分析 Jackie Heinricher开始爱上了她后院的竹子."在小时候,我记得我在爸爸种植的金竹旁玩耍,当有微风吹过时,竹子发出了令人难以置信的音乐.这就是我的魔幻区域."
Heinricher,47岁是通过培训的渔业生物学家,计划在西雅图干鲑鱼工业,在那里她与丈夫盖伊索恩伯勒生活,但她发现这个行业竞争力太强了.她的花园给了她办一个业务的想法:她要在她的7英亩的农场上种植20棵竹子,并已取得了一些成功繁殖的成果,在那些小花园里(每小时成长二英寸,成为了一个景观,好像没有那么快).
Heinricher于1998年承包了竹笋花园.她意识这些只是刚刚开始:令人难以置信的是竹子多才多艺,非常环保.它可以用来制造捕鱼杆,滑板,建筑,家具,地板,甚至是服装和床上用品(织物软丝绸).另外一个好处:竹子作为一种硬木树可吸收四倍二氧化碳,并释放更多的氧气,大概超过百分之三十五.如果Heinricher可以利用她的园艺技能来推动绿色环保事业,这样会更好.
起初,她不得不找到一种方法,来大规模的生产,这是一项艰巨的任务,因为竹子花产生种子每50到100年才一次.所以竹子工厂经常没有材料可用.
Heinricher呼吁组织培养专家兰迪伯尔帮助她."人们不停地说我们没有成果出来"Heinricher说."很多人工作了27年,我相信我们所做的,所以,我们只要坚持,不放弃."
她是感觉到有一种紧迫感.竹林正在迅速枯竭,联合国的一份报告表明,即使是高度可再生竹子,有多达一半的世界物种濒临灭绝.Heinricher知道竹子可以对二氧化碳排放量和世界经济有重大的影响,但前提是可以大量生产.而这只是她和伯尔经过9年实验得出的结论-可以让植物成千上万的增长.把剪好的竹子放入试管中,与盐,维生素,植物激素,和海藻胶混合,植物发芽了,然后拿出来,把他们放在温室的土壤中.
在破解了代码之后,伯尔的实验室遇到了财政问题.Heinricher在组织培养操作中没有任何经验,但她不准备辞职.于是,她购买了实验室."这是一场可怕的挑战,"她说."我从5个员工干到了55个员工[包括伯尔].我不怎么睡觉.一夜之间就像在新兵训练营里一样.有时候,我奇怪我怎么会在这里."
今天Heinricher拥有了一个盈利数百万美元的公司,与世界各地有贸易往来."如果你想做农场竹子业,没有植株很难完成,这就是我们所经历的"她说.
解答 56---59 ACAB
56.答案A.细节理解题.根据第四段First she had to find a way to mass-produce the plants-a tough task,since bamboo flowers create seed only once every 50to 100years.And dividing a bamboo plant frequently kills it可知,竹子花产生种子每50到100年才一次,所以她们面临的最大问题是没有足够的竹子.故选A.
57.答案C.细节理解题.根据第三段"She realized early on what is just now beginning to be known to the rest of the world.It can be used to make fishing poles,skateboards,buildings,furniture,floors,and even clothing.An added bonus:Bamboo absorbs four times as much carbon dioxide as a group of hardwood trees and releases 35percent more oxygen"可知,Heinricher认为竹子多才多艺,非常环保.故选C.
58.答案A.词义猜测题.根据"though bamboo is highly renewable,as many as half of the world's species are threatened with dying out"可知,前后两句话之间为转折关系,故renewable与dying out意思相反,故选A.renewable可更新的,能再生的.
59.答案B.主旨大意题.根据全文可知,Heinricher是一个意志坚定的人,不管遇到多大的困难,她的决心都不会变.故选B 她的决心帮助她获得成功.
点评 科普类的阅读理解包含介绍科学知识、社会知识的短文.阅读这类短文时,要以事实为中心进行思考,抓住事物的特征、用途、相互关系等.如果是介绍社会现象的文章,要掌握所谈现象的内涵.答题技巧:1.加强整体意识,把握文章的主要内容.在阅读的时候可给段落标上序号,并给重要的句子和关键词做上记号,尤其是各段中心句,为答题提供更快捷更多的信息源.2.审清题干,发觉和把握试题中有效的提示性信息,确认命题的角度、阅读范围和答题方式.3.定位阅读,强化对应意识.同时要注意原文利用和自我加工相结合.
