【正文】 ing programs in China and intensive agriculture in both countries, NASA said in a statement. China is the source of a quarter of the planet39。s increase in forest area, despite having only percent of the world39。s vegetated (固定植被的)area, according to the study. Forest conservation and expansion programs account for 42 percent of the increase, and another 32 percent e from intensive agriculture of food crops, NASA said. While raising their green leaf areas, China and India have also greatly increased their food production through multiple cropping practices, where a field is replanted and crops are harvested several time each year. Production of grains, vegetable, fruits and more have increased by about 35 to 40 percent since 2000 to feed their large population, NASA said. Over the past decades, China has made great efforts to green the land. In 1978, the central government launched a nationallevel forestation projectthe Three North Shelterbelt Forest Program. By the end of 2017, the forest coverage rate among the regions in the project reached percent, pared to percent 40 years ago. In a greening project, Kubuqi Desert, seventh largest in the country, has seen onethird of its area covered by vegetation during the past three decades thanks to forestation efforts.（1）What have China and India contributed to according to NASA? A.Land greening.B.Land degradation.C.Population explosion.D.Forest conservation.（2）What can we learn about multiple cropping practices? A.They turn out to be ineffective.B.They improve the food output.C.They raise the vegetated area.D.They allow planning once annually.（3）What was the forest coverage rate in 1977? A.%.B.%.C.%.D.32%.（4）How is the passage mainly developed? A.By space.B.By listing facts.C.By parison.D.By making definition.【答案】 （1）A（2）B（3）A（4）C 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇新聞報道,介紹了美國航天局的一項最新研究顯示，中國和印度是全球綠化努力的領(lǐng)導者。 （1）考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第一段中的China and India, the world39。s two most populous countries, are primarily responsible for making the Earth greener可知,美國宇航局的研究顯示中國和印度使地球變得更綠,也就是說中國和印度的主要貢獻在于土地綠化,故選A。 （2）考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第三段中的China and India have also greatly increased their food production through multiple cropping practices,可知,中國和印度通過復種提高了糧食產(chǎn)量,故選B。 （3）考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)最后一段中的By the end of 2017, the forest coverage rate among the regions in the project reached percent, pared to percent 40 years ago.可知,截至2017年底,%%,%,故選A。 （4）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第二段中的That39。s an area equivalent to the total of the Amazon rainforests.,第三段中的China is the source of a quarter of the planet39。s increase in forest area, despite having only percent of the world39。s vegetated (固定植被的)area,及第四段中的By the end of 2017, the forest coverage rate among the regions in the project reached percent, pared to percent 40 years ago.等信息可知,文中多次用數(shù)據(jù)對過去和現(xiàn)在進行對比來顯示中國和印度是全球綠化努力的領(lǐng)導者的,因此文章是通過對比的手法展開的,故選C。 【點評】本題考點涉及細節(jié)理解和推理判斷兩個題型的考查，是一篇新聞報道，考生需要準確掌握細節(jié)信息，并根據(jù)上下文進行邏輯推理，從而選出正確答案。10．閱讀短文，從每題所給的A、B、C和D四個選項中，選出最佳選項。 Here are some professions Americans consider to be the most honest.
