Well, farmland can become a desert. If there is little rain, plants die. The land gets so dry that no more plants can grow. The soil is blown away by the wind and the dry land turns into sand. As a result, deserts take the place of the farmland. This has happened in many parts of the world including China.

When his vegetables were picked, they were all found to be empty! BOY: Empty? You’re joking, Carrie---that can’t be true!GIRL: I didn’t believe it either! This article says this can happen sometimes with vegetables like cucumbers ,carrots and pumpkins. The chemical fertilizer makes the vefetables grow fast to look big and beautiful, but they are empty inside!BOY: You know, I’v noticed that sometimes my mum buys carrots from the supermarket that have big holes down in the centure. I guess that must be from using chemical fertilizers!GIRL: Yeah, that’s what the magazine says! The main point of the article, though, isn’t about holes in our vegetables. It is talking about why the fruit and vegetables we eat today aren’t as nutritious as the ones our grandparents ate.BOY: What? My mum is always telling me to eat more vegetables, because they’re good for me! GIRL:Yeah, I know-my mother says that same thing! And it’s true-they are good for us---but the problems is that they aren’t healthy enough! All these chemical fertilizers-they kill off both the bad and the good things in the ground. The ground does n’t have enough vitamins and minerals any more to help crops grow healthy.BOY: So---if our fruit and vegetables were grown with chemical fertilizers, they might look healthy, but probably aren’t really healthy?

Follow the tape ,read the listening text, and pay attention to the sentences underlined. Listening textFITHTING GROWING DESERTSWhy do we have deserts today? Deserts have not always been here. Most deserts that we have today were once green lands full of plant life. One of today’s biggest deserts is in North Africa. However, in the 1st century BC farms in North Africa grew corn and wheat to make bread for the whole city of Rome. How did this area become desert?Both weather and people can help form a desert. Hot weather or very little rain makes the lands so dry that nothing can grow. If people cut down or burn trees and plants to make land clear for farming, the wind can blow the soil away and turn the dry land into sand. Another big problem is farming on land that is not very good. This poor land can very quickly turn into desert, if it is farmed too much. One of the biggest causes, however, is when people take their animals to the same fields to feed over and over, and the fields finally lose all their nutrition. Because of these problems, deserts are slowly taking over green land in many parts of the world, including China.However we can fight the growing deserts! In some parts of China people are working to prevent desert from expanding. In Xinjiang, for example, some farmers are trying new scientific farming methods. These methods make it possible to use less land for crops,so farmers then can plant trees on the rest of their land! One Xinjiang farmer, used only half of his fields to grow the same amount of crops at last year. On the other half of his land, he planted fruit trees. The work of people like this is helping to fight the world’s growing deserts.Suggested answersLISTENING ONEStep I :hurt the health of the land; stay in the water for a long time ;get into people bodies through food; make the food unhealthyStepII 1, D 2,True 1,3 5 False 2,4StepIV stop using so many chemical fertilizers to grow our food;turn to organic farmingLISTENING TWOStepI. 1 Climate change and human activities2 Y es.3 Desertification and over cultivation of desert landsStepII 1,2,3,6Step III.1.green lands2.form3.farmed too much.4.feed over and over, nutrition5.taking over6.prevent desert from expanding7.the same amount of。

Unit 2Working the landReadingPrecision farming hits its target 精准农业正中靶心When we think of farming, the first image that springs to mind might be of a farmer working in a field under the baking sun. Face covered in sweat, he might be walking through the field, carefully checking his crops before deciding what needs to be done. In modern times, however, this deep-rooted image of a traditional farmer is being changed. The collaboration between farming and technology has given rise to precision farming, an approach that equips farmers with the tools and data they need to make reliable decisions with remarkable accuracy. This evolution is having a positive impact on farming, while also providing better solutions to the world's pressing food problems.当我们想到农业时，脑海中浮现的第一个画面可能就是烈日下一个农民在田地里干活。
他满脸大汗，可能正在田间走动，仔细检查他的作物，然后决定需要做什么。
