(2025·广东广州三校联考)Leafy greens are a great way to improve your health as they possess many vital nutrients, vitamins, minerals and antioxidants.They are also low in calories, making them a good choice for those who want to manage their weight.The following salad leaves in your diet are highly recommended by nutritionists.

Spinach

Spinach is easy to get all year round.It is a good source of antioxidants, which can reduce the risk of many diseases, including heart disease and certain cancers.It's best eaten uncooked, as part of a salad, as cooking tends to destroy the naturally occurring nutrients in the leaves.

Collard greens

Collard greens are a good source of lutein, which is important for eye health.They are full of vitamins A and C and minerals such as calcium, iron, zinc, copper and selenium, and are a good source of fibre.As with spinach, you can get them all year round.

Rocket

If you're in the mood for a leafy green with a fresh, slightly bitter and peppery taste, consider adding rocket to your plate.Rocket is packed with nitrates—which studies have shown can boost performance in sports.Rocket is also rich in vitamins K and C, and calcium and polyphenols.

Romaine lettuce

Romaine lettuce is a good source of vitamins and minerals, including vitamins A, K, C and folate (叶酸)．These nutrients are essential for maintaining overall health and supporting a healthy immune system.Romaine is a source of fibre too, which is known to reduce your risk of heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes and bowel cancer.

(2025·山东滨州开学考)The state of Maine is famous for its delicious wild blueberries.The blueberries grow well on barren mountaintops, in abandoned fields, along rural roadsides or where most other plants don't grow.They are also decidedly native as they have been growing in this landscape for more than 10，000 years.

At David Dickey's small farm, farmers harvest blueberries, packing a burst of sweetness into tiny purple packages.They're also harvesting sunshine.A grid (格子) of solar panels stands a few feet above four hectares (10 acres) of the land.The electricity these generate powers a few hundred nearby homes.Under and around these panels are extending fields of the low, thick blueberry bushes.

Solar panels generate electric power without sending out the carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases that fossil fuels release as they're burned.Fixing solar panels on farms helps solve another major problem: finding the space to collect enough sunlight to produce enough supply of electricity.

This concept is called “Agrivoltaics”．The word combines “agriculture” with“photovoltaics (光伏)”．Photovoltaic materials—such as solar panels—generate electric current from sunlight.

Growing crops requires hard work—often generating only a low income.Agrivoltaic projects

can benefit farmers by giving them a second crop: electric power.Also, farmers can pick up some extra cash by renting their land to power companies that will fix their own solar panels on the site.

At the University of Maine in Orono, Dr.Calderwood focuses on finding ways to grow better berries.Her work includes studying how the bushes can be planted to produce delicious berries despite the shade cast by the solar panels at Dickey's farm.

“Although the idea behind Agrivoltaics has been around for decades, it's really just exploded over the last few years.Around the world, farmers and solar companies are working together to combine farming with the production of electricity，” Calderwood says.

[语篇解读]　本文是一篇说明文。文章以美国缅因州的蓝莓种植业为例，介绍了“农业光伏”这一概念。

4．How is the second paragraph developed?

A．By giving descriptions.

B．By making predictions.

C．By making comparisons.

D．By offering suggestions.

A．They take up less space.

B．They produce no pollution.
