The area lucked vegetable seed developers who were trying to create hybrids for the local climate."I noticed the seed quality in that part of world was so much below our standards and below achievable standards.I could not stand that the farmers there did not have better seeds." Said Groot. At that time,farmers in Southeast Asia usually saved seeds from season to season.That was because the seeds available for sale were often old.Those seeds were usually from Europe or North America and did not grow well in their tropical climate.This meant that the farmers ended up with smaller crops,and lower quality that changed greatly from season to season.The plant also could easily become infected with diseases. Groot partnered with seed trader Benito Domingo of the Philippines.They put together a team of seed researchers and growers from Wageninge University in the Netherlands and the University of the Philippines.Within a few years,they developed a hybrid bitter gourd ( that sold successfully.Then they modified a tomato plant,followed by eggplants,pumpkins and leafy vegetables. The early success led to the start of the East-West Seed Company,which now has more than 970 improved seeds of 60 vegetable crops.Over the past 40 years,the discoveries have led to the creation of a tropical vegetable seed industry aimed at small farmers.The tropical seeds are now spreading into Asia,Africa and Latin America.It is estimated that the company's seeds are used by 20 million farmers each year in more than 60 countries. 56.Why was Groot awarded the 2019 World Food Prize (No more than 10 words.) 57.What's the main idea of Paragraph 2?(no more than 10 words) 58.What made the plants not grow well in Southeast Asia in the past?(No more than 15words) 59.What does the underlined word in the Paragraph 4 most probably mean?(Only 1 word) 第9页/共10页 河北工业大学附隔丘桥中学 60.What do you think of Groot's work?And give your reasons.(No more than 25 words) 第三部分：书面表达（满分15分) 61.假如你是晨光中学学生李津。你在前不久举行的“用英语讲中国故事”大赛中获得冠军。 英语很乐部请你在学校英文网站“Reading China'"专栏留言，跟同学们分享一下提升英语口 语水平、了解中国传统文化的经验。内容要点如下： 1.多听、多说，并积极参加学校的“英语角”、演讲比赛等活动； 2.广泛阅读传统文化书籍、参观博物馆等： 3.表达你的祝愿。 参考词汇： “用英语讲中国故事"大赛Stories of China Retold in English Challenge;冠军champion; 英语角English Corner。 Dear fellow students, Yours, LiJin
