课时分层检测（二十三） Revealing nature Ⅰ. 阅读理解 A（2026·厦门市高三下学期第四次质量检测） Cordero is the farm manager at Ollin Farms, not far from Boulder, Colorado. The locally grown vegetables on the farm aren’t just pretty. “We play an important role in public health nutrition programs,” says Cordero’s dad, Mark Guttridge, who started this farm with his wife, Kena, 17 years ago. At a meeting with about a dozen local farmers, two state representatives, and the Colorado officials of agriculture, Guttridge explains how Boulder county has made creative investments in his farm that could be spread to the state or even national level. Before the meeting, Guttridge shows them one of those investments. A dozen sheep, which Guttridge raises for wool, feed on root vegetables like radishes that have been leftover for them. “So these guys are out fertilizing the vegetable field,” Guttridge laughs. “They’ll be out here a couple more weeks, and then we’ll get our next summer vegetables planted right there.” Around the field is a special moveable type of fencing that Ollin Farms bought using financial aid from the Boulder County Sustainability Office. It allows them to move the sheep from one field to another, fertilizing as they go. The goal of these investments is “really building up our soil health,” he explains. “That relates directly to the nutrient quality of the food-healthy soil grows healthy food.” The county also makes an effort to get that healthy food out to different communities to boost public health. That’s where the Boulder County Public Health department comes in. It created a coupon program to give discounts to people buying fruits and vegetables from Ollin Farms. Nutrition incentive programs, like those public health fruit and vegetable coupons, are spreading all over the country, and most are funded through the federal farm bill. Amy Yaroch, executive director at the Gretchen Swanson Center for Nutrition, says “It’s a trip le win. It’s basically good for the consumers who live in that particular community because they’re getting the healthy food, it’s good for the farmer, and then it’s good for the economy.” 1. What does Ollin Farms do? A. It makes public nutrition health plans. B. It offers financial aid to other farms. C. It provides cheap food to the local community. D. It grows fruits and vegetables rich in nutrition. 2. How does Boulder county support sustainable farming practices at Ollin Farms? A. By raising sheep on radishes. B. By buying fences for farmhouses. C. By funding the farm’s soil health. D. By giving advice about fertilizing fields. 3. What is Amy’s attitude towards “nutrition incentive programs”? A Cautious. B. Dismissive. C. Unclear. D. Approving. 4. Which is the most suitable title for the text? A. Couponing for Health: Stimulating Nutrition Choices B. Growing Health: Innovations in Farm and Public Health Initiatives C. Fertile Fields and Furry Friends: A Farming Fairy Tale D. Local Produce, Global Impact: The Nutrition Choices of Ollin Farms B（2025·福建福州三模） Urban agriculture, the practice of farming within the restrictions of a city, is becoming increasingly popular and is viewed as a sustainable alternative to big industrial farms. By some estimates, between 20% and 30% of the global urban population engages in some form of urban agriculture. But until recently, its carbon footprint remains understudied. Using data from 73 low-tech city farms, community gardens and personal plots of land, Newell and his team compared the average carbon emissions of food produced at low-tech urban agriculture sites to those of conventionally grown crops. The team found that because of urban gardens’ relatively low yields, along with the energy used in constructing the planting beds, big-city spuds (马铃薯) were significantly more carbon-intensive than commercially grown ones. This held true even when the researchers factored in emissions from transporting commercially grown produce to often distant grocery stores. That doesn’t mean that growing vegetables in big cities is totally bad, however. “Urban farming is great, ” if imperfect, says Carola Grebitus, a food choice expert. It can be a powerful tool for job creation and education, she says, and a good way to introduce fresh produce to urban “food deserts” where healthy fruits and vegetables are hard to come by. Community gardens can also provide a place to connect with nature, and the added green space can reduce the risks of heat and flooding. Conscious of these benefits, Newell’s team highlighted several ways to make urban agriculture more sustainable. One option is to be selective about what crops are grown. For instance, tomatoes grown in the soil of open-air urban plots had a lower carbon intensity than tomatoes grown in conventional greenhouses. Another strategy is to rely on existing constructions. Include old structures into a new garden’s design instead of taking down old buildings. Finally, take the local climate, water quality and soil into account. Growing plants that are ill-suited to an area requires more water, energy and pesticides (杀虫剂), all of which affect the environment. 5. What can we know about urban agriculture from paragraph 1? A. It is thoroughly researched. B. It is welcomed by city people. C. It is environmentally friendly. D. It is limited to industrial farms. 6. How does the author explain the reason for urban agriculture’s higher carbon intensity? A. By making a comparison. B. By telling a story. C. By giving a definition. D. By using a quote. 7. According to Carola, what is a benefit of urban agriculture? A. It adds variety to urban people’s diet. B. It provides recreational opportunities. C. It strengthens the bonds of community. D. It helps to contain drought and flooding. 8. What is recommended to make urban agriculture more sustainable? A. Reconstructing gardens. B. Developing greenhouse crops. C. Selecting pesticide-free vegetables. D. Growing plants suited to local conditions.
