to do with the usual challenges，such as flood，rising fuel prices and crop­eating insects.The countrys farmers are getting older，and there are fewer people standing in line to take their place.National agricultural census(普查)figures show that the fastest­growing group of farmers is the part over 65.Merrigan is afraid the average age will be even higher when the statistics are completed.Merrigan，a former college professor，is making stops at universities across the country in hopes of encouraging more students to think about careers in agriculture.Aside from trying to stop the graying of Americas farmers，her work is made tougher by a recent blog posting that put agriculture at No.1 on a list of“uselesscollege degrees.Top federal agriculture officials are talking about the posting，and it has the attention of agricultural organizations across the country.“There couldnt be anything thats more incorrect，Merrigan said.“We know that there arent enough qualified graduates to fill the jobs that are out there in American agriculture.In addition，a growing world population that some experts predict will require 70% more food production by 2050，she said.“I truly believe were at a golden age of agriculture.Global demand is at an all­time record high，and global supplies are at all­time record lows，said Matt Rush，director of the Texas Farm Bureau.“Production costs are going to be valuable enough that younger people are going to have the opportunity to be involved in agriculture.The Department of Agriculture has programs aimed at developing more farmers and at inereasing interest in locally grown food.The National Young FarmersCoalition has also been pushing for state and federal policy changes to make it easier for new farmers.Ryan Best，president of Future Farmers of America，has been living out of a suitcase，traveling the country and visiting with high school students about careers in agriculture.The 21­year­old Best hopes his messagethat this is a new time in agriculturewill motivate the next generation to_turn_around_the_statistics.“Never before have we had the innovations(创新)in technology which have led to agriculture in this country being the most efficient it has ever been，he said.“Theres really a place for everybody to fit in.36What is the new challenge to American agriculture?AFewer and older farmers.BHigher fuel prices.CMore natural disasters.DLower agricultural output.解析：细节理解题。根据第一段第2句可知B、C、D三项均为往常的困难，而The countrys farmers are getting older，and there are fewer people standing in line to take their place.一句说明新的困难是农民老龄化而且缺乏后备军。答案：A37Why is Merrigan visiting universities across the country?ATo draw federal agriculture officialsattention.BTo select qualified agriculture graduates.CTo clarify a recent blog posting.DTo talk more students into farming careers.解析：细节理解题。根据第二段第1句可知Merrigan教授走访全国各地的大学是希望鼓励更多学生考虑从事农业，选D。答案：D38According to Matt Rush，American agriculture will provide opportunities for younger people because_.Athe government will cover production costs.Bglobal food supplies will be even lowerCinvestment in agriculture will be profitableDAmerica will increase its food export解析：推理判断题。根据第五段Matt Rush 所说的话可知，全球需求出现历史新高而全球供给出现低潮，农业处于黄金时代。年青人对生产本钱的投入将会很有价值。由此可推断年青人对农业生产的投资将会获益。答案：C39What do the underlined words“to turn around the statisticsin the last paragraph mean?ATo re­analyze the result of the national census.BTo increase agricultural production.CTo bring down the average age of farmers.DTo invest more in agriculture.解析：词义理解题。turn around the statistics 意为“扭转或改变统计，而完成的统计说明农民平均年龄要超过65岁。鼓励年青的学生从事农业就是要降低平均年龄。答案：C
