If current farming practices dont change, we will need an area of new land to produce enough food for the planet.Vertical farms, where urban far

In spite of concerns over high costs, experts want to make it a reality and use these skyscrapers to grow crops.Vertical farms would have many advantages, supporters say. Unlike traditional farming, vertical farmin

Finally, vertical farms would reduce the cost and negative effects of transporting food over long distances.Some argue that although crops growing in a tall glass building would get natural sunlig

For this reason, vertical farms would need additional light sources(来源), such as artificial light.Another way of growing fresh food is to build urban farms on rooftops.

39、动的具体时间、具体内容，另外还介绍了订票和取消订购的具体要求等。1B解析：细节理解题。文章第一段最后两句介绍了对游客的年龄、身体情况等方面的具体要求。故选B项。2D解析：细节理解题。根据16：30 Meet the Team部分中的“Learn about our animal adoption plan”可知，在这个时段可以了解动物收养计划。故选D项。3C解析：细节理解题。根据Booking and cancellation部分中的“Cancellations must be made more than fourteen days before the event.”可知，取消订购的时间应

40、该至少在活动的前两周。故选C项。【解题导语】本文主要讲述了一只小蓝企鹅在人们的帮助下最终得救的故事。4B解析：推理判断题。根据第二段的内容，尤其是“Please leave me alone. Keep your dog away.”可知，当时有人在那只小蓝企鹅旁边竖了一个牌子警示人们不要打扰它，不要让狗靠近它。由此可推知，对于那只小蓝企鹅来讲，这个世界是可怕的，因为它面临着一些潜在的危险。故B项正确。5C解析：推理判断题。根据第四段中的“The chick weighs a mere 550 grams, less than a standard basketball. A blue pen

41、guin should weigh around 900 grams at this age.”可知，这只小蓝企鹅体重只有550克，而处于它这个年龄的小蓝企鹅的体重应达到900克左右。由此可推知，这只小蓝企鹅的体重低于它这个年龄的小蓝企鹅的体重。故C项正确。6D解析：词义猜测题。根据第四段第一句“Billy was taken to the Christchurch Penguin Rehabilitation Center after being retrieved from the beach.”可知，这只小蓝企鹅是从沙滩上被带到克赖斯特彻奇的一个企鹅康复中心的。由此可推知，画线词与bro

42、ught back“带回”意思相近。故D项正确。7C解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段可知，在这只小蓝企鹅被放回海洋之前，康复中心会帮助它增加一些体重。由此可推知，在企鹅康复中心里，这只小蓝企鹅会得到很好的照顾。故C项正确。【长难句分析】They stepped in to protect Billy, a blue penguin that appeared on a beach in Christchurch, New Zealand.分析：这是一个主从复合句。“a blue penguin”作“Billy”的同位语；“that appeared on a beach in Christchu

43、rch, New Zealand”为that引导的定语从句，that在从句中作主语，修饰先行词“a blue penguin”。译文：他们对Billy援之以手，将它保护起来，它是一只出现在新西兰克赖斯特彻奇沙滩上的小蓝企鹅。【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文。研究发现，动物和人类一样，也会经常做梦，梦的内容常常跟学习重要的技能和弄清最近学习的东西相关；体型越小的动物，做梦的频率越高。8B解析：细节理解题。根据第二段尾句“Obviously, the dreaming cats seemed to be practising important cat skills: following, pounc

44、ing, and fighting.”可知，这些做梦的猫似乎在练习重要的猫科动物技能：跟随、猛扑和打斗。故B项正确。9C解析：推理判断题。根据第四段第一句“Many researchers now think that in both people and animals, one purpose of dreams is to practise important skills and figure out recent learning.”可知，许多研究人员现在认为，无论是人还是动物，做梦的一个目的都是为了练习重要的技能，并弄清最近学习的东西。据此可推知，老鼠经常通过做梦来弄清楚最近学习的

45、东西，故C项正确。10A解析：细节理解题。根据尾段可知，动物做梦的频率跟它们的体型大小有关，猫每15分钟做一次梦，老鼠每9分钟做一次梦，大象每2小时做一次梦。据此可知，老鼠做梦的频率最高，故A项正确。11D解析：写作手法题。根据第一段倒数第二句“Although she twitches and makes little grunting noises, messages from her brain to the large muscles in her legs are blocked, so she cant run about.”并结合全文其他内容可知，文中列举了大量事实来说明动物做梦

46、的现象，从而组织文章，故D项正确。【长难句分析】If you watch closely, youll see that as she falls asleep, her breathing becomes slow and regular with her body still.分析：该句为主从复合句。句中“If you watch closely”为if引导的条件状语从句；“that as she falls asleep, her breathing becomes slow and regular with her body still”为that引导的宾语从句，作及物动词“see”的

47、宾语，其中“as she falls asleep”为as引导的时间状语从句。译文：如果你仔细观察，你会发现，当她睡着时，她的呼吸变得缓慢而有规律，而她的身体却静止不动。【解题导语】本文提出传统农业所提供的食物满足不了日益增长的人口的需求，垂直农业或许可以解决这一问题。但对这一农业方式，不同的人有不同的看法。12B解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中的“If current farming practices dont change, we will need an area of new land to produce enough food for the planet.”及第三段中的“Vert

48、ical farms.could be the solution.”可知，如果现代的农耕方式不改变，我们将需要新的土地来为地球(上的人们)生产足够的食物，而垂直农业或许可以解决食物短缺问题。故选B项。13A解析：细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Unlike traditional farming, vertical farming could be free of chemicals and diseases.”可知，垂直农业可以远离化学物质和疾病。由此可见，垂直农业的优点之一就是可以生产有机食物。故选A项。14C解析：细节理解题。根据第五段的内容，尤其是该段最后一句“For this reaso

49、n, vertical farms would need additional light sources(来源), such as artificial light.”可知，垂直农业需要额外的光源。由此可知，光源问题是实现垂直农业的一大挑战。故选C项。15D解析：标题归纳题。通读全文并根据第一段最后一句和最后一段可知，作者通过说明传统农业所提供的食物满足不了日益增长的人口的需求，提出需要创造现代垂直农业来解决这个问题。全文都是围绕着未来的垂直农业展开的，故D项(未来的农业)最适合作文章标题。第二节【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了培养创造力的一些方法。16A解析：根据空后的“but m

50、ore like something which.conditions for it”可知，空处和后面的句子构成一个“not.but.”句型。故选A项。17E解析：由空前一句“Limit your selection of tools to only the most vital.”可知，E项符合语境，承接上文。故选E项。18D解析：空前一句“Learn how to be resourceful.”中的“resourceful”和D项中的“Resourcefulness”相呼应。故选D项。19F解析：根据该段的主题句“Dont listen to feedback(反馈) and keep following your own path.”并结合空前一句“Others will unconsciously push you in a direction that they see as the best.”可知，其他人的反馈意图是好的，但会伤害你的创造力。故选F项。20B解析：根据文章的结构和空处所在的位置可知，空处为该段的主题句。本段主要讲的是有一个固定的程序实际上不是一个坏主意。故选B项。
