26、CHEMICAL VS ORGANIC FARMING

Chemical pesticides (农药) and artificial fertilisers (人工化肥) have been in widespread use in farming since the middle of the 20th century. When they were first introduced, many farmers welcomed them as a great way to fight crop disease and increase production. Over time, however, what some scientists have found is that their long-term use can sometimes harm both the land and people’s health.

For example, pesticides can damage the land by killing not only harmful bacteria and insects, but also helpful ones. In addition, these chemicals can stay in the soil and underground water sources for a long time. This affects the crops grown on the land and, in turn, the animals and humans who digest them. Many people worry that these chemicals may make them ill and even cause cancer. In fact, some pesticides like DDT have been forbidden in most countries because of the damage they cause to people and the environment. As for chemical fertilisers, crops grown with them usually grow too fast to be rich in nutrition. They may look beautiful on the outside, but inside there is usually more water than essential minerals, and they often have less flavour as well.

As an alternative, some farmers have turned to organic farming, and many customers have turned to organic food when they shop at the local grocery. Organic farming is simply farming without using any chemicals. Organic farmers focus on keeping their soil rich and free of disease through natural means. For example, many organic farmers use natural waste from animals as fertiliser. This makes the soil in their fields richer in minerals. It also keeps the air, soil, water, and crops free of chemicals.   

Organic farmers also use many other methods to produce rich soil. They often change the kind of crop grown in each field every year. For instance, they may grow corn or wheat in a field one year, and then grow beans there the next. Why different crops are grown is because they put important minerals back into the ground, making it ready for the next batch of crops. The goal of using different organic farming methods is to grow good food while avoiding damage to the environment or to people’s health.

Some people would prefer to stop the use of man-made chemicals in agriculture entirely. What keeps them from doing so is the fact that chemical farming serves the high demand for food around the world. Organic farming is nowhere near able to meet that need. Therefore, there is still a long way to find a suitable solution that puts sufficient food on the dinner table while keeping people and the environment as healthy as possible.

【1】What does the underlined word “digest” in paragraph 2 probably mean?

A．Eat.

B．Approach.

C．Plant.

D．Carry.

【2】How is organic farming different from chemical farming?

A．Organic farming can meet the huge demand for food around the world.

B．Organic farming aims at growing good food and keeping soil rich and healthy.

C．Crops grown with organic farming look beautiful but have less nutrition and flavor.

D．Organic farming does harm to people and the environment and is not allowed to use.

【3】What can we learn from the passage?

A．Organic farming couldn’t find its way in farming since it has low production.

B．Organic farming is better than chemical farming and could take the place of it.

C．We should stop the use of man-made chemicals in farming because of their harm.

D．It takes a long time to keep a balance between producing sufficient food and ensuring health.

27、   Polar bears are strong creatures, standing up to nine feet tall and weighing up to one thousand pounds. 【1】 Their snow-white coat is thick with a double layer of fur. Also, a layer of fat lies just under their skin, keeping them extra warm. For months polar bears have to live off this fat, gained from winter feedings on the ice. When they're on land, they barely eat.

In early November 201 8 the polar bears were still on land. There was no sea ice on Hudson Bay, Weeks passed. By December, there was still barely any ice at all 【2】

The warmer climate affected the polar bears in important ways, In the 1980s, Hudson Bay bears were bigger and rounder, well fed. 【3】 That's because with fewer weeks on ice,their hunting, season has become shorter, They, have. less food, In Hudson. Bay, polar bear numbers have dropped.

In 2018, the water in Hudson Bay didn't freeze until December 12. That was very late.“Sea ice is finally forming," one scientist reported.“The polar bears are moving quickly offshore."The Arctic- the polar bears' habitat- is changing. Temperatures have gone up about 3 degrees Celsius since 1900. 【4】 In 2019, it was 30 percent smaller than it was twenty-five years earlier. And each year, the remaining ice cover is melting(融化) faster and faster.

【5】 Certain gases in the atmosphere“greenhouse gases"----hold in heat, keeping it from escaping into space. Higher temperatures bring changes in plant and animal life, in sources of food and water, in rainfall and snowfall, floods and droughts. Habitats around the world are at risk"

A．They are built for the cold.

B．The ice cover is becoming smaller, too.

C．In the Arctic, winter used to come early.

D．Thousands of polar bears live in the Arctic.

E．So the polar bears had to wait longer to return to the sea.

F．Recently they've been losing weight and becoming weaker.

G．The fact is that our entire planet is getting warmer, not just the Arctic.

28、This website is designed to explore how the experience, diagnosis and treatment of illness has changed over time, and to show some of the many ways illness has been understood by humans. It is our hope that you will leave the site with a broader appreciation of the relationship of medicine to culture, and an understanding that our own medical practices look different when seen in a historical context.

