Ⅰ．阅读理解(共4小题；每小题2.5分，满分10分)
In the past few years，consumers have become more aware of the importance of sustainability in fashion．They want to know how products are made to ensure that their purchases aren't negatively impacting the environment．This shift in consumer behavior has made traceable (可追踪的)cotton very popular with fashion brands，as it ensures the cotton comes from farms that
advocate for sustainable practices—and，in turn，allows the brands to market their products as such．To meet this demand，farmers are increasingly performing sustainable practice—things like promoting biodiversity and minimizing harmful pesticides．
Moving a farm to sustainable agriculture can be challenging，however．“Traceability covers all activities during the growing season through to harvest，which largely relies on date collection，” says Raymond Daniels，manager for BASF's agricultural solutions．Without using technology，this data process can become troublesome．Farmers are not experts，says Daniels，and often don't have the time needed to capture everything．To ensure the traceability of their cotton，more and more farmers are turning to BASF's e3 cotton program．
Aside from data tracking，farmers have the added benefit．“Once the cotton is harvested，we take the Permanent Bale ID (issued by the USDA)and attach that to the data captured in our platform，” says Daniels．“We can trace everything back to the field in which it was grown with the ID．” When brands know the cotton they are buying is from a sustainable farm，they are often willing to pay more for it．
Mark and Cali Noland have seen the benefits first-hand．The traceability provided by the e3 program has opened up new opportunities for them—including direct partnerships with clothing manufacturers．“In the past，we've been totally at the mercy of what the market is doing，” Cali says．Now，by employing technology，they're able to negotiate a price that reflects the actual value of their sustainably-produced cotton．“With our cotton，we've been able to make individual relationships with some fashion brands that want to know what practices you are doing on the farm for the quality of their product，” says Cali．
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了农民们越来越多地采用可持续化农业，而BASF的e3棉花计划则为农民提供了确保棉花可追溯性的方法，使得农民能够谈判到一个能反映其可持续生产棉花实际价值的价格，并有机会与服装制造商直接合作。
1．Why do farmers tend to adopt sustainable agriculture
A．Because consumers favor the cotton products．
B．Because sustainable practices guarantee the quality．
C．Because farmers want to satisfy the market requirements．
D．Because the fashion brands grow environment-conscious．
√
C [细节理解题。根据文章第一段最后一句“为了满足这一需求，农民们越来越多地采用可持续做法—比如促进生物多样性，尽量减少有害农药的使用。”可知，农民采用可持续农业是为了满足市场需求。故选C。]
2．What is BASF's e3 cotton program aimed at
A．Exploring a new market for cotton farmers．
B．Sparing farmers the laborious work on land．
C．Adjusting the process of agricultural production．

√
D [细节理解题。根据文章第二段最后一句“为了确保棉花的可追溯性，越来越多的农民正在转向BASF的e3棉花计划。”可知，BASF的e3棉花计划旨在提供签约棉花的可追溯信息。故选D。]
3．What benefits do the farmers gain through the e3 program
A．Easy network access．
B．Cooperation with manufacturers．
C．Independent pricing．
D．Output expansion．
√
B [推理判断题。根据文章最后一段前两句“Mark和Cali Noland亲身体验到了e3计划带来的好处。e3计划提供的可追溯性为他们开辟了新的机会—包括与服装制造商的直接合作。”可知，农民可以获得直接与厂商合作的机会。故选B。]
4．What is the suitable title for the text
A．The Rise of Traceable Cotton：Technology Enables Sustainable Farming
B．The Sustainable Agriculture：Unavoidable Changes Are on the Way
C．BAST's e3 Program：Cooperation Boosts Confidence
D．The Greener Fashion：Quality Always Comes First
√
A [标题归纳题。文章主要围绕“可追溯棉花的兴起”这一主题展开，并强调了技术(e3计划)在使可持续化农业成为可能方面的重要作用，所以选项A“可追溯棉花的兴起：技术使可持续农业成为可能”作为标题最为恰当。故选A。]
Ⅱ．阅读七选五(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)

