‎2020届一轮复习人教版选修八 Unit 1 单元作业 Ⅰ.阅读理解 ‎(2019·广东省百校联盟第二次联考)Many people wrongly think that cities don't have farms and that fruits and vegetables are only grown in the country. Believe it or not, there are more and more urban farms popping up in cities all over the world.‎ Alexandra Sullivan, a food system researcher in New York City, studies urban agriculture. Urban agriculture is another name for farming and gardening in a city environment. Ms. Sullivan studies everything from tiny gardens in empty lots between buildings to bigger fields that have been planted and grown. According to Ms. Sullivan, “Urban agriculture has existed since cities have, across the world.”‎ The number of humans living in urban areas, or cities, is increasing. The amount of people who want to garden in urban areas is also rising. Ms. Sullivan says, “In small gardens, on rooftops and indoors, they grow fruits, vegetables, grains, and herbs, and raise animals to produce milk, eggs, honey, and meat. They use these foods as supplements to food produced by rural agriculture.” Even though some people who live in urban areas grow crops, urban residents still need to rely on food grown in rural areas. This is because a city doesn't have enough space to grow enough food for everyone living in it.‎ In New York City, urban farmers have come up with many different ways to grow their own produce, even though there isn't a lot of room. For example, Brooklyn Grange is a farming operation that has two rooftop vegetable farms in New York City. All together, the farms are made up of 2.5 acres of rooftop space. This makes Brooklyn Grange one of the largest rooftop farming operations in the world.‎ Brooklyn Grange grows all kinds of things. The farming company sells its vegetables to local residents and restaurants. And because the farms are on rooftops, they are specially adapted to their urban location. They use available space that is not needed for anything else. As more urban farmers find ways to grow food in cities, urban residents will be better able to get fresher materials for their meals.‎ 语篇解读：许多人认为城市里没有农场，水果和蔬菜仅生长在农村。实际上，越来越多的都市农场在世界各地的城市里流行起来。‎ ‎1．Which of the following is Ms. Sullivan's opinion according to the text?‎ A．The number of people living in cities is increasing slowly.‎ B．Urban residents still rely on food grown in rural areas completely.‎ C．Urban agriculture has a history as long as cities.‎ D．Urban agriculture can provide huge income.‎ 解析：选C　细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句“According to Ms. Sullivan, ‘Urban agriculture has existed since cities have, across the world.’”可知，Sullivan女士认为都市农业拥有与城市一样长的历史，故选C。‎ ‎2．What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 3 refer to?‎ A．Farmers.　　　　　　　　 B．City residents.‎ C．Rural residents. D．Companies.‎ 解析：选B　代词指代题。根据第三段前两句可知，住在城市里的人的数量在增长，想要在城市里从事园艺的人的数量也在增长，并结合该段Sullivan所说的话可推断they指的是“城市居民”，故选B。‎ ‎3．What can we learn about Brooklyn Grange in New York City ‎ from the text?‎ A．It has large farming areas.‎ B．It can only grow single products.‎ C．It produces enough food for citizens.‎ D．It makes use of rooftop space to grow vegetables.‎ 解析：选D　细节理解题。根据第四段第二句“For example, Brooklyn Grange is a farming operation that has two rooftop vegetable farms in New York City.”可知，Brooklyn Grange利用屋顶上的空间种植蔬菜，故选D。‎ ‎4．What may be the best title for the text?‎ A．Farms in Cities B．Future Food System C．Food Grown in Cities D．Agriculture of New York City 解析：选A　标题归纳题。纵观全文可知，文章主要讲述城市里的都市农场，城市居民利用有限的空间，充分利用屋顶，花园和室内种植蔬菜、水果、谷物和药草，并饲养动物。文章就是围绕城市农场这一中心展开的，因此A项作为标题最合适。‎ Ⅱ.完形填空 On June 23, 1970, I had just left the Army after completing my oneyear duty in Vietnam.
