The 30yearold owner of Gashora Farm knows what a difference that makes.“You need more role models,” he
59、 said, standing among kneehigh rows of chilli(辣椒) plants. “If you have young farmers, having land and driving to the farm, others may think, Why cant I do that?”Mr. Twahirwa, a university graduate, bought a friends tomato farm six years ago for $150. He made $1,500 back in two months. “You have to l
60、ink farming with entrepreneurship and real numbers,” he said.Many young Africans are abandoning areas in the countryside, choosing not to work hard and for a long time in the fieldsa job made tougher by climate change.But Twahirwa is one of the growing band of successful farmers working to make agri
61、cultures image on the continent more attractive. Some 1,000 farmers now produce chillies for him. He is starting a fourth farm of his own, and exports fresh and dried chillies and oil to Britain, the United States, India, and Kenya.Africa has the worlds youngest population and 65 percent of its uncu
62、ltivated arable land(耕地后备资源). Yet accessing land and loans is difficult, and African productivity is low with crop yields just 56 percent of the international average.“Agriculture is mainly associated with suffering and no young person wants to suffer,” said Tamara Kaunda. She believes African agric
63、ulture needs a change to get rid of its oldfashioned image of very hard and tiring work with a hoe. “Show young people tractors, green fields, nice irrigation systems and smartphones,” she said.Getting young people involved in agriculture does not mean they have to work on a farm. For example, in co
64、ffee production, the beans go from the farm to the washing station, then to be separated from the husks(外壳)【解题导语】非洲青年Dieudonne Twahirwa从事农业生产,他通过自己的努力,获得了巨大的回报;非洲有世界上最年轻的人群与大量的耕地后备资源,但是由于气候与农业技术的落后,很多年轻人都不愿意从事农业;Dieudonne Twahirwa则为非洲青年树立了榜样。1What does “Why cant I do that?” in paragraph 2 mean?AWhy
65、cant I drive to the farm?BWhy cant they farm?CThey follow the example of those farmers.DThey bought a friends tomato farm.C解析:句意理解题。根据第二段中的“If you have young farmers, having land and driving to the farm, others may think, Why cant I do that?”可知,此处表示如果你有年轻的农民,他们有土地,而且开车去农场,其他人可能会想:“为什么我不能那样做?”该句意在表明其
66、他人认为他们可以效仿那些农民的做法。故选C。2What makes it harder for farmers to work?APoor land.BClimate change.CLow income. DLong working hours.B解析:细节理解题。根据第四段“Many young Africans are abandoning areas in the countryside.a job made tougher by climate change.”可知,在非洲,让农民的劳动难度更大的原因是气候变化。故选B。3When it comes to agriculture in
67、 Africa, what do people think about it?ALoans are difficult.BMost land is uncultivated.CCrop yields are rather low.DFarming methods are out of date.D解析:推理判断题。根据第七段中的“African agriculture needs a change to get rid of its oldfashioned image of very hard and tiring work with a hoe”可知,非洲农业需要改变,以摆脱其传统的形象:
68、使用锄头的非常辛苦和累人的工作。由此可知,当谈及非洲的农业时,人们想到的是落后的耕作方法。故选D。A、B、C三项均为非洲农业的实际情况,不是人们对其的看法。B(2020绍兴高三调研)The United States Congress is responsible for making and approving federal lawsrules that everyone in the country must follow. But exactly how do those laws get made? The process is not easy, and it takes a lo
69、ng time.A law begins when someone puts forward an idea. The idea can come from anyone, but it has to get to a US lawmaker who wants it to become legislation(法律). In time, the idea is further developed into a written proposal, called a bill.Then, a member of Congress officially proposes the bill. Aft
70、er the bill is introduced, it is sent to a small group of lawmakers, called a “committee”. Sometimes committee members seek more information about the proposal by holding hearings. Sometimes the committee changes the bill. Sometimes it decides not to take any action. In that case, we say lawmakers “
71、table” the bill, or let it “die in the committee”But now and then, the bill is offered to lawmakers not on the committee. Those lawmakers debate the bill further. They might change the bill again. Finally, the full House or Senate votes on the bill. If it does not earn the majority of votes, the bil
72、l does not advance.Finally, the agreedupon bill is sent to the president. If the president signs it, the bill becomes a law. If the president does nothing and Congress is officially meeting, the bill becomes a law. But if the president does nothing and Congress is not in session, the bill does not p
73、ass. Or the president can officially reject the bill. If that happens, the bill is not stopped. Instead, it is returned to both the Senate and the House. If twothirds of the senators and twothirds of the House members approve the bill once again, even with the president objecting, they turn the bill
74、 into a law.【解题导语】本文主要介绍了美国法律的制定过程。4Who is the first to propose a bill?AA lawyer.BA citizen.CA member of Congress. DA committee member.C解析:细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Then, a member of Congress officially proposes the bill.”可知,第一个提出议案的人是国会成员。故选C。5When does a bill finally become a law?AAfter it is sent to a commit
75、tee.BWhen the president signs it.CAfter it returns to the Congress.DWhile Congress is not in session.B解析:细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“If the president signs it, the bill becomes a law.”可知,如果总统签署了一致同意的议案,那么该议案就成了一项法律。6What can be inferred from the text?ANot every bill can be turned into a law.BAnybody can put forw
76、ard a proposal.CIf “tabled”, the bill has to be voted on.DOnce proposed, the bill cant be changed.A解析:推理判断题。根据对全文的整体理解,尤其是最后三段的内容可知,一项议案最终变成法律需要走很多程序,在这些程序中议案有可能被搁置或被否决,由此可推知,并不是每一项议案都会变成法律。.完形填空Sitting at a table in my school cafeteria, I looked around, slowly taking in everything.
