2021版高考英语一轮复习Unit2Workingtheland夯基提能作业新人教版必修420210628163Ⅰ.阅读明白得A(2021福建泉州适应性考试)Experts predict nine billion people will live on our planet by 2050. They say by that time the demand for food will be two times what it is now. Officials are worried about that prediction because many people have already suffered from a lack of food. More than 800 million people go to bed hungry.A solution(解决方法)to the problem may be turning to our forests. A new report says forests can help reduce hunger and improve nutrition if they are properly managed.Bhaskar Vira is the director of the University of Cambridge Conservation Research Institute and an expert of the International Union of Forest Research Organizations (IUFRO). It recently released a report at the United Nations about forests and jungle food.Mr. Vira says crops that grow on trees can help feed people living in and around forests. He said,“It’s like an insurance policy. Having access to those tree-based food is hugely important when you can’t buy food from other sources or when your crops failed.”The report says that forest health and economic value will improve when people who live in or near forests are given greater control of them. For example, a project in Ghana aims for proper management of forests and fields. The people involved hope to grow the Allanblackia plant. The oil from its seeds can be used in soap, beauty products and food.Okai Michael Henchard leads the project. He says he will help people who live nearby. He says they will earn money and get trees on their land. The trees provide shade and improve the air quality. Mr. Henchard says the project also helps fight against climate change.1.What are officials worried about?A.Pollution and starvation.B.The large population and health.C.The great demand for food.D.The sharp decrease of forests.2.Which can solve the problem discussed in the text according to Mr. Vira?A.Better living conditions.B.Insurance policies.C.Tree-based food.D.More fields.3.What is the initial purpose of the project in Ghana?A.To manage forests and fields.B.To grow the Allanblackia plant.C.To produce more oil.D.To beautify the environment.4.What would be the best title for the text?A.A solution to controlling the populationB.Forests can help feed the worldC.The importance of forest healthD.The project in Ghana helps the nativesB(2021湖南张家界模拟)Studies show farmland in Africa is often lacking in important nutrients.But researchers say a combination 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 plants—those 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 yi eld.”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 they’re not putting in organic matte r.They’re not putting in fertilizers.They can’t afford those things.And it just runs the soil down. So they’re 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.“She’s a grandmother in her fifties.Her name is Rhoda 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.”5.The purpose of the passage is to .A.tell people how to increase productionB.introduce an agricultural system in AfricaC.introduce the oldest farming method in AfricaD.tell us how to prevent soil from being poor6.What does the underlined word “weathering” in Paragraph 4 most probably mean?A.Being exposed to wind and rain.B.Growing different crops.C.Being polluted severely.D.Being ploughed improperly.7.According to the passage, which of the following statements is WRONG?A.Perenniation mixes food crops with trees and perennial plants.B.Poor soil is the main problem in increasing food production.C.Farmers may be more to blame for the present situation.D.American researchers first invented perenniation.8.Why does John Reganold mention Rhoda?A.To show the method is very popular in Africa.B.Because she is an expert at farming production.C.To prove the farming method is effective.D.Because she produced more grains than anyone else in the country.Ⅱ.语法填空阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