【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。文章说明了从传统农业向现代农业转变过程中，科技如无人机、机器人和机械的开始使用，以及菲律宾农民Rey Kent Dejesica是如何帮助和贡献于农业的。
1．traditional [考查形容词。tradition为名词，此处需要用形容词形式来修饰后面的名词farming。故填traditional。]
2．who [考查定语从句。空处引导非限制性定语从句，young people是先行词，从句中缺少主语，故用关系代词who。故填who。]
3．to reduce [考查非谓语动词。want是谓语。结合句意并分析句子可知，此处表目的，应用动词不定式。故填to reduce。]
4．minimizes [考查动词时态和主谓一致。the use of drones是单数概念。根据上下文可知，此处描述的是一般性的事实，故使用一般现在时，主语为单数，谓语动词使用第三人称单数形式。故填minimizes。]
5．regions [考查名词复数。region是可数名词。根据some可知，这里指的是多个地区，故使用复数形式。故填regions。]
6．rapidly [考查副词。rapid是形容词，这里需要用副词形式来修饰形容词aging。故填rapidly。]
7．shortage [考查名词。short是形容词，这里需要用名词形式来作介词of的宾语，并且和food构成名词短语。故填shortage。]
8．why [考查表语从句。空处引导表语从句，这个表语从句解释的是上个句子的结果，that is why后面表示结果。故填why。]
9．to [考查介词。attract sb．to sth．是固定搭配。故填to。]

Ⅰ．阅读理解(共4小题；每小题2.5分，满分10分)
In the past few years，consumers have become more aware of the importance of sustainability in fashion．They want to know how products are made to ensure that their purchases aren't negatively impacting the environment．This shift in consumer behavior has made traceable (可追踪的)cotton very popular with fashion brands，as it ensures the cotton comes from farms that advocate for sustainable practices—and，in turn，allows the brands to market their products as such．To meet this demand，farmers are increasingly performing sustainable practice—things like promoting biodiversity and minimizing harmful pesticides．
Moving a farm to sustainable agriculture can be challenging，however．“Traceability covers all activities during the growing season through to harvest，which largely relies on date collection，” says Raymond Daniels，manager for BASF's agricultural solutions．Without using technology，this data process can become troublesome．Farmers are not experts，says Daniels，and often don't have the time needed to capture everything．To ensure the traceability of their cotton，more and more farmers are turning to BASF's e3 cotton program．
Aside from data tracking，farmers have the added benefit．“Once the cotton is harvested，we take the Permanent Bale ID (issued by the USDA)and attach that to the data captured in our platform，” says Daniels．“We can trace everything back to the field in which it was grown with the ID．” When brands know the cotton they are buying is from a sustainable farm，they are often willing to pay more for it．
Mark and Cali Noland have seen the benefits first-hand．The traceability provided by the e3 program has opened up new opportunities for them—including direct partnerships with clothing manufacturers．“In the past，we've been totally at the mercy of what the market is doing，” Cali says．Now，by employing technology，they're able to negotiate a price that reflects the actual value of their sustainably-produced cotton．“With our cotton，we've been able to make individual relationships with some fashion brands that want to know what practices you are doing on the farm for the quality of their product，” says Cali．
1．Why do farmers tend to adopt sustainable agriculture
A．Because consumers favor the cotton products．
B．Because sustainable practices guarantee the quality．
C．Because farmers want to satisfy the market requirements．
D．Because the fashion brands grow environment-conscious．
2．What is BASF's e3 cotton program aimed at
A．Exploring a new market for cotton farmers．
B．Sparing farmers the laborious work on land．
C．Adjusting the process of agricultural production．
D．Providing traceable information of signed cotton．
3．What benefits do the farmers gain through the e3 program
A．Easy network access．
B．Cooperation with manufacturers．
C．Independent pricing．
D．Output expansion．
4．What is the suitable title for the text
A．The Rise of Traceable Cotton：Technology Enables Sustainable Farming
B．The Sustainable Agriculture：Unavoidable Changes Are on the Way
C．BAST's e3 Program：Cooperation Boosts Confidence
D．The Greener Fashion：Quality Always Comes First
Ⅱ．阅读七选五(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)
