Vertical farming piles crops on top of one another in a climate controlled, indoor facility, and uses advanced technology to produce food in the most e

11、nvironmentally friendly way the world has ever seen.At AeroFarms in Newark, New Jersey, crops are piled more than 30 feet high in a 30,000 square foot space. They use aeroponic(氣霧栽培) technology, involving misting the roots of the plants, using an astonishing 95% less water than conventional farming

12、methods. David Rosenberg, CEO of AeroFarms told Seeker, “Typically, in indoor growing, the roots sit in water. If we mist nutrition to the root structure, the roots have a better oxygenation(氧合作用).”AeroFarms uses no pesticides. The plants are grown in a reusable cloth made from recycled plastic, so

13、no soil is needed to grow them. They also use a system of specialized LED lighting instead of natural sunlight, reducing their energy footprint even further. “Many people say Sunless? Wait. Plants need sun. Actually the plants dont need yellow spectrum(光譜). So we reduce our energy footprint by doing

14、 things like reducing certain types of spectrum to make it function as sunlight,” Rosenberg said.Dickson Despommier, an ecologist from Columbia University, was one of the first advocates of vertical farming. In 1999, he proposed that vertical farming could help feed our ever-growing, overpopulated c

15、ities, while using less water than current farming methods and reducing the need to transport food long-distances. Despommier likely imagined his idea would be taking shape on a global level, just 18 years later.There are now vertical farms in Canada, Panama, Britain, and throughout America. AeroFar

16、ms is currently building another vertical farm facility in an old steel factory thats larger than a football field. They expect it will grow up to 2 million pounds of greens every year.Rosenberg believes that vertical farming is truly the way of the future. “Its a tough business, but its one thatll

17、stay with a bigger and bigger impact.”1、What is the first paragraph mainly about?AThe development of farming.BA great agricultural principle.CThe imagination of future agriculture.DA brief introduction of vertical farming.2、What is special about AeroFarms according to Rosenberg?AIt produces safe cro

18、ps.BIt plants more crops without water.CIt saves more energy and labor.DIt uses misted nutrition for a better oxygenation.3、What is the AeroFarms specialized LED lighting like?AIt is almost dark.BIt is similar to sunlight.CIt is actually natural light.DIt adds some yellow spectrum.4、What attitude do

19、es Rosenberg have to vertical farmings future?ASkeptical. BPositive.CCritical. DIndifferent.22（8分）The pursuit of longevity has long been on peoples minds, prompting an abundance of research on the effects of food and diet on the human lifespan. According to recent research from the UC Irvine Institu

20、te, drinking coffee and wine could help you live longer.The 90+ Study evaluated more than 1,600 people over the age of 90 for their lifestyle habits and other qualities that might have contributed to their longevity.Participants were visited every six months, when they were given various tests. Rese

21、archers also collected information about the participants diets, lifestyles, and medical histories.They found out that two of the habits that helped preserve lives the most are drinking alcohol and coffee. “I have no explanation for it,” admitted Dr Claudia Kawas, “but I do firmly believe that moder

22、ate (適度的) drinking improves longevity.” So should we all be drinking more coffee and wine? While that would be great news, the research may not be as definitive as it seems.“Most studies about alcohol consumption, including The 90+ Study, are observational, so we can only say that something about dr

23、inking is associated with health and longevity,” registered dietitian Jennifer Markowitz told The Daily Meal.“Id be curious to see if the coffee and alcohol drinkers shared other important habits or lifestyle factors that might also play into their longevity.”In other words, it might not be the wine

24、 and coffee thats helping people live longer, but the two substances do have some considerable health benefits. “Wine and coffee are packed with antioxidants(抗氧化劑) which are known to protect our bodies from damage caused by free radicals,” explained registered dietitian Keri Gans to The Daily Meal.

25、“Research on antioxidants has shown several heath benefits, including the possibility they may lower the risk of type 2 diabetes, improve cognitive function, decrease the risk of dementia, and lower the risk of heart disease.”Moderate drinking can be beneficial according to other studiesso long as i

26、ts moderate.1、Whats the passage mainly about?AAntioxidants having a positive effect on the lifespan.BThe effects of food and diet on the human lifespan.CAdvocating drinking wine and coffee in our daily life.DModerate drinking helping people live longer.2、The information was collected about the parti

28、 we infer from the passage?ANot all the people participating in the study are over 90.BMost studies about alcohol consumption are based on observation.COver-drinking can also be beneficial according to other studies.DAntioxidants can cure type 2 diabetes.23（8分） Against the supposition that forest fi

29、res in Alaska, Canada and Siberia warm the climate, scientists have discovered that cooling may occur in areas where burnt trees allow more snow to mirror more sunlight into space.This finding suggests that taking steps to prevent northern forest to limit the release of greenhouse gases may warm the