高考英语一轮复习：Unit 2 Working the land(建议用时：35分钟)Ⅰ.阅读理解A(2020·沈阳高三质监)China is a large producer and consumerof rice. But, as a result of climate change, the amount of landavailable for rice growing in the country is shrinking. Theconcern has motivated scientists led by Yuan Longping，knownas “the father of hybrid rice”， to look for new ways of growing the grain.Now they’re celebrating successful efforts to grow rice—in sand and seawater. Rice is traditionally grown in soil and fresh water. Starting from January, according to the official Xinhua News Agency, the scientists have grown dozens of varieties of rice in the deserts of Dubai. They experimented with seawater because it is easier to obtain in the desert than fresh water.China is not the only country facing the issue of overly salty soil. Around the world, there are around 2.35 billion acres of highly saline(含盐的) land. And the number is increasing because of rising sea levels and climate change.“Probably only a small part of the world’s saline land could be brought into production with seawater rice，but that would still have a very important effect on food security，” Even R. Pay, a senior analyst, said.Yuan told Xinhua that one of the varieties of rice grown in Dubai produced over three tons, per acre, which Yuan said was beyond expectations.Rice is the basic food in many parts of the world. About 90% of rice consumption is from Asia, but demand in Africa and Latin America is on the rise.A climate change researcher said the successful experiment could potentially benefit many countries. “This is a fantastic development, which is likely to have a good effect on agricultural resource and waterpoor countries, particularly in North Africa region.”Even though the cost of growing salttolerant rice is still high，it will also have strategic value once it’s commercialized.【解题导语】本文主要介绍了在“杂交水稻之父”袁隆平带领下的科学家们进行了在沙子和海水中种植水稻的试验。

Those who claim bananas are fattening argue that bananas cause the body to make lots of insulin(胰岛素), and insulin causes fat growth.How much insulin we produce is related to how fast food becomes sugar in our bloodstream. How can you know if food makes a lot of sugar quickly? The glycemic index(血糖指数), or GI rating tells us. Foods with GI scores above 75 are considered highGI foods, leading to faster sugar development. Bananas have a GI of 62, which is considered low.Weight loss can be a struggle for anyone, but it is especially hard for diabetics(糖尿病患者). A study looked at how the starch from unripe bananas affected the weight of a group of obese diabetics. After four weeks of a diet high in bananas, diabetics lost significantly more weight than on a control diet. They also saw improvements in insulin sensitivity from the banana diet.What’s more, bananas have been shown to cut risks of strokes, diabetes and cancers.(Bananas are the most powerful fruit for lowering the risk of kidney cancer.) Bananas are also a rich source of fiber, which has been shown to help weight loss. Bananas that still have some green on the skin are even higher in fiber.Skins from green bananas can be taken and, after removing the stem and dark tip, cut into small pieces 2－3 inches long and 1/2 inch wide. These pieces can be made into a tea or added to a dish. When you eat the skins, be sure you are eating organic bananas. The flesh of regular bananas is low in pesticides, but the skins are not.【解题导语】本文反对了“吃香蕉会使人发胖”这一错误观点，告诉大伙儿香蕉可不能使躯体分泌专门多胰岛素而导致脂肪增加，相反，香蕉对躯体健康有着诸多好处。

Whenever something looks interesting or beautiful, there is a natural desire of us to capture(捕捉) and preserve it—which means, in this day and age, that we are likely to reach for our phones to take a picture.Though this would seem to be an ideal solution, there are two big problems associated with taking pictures. Firstly, we are likely to be so busy taking pictures that we forget to look at the world whose beauty and interest encourage us to take a photograph in the first place. And secondly, because we feel the pictures are safely stored on our phones, we never get around to looking at them, so sure are we that we’ll get around to them one day.The first person to notice the problems was the English art critic(评论家), John Ruskin. He was a keen traveler who realized that most tourists make a poor job of noticing or remembering the beautiful things they see. He argued that humans have a natural tendency to respond to beauty and desire to have it, but there are better and worse expressions of this desire. At worst, we get into buying souvenirs or taking photographs. But, in Ruskin’s eyes, there’s just one thing we should do—attempting to draw the interesting things we see, regardless of whether we happen to have any talent for doing so.Ruskin said, “Drawing can teach us to see: to notice properly rather than gaze absentmindedly.In the process of recreating with our own hands what lies before our eyes, we naturally move from a position of observing beauty in a loose way to one where we acquire a deep understanding of its parts.”Ruskin deplored the blindness and hurry of modern tourists, especially those who prided themselves on traveling around the whole Europe in a week by train, “Nochanging of places at a hundred miles an hour will make us stronger, happier, or wiser. There was always more in the world than men could see, if they ever walked slowly. The really precious things are thoughts and sights, not pace.”【解题导语】本文要紧讨论了旅行中如何享受美景以及游客普遍存在的问题。

