29、病) sweeping acrossAmericas farmland. It has little to do with the usual challenges, such as flood, rising fuel pricesand crop-eating insects. The countrys farmers are getting older, and there are fewer people standing in line to take their place. National agricultural census (普查) figures show that t

30、he fastest-growing group of farmers is the part over 65. Merrigan is afraid the average age will be even higher when the 2012 statistics are completed.Merrigan, a former college professor, is making stops at universities across the country in hopes of encouraging more students to think about careers

31、 in agriculture. Aside from trying to stop the graying of Americas farmers, her work is made tougher by a recent blog posting that put agriculture at No. 1 on a list of “useless” college degrees. Top federal agriculture officials are talking about the posting, and it has the attention of agricultura

32、l organizations across the country.“There couldnt be anything thats more incorrect,” Merrigan said. “We know that there arent enough qualified graduates to fill the jobs that are out there in American agriculture.”In addition, a growing world population that some experts predict will require 70% mor

33、e foodproduction by 2050, she said.“I truly believe were at a golden age of agriculture. Global demand is at an all-time recordhigh, and global supplies are at all-time record lows,” said Matt Rush, director of the Texas FarmBureau. “Production costs are going to be valuable enough that younger peop

34、le are going to have the opportunity to be involved in agriculture.”The Department of Agriculture has programs aimed at developing more farmers and at increasing interest in locally grown food. The National Young Farmers Coalition has also been pushing for state and federal policy changes to make it

35、 easier for new farmers.Ryan Best, president of Future Farmers of America, has been living out of a suitcase, travelingthe country and visiting with high school students about careers in agriculture. The 21-year-old Besthopes his messagethat this is a new time in agriculturewill motivate the next ge

36、neration to turnaround the statistics. “Never before have we had the innovations (創(chuàng)新) in technology which haveled to agriculture in this country being the most efficient it has ever been,” he said. “Theres really a place for everybody to fit in.”59. What is the new challenge to American agriculture?

37、A. Fewer and older farmers. B. Higher fuel prices.C. More natural disasters. D. Lower agricultural output.60. Why is Merrigan visiting universities across the country?A. To draw federal agriculture officials attention.B. To select qualified agriculture graduates.C. To clarify a recent blog posting.D

38、. To talk more students into farming careers.61. According to Matt Rush, American agriculture will provide opportunities for younger peoplebecause_.A. the government will cover production costsB. global food supplies will be even lowerC. investment in agriculture will be profitableD. America will in

39、crease its food export62. What do the underlined words “to turn around the statistics” in the last paragraph mean?A. To re-analyze the result of the national census.B. To increase agricultural production.C. To bring down the average age of farmers.D. To invest more in agriculture. CMedical drugs som

40、etimes cause more damage than they cure. One solution to this problem is toput the drugs inside a capsule, protecting them from the bodyand the body from themuntil theycan be released at just the right spot. There are lots of ways to trigger (引發(fā)) this release, including changing temperature, acidity

41、, and so on. But triggers can come with their own risksburns, for example. Now, researchers in California have designed what could be a harmless trigger to date: shining near-infrared light (NIR, 近紅外線) on the drug in the capsule.The idea of using light to liberate the drug in the capsule isnt new. R

42、esearchers around the globe have developed polymers (聚合物) and other materials that begin to break down when theyabsorb either ultraviolet (UV, 紫外線) or visible light. But tissues also readily absorb UV andvisible light, which means the drug release can be triggered only near the skin, where the light

43、 canreach the capsule. NIR light largely passes through tissues, so researchers have tried to use it as atrigger. But few compounds (化合物) absorb NIR well and go through chemical changes.That changed last year when Adah Almutairi, a chemist at the University of California, SanDiego, reported that she

44、 and her colleagues had designed a polymer that breaks down when itabsorbs NIR light. Their polymer used a commercially available NIR-absorbing group calledo-nitrobenzyl (ONB). When they catch the light, ONB groups fall off the polymer, leading to itsbreakdown. But ONB is only a so-so NIR absorber,

45、and it could be poisonous to cells when itseparates from the polymer.So Almutairi and her colleagues reported creating a new material for capsules thats even better.This one consists of a long chain of compounds called cresol groups linked in a polymer. Cresol contains reactive(易反應的) components that

46、 make it highly unstable in its polymeric form, a feature Almutairi and her colleagues use to their advantage. After polymerizing the cresols, they cap each reactive component with a light-absorbing compound called Bhc. When the Bhcs absorb NIR light, the reactive groups are exposed and break the lo

47、ng polymer into two short chains. Shining additional light continues this breakdown, potentially releasing any drugs in the capsule. Whats more, Almutairi says, Bhc is 10 times better at absorbing NIR than is ONB and is not poisonous to cells.63. According to the passage, which of the following coul

48、d be the best trigger?A. Temperature change. B. NIR light. C. Acidity change. D. UV light.64. Why is ONB unsatisfactory?A. It breaks down when it absorbs NIR light.B. It falls off the polymer and triggers drug release.C. It has not come onto the market up till now.D. It is not effective enough and c

49、ould be poisonous.65. Which word can be used to complete the following process of changes?A. protected B. formed C. exposed D. combined DFranz Kafka wrote that “a book must be the ax (斧子) for the frozen sea inside us. ”I onceshared this sentence with a class of seventh graders, and it didnt seem to

50、require any explanation.Wed just finished John Steinbecks novel Of Mice and Men. When we read the end together out loud in class, my toughest boy, a star basketball player, wept a little, and so did I. “Are you crying?” one girl asked, as she got out of her chair to take a closer look. “I am,” I tol

51、d her, “andthe funny thing is Ive read it many times.”But they understood. When George shoots Lennie, the tragedy is that we realize it was alwaysgoing to happen. In my 14 years of teaching in a New York City public middle school, Ive taughtkids with imprisoned parents, abusive parents, irresponsibl

52、e parents; kids who are parentsthemselves; kids who are homeless; kids who grew up in violent neighborhoods. They understand,more than I ever will, the novels terrible logicthe giving way of dreams to fate (命運).For the last seven years, I have worked as a reading enrichment teacher, reading classic

53、worksof literature with small groups of students from grades six to eight. I originally proposed this idea tomy headmaster after learning that a former excellent student of mine had transferred out of a selective high schoolone that often attracts the literary-minded children of Manhattans upper classesinto a less competitive setting. The daughter of immigrants, with a father in prison, she perhaps feltuncomfortable with her new classmates. I thought additional “cultural capital” could help studentslike her develop better in high school, where they would unavoidably meet
