[单项选择]Are genetically modified crops an environmental dream come true or a disaster in the making Scientists are looking for answers.
The world seems increasingly divided into those who favor genetically modified (GM) foods and those who fear them. Advocates assert that growing genetically altered crops can be kinder to the environment and that eating foods from those plants is perfectly safe. And, they say, genetic engineering—which can induce plants to grow in poor soils or to produce more nutritious foods— will soon become an essential tool for helping to feed the world’s burgeoning population. Skeptics contend that GM crops could pose unique risks to the environment and to health—risks too troubling to accept smoothly. Taking that view, many European countries are restricting the planting and importation of GM agricultural products. Much of the debate hinges on perceptions of safety. But what exactly does recent scientific research say about the hazards The answers, too often lost i
A. Being easy to survive.
B. Bigger production than traditional plants.
C. Enriching our food.
D. Benefiting the environment.

[单项选择]Some crops are relatively high yielders and could be planted in preference to others to ______ the food supply.
A. enhance
B. curb
C. disrupt
D. heighten

[填空题]One of the purposes of having crops genetically modified is to make it more delicious.

[单项选择]　　Given that 8 percent of food crops grows faster on farms using groundwater than the aquifers are replenished, and many large rivers are so heavily diverted that they do not reach the sea for much of the year, researchers believe freshwater sources--underground aquifers and rivers--are stressed. Better management of soil and water and creative cropping patterns can boost production from rainfall-watered cropland, but the heaviest burden will fall on irrigated land. At present, most farmers irrigate their crops by channeling water down their fields in parallel furrows. 　　One alternative, drip systems, enables farmers to deliver water directly to the plants’’ roots drop by drop, nearly eliminating waste by distributing water at low pressure through a network of perforated plastic tubing installed on or below the surface of the soil, where it then emerges through small holes at a slow but steady pace. Because the plants enjoy an ideal moisture environment, drip irrigation usually offers
A. most North Americans would be unlikely to shift their diets simply in order to accommodate the exigencies of water conservation
B. the gains provided by diets with less water-intensive production would likely be less useful in areas with greater aquifer resources
C. people in Asia and certain European countries are dependent on meat-products and could not do without them
D. diets with less water-intensive production tend to be less healthy than those with more water-intense production
E. governments of certain countries would be unlikely to promote programs for diet change given their possible negative effect on those countries’’ economies
