Ⅰ.阅读理解

A

(2025·广东深圳联考)A group of farmers in Nigeria is using a technology­based method to grow crops from small drops of water in the air.The method, known as aeroponics (气雾栽培), does not involve soil.Instead, plant roots hang in the air.

Aeroponics is not well­known in Nigeria, but farmers there are working to make the technique more popular.The technique could make a big difference in places like the city of Abeokuta.Conflicts and desertification—the process by which rich land becomes desert—have made huge amounts of land unsuitable for farming.

Biochemist Samson Ogbole is popularly known as Nigeria's smart farmer.He and his team are growing crops without soil at the technology­based farm they started three years ago in Abeokuta.“We are putting an end to seasonal food shortages in Nigeria，” said Ogbole.“Because we are the ones controlling everything that the plant requires, we are not depending on seasons.So it's no longer seasonal farming.It is just farming anytime of the year, meaning you can plant anytime of the year.We can harvest anytime of the year.”

But setting up the aeroponic farm was not easy.It required more than $180，000，Ogbole said.And, some people in Abcokuta were very much against this non­traditional method of

farming.“It took a lot of effort to change people's minds about aeroponics，” said Ogbole.

In Nigeria，about 30 million hectares (公顷) of farmland is being used, instead of the 78.5 million hectares required for food security.Conflicts and desertification are the top reasons the farmland is being lost.And only 49 percent of the land is rich.Besides, most farmers lack the technical knowledge to increase productivity.They also need access to high­quality seeds (种子) for better harvests.

For now, technologically skilled farmers like Samson Ogbole are offering a new way forward.
