Period One Reading and Thinking— Comprehension 1 　　[导读] 2021年5月22日,“杂交水稻之父”袁隆平院士逝世。袁隆平生前在中国粮食安全、提高世界粮食产量方面做出了卓越贡献。 Scientist Yuan Longping, renowned for developing the first hybrid rice strain that pulled countless people out of hunger, died of illness at 91 on Saturday. The top rice scientist in China passed away in a hospital in Changsha, Hunan Province, at about 1 pm, according to the hospital and other sources. Family members hummed songs to Yuan in his final hours, reporters at the site said. 主题素养积累 2 Having spent over five decades on hybrid rice research, the academician with the China Academy of Engineering has helped China work a great wonder—feeding nearly one-fifth of the world's population with less than 9 percent of the world's total land. Born in Beijing in 1930, Yuan succeeded in cultivating the world's first high-yielding hybrid rice strain in 1973, which was later grown on a large scale in China and other countries to substantially raise output. 主题素养积累 3 For the next four decades, he continued to research and upgrade hybrid rice, which has reached its third generation. Until early 2021, he had been conducting research in a seed breeding base in Hainan. In China, where rice is the staple for the majority of the 1.4 billion population, the accumulated planting area of hybrid rice has exceeded 16 million hectares, or 57 percent of the total planting area of rice, helping feed an extra 80 million people a year. 主题素养积累 Its growth area overseas has reached 8 million hectares. Yuan once said he had two dreams—to “enjoy the cool under the rice crops taller than men” and that the hybrid rice could be grown all over the world to help solve the global food scarcity(短缺). 主题素养积累 On China's Twitter-like Sina Weibo, the news has been viewed 950 million times so far, with netizens from all walks of life expressing grief at the death of a great man. “Three times a day, when we enjoy the fragrance of rice, you will be dearly remembered,” said a comment that has been liked more than 600,000 times. 主题素养积累 6 【主题词句背诵】 1.work a great wonder 创造了一个伟大的奇迹 2.feed v. 喂养,饲养,为……提供食物 3.cultivate v. 种植,培育 4.high-yielding hybrid rice strain 高产杂交水稻品种 5.on a large scale 大规模地 主题素养积累 7 6.all walks of life 各行各业 7.For the next four decades, he continued to research and upgrade hybrid rice, which has reached its third generation. 在接下来的四十年里,他继续研究和改良杂交水稻,(现在)杂交水稻已经到了第三代。 主题素养积累 8 课前自主探究 课后习题 9 Task 1: Fast Reading ⅠWhat's the text mainly about? ___________________________________________________________ ________________.

She aimed to grow different kinds of crops, save water, and improve soil health. This led her to a training programme started by PepsiCo and GIZ, a German organization for international teamwork, under the develoPPP project. The programme was designed to help Thai potato 1 2 3 4 课 后 习 题 25 farmers adapt to climate change through environmentally friendly farming practices. Before she eagerly joined the training in 2022, Lakkhampa had been using traditional methods. The develoPPP programme offered many learning chances, like training courses and visits to a model farm. She quickly began to learn and apply several innovative methods. For her rice fields, she practised switching between wetting and drying the soil. This means sometimes removing the water from the 1 2 3 4 课 后 习 题 field and sometimes filling it again. This method uses 30% less water and produces fewer greenhouse gases. After gathering rice, she planted potatoes in the same field. This “integrated farming” approach, along with careful drop-by-drop watering for her corn and potatoes, allowed her to use fewer insect-killing chemicals and fertilizers while achieving better crops and a higher income. She effectively made her farming able to face future challenges. Her success did not go unnoticed. Recognizing her potential, the programme leaders encouraged her to become a trainer. Lakkhampa 1 2 3 4 课 后 习 题 soon began speaking at women farmer training courses and guiding others. She became a trailblazer in her community and one of her rice fields became a model field, where neighbours could see her effective methods first-hand, building trust and inspiring knowledge sharing within the community. The develoPPP programme, having educated over 3,000 farmers in Thailand, shows the power of joint efforts. It enables farmers to work together, strengthening their practices and management to meet market demands. From 2022 to 2024, these farmers increased 1 2 3 4 课 后 习 题 their income by over 50% and reduced greenhouse gas emissions per ton produced by 27%. Lakkhampa’s story proves that change often starts small—with one farmer, one field, one idea—creating lasting hope for the future. 1 2 3 4 课 后 习 题 【文章大意】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了泰国农民Lakkhampa通过 参加develoPPP项目,学习可持续农业技术,成功应对气候变化挑战,并成 为社区楷模的故事。 1 2 3 4 课 后 习 题 30 (　)1.Why did Lakkhampa join the develoPPP programme? A.To make more like-minded friends. B.To meet the needs of the local market. C.To learn ways to deal with climate change. D.To teach other women farmers in her community. [解析] 细节理解题。