D Many effective agricultural techninues have roots in pre-agricultural human historv. Fora thousand years, people have used controlled burning techniques to get rid of brush, allowing edible(可食用的) plants to grow better and preventing larger wildfires during dry seasons. Today, large wildfires in North America and Australia demonstrate the importance of maintaining controlled burning practices perfeeted by many Native American farmers and Aboriginal Australian peoples. Farming has also improved over the years. Early farmers set small plots of land by hand. clearing away trees with simple tools and digging sticks to break up and till the soil. Over time, improved farming tools of bone, stone and iron were develored. New methods of storage developed. People began storing large quantities of foods in jars and elay lined wells for use ir times of emergencies. They also began making elay pots and other tools for carrying and cooking food. Around 55oo BCE, farmers in Mesopotamia developed simple irigation() systems. By channelling water from streams onto their fields, farmers were able to settle in areas once thought to be unsuited to agriculture. In Mesopotamia, Egypt, and China, people organised themselves and worked together to huild and mantain better irrigation systems. Early farmers also developed improved varieties of plants. For example, around 6ooo BCE, a new variety of wheat arose in South Asia and Egypt. It was stronger than previous grains and it could be made into bread. ln China, farmers also adapted tools and methods from nearby empires. A variety of rice from Vietnam ripened quickly and allowed farmers to harvest several erops during a single growing season. This rice quickly became popular throughout China. Many European farmers around 1ooo to 145o CE used an open field system of planting. One field would be planted in spring, another in autumn, and one would he left unplanted. This system preserved nutrients in the soil. inereasng crop production. 32. Why are the controlled burnng techniques mentioned in Paragraph 1? A.
