Producers and processors within countries specialize, too, as a way to minimize costs. As a result, a
51、t least in theory, prices stay low, the world gets fed and everyone wins.However, the coronavirus crisis demonstrates what is wrong with this approach. When barriers prevent food from reaching its markets, or demand suddenly drops both of which are happening now the system falls apart.Specialization
52、 of the food system makes it hard to shift into different markets when disruptions arise. Belgium, a leading exporter of potatoes, lost sales not only to local restaurants but also to other countries because of lockdowns（封锁）. At least the Belgians can try to eat the potatoes at home. That strategy w
53、ont work for every crop: Ghana, the worlds top cocoa exporter, lost markets when people stalled focusing on buying essential items instead of chocolate.The loss in export income in Africa more generally could have a huge impact if the pandemic continues, as many countries there rely heavily on impor
54、ted wheat and rice. The prices of these grains have soared not only because of rising demand for these grains during the crisis, but also because a few countries including Russia and Vietnam imposed export restrictions out of fear that sending food abroad would lead to higher prices at home.Concentr
55、ated markets dominated by just a handful of companies heighten food system fragility. For example, just three meatpacking plants process over 95 percent of Canadas beef and nearly all of its beef exports. Now, those meat processing plants have had to temporarily shut down because of outbreaks of COV
56、ID-19 among workers.Seeing the spoiled products across the world should force all of us to rethink our “efficient” food supplies. We need to rejuvenate（使恢复活力）local and regional food systems to reduce the vulnerabilities that come with being too reliant on imported and corporate-dominated foods. This
57、 doesnt mean cutting off all trade or abolishing all packaged foods, but it does mean building diversity, and increasing opportunities for small and medium-scale enterprises to flourish in shorter, more sustainable food supply chains that are closer to home.One place to start is for governments to s
58、hift their support from the large-scale, specialized and export-oriented food system to building infrastructure for more diverse local food systems. Around the world, small-scale and organic producers have been overwhelmed with the surge in interest from customers who want to buy directly from farme
59、rs during the crisis. But these producers often lack the infrastructure to meet that demand. As governments around the world pass stimulus packages to address the crisis, building more diverse and localized food systems should be an obvious inclusion.27. In theory, specialization of the food system
60、_.A. adapts to changes efficientlyB. balances supply and demandC. focuses on essential itemsD. reduces costs of production28. The underlined word “fragility” in Paragraph 5 means _.A. weaknessB. diversityC. unfairnessD. complexity29. What can we learn from the passage?A. A few countries restrict exp
61、orts to stabilize local food prices.B. Grain prices rise due to Africas dependence on importation.C. Ghana might be less affected by lockdowns than Belgium was.D. Packaged-food consumption should be encouraged to address the crisis.30. The main purpose of this passage is to _.A. expose food security
62、 issues during the crisisB. advocate establishing diverse local food systemsC. discuss the development of a sustainable economyD. prove the importance of sound government policies【答案】27. D 28. A 29. A 30. B【解析】【分析】这是一篇议论文。文章讲述了，从理论上讲，粮食系统的专业化降低了生产成本，但新冠肺炎疫情的爆发暴露了这种方法的问题，文章通过对实例的讨论表明建立多样化的地方食品体系势在必行。
63、【27题详解】细节理解题。根据第一段第二句“Producers and processors within countries specialize, too, as a way to minimize costs.”（各国的生产商和加工者也进行专业化，以尽量降低成本。）可知，从理论上讲，粮食系统的专业化降低了生产成本。故选D项。【28题详解】词义猜测题。根据第五段第二句“For example, just three meatpacking plants process over 95 percent of Canadas beef and nearly all of its beef ex