根据第一段“Faced with climate challenges… She aimed to grow different kinds of crops, save water, and improve soil health. This led her to a training programme started by PepsiCo and GIZ, a German organization for international teamwork, under √ 1 2 3 4 课 后 习 题 31 the develoPPP project…to help Thai potato farmers adapt to climate change…”可知,Lakkhampa加入这个项目是为了学习应对气候变化的 方法。故选C。 1 2 3 4 课 后 习 题 32 (　)2.What is a direct benefit of the “wetting and drying” method? A.It frees crops from diseases. B.It enriches the soil with natural fertilizers. C.It lowers the environmental impact of farming. D.It allows different crops to grow at the same time. [解析] 细节理解题。根据第三段“For her rice fields, she practised switching between wetting and drying the soil. This means sometimes removing the water from the field and sometimes filling it again. This method uses 30% less water and produces fewer greenhouse gases.” √ 1 2 3 4 课 后 习 题 33 可知,“湿润和干燥”方法可以减少用水量和温室气体排放,即降低了 农业对环境的影响。故选C。 1 2 3 4 课 后 习 题 34 (　)3.What does the underlined word “trailblazer” in Paragraph 4 mean? A.Pioneer. 　　　　B.Performer. C.Observer. D.Designer. [解析] 词义猜测题。根据下文“…one of her rice fields became a model field, where neighbours could see her effective methods first- hand, building trust and inspiring knowledge sharing within the community.”可推测出,她成了社区中的一名“先驱”。由此可推知, trailblazer意为“先驱”。故选A。 √ 1 2 3 4 课 后 习 题 35 (　)4.Which of the following is the best title for the text? A.A farmer’s path to a lasting future B.Advanced technology in modern agriculture C.Climate change: a great challenge to Thai farmers D.PepsiCo and GIZ: a partnership for global business √ 1 2 3 4 课 后 习 题 36 [解析] 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Lakkhampa’s story proves that change often starts small—with one farmer, one field, one idea—c reating lasting hope for the future.”和全文内容可知,文章讲述了泰国 农民Lakkhampa通过参加develoPPP项目,学习可持续农业技术,成功应 对气候变化挑战,并成为社区楷模的故事。所以选项A“一个农民通往 持久未来的道路”可作为本文的最佳标题。故选A。 1 2 3 4 课 后 习 题 37 Ⅴ阅读七选五(每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) [2026·广东茂名高二期中考试] In cities across the globe, up to a quarter of office buildings are unoccupied, along with other urban properties, from storage to abandoned skyscrapers. To put this space to use, many cities are transforming empty buildings for other uses. 1.________ Just as the name suggests, vertical (垂直的) farming is the practice of growing crops in layers as opposed to traditional 　　　  B 1 2 3 4 5 课 后 习 题 38 horizontal rows. These layers are often placed in spaces unfit for farming, but now we can grow crops there due to advanced agricultural methods. 2. _________ However, thanks to technology, artificial light, and controlled temperatures and humidity, office spaces have proved to be great environments for farming.  3._________ It dates back over 2,000 years with the Hanging Gardens of Babylon. Modern vertical farming simply began as an experiment in 1999, focused on growing food on the rooftops of Manhattan. This work eventually transformed into using high-rise C 1 2 3 4 5 A 课 后 习 题 39 buildings as vertical farms to feed thousands of people in a sustainable manner. Vertical farming is now a $6 billion industry.  The main benefit of vertical farming is that it maximizes the yield of crops by efficiently using space. 4._________ It is made possible by their controlled environments and soilless agriculture methods like hydroponics (水培法). Hydroponics allows plants to grow in a water- based solution rather than soil, saving water. In fact, hydroponic systems only require 10% of the water of a traditional field.  Despite being untraditional, vertical farms produce over 50 types D 1 2 3 4 5 课 后 习 题 of plants, ranging from leafy greens and herbs to experimental fruits and more! 5.__________ The reason lies in that they are capable of growing a variety of produce at all times and providing people with local fresh foods at affordable prices.  G 1 2 3 4 5 课 后 习 题 A.Vertical farming has a rich history. B.One solution is indoor vertical farming. C.The practice isn’t as simple as it sounds. D.Most vertical farms can grow all year round. E.That said, vertical farming will replace traditional agriculture soon. F.Despite the benefits, the method also comes with considerable downside. G.This diversity and consistent output help address a critical urban issue: food deserts. 1 2 3 4 5 课 后 习 题 42 【文章大意】这是一篇说明文。本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了城 市中利用空置建筑发展垂直农业的相关情况。 1 2 3 4 5 课 后 习 题 43 1.___ B [解析] 根据前文“To put this space to use, many cities are transforming empty buildings for other uses.”可知,前文提出“改造空 置建筑”的需求,此空需承接该需求,给出具体的改造方向。B选项“One solution is indoor vertical farming.”(其中一种解决方案是室内垂直农 业。)符合语境。故选B。 1 2 3 4 5 课 后 习 题 44 2.___ C [解析] 根据前文“These layers are often placed in spaces unfit for farming, but now we can grow crops there due to advanced agricultural methods.”以及空后“However, thanks to technology, artificial light, and controlled temperatures and humidity, office spaces have proved to be great environments for farming.”可知,空处 需先说明垂直农业的实施难度,与下文形成转折。C选项“The practice isn’t as simple as it sounds.”(这种做法并不像听起来那么简单。)符合 语境。故选C。 1 2 3 4 5 课 后 习 题 45 3.___ A [解析] 根据后文“It dates back over 2,000 years with the Hanging Gardens of Babylon.
