III. 阅读理解
A few weeks ago, I sat with a California farmer named Dave Ribeiro. I asked him what he wished to know about farmers. He smiled and said, “That we walk among you. We look like you and talk like you. We have advanced degrees and hobbies, just like you. ”
Take Dave for example: He’s a young man with a music degree. And if you walked past him on the street, you’d never think, “There goes a farmer. ”
Is someone like Dave who you picture when you think of a farmer? Probably not. I think that most people would picture a man in his overalls(工作服). I can tell you, that does not represent Dave or any of the many other farmers I have gotten to know.
Not only do we have to throw out our previous impression of farmers, but farming as a whole doesn’t look much like it used to either. We recently sent a team out to see what modern farming looks like, and they found farmers to be completely different from our usual ideas about them and also came across them in some unexpected places.
In a parking lot in a neighborhood of Brooklyn, they met a new crop of young farmers who were trying to bring fresh greens closer to eaters in the city by growing them in high-tech indoor vertical(垂直的) farms. In a Florida field under the flight path of an airport, they discovered farmers with university degrees growing plants that might someday fuel our cars. And in a modern farm in California, they observed how farmers were using technology to take the best possible care of their animals.
These farmers all spend their days in very different ways—none of them looks like the previous farmers we have in our mind—but they’re all working on new ways to feed our planet. Not only do we need to change our idea of what farming looks like, but we also need to change our view of where solutions can come from. Feeding all of us is going to take all of us working together.
1. How does Dave describe today’s farmers?
A. They often walk on the street.
B. They are leading a very busy life.
C. They are similar to ordinary people.
D. They have little time to make friends.
2. How does the author think most people see farmers?
A. They usually wear overalls.
B. They have interesting hobbies.
C. They are skilled at growing crops.
D. They know modern farming practices.
3. What was the purpose of the team?
A. To deepen connections among farmers.
B. To study different technologies in farming.
C. To find the new developments of modern farming.
D. To encourage farmers to use new farming method.
4. What do the farmers mentioned in Paragraph 5 have in common?
A. They all work in the city.
B. They all use high technology.
C. They all do hard physical work.
D. They all work with universities.
IV. 七选五
How to Make Good Conversation
“Conversation is the most sociable of all human activities. ” I totally agree with this point. Conversation is the main part of everyone’s daily life. 1 What’s more, good conversation is the most interesting part for us. In my view, you should pay attention to the following three issues to make good conversation.
To start good conversation, we’d better prepare some questions. 2 We can ask some questions to show our politeness and care for others. Like, do you have a good sleep last night? Or what do you do in your spare time? Think twice before you throw a question to others.
3 We should pay attention to what others said and think in their shoes. Allow the others to do most of the talking. Be patient and hold interest for their comments and make some noise to show you are listening carefully. 4 In this way you will get the credit for being a good conversationalist as well as a good listener and it will help you to make friends with others.
We always said eyes are the windows to the soul. Appropriate eye contact is like a great element of the main dish which makes it more delicious. 5 It will help us to improve mutual (相互的) understanding. Do not hesitate to look into them. But don’t stare at them and don’t look at them for too long a time. It would make others feel uneasy and unwilling to go on talking.
A. Good questions make people feel comfortable.
B. Without conversation, life would be as cold as a rock.
C. The most important part of conversation is to listen.
D. Enjoy good conversation and be friends with them.
E. Do not interrupt others when they share their views excitedly.
F. They have some ideas that they want us to know and even convince us.
G. During conversation, we should look the speakers in the eye friendly.

【参考范文】
Dear Tony,
I am Li Hua, a boy of 16 from China. I am glad to learn that you want to make an e-pal with a Chinese on the Internet. I want to be your friend and wish to know more about the culture of the USA.
I like talking with people and helping with their problems. I’m good at English and I think we can communicate with each other by sending e-mails or chatting on the Internet. In my spare time, I like table tennis, enjoy singing and I’m crazy about popular music. At the same time, I like travelling around. I hope you can come to visit China, and I’ll show you around many places of interest.
I’m looking forward to your early reply.
Yours,
Li Hua
