I am convinced that Yuan Longping，known as the“Father of Hybrid Rice”，is one of the
most influential figures in China’s agricultural development.
He devoted his entire life to developing high-yield rice varieties ， which have greatly
increased China’s food production and helped alleviate hunger in many developing countries.He
was a person of high perseverance and determination.Faced with the shortage of research funds and
advanced research equipment，he didn’t give up but spared no effort to overcome them one byone.Without his efforts，many people in the world might still stay in hunger.
Given that he had achieved what he wanted，many people might think he would have retired
to a life of leisure，but he didn’t.He kept on dreaming up and developing strains with higher
yields even in his later years，which serves as an inspiration to us all.

company and share in the recovery.“We were just walking at the beginning，” he says.“And I
was heavy.I weighed over 90kg.” But as the weeks and months passed，the weight fell away，
Susan recovered—and Campbell’s abilities grew.At the age of 63，he ran 50km，and at 70，he
ran through the night to complete a 100km ultramarathon.
So how does someone with no sporting precedent (先例) become an ultra-distance runner in
his 60s and 70s? Susan had run marathons before her injury.But for Campbell，the turning point
came when Susan’s Fleet Feet running group took to the trails in the Sierra Nevada foothills near
their home in Citrus Heights，California.
Campbell went out to visit Susan’s group，and “the trails were a terrible mess.It had been
raining.And I was running in my road shoes.Slipping and sliding and falling.And I was struggling.I
thought，well，I like this a lot but I could do better.”
What he liked above all was the feeling of “being enveloped by the trail，being embraced
by the closeness of the vegetation and the nearness of the river.I was walking where Native people
had walked for thousands of years and where miners had walked on their way to gold.”
Running the 100km ultramarathon took Campbell 16 hours.When Campbell crossed the finish
line at 3 am，Susan handed him a 100km sticker to display on the back of his truck.He already had
a 50km one on there.“It is a public declaration that you are part of this community，” he
says.“Wherever we park，I see a line of vehicles with their various stickers and I feel that we are
a tribe (大家庭)．”
Campbell suffered arthritis(关节炎) before he started running，and is “a candidate for knee
replacement”．But for now，he is holding off on surgery.It could put an end to the running—but
the “sense of wellbeing and accomplishment will carry me on forever”，he says.“If I can’t
run，I will walk.”

C★
Singapore cannot afford to have large plots of land dedicated to growing crops—it is just too
small.However，farming，or more precisely，urban farming，is now a buzz(流行的)wordhere.Instead of looking at the grounds，Singapore has decided to look skyward，towards rooftops!
In 2020，Singapore announced plans to convert the roofs of nine multi-storey car parks in
public housing areas into spaces for commercially farmed vegetables and other crops.This is part of
Singapore’s strategy to meet the country’s 30 by 30 goal，which is to produce 30% of its
nutritional needs locally by 2030 up from 10% in 2020.
Several companies have taken on the task of cultivating the urban farming scene in
Singapore.Citiponics has made a name for itself，building water-efficient organic “growing
towers” that can be used to grow anything from butterhead lettuce to sweet basil.Edible Garden
City (EGC) has more than 200 farms across the island and works closely with restaurants to ensure
sustainable supply and demand.
Singapore is not alone in its efforts to go beyond the confines of conventional agriculture.All
over the world，cities are seeking to feed their communities with local produce.At Thammasat
University located just outside of Bangkok，a formerly disused rooftop has been transformed into
a 7,000-square-meter space for organic farming，the largest in Asia.
Urban farming is not restricted to eatable plants such as leafy greens and vegetables.Rooftop
Honey，which has over 130 hives throughout various locations in Greater Melbourne specializes
in bees.The urban beekeeping operation，founded in 2010，serves two purposes：producing
creamy and delicious honey for the city’s residents while also allowing the bees to pollinate(授
粉) flowers in the surrounding areas.
There are several benefits to have the farms so close to home.Through community gardens or
access to commercial-scale farm produce，the public have an opportunity to understand how food
is grown.As the produce is pesticide-free，there is also comfort in knowing where the food comes
from and its impact on the environment.
8．Why is the limited land resource in Singapore mentioned in paragraph 1?
A．To explain benefits of urban farming.
B．To show the function of urban farming.
C．To introduce the result of urban farming.
D．To emphasize the necessity of urban farming.
答案 D
解析 推理判断题。根据第一段中“However，farming，or more precisely，urban farming，
is now a buzz(流行的) word here.Instead of looking at the grounds，Singapore has decided to look
skyward，towards rooftops！”可推断，提到新加坡有限的土地资源是为了强调城市农业的
必要性。故选D。
9．What does the underlined word “confines” in paragraph 4 probably mean?
A．Strengths. B．Restrictions.
