[解题导语]精细农业通过各种先进的技术手段让耕种者实时得到信息,减少浪费,提高产量,但是先进的未必是可接受的,大的农业公司愿意采用新技术来耕种,但农民们却未必愿意。
1.A 解析:
细节理解题。
从第二段可知,精细农业通过传感器、机器人、全球定位系统、地图工具、数据分析软件、无人机等可以传给农民庄稼的实时信息,然后农民再根据反馈信息浇水、喷洒农药、施肥等。
2.B 解析:
推理判断题。
从第四段可知,很多小的公司和一些大的公司都在开发用于精细农业的新传感器、软件等。
因此可以推断,精细农业得到企业积极的回应。
3.D 解析:
词义猜测题。
最后一句句意:
无论一些农民多么不想采用新技术,下一代农民很可能会对这种方法很感兴趣。
从最后一段可知,农民们并不是都喜欢精细农业的。
由此可推测,reticent的意思是“不情愿谈的;
说话有保留的”。
4.A 解析:
标题归纳题。
文章主要介绍精细农业的各种好处:
提高产量,减少浪费,并降低经济安全风险。
故选A项。
B

[解题导语]正如人体的微生物群落对人体的健康有影响一样,土壤的微生物群落也会对植物的产量和健康产生影响。
5.C 解析:
根据第二段中的“Totheresearchers'
surprise,thecommunitiesofmicrobesdidnotchangealotbeforeandafterthereplacement.Thesecommunitiesinthesoilareknownasthesoilmicrobiome(微生物群).”可知,令研究者惊讶的是土壤微生物群落几乎保持稳定。
6.D 解析:
根据第三段中的“Wethoughtthatthenew‘imported’turf(草皮)fromNewJerseywouldintroducedifferentcommunitiesofbacteriatotheNationalMall.However,wefoundthattheyweren'
tsignificantlydifferent.”可知,通过研究草皮,克劳奇和她的团队发现新移植过来的草皮带来的微生物群落与原来的微生物群落相似。
7.A 解析:
根据第五段第一句“Thinkofthesoilmicrobiomeassimilartothecollectionofmicrobesfoundinthehumanbody.”及该段后面的内容可推知,作者提及人类体内的微生物是为了说明这两种类型的微生物扮演着类似的角色。
8.B 解析:
最后一段主要讲了微生物群落可以对植物产生巨大影响,这提供了一个提高庄稼产量、促进植物健康的全新机会。
由此可知,对微生物群落的研究对农业是有益的。
