researchers say a bination 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.”語篇導讀：在非洲，土地有限、地力貧瘠。如何有效地改善土地狀況，提高農作物產量呢？本文介紹了一種能有效提高土地的肥力，促進生產的耕作方式。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：寫作意圖題。由文章第一段及第二段第二句話可知，本文主要針對非洲土地營養(yǎng)成分不足、產量低這一問題，向我們介紹了一種新的農業(yè)系統(tǒng)。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：詞義猜測題。分析畫線詞所在句可知，多年的風雨侵蝕，導致了土地中的營養(yǎng)大量流失。C項文中未提及，B、D兩項不符合句意，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：細節(jié)理解題。由文章第六段第一句以及最后一句可知，這種系統(tǒng)早已經在非洲使用，所以這種系統(tǒng)并不是美國研究人員最先發(fā)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：推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章最后兩段可知，John Reganold提到Rhoda Mangyana是為了證明這種種植方式是有效果的。.完形填空(xx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

Dfrequently答案：C解析：聯(lián)系前文的“我”為父親自豪，以及空格前的Yeah可知，“我”兒子也在表揚“我”父親彈奏得好(nicely)。casually偶然地，無意地；anxiously焦急地，擔憂地；frequently經常地，頻繁地。.語法填空Mike：Im sure youve noticed many_1_(differ)between our school and
