods using corn, soybeans and as feed for farm animals. Are they safe How do they affect the environment Can they improve food security Is the world better off with or without GM foods
Supporters of GM foods say that farmers who grow these crops are able to use fewer environmentally damaging farm chemicals. The increased output is important to feeding the world's growing population. And many studies have shown that GM foods are safe to eat and that there's no actual evidence of any health risks. They also add that the foods have been thoroughly examined and have gained approval for eating from a wide variety of government and scientific bodies.
Critics, however, are concerned that these foods have not been strictly tested and are potentially dangerous for both the environment and people's health. They say farmers growing GM crops have actually increased their use of farm chemicals. And the widespread use of the crops, they say, has also led to an increase in weeds and insects that have resistance to farm chemicals. And, they argue, there is still no scientific evidence of the long term safety of these foods.
Four scientists recently took on those questions in a debate, facing off two against two on GM foods. In these Oxford style debates, the team that gets the most people on its side by the end is the winner.
Before the debate, the audience at the Kaufman Music Center in New York voted 32 percent in favor of GM foods, with 30 percent against and 38 percent undecided. Afterward, 60 percent agreed with GM foods, and 31 percent disagreed — making the side arguing in favor of GM foods the winners of this debate.

In an attempt to handle the nation's food wastage problem, Denmark has opened the world's very first supermarket — WeFood, which sells products that are damaged or soon expired.Ever since the grand opening in Copenhagen last Monday, people have been lining up outside WeFood for a chance to purchase discounted items that would otherwise have ended up in the rubbish bin because of damaged packaging or very short use by date.The items at WeFood are priced at least 30 to 50 percent lower than at regular stores.
“WeFood is the first supermarket of its kind in Denmark and perhaps the world, as it is not just aimed at low income shoppers but anyone who is concerned about the amount of food wastage produced in the country.” said project head Per Bjerre.“Many people see this as a positive and politically correct way to deal with the problem.”
While Denmark alone is expected to waste about 700,000 tons of food every year, the United Nations has stated that globally, food wastage amounts to 1.3 billion tons.These are shocking figures, considering the fact that about 795 million people in the world are still starving.Denmark, however, has adopted several measures to clean up its act, wasting 25% less food than it did five years ago.One such active move is founding the Food Bank, a local nonprofit that distributes extra food to homeless shelters.
The WeFood project is a cooperation between the Food Bank and a religious charity (慈善机构) Dan Church Aid.The WeFood and other similar projects have raised nearly $150,000 over the past year.The store is now run mainly by volunteers.Profits are used to support Dan Church Aid's other projects in developing nations like South Sudan.
Provided WeFood remains popular in the long term and if it is able to keep up its food deliveries, Dan Church Aid plans to open more branches across Denmark.

“The program tries to bring something new by presenting more cultural elements related to dishes, like habits of eating.”__8__ Every part focuses on different people, who tell stories about their adventures with food.
“As a saying goes, ‘you are what you eat’，” Chen says. “__9__ Behind the documentary, they are stories that reflect people's living situations and attitudes. That's another section which makes it special.”
__10__
To get enough good stories, the production team spent three months doing researches and interviews in about 60 cities before they started shooting in July. It nearly involves over 40 minorities. Filming lasted about nine months.
A Bite of China shows social changes while presenting food culture, such as showing the elderly are in their hometowns while other members of this family work outside. In those cases, food serves as reminders of happy times and centerpieces of reunions.

Ⅱ.语法填空
Think fast: How close do you live to your local grocery store Most of us don't know. As long as it's close to home, it's not a problem.

For the past decade, Americans have driven __3__ average of 6 miles between home and their closest grocery store. For rural Americans, __4__ (especial) those in the South, the trip can be much __5__ (long) — for example, in the food landscape of the Lower Mississippi Delta, you'll likely find one supermarket __6__ (serve) a 190.5 square mile area.

The term dates back at least a decade __9__ it was used to describe how urban supermarkets in the United Kingdom were receding (退去) into the suburbs. But since the imbalance of food __10__ (choose) isn't limited to one region of the world, the expression is now used to describe the occurrence around the globe, including areas of North America, Latin America, Asia and Australia.
1．without　考查介词。根据语境可知，此处指没有交通工具便很难到达杂货店，故填without。
2．becomes/will become　考查时态和主谓一致。本文的基本时态为一般现在时，此处也应用一般现在时；又因动词 ing形式作主语，谓语动词使用单数。此外，这里也可理解为将来的一种情况，从句用一般现在时表将来，主句用一般将来时。
3．an　考查冠词。过去十年里，美国人平均开6英里的车程以往返于家和最近的杂货店。an average of“平均”。
4．especially　考查副词。此处指特别是住在南方的美国乡下人，especially“特别，尤其”。
5．longer　考查形容词比较级。根据上下文语境及空前的“much”可知，此处指美国乡下人，特别是住在南方的美国乡下人去购物的旅途更远，故使用比较级。
6．serving　考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知，find为谓语动词，one supermarket与serve之间是逻辑上的主谓关系，故此处应用动词 ing形式作后置定语。
7．to drive　考查非谓语动词。动词expect后接不定式作宾语。expect to do sth.“期待做某事”。
8．is called　考查时态和语态。这种现象被称为食物沙漠。本文的基本时态为一般现在时，故用一般现在时；又因This phenomenon与call之间是被动关系，故使用被动语态。
9．when　考查定语从句。a decade为先行词，表示时间，后面是定语从句，句中缺少时间状语，故填when。
10．choice(s)　考查名词。食物选择的不均衡性并不局限在世界某个区域。空前有名词作定语，空处作介词of的宾语，故空处应用名词形式。choice“选择”既可作可数名词，又可作不可数名词，故填choice(s)。