C．Principles. D．Profits.答案 B
解析 词义猜测题。根据画线词下文“All over the world，cities are seeking to feed their
communities with local produce.”可知，世界其他地区也在寻求城市农业空间，因此推断新
加坡并不是唯一一个努力超越传统农业局限的国家。画线词 confines与B项“限制”意思相
近。故选B。
10．What can we learn about urban farming from the text?
A．It simply means growing vegetables and fruits.
B．It is a solution to farming where land is lacking.
C．It helps to increase the crop production greatly.
D．It has never been commercialized in Singapore.
答案 B
解析 推理判断题。根据第一段的“Singapore cannot afford to have large plots of land
dedicated to growing crops—it is just too small.However...Instead of looking at the grounds，
Singapore has decided to look skyward，towards rooftops！”和最后一段的“There are several
benefits to have the farms so close to home.”可推知，城市农业对于解决土地缺乏是个解决办
法。故选B。
11．Which can be a suitable title for the text?
A．A New Plan Launched in Singapore
B．Singapore，the Birthplace of Urban Farming
C．Urban Farming，a Novel Pattern of Farming
D．Strengths and Weaknesses of Urban Farming
答案 C
解析 标题归纳题。根据第一段的“Instead of looking at the grounds，Singapore has decided
to look skyward，towards rooftops! ”和第三段的“Several companies have taken on the task of
cultivating the urban farming scene in Singapore.”以及全文内容可知，本文以新加坡的城市农
业为例，介绍了一种新型的农业模式——城市农业，并分析了其好处。因此推断C项“城
市农业：一种新型的农业模式”为最佳标题。故选C。
Ⅱ.七选五
(2024·福建福州期中联考)
You’ve probably heard of a hybrid(杂交物种)in films or books.The centaurs in the Harry
Potter films are hybrids of human and horse. 1
Hybridization occurs in both plants and animals. 2 What’s more，many plants that
people eat，from strawberries to carrots，corn and potatoes，have been created by hybridization.
Cross-breeding(杂交) sometimes occurs when animals’ normal territory overlaps(部分重
叠)． 3 The grolar bear is a hybrid that happens when grizzly and polar bears mate.As theenvironment warms，grizzlies in Alaska and Canada wander further north，bringing them into
contact with polar bears.
Artificial mixing often happens in zoos，where different species that don’t normally meet in
the wild can be introduced to each other.Ligers(lion and tiger hybrids) are unlikely to occur in
nature，because the only place that their habitats overlap is the Gir Forest in India. 4 Mixed
species are more likely to be born with health issues than other animals.Most hybrids born in zoos
are infertile，which means they are unable to have babies.However，many cross-breeds born in
the wild，like the grolar bear，can have their own babies.
5 “It’s part of the evolutionary process，” he says.Fertile hybrids can lead to the
creation of a new species and increase the variety of living things.
A．Wildlife conservation is of significance.
B．Did you know hybridization is a biological process?
C．That’s due to habitat destruction or changing climate.
D．Did you know that hybrids appear in the natural world，too?
E．Jimmy believes species hybridization in nature is a good thing.
F．Many conservationists think that creating hybrids is a bad thing.
G．Living things，especially plants，will naturally hybridize in the wild.
1．答案 D
解析 根据上文“《哈利·波特》系列电影中的半人马是人和马的杂交物种”以及下文“杂
交在动植物界都会发生”可知，空处起着承上启下的作用，D项(你知道自然世界里也有杂
交物种吗？)符合语境。故选D。
2．答案 G
解析 下文提到许多植物都是通过杂交培育出来的，可知本段主要谈论植物的杂交，G项
(生物，尤其是植物，会在野外自然杂交)中“especially plants”与下文有对应关系，符合语
境。故选G。
3．答案 C
解析 根据上文“杂交有时发生在动物的领地重叠的时候”以及下文说到北极灰熊是杂交后
代并指出气候变暖可知，C项(这是由于栖息地破坏或气候变化)中“That’s due to”指代上
文“Cross-breeding(杂交)sometimes occurs”的发生条件，并引出下文举例说明发生领地重叠
的原因，符合语境。故选C。
4．答案 F
解析 下文指出，混合物种出生时有可能带有健康问题，可推断此处是对杂交的消极看法，
可知F项(许多环保主义者认为创造杂交物种是一件坏事)中“a bad thing”与下文“health
issues”有对应关系，符合语境。故选F。5．答案 E
解析 下文提到有繁殖能力的杂交物种可以导致新物种的产生，并增加生物的种类，结合
“he says”可知，此处是一个人对杂交的积极态度和看法，E项(吉米相信自然界中的物种
杂交是一件好事)中“a good thing”与下文的“lead to the creation”以及“increase the
variety”形成对应关系，符合语境。故选E。
