8.National legislators from Heilongjiang province,which is China's principal producer of non-genetically-modified soybeans,are calling for a law to set up a special zone where the planting and processing of GM plants is prohibited.Deputies to the country's top legislature hope such a law would preserve ecological diversity,benefit farmers who plant non-GM soybeans and avoid"possible contamination"of the soybean crop by GM plants.The size of the proposed special zone would restore the province's soybean growing acreage to its 2010 level of 4.3 million hectares,said national lawmaker Tan Zhijuan.Tan said universities in Heilongjiang and beyond should have first call on the non-GM soybean products coming out of the special zone.
"Heilongjiang,China's largest producer of non-GM soybeans,has seen its planting acreage downsized to a tipping point of 1.4 million hectares,"said Tan,who is a veteran agricultural specialist."This represents a drop of a staggering 66 percent in five years following the influx of much cheaper GM imports."Nationwide,China imported 81.7 million tons of soybeans-mostly GM ones-last year,which meant more than 80 percent of its soybean consumption was met by imports,said Tan."China has the world's most diversified wild soybean resources,"Tan said.As a responsible country,China must protect living genetic material including seeds and tissue used for plant breeding,preservation and research,Tan said.
Although the planting of GM soybeans has not been detected so far in Heilongjiang province,there are risks that GM seeds might find their way to the fields,for example,through leakage from road transportation,Tan warned.
She said the key to establishing the non-GM soybean protection zon e would be to build up an industrial chain that streamlines the planting,processing and sales of non-GM soybeans.This non-GM industrial chain will differentiate itself from that for GM products and improve the competitive edge of the domestic soybean industry to target its niche market,Tan said.

分析 黑龙江是我国最大的非转基因大豆种植省,然而近几年,该省的非转基因大豆种植面积已缩减至140万公顷.因此省人大代表提出议案,建议立法设立特别保护区,严禁种植与加工转基因作物.人大代表希望通过这项法案,保护生态多样性,惠及种植非转基因大豆的农民,并避免转基因作物"污染"其他大豆植株".
解答 21.B.主旨大意题.文章第一段内容介绍的是"黑龙江省人大代表提出议案,建议立法设立特别保护区,严禁种植与加工转基因作物.人大代表希望通过这项法案,保护生态多样性,惠及种植非转基因大豆的农民,并避免转基因作物"污染"其他大豆植株".由此可知,该段的主要内容应是"呼吁立法设立特别保护区,严禁种植与加工转基因作物".故选B.
22.C.词义猜测题.根据后面的句子thereare risks that GM seeds might find their way to the fields,forexample,through leakage from road transportation,Tan warned.可知,谭志娟警告道,转基因种子仍有可能在陆路运输中漏出或因其他原因落入土壤.由此可知,前面的句子意为:虽然黑龙江省尚未发现种植转基因大豆,所以该下划词的含义与discover同义.故选C.
23.B.推理判断题.根据第三段内容可知,黑龙江是我国最大的非转基因大豆种植省.然而近几年,该省的非转基因大豆种植面积已缩减至140万公顷,也就是说,近五年来,随着廉价的转基因大豆进口,非转基因大豆的种植规模已骤降66%."由此可知,人大代表谭志娟对于黑龙江省目前的非转基因大豆种植情况表示担忧和谨慎.故选B.
