题目内容
16.As the leaves change color in autumn,students return to school.As a frost covers the ground each night,we are busy planting vegetables in northern Wisconsin.Five public school districts in northern Wisconsin recently built high tunnels(隧道)for the winter growing season.The schools'high tunnels,made of metal frame and a plastic covering the raised beds,keep plants warm enough to extend the growing season through the winter and allow an earlier spring planting.Our very short growing season occurs almost entirely during the summer vacation months.This makes the high tunnels necessary in allowing students to gain experience of growing and marketing produce in a cold climate where production at this scale couldn't otherwise happen during the school year.
During the summer,the high tunnels on school grounds still need to remain there.We developed the Agripreneur program(Agriculture+Entrepreneur)to support students'work in the high tunnels during months when students are are on holidays.This program was made possible by a farm and a university.Each summer,a pair of students will be hired from every high school to care for and sell a single crop in exchange for instruction from professional lo-cal farmers,growing experience,and a salary.
The Agripreneur program appeared for its first season during the summer of 2015.Students grew tomatoes that were sold to community members,local restaurants and the school cafeterias(食堂).The program met its goal of increasing the number of local vegetables consumed,both within the region and in school lunches.Sales to school cafeterias will continue through the winter as the high tunnels'change to nutrient root vegetables,all grown by students.
We may live in winter,but with the recent addition of these school high tunnels,our students are able to eat the freshest local vegetables available-even during the coldest months.

分析 短文主要介绍了在威斯康星北部的学校建立起高高的隧道来种植蔬菜,这样学生就能在寒冷的冬季吃到新鲜的蔬菜.
解答 32.A,细节理解题,根据句子The schools'high tunnels,made of metal frame and a plastic covering the raised beds,keep plants warm enough to extend the growing season through the winter and allow an earlier spring planting.可知,这些高高的隧道其实就是来让植物保暖,以延长其生长季节,即温室,故答案为A.
33.C,细节理解题,根据句子Our very short growing season occurs almost entirely during the summer vacation months.This makes the high tunnels necessary in allowing students to gain experience of growing and marketing produce in a cold climate 可知,这些隧道建在学校区域是因为那儿的植物生长季节很短,故答案为C.
34.D,细节理解题,根据短文中We developed the Agripreneur program(Agriculture+Entrepreneur)to support students'work in the high tunnels during months when students are are on holidays可知,"农业企业项目"是为了支持学生在假期的工作,故答案为D.
35.D,标题归纳题,短文主要介绍了在威斯康星北部的学校建立起高高的隧道来种植蔬菜,这样学生就能在寒冷的冬季吃到新鲜的蔬菜,主要介绍了一种新的种植方式,因此最好的标题是D选项.
