Ⅰ.阅读理解
Bobby Wilson is retired. Well, he's supposed to be. But the Georgia farmer, “The Garden Man” named by his community, used his retirement savings to buy and operate a non-profit farm — the Metro Atlanta Urban Farm — and he hasn't slowed down since.
Years ago, Bobby Wilson saw a need for fighting hunger in his community. He worked hard all his life, but when it came time to retire, he knew his job wasn't over yet. So he poured his time, money and energy into stepping up to fill that need and combat food insecurity. He dedicated his life to helping his community and to creating a healthier, more sustainable world for his grandchildren.
Wilson is on a mission. He's on several missions, actually. While working for the University of Georgia for twenty years in gardening education, he saw a real need for affordable, nutritious food in his under-served community in the Atlanta metropolitan area. As food prices rise, the need has only increased. Families across the nation are feeling the pinch. It's getting harder and harder for people to afford nutritious food. According to U.S. Hunger, one in ten households faces food insecurity. In Georgia, where Bobby Wilson lives, the problem is even more terrible, with one in eight people facing hunger.
So Bobby Wilson is on a mission to help families in his disadvantaged neighborhood grow their own food on small tracts of land using sustainable practices. At a time when thousands of households are struggling to make ends meet, Wilson insists that people can save thousands of dollars if they grow their own vegetables. And he has set up a teaching farm on five acres of land in College Park, in the heart of the city, to show people how to do just that. Numerous volunteers are educated on the agriculture industry, including how to best acquire land and resources.
Asked about the principle of the farm, Wilson said, “It's more than just a farm. It's about justice, diversity, and inclusion. We are working for the community.”
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。Bobby Wilson用他的退休储蓄购买并经营了一个非营利性农场——亚特兰大都市农场,来为当地社区提供健康的食品。
1.Why did Bobby Wilson buy the Metro Atlanta Urban Farm
A.To continue to work after retirement.
B.To provide healthy food for the community.
C.To show his grandchildren how to grow food.
D.To educate volunteers on the agriculture industry.

√
2.What does the underlined phrase “feeling the pinch” mean in the third paragraph

√
3.Which words can best describe Bobby Wilson
A.Committed and adventurous. B.Generous and devoted.
C.Ambitious and knowledgeable. D.Responsible and modest.
解析:推理判断题。根据第二段“So he poured his time, money and energy into ... He dedicated his life to helping his community ...”以及第三段“So Bobby Wilson is on a mission to ... if they grow their own vegetables.”可推知,鲍比·威尔逊慷慨且有奉献精神。

A.A Retired Farmer Spreads Knowledge of Farming
B.The Metro Atlanta Urban Farm — More Than a Farm

According to U.S. Hunger, one in ten households faces food insecurity. In Georgia, where Bobby Wilson lives, the problem is even more terrible, with one in eight people facing hunger. So Bobby Wilson is on a mission to help families in his disadvantaged neighborhood grow their own food on small tracts of land using sustainable practices. At a time when thousands of households are struggling to make ends meet, Wilson insists that people can save thousands of dollars if they grow their own vegetables. And he has set up a teaching farm on five acres of land in College Park, in the heart of the city, to show people how to do just that. Numerous volunteers are educated on the agriculture industry, including how to best acquire land and resources.
Asked about the principle of the farm, Wilson said, “It's more than just a farm. It's about justice, diversity, and inclusion. We are working for the community.”
