6、ors.We are still progressing up the technology learning curve (曲线).Whats more,traditional farming techniques are based on conditions that are not applicable to vertical farming.Therefore,without taking time to understand the science,vertical farming is not likely to be able to live up to its implied

7、 promise.The cost of powering LED grow lights is one of the biggest problems a vertical farm must overcome.Dr.Louis Albright at Cornell has characterized vertical farms as the “pie-in-the-sky” business.He famously calculates,for instance,that the cost of a loaf of bread would be $24 if farmed indoor

8、sthe cost is too high.Gauthier acknowledges that energy prices are high but points out that scientific work has shown that only about 6% of available sunlight is used in crop photosynthesis (光合作用),so there may be ways of growing the same plants with less light.Gauthier also points out that while ene

9、rgy costs are a bit high,vertical farming does create enormous efficiencies in other areas.Water usage may be significantly reduced because the same water can be recycled time and again.Fertilizer use can be greatly reduced and pesticides for pest control are unnecessary.Its clear that vertical farm

10、ing offers real value to society.The future is probably mixed.In some environmentsthe Middle East,for instancea move to vertical farming is a no-brainer.An indoor farm in Saudi Arabia,for instance,can use solar energy to power LEDs at low cost without shading other farmland.In other environments,tho

15、mported any longer.参考答案：1.B推理判断题。根据第二段第四句“Therefore,without taking time to understand the science,vertical farming is not likely to be able to live up to its implied promise.”可知,如果不花时间去了解科学,垂直农业就不可能实现其潜在的前景。由此可推知,垂直农业的发展依赖更多的基础科学的研究,故选B项。2.B细节理解题。根据第三段第二句“Dr.Louis Albright at Cornell has characteriz

16、ed vertical farms as the pie-in-the-sky business.”及下文列举的他预测使用垂直农业生产会使一条面包过贵可知,Dr.Louis Albright认为垂直农业似乎不太可能成功。故选B项。3.D段落大意题。根据第四段第一句中的“vertical farming does create enormous efficiencies in other areas”及本段最后一句“Its clear that vertical farming offers real value to society.”可知,垂直农业确实在其他领域创造了提高功效的方法,为社会提
