◆句法分析
本句是主从复合句。不定式短语 to grow rice... 作后置定语;that has a high output是定语从句,修饰 rice。
◆要点必记
当被修饰词是序数词或被序数词修饰时,通常用不定式作后置定语。被修饰词与不定式之间是逻辑上的主谓关系。
不定式作后置定语的其他情况:
( 1)被修饰词被形容词最高级或 the only,the very,the right 等修饰时;
( 2)表示将来的动作时,常用不定式作后置定语;

[2019·安徽赛口中学高一开学考试]Have you ever heard of agritourism(观光农业) where you can experience farm life? If not,Dr. Cindy Ayers-Elliott will tell you the real story of Foot Print Farms.
The original concept of building Foot Print Farms was simple. When Ayers-Elliott returned to her hometown after graduation,she didn’t have to look any further than her state’s alarming health statistics to find a mission.
Everywhere she turned,there were reports of high blood pressure,diabetes,obesity and heart disease.“The problem was already identified.” explains Ayers-Elliott.“Too many Mississippians were seriously unhealthy and it didn’t take research to see that. And many of the state’s greatest health challenges could directly result from poor diet.”
These days,Foot Print Farms,which started with a few raised beds of herbs and vegetables,is making fresh,naturally grown food. “When speaking of the key to my success,the co-op model works because we share the work and rewards,” notes Ayers-Elliott.“A perfect example is the Wing field High School football team. To earn the money for equipment and other items,players committed to working five hours a week on the farm,and by the end of the summer they had produced 1,000 melons and the profits from their sales helped to buy weights,T-shirts,sweat suits and pregame meals. But the lessons they learned about the rewards of hard work and working together to accomplish something were even more valuable products of their efforts.”
“It’s a model that can easily be learned in other places and I’m looking forward to seeing some of our current partners do just that—to take what they have learned here and spin it off in other communities,”Ayers-Elliott remarks. She is now looking forward to developing an agritourism aspect to the farm,where visitors can experience farm life,learn new skills and take with them
seeds of inspiration they can sow in their own communities when they return home.
