重庆市2017高考英语阅读理解选编(17)附答案解析 文章大意:本文是一篇议论文。为了应对机械化农业的弊端,越来越多的小农业开始兴盛起来了,它们生产的农畜牧产品不仅丰富了人们的一日三餐,同时也更绿色、更健康。 1.The underlined words “popping up” (in the 1st paragraph) probably means ________. A.improving B.fading C.profiting D.appearing 答案:D 词义猜测题。根据文章第一句中“and now more locallyfarmed protein choices are available”可知,现在有更多的当地小农场喂养的动物可满足人们对蛋白质的需求,即当地出现了越来越多小农场,由此可知,appear与pop up意思最为接近,故答案D符合文义。 2.The song “Old McDonald” describes ________. A.animals raised freely on local farms B.animals kept in tightly enclosed conditions C.commercial farms providing fast food D.commercial farms providing unpopular foods 答案:A 推理判断题。根据文章第二段第一句“Today’s commercial farms do not fit the image...”的提示和下文对商业农场喂养动物的方法的描述可知,the song “Old McDonald”所描述的喂养方式正好和商业农场相反,由此可推知,答案A符合文义。 3.Some medicines are less effective for beef consumers probably because ________. A.some cattle feed on grains B.all cattle diet on grass C.some medicines are used to treat sick cattle D.some antibiotics are used by both cattle and people 答案:D 细节理解题。根据文章第三段最后一句中“and some of the antibiotics used to treat the cattle are similar to those given to humans...”可推知,答案D符合文义。 4.We can infer from the text that ________. A.food from local farms can help add to the variety in our daily meals B.soy or grains are on the list of traditional diets of the cattle C.corn for the cattle leads the meat to lower in both fat and calories D.lower temperature makes grassfed beef more delicious 答案:A 推理判断题。根据文章第一段第一句“Walking in a farmers’ market often brings one to explore new food options, and now more locallyfarmed protein choices are available to help bridge the gap between our meals and the farms on which they originated.”可推知,选项A“当地小农场的食物可以丰富我们的一日三餐”符合文义。B、C两项与原文不符;D项不是经过推理得出的,不符合题意,故排除。
