Unit 5 Working the Land
Learning about language(1):Vocabulary
By the end of this lesson, you will be able to:
1.acquire agriculture-related expressions in context such as commit, output, conventional, consumption, tackle, vision, crisis, character;
2.identify and apply three main types of morphological processes: synonym, derivation and compounding;
3. develop a deeper understanding of agriculture by applying agriculture-related expressions.

Practice and Application:
An Urban Farm
P52 plete the news report below with the correct forms of the words and phrases in the box.
Activity4: Practice
Activity4: Practice
A vast underground shelter built during World War I has been turned into an urban farm, supplying supermarkets and restaurants in London. The shelter, which could protect up to 8,000 people from wartime bombs, _______________ two large tunnels that were intended to one day become an extension of the London Underground. But that never became _______ and the shelter was left for 70 years. Then businessmen decided to make use of it to grow green vegetables to meet increasing _____________ demands.

Activity4: Practice
The tunnels are lit with pink LEDs as there is no natural light __________ below the ground. The vegetables are grown in special liquids instead of the earth that is used as in ____________ farming. Many experts share a ___________ that this kind of urban farming could help not only in ________ the problem of population growth, but also in adapting to climate change.

Describe a farm with a modern farming method according to the introduction and pictures.(Use words and expressions learnt in this class, such as output, consumption, tackle, vision, conventional, etc.)
Activity5: Application
A sustainable farm of the future: The Metro-Green Farm. This farm is to tackle two major challenges: food shortage in urban areas and high fuel consumption in conventional agriculture.
Activity5: Application
This farm is an urban farm, located in repurposed underground tunnels, just like in the news report. This solves the problem of limited land.
The farm is comprised of several sections for different crops like hybrid tomatoes, leafy greens, and fast-growing root vegetables.
Activity5: Application
We reject conventional farming methods. Instead, We ①grow our plants in water with special nutrients, ②use pink LED lights to support photosynthesis deep down in the tunnels,③use renewable energy like solar panels to power our systems, drastically reducing fuel consumption.
Activity5: Application
The vision is not just to produce food, but to strengthen our community. We will create new jobs and offer educational tours for students.
Deep down, we believe this is a powerful way to overcome the crisis of food security and build a sustainable future.
Do you think urban farming (like the tunnel farm in the news report) can become a reality in most cities Why or why not
Activity 6: Discussion
Discussion Tips:
1.Think about the agricultural technologies
Like precision farming, ecological agriculture
With rural large-scale farming in ensuring food supply
What role do factors like land availability, cost, and idle spaces play in whether urban farming can spread
Do cities have enough professionals who understand both farming tech and urban operations Will urban farms be economically competitive with rural farms
How do a city’s economic strength, climate, and residents’ lifestyle affect the feasibility of tunnel farms
2.Compare urban farming’s advantages/disadvantages
3.Consider urban resources
4.Reflect on talents and economy
5.Analyze regional differences
Answer 1: It can become a reality in most cities
1. Mature technologies like soilless culture and precision irrigation fit urban idle spaces such as rooftops.
2. Shortens food supply chains, enhancing urban food security as emphasized in the unit.
3. Recycles water and uses solar energy, conforming to the unit’s ecological agriculture concept.
4. Low - cost tech promotion and urban environmental policies support its popularization.
Answer 2: It cannot become a reality in most cities
1. Urban land is scarce and expensive, which contradicts the unit’s emphasis on land’s significance for agriculture.
2. Professional talents skilled in both precision farming and urban operations are in short supply.
3. Compared with rural large - scale farms, its unit costs are high and output is low.
4. Lacks market competitiveness, failing to attract long - term investment.
Answer 3: It can partially become a reality but not universally
1. Wealthy eco - focused metropolises can fund idle - space transformation, in line with the unit’s diversified agriculture idea.
2. Small cities with insufficient funds prioritize infrastructure over urban farming.
3. Extremely cold/hot cities bear high temperature - control costs; mild - climate cities have lower promotion thresholds.
4. Different levels of residents’ acceptance restrict its large - scale and universal development.
1.Read the passage and:
(1)work out the meanings and word formation type of underlined words.
(2)use the correct forms of the expressions in the box to complete the passage.
Homework
2.微写作：Write a short paragraph about a farming experience using words and expressions learnt in this class, such as commit, output, conventional, consumption, tackle, vision, crisis etc.