The 22-year-old biology major at Huazhong University of Science and Technology found a job as an IT technician in Shanghai. ＂My experience in the club gave me another ‘diploma’,＂ said Mu. ＂More importantly, I found something I am good at and can make a living from.＂Now campuses (校园) around the country have started recruiting (招收) fresh faces for all kinds of clubs. Upperclassmen and experts suggest a hobby-based choice of clubs, which might have a lasting impact (阻碍)on one’s life and career. Zhang Ling did not get many chances to write stories as an environmental protection major at Jiangxi University of Science and Technology. But this changed when she joined the university broadcasting station. Her daily interviews with students and teachers expanded her horizons. Now she is determined to become a journalist on environmental issues with her degree in environmental protection. ＂Journalism changed my life track,＂ said the 22-year-old girl. ＂I only wanted to be a science teacher in a local senior high school. But now I am applying for a graduate school in journalism.＂Lan Yujie, a professor at Anhui University of Technology, regards Mu and Zhang as good examples of choosing ＂what I like＂ instead of ＂what is practical＂ in finding jobs and seeking further study. ＂Some freshmen don’t know what to choose,＂said Lan. ＂Just following a hobby and doing something you like can easily give you the experiences that make you happy and special.＂Lan further says that joining clubs should not necessarily have a purpose. As part of campus life, a club experience will impact one’s life and career in one way or another. ＂The point of clubs is to have as many diverse(多样的)experiences as possible so that students can explore more of their life,＂ said Lan.8.Why did Mu Yumin join the computer club?A.

He studies ecological literacy —or eco-literacy, for short. Eco-literacy is the ability to think about and understand the natural processes that make life possible.Monty Hempel says eco-literacy gives people knowledge about environmental problems. But he says it does not always work on getting them to change their behavior.Mr. Hempel wrote part of the Worldwatch Institute’s latest State of the World report. He says in his article, ＂Some people think that eco-literacy is just a green form of science literacy. And what I have tried to ask is whether that’s enough. In other words, what an ecologically-literate person needs to know might include things like the effect of environmental pollution on ecosystem, the energy systems, and all of those kinds of things that we would call the science of ecology.＂＂That doesn’t seem to lead to action to protect our environment — to protect our life-support system to the level that we need to. Just knowing a lot about theenvironment doesn’t mean that we actually act to save it. After all, actions speak louder than knowledge. ＂He adds that people may not be very worried about environmental problems if they seem far away. ＂Some people call it psychological distance. A lot of climate issues are worse in the Arctic and most of us don’t spend time in the Arctic. And so, there’s a certain distance. But there’s also a distance that’s happening in the world as it urbanizes — people spending more time in front of screens and less time out in nature. We become, if you will, disconnected from the natural systems that used to be the key to success for a human being. ＂To help children discover the wonders of nature, he adds that children should learn about nature in school. But he also points out we have a high mountain for people to climb from knowledge to action.12.From what Monty Hempel says in Paragraph 3, we learn that _________.A. knowledge on environmental protection is not enoughB. knowledge that children learn at school is uselessC. eco-literacy can help people understand how nature worksD. people with enough knowledge will protect the environment well13.What is especially important for environmental protection in Mr. Hempel’s opinion?A. Knowledge.B. Action.C. Green living.D. Psychological distance.14.Mr. Hempel thinks people show no concern about some environmental problems because .A. they lack knowledge on environmental protectionB. they have no awareness of environmental protectionC. some environmental problems are not worse at allD. some environmental problems happen far away15.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. Experts think it is the best way to learn nature in school.B. Climbing a high mountain is a good way to exercise well.C. Changing people’s attitude to environmental protection is hard.D. Knowledge can help children take action to protect the environment.第二节 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)依照短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