64、ports. ”（例如，仅三家肉类加工厂就加工了加拿大95%以上的牛肉和几乎所有的牛肉出口。），第三句“Now, those meat processing plants have had to temporarily shut down because of outbreaks of COVID-19 among workers.”（现在，由于工人中爆发了COVID-19病毒，这些肉类加工厂不得不暂时关闭。）和第六段第二句“We need to rejuvenate（使恢复活力）local and regional food systems to reduce the vulnerabili
65、ties that come with being too reliant on imported and corporate-dominated foods.”（我们需要振兴地方和区域食品体系，以减少过于依赖进口和企业主导的食品带来的脆弱性。）可知，此处是指由少数几家公司主导的集中市场加剧了食品体系的脆弱性。所以fragility意为“脆弱”。故选A项。【29题详解】细节理解题。根据第四段第二句“The prices of these grains have soared not only because of rising demand for these grains during th
66、e crisis, but also because a few countries including Russia and Vietnam imposed export restrictions out of fear that sending food abroad would lead to higher prices at home.”（这些粮食的价格飙升，不仅是因为危机期间对这些粮食的需求不断上升，还因为包括俄罗斯和越南在内的一些国家，由于担心把粮食出口到国外会导致国内价格上涨，实施了出口限制。）可知，少数国家限制粮食出口以稳定当地食品价格。故选A项。【30题详解】推理判断题。根据
67、最后一段第一句“One place to start is for governments to shift their support from the large-scale, specialized and export-oriented food system to building infrastructure for more diverse local food systems.”（首先，政府将其支持从大规模、专门化和出口导向的粮食系统转向为更多样化的地方粮食系统建设基础设施。）和最后一句“As governments around the world pass stimulus
68、 packages to address the crisis, building more diverse and localized food systems should be an obvious inclusion.”（随着世界各国政府通过刺激方案来应对危机，建立更加多样化和地方化的食品体系显然应该包括在内。）可知，文章的主要目的是倡导建立多样化的地方食品体系。故选B项。DEvery day, it seems that some new algorithm (算法) enables computers to diagnose a disease with unprecedented

If virtual humans could have replaced real people in some stages of a coronavirus vaccine trial, it could have sped development of a preventive tool and slowed down the pandemi
70、c. Similarly, potential vaccines that werent likely to work could have been identified early, reducing trial costs and avoiding testing poor vaccine candidates on living volunteers. These are some of the benefits of “in silico medicine”, or the testing of drugs and treatments on virtual organs or bo
71、dy systems to predict how a real person will respond to the therapies.The modeling begins by feeding anatomical data drawn from noninvasive (非侵入式) high- resolution imaging of an individuals actual organ into a complex mathematical model of the mechanisms that govern that organs function. Algorithms
72、running on powerful computers resolve the resulting equations and unknowns, generating a virtual organ that looks and behaves like the real thing.In silico clinical trials are already underway to an extent. Heart Flow Analysis, for instance, enables clinicians to identify CAD (冠心病) based on CT image
73、s of a patients heart. The Heart Flow system uses these images to construct a fluid dynamic model of the blood running through the coronary blood vessels, thereby identifying abnormal conditions and their severity. Without this technology, doctors would need to perform an invasive operation to decid
74、e whether and how to intervene. Experimenting on digital models of individual patients can also help personalize therapy for any number of conditions and is already used in diabetes care.The philosophy behind in silico medicine is not new. The ability to create and simulate the performance of an obj
75、ect under hundreds of operating conditions has been a cornerstone of engineering for decades, such as for designing electronic circuits, airplanes and buildings. Various obstacles remain to its widespread implementation in medical research and development.The predictive power and reliability of this
76、 technology must be confirmed, and that will require several advances. Those include the generation of high quality medical databases from a large, ethnically diverse patient base that has both women and men; improvement of mathematical models to account for the many interacting processes in the bod

78、egulatory demands requires considerable time and money. Creating demand for these computer-based diagnostic tools is challenging as well. In silico medicine must be able to deliver cost-effective value for patients, clinicians and health care organizations to accelerate their adoption of the technol
