阅读下面短文,根据短文内容回答下列各题。把答案写在每小题后横线上。

  One day Dickson Despommier, a public health professor at Columbia University, and his students developed an idea. They imagined people in cities growing crops inside a tall building. Tomatoes could grow on one floor of the skyscraper, potatoes on the next, small animals and fish on the floor above.

    This vertical (垂直的) farm could have space for restaurants and other places, like schools or hospitals. They could serve foods that are truly locally grown.

     But why would anyone want to build a farm indoors in a city? Dickson Despommier believes it will become necessary. The world needs to find places to produce enough food the growing population. Space, he says, is important.

The professor also points to problems of traditional farms. They use a lot of freshwater. Their fertilizer and animal waste can pollute water resources. And their growing seasons can be limited.

   But inside the vertical farm, crops could grow all year. And there would be no wind to blow a-soil. Farmers would not have to worry about too much or too little rain, or about hot summers, freezing winters or insects (昆虫). And without insects there would be no need for chemicals to kill them.