In exploring this site, we ask you to think of this fundamental idea: that illness, the feeling and experience of being sick, is itself a historical object. Illness and medicine are not static(静止的) phenomena. Different people in different time periods can experience, understand and treat similar groups of symptoms very differently. Cycles of fevers and chills may be identified as being a particular disease, part of a general pattern of seasonal health or an internal struggle of opposing yet complementary forces. These are more than just descriptions; they influence the actual experience of having illness, and strongly influence the treatment. A body that is out of balance feels pain in manner that is subjectively different from a body fighting a battle against an external attacker. We believe that illness changes over time. Thus, to fully understand illness, we need not just biological explanation, but also historical explanation. We need both medicine and the history of illness.

Related to this idea is a second. This is the concept that illness, and the medical responses to illness, are related to cultural worldviews. How we see the world structures how we experience and shape the world we live in. What makes particular responses seem reasonable emerges from specific cultural values. The judgements about what medical practices are effective and sensible are value judgements made in the context of broader cultural beliefs about how the world works, our place in that world, and what is morally good and bad. Our aim is to help you understand why blood-letting for instance, now considered unacceptable, was a sensible healing activity in the early 19th century.

Finally, it is easy to read the history of medicine as one of constant progression leading from barbaric (野蛮的) roots to a scientific approaches embodied in current medical practice. We believe that this understanding is problematic. First, a lack of knowledge that we have today did not mean that medicine in other time periods and cultures was wrong. Based on cultural values and contemporary knowledge, other cultures developed advanced treatments that were effective and sensible for their people, although they may be considered barbaric nowadays. Similarly in a century or two, our own medical practices may seem backward and nonsensical, it is not the case that former practices have led simplistically to our own superior knowledge.

【1】According to the first paragraph, the website is intended to show that ________.

A．many illnesses were wrongly diagnosed in the past

B．we have unrealistic expectations of medical practice

C．medicine should be examined in connection with culture

D．changes in living conditions have led to the development of new illnesses

【2】The writer refers to fevers and chills (paragraph 2) to illustrate ________.

A．we need more accurate biological explanations of illnesses

B．illnesses are influenced by climate and environment

C．our bodies are constantly under attack from illnesses

D．how an illness is interpreted affects how it is experienced

【3】What can be inferred from the third paragraph?

A．In certain cultures, the factual basis of illnesses is not recognized

B．Medical practices have improved over time.

C．Illness can influence our perception of the world.

D．We judge past medical practices by inappropriate principles.

【4】In the last paragraph, what assumption is criticized?

A．There are considerable differences between cultures.

B．Illnesses are better understood today than in the past.

C．Current medical practices will be seen differently in the future.

D．Little research is being carried out into the treatment of some diseases.

Alfred Nobel Rests in Peace

People like Martin Luther King Jr,Nelson Mandela,Aung San Suu Kyi,Kofi Annan,Lech Walesa and Mother Teresan have become famous all around the world.And what do they have in common?They are all winners of the Nobel Pease Prize.But none of them would have received their  prize and the 【1】 it brings if it had not been for one Swedish man ,Alfred Norbel.

When Alfred joined the Norbel family company,it had been developing explosives for many years,Aifred's father,lmmanuel,had started the family fortune by working for the Russian army to produce landmines and seamins,which are bombs that are put under the ground or in the sea,and  【2】  when people move over them.But the family made even more money by manufacturing intro-glycerine,which was an 【3】 but evry dangerous explosive.One day Aifred arrived home to find that his 20-year-old brother Emil had been killed in a nitro-glycerine explosion.Alfred became determined to invent a safer explosive.The result was dynamite,which became an 【4】 success all over the world.

Alfred Norbel always wanted dynamite to be used for peaceful means.And when it was used to blast a path for the Panama Canal in 1914 he couldn't have been  【5】 .Unfortunately,in the same year,the First World War started,and,when it ended four years later,dynamite had been used to take away the lives of thousands of young men.Alfred had always hated war and considered it to be ‘the horror of horrors and the greatest of all crimes’.To see his 【6】invention being used in this way made him very sad.

Sometime later Alfred's older brother Ludwig died.one newspaper 【7】 printed Aflred's obituary instesd of his brother's. The obituary described Alfred as a man who had become rich by inventing a weapon of mass 【8】 . When Alfred read this review of his life,he was wery unhappy and decided to do something about it.He decided that he would use the gread fortune that he had made to 【9】  people who had been working to promote good in socirty.The five awards he created were for physics,chemistry,medicine,literature and,most  【10】 ,peace.The Norbel Peace Prize was awarded to the person who had done the most,or the best,work to promote friendship between countries,to adolish armies and to hold and promote peace conferences.
