The method, known as aeroponics, does not involve soil. Instead, plant roots hang in the air. The roots take in nutrients from a watery mist.Aeroponics is not well-known in Nigeria, but farmers there are working to make the technique more popular. IBiochemist Samson Ogbole is popularly known as Nigeria's smart farmer. He and his team are growing crops without soil at the technology-based farm they started three years ago ill Abeokuta. Ogbole says they are on a campaign to end seasonal food scarcity in Nigeria. "Because we are the ones controlling everything that the plant required, we are not depending on seasons. So it's no longer seasonal farming. It is just farming anytime of the year, meaning we can plant anytime of the year, and we can harvest anytime of the year."2 Il required financing of more than $ 180, 000. And some people in Abeokuta were very much against this non-（raditional method of farming. 1（ took a lot of effort to change people's minds about aeroponics.In Nigeria, about 30 million hectares of farmland is being used, instead of the 78.5 million hectares required for food security. In the north, only 49 percent of the land is fertile, a situation that worries traditional farmers. 3 Nutrients for the plants are controlled by a recycling system, greatly increasing productivity.Philippines is director general of Nigeria's National Agricultural Seeds Council. He says the government welcomes new farming methods. Ojo noted that with aeroponics, farmers can quickly increase planting materials. So, his group strongly supports the technology. The agricultural industry represents about 40 percent of Nigeria's economy. 4 For now, most farmers lack the technical knowledge to increase productivity. They also need access to high-quality seeds to guarantee better harvests. Technologically skilled farmers like Samson Ogbole are offering a new way forward.A. But setting up the cieroponic farm was not easy.B. The government wants to greatly expand this percentage.C. Many of the commercial aeroponic systems are relatively costly.D. Aeroponics, however, does not require traditional farm work or much land.E. Growing with aeroponics is not difficult and its benefits far out weigh any disadvantages.F. It could make a big difference in places where huge amounts of land have been made unfarmable.六、Summary Writing (本大题共1小题，共15分)8、【来源】202()年上海崇明县高三一模第71题15分20192020学年上海虹口区上海市复兴高级中学高二上学期期末第71题Directions: Read the following passage. Sununarize the main idea and the main point (s) of the passage in no more than 60 words, Use your own words as far as possible.Giving ThanksThis is the season for taking the time to reflect on what we're thankful for in life. Spending that time with friends and family to give thanks is what makes the holidays so special. But why should we limit it to just a few weeks in the years? Gratitude is a muscle we should strengthen year-round to make us healthier, happier humans and leaders.Emmons, through his research, found that grateful people reported feeling healthier, both mentally and physically. Specifically, those who were grateful were 25 percent happier than those who weren't. In the workplace, well-being is a crucial topic when it comes to preventing employee burnout and promoting engagement. Beyond the research that shows that employees who arc shown that they arc appreciated are more productive by 50 percent, caring for your employees* well-being is simply the right thing to do. Providing programs that support managing life's everyday challenged, offering fitness classes or implementing flexible work scheduled are just a few things that, when paired with gratitude, can lead to more productive, engaged and happier working professionals.Working in an ever-evolving, fast-paced industry, I am surrounded by ambitious people who are always striving for more and belter. Gratitude challenges you to reflect in the moment instead of always thinking about the future. It starts by paying attention to what's going on in your life, and that true self- awareness is a key ingredient to being successful in your career.Gratitude is a powerful tool for strengthening relationships, both at work and in your personal life. People who express (heir gratitude tend to be more willing to forgive others and therefore able to create long-lasting connections.The old saying goes "It's never too late to say you're sorry," but the same is true of gratitude. That's a gift worth celebrating 365 days a year.七、TranslationDirections (本大题共4小题，每小题2.5分，共10分)9、【来源】2020年上海崇明县高三一模第72题出于好奇，杰克向村民们打听了这座城堡的历史。(curiosity)10、【来源】2020年上海崇明县高三一模第73题翻译我们最好分析一下公司最近几年发展减缓的原因。(analyze)11、【来源】2020年上海崇明县高三一模第74题人人都该意识到，减少人类活动对环境的负面影响是很有必要的。(it)12、【来源】2020年上海崇明县高三一模第75题2.5分我决心已定，无论你怎么劝我，我也不会同意放弃这个通过夜以继日的努力工作才获得的机会。(however)八、Guided Writing （本大题共1小题,共25分）13、【来源】2020年上海崇明县高三一模第76题25分明启中学为了进一步丰富学校艺术节，决定在原有三个专场（分别是：书法专场、器乐专 场、歌曲专场）的基础上再增加一个专场，现向广大师生征求意见。假设你是该校学生林平，给 负责的王老师写一封电子邮件，表达你的意见。邮件内容须包括：增加的专场的名称；该专场的具体内容；增加该专场的理由。注：词数120到150；文中不得提及你的真实姓名或学校。I、 【答案】 has created;developing;that;to be grouped;where;connected;but;vhose;themselves;As long as;2、【答案】D;F;A;J;C;H;I;B;G;E;3、【答案】B;D;C;A;D;A;B;C;B;A:D;B;D;A;C;4、【答案】(1)B;c；B;(4) C;5、【答案】(1)B;D;C;6、【答案】B;C;(3) D;A;7、【答案】F;A;D;B;8、 【答案】We should show gratitude year-round as it is beneficial to both our personal andprofessional life.
