Question

【題目】 For many Chinese families, rice is an important part of almost every meal. Where does rice come from? Yuan Longping(袁隆平) and his team work to grow rice on the farmland(耕地).

China has 22% of the world’s population(人口), but only 7% of its farmland, so food was a big problem in China in the past. In the 1960s, there was a terrible famine in China. Millions of people died because they had no food. Yuan taught farming at school at that time and he was really sad to see this. “How can I help them have enough food?” he thought. He decided to work on a kind of hybrid rice(雜交水稻) because it has higher output(產(chǎn)量).

At the time, other scientists hardly believed hybrid rice had much value. But Yuan and his team worked on it every day. They took very good care of their rice.

At last, in 1973, they grew a new type of hybrid rice. Farmers can grow it in many different kinds of farmland and also in bad weather. It can fight disease, too. Its output is much greater than common kinds of rice. With the new type, about 70,000,000 people could have food every year!

Yuan solved the food problem in China. But he is still working on rice. Before he retires(退休), he hopes to grow rice by the sea!

【解析】

這是一篇記敘文。文章主要講述在過去，食物是中國的大問題。袁隆平看到中國的饑荒很多人死于沒有食物，為了幫助人們有足夠的食物，他和他的團(tuán)隊(duì)研究雜交水稻，并取得成功，解決了中國的食物問題。

【1】推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段“For many Chinese families, rice is an important part of almost every meal”可知A表示正確；根據(jù)第三段“Yuan and his team worked on it every day”可知B 表述正確。根據(jù)第二段“Yuan taught farming at school at that time”可知袁隆平饑荒的時(shí)候在學(xué)校教書，C選項(xiàng)表述錯(cuò)誤。故選C。

【2】詞義猜測題。根據(jù)第二段“Millions of people died because they had no food”數(shù)百萬的人沒有食物死了，可知famine是饑荒的意思。故選C。

【3】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段“China has 22% of the world’s population(人口), but only 7% of its farmland, so food was a big problem in China in the past”可知中國人很多，農(nóng)田很少，所以過去食物是中國的大問題。故選B。

【4】推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段“At the time, other scientists hardly believed hybrid rice had much value”可知A表述錯(cuò)誤。根據(jù)第四段“Farmers can grow it in many different kinds of farmland and also in bad weather. It can fight disease, too. Its output is much greater than common kinds of rice”可知種雜交水稻對農(nóng)民來說很容易，B選項(xiàng)表述正確。根據(jù)最后一段“But he is still working on rice”可知還沒退休，C選項(xiàng)表述錯(cuò)誤。故選B。

【5】推理判斷題。文章主要介紹了袁隆平以及雜交水稻，寫作目的是幫助讀者了解袁隆平這一人物以及雜交水稻。故選A。