30、 climate in northern regions. Usually large fires destroyed forests in these areas over the past decade. Scientists predict that with climate warming, fires may occur more frequently over next several centuries as a result of a longer fire season. Sunlight taken in by the earth tends to cause warmin

31、g, while heat mirrored back into space tends to cause cooling.This is the first study to analyze all aspects of how northern fires influence climate. Earlier studies by other scientists have suggested that fire in northern regions speed up climate warming because greenhouse gases from burning trees

32、and plants are released into the atmosphere and thus trap heat.Scientists found that right after the fire, large amounts of greenhouse gases entered the atmosphere and caused warming. Ozone（臭氧）levels increased, and ash from the fire fell on far-off sea ice, darkening the surface and causing more rad

33、iation from the sun to be taken in. The following spring, however, the land within the area of the fire was brighter than before the fire, because fewer trees covered the ground. Snow on the ground mirrored more sunlight back into space, leading to cooling.“We need to find out all possible ways to r

34、educe the growth of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.” Scientists tracked the change in amount of radiation entering and leaving the climate system as a result of the fire, and found a measurement closely related to the global air temperature. Typically, fire in northern regions occurs in the same

35、 area every 80 to 150 years. Scientists, however, found that when fire occurs more frequently, more radiation is lost from the earth and cooling results. Specifically, they determined when fire returns 20 years earlier than predicated, 0.5 watts per square meter of area burned are soaked up by the e

36、arth from greenhouse gases, but 0.9 watts per square meter will be sent back into space. The net effect is cooling. Watts are used to measure the rate at which energy is gained or lost from the earth.1、According to the new findings, taking steps to prevent northern forest fires may _.Aresult in a wa

41、4（8分）Some families choose to take expensive vacations, such as to the Grand Canyon. However, my favorite family vacation was different. Nine years ago, my parents created a grand plan to build the home of their dreams in a neighborhood Honeymoon Hill. As the dream was launched smoothly, our family o

42、f five squeezed tightly into the vehicle to go there.The old home was gradually turned into the construction management office for the new one. As the new home began to take shape, it siphoned our attention and our primary home became the place where we merely slept. The three of us children worked

43、and became soon-to-be-skilled laborers. I quickly learned that personalities were readily displayed when we painted a wall. Some stuck to their claims, stopping others entering their area. Others systematically painted their wall, working from top to bottom in an organized fashion. And one drew smil

44、ey faces and signed his name there.Of course, the journey didnt come without a few lessons learned. I came to understand that paint would never be removed from a rag, however many times I washed it. We learned other important lessons when my dad attempted to shingle(蓋) a roof in the air: safety is i

45、ndeed important, and sometimes money is well spent in the hiring of a professional.A Mothers Day dinner served on a temporary table could actually taste far better at the end of a long days work than the everyday meals we remembered back at the old home. Most importantly, I learned my family can for

46、give each others barks in close quarters. This project began to matter much to each of us in our own way.When we finally completed the construction after 28 months, the resort we now call home went beyond all the other tours, and our family grew closer because of it.1、What made the authors family va

49、eed. Its part of a growing worldwide trend toward outdoor education. The schools are called Forest Kindergartens.Now the numbers are small in the U. S.，but the idea is well established in Europe, with schools in Scotland, England, and Switzerland. By far most of such schools are in Germany, which ha

50、s more than 400W aldkindergartens.Children attending such particular school enjoy a good amount of outdoor education each day,rain or shine. Some lessons are focused on nature ； others are academic topics delivered in a natural setting. In all cases，students are active not sitting at desks or on mat

51、s on the floor but walking, running, jumping, solving problems like how to get the mud off the bottoms of their shoes before their parents find out.At these forest kindergartens, students learn science by observing and doing it, learn math by applying it to the natural world around them，learn letter

52、s and words by putting them together using sights and sounds. The children learn to make comparisons using natural things like apples and rocks. They develop an appreciation for animals and plants in their natural environment not just by looking at pictures in a book or on a computer screen.Some of

53、the science activities involve teamwork, like explaining the best way to move a heavy object, showing how a lever(杠桿)works. In other sessions，teachers encourage students to develop their motor skills by building wooden tools such as hammers and knives.These students also learn how to get along with

54、one another, individually and in a group. They also develop healthy levels of self-confidence,just from being able to do the everyday activities that the school offers.In a time when so many children are being classified as obese because of long time watching television and playing video games, thes

55、e outdoor schools help children learn just as much, if not more，from opening their eyes to the world around them.1、Which of the following country has the most Forest Kindergartens?AThe U.
