Europe is now the biggest market for organic food in the world, having grown by 25 percent a year over the past 10 years. Denmark’s agriculture minister is herself an organic farmer. The UK market for organic food grew by 55 percent in 2000, while the food market as a whole grew by only one percent. Yet only seven percent of British shoppers account for nearly 60 percent of organic sales. However popular the idea of organic farming may be, it is still an interest for only a few people.

So what makes the idea of organic farming popular? Organic farming means farming with natural materials, rather than with man-made fertilizers or pesticides(杀虫剂). Organic farmers rely on many methods — such as crop rotation (农作物的轮作) and the use of resistant（有抵抗力的）varieties, because they are necessary for organic farmers to compensate for the shortage of man-made chemicals.

Organic farming is often supposed to be safer than traditional farming for the environment. Yet after a long research on organic farming worldwide for a number of years, science continues to be against this opinion. The House of Commons committee on agriculture stated that, even with complete research work, it would fail to find any scientific evidence to prove “that any of claims made for organic farming is always true”.

However, the talk about the benefits of organic farming is going on. This is partly because many people depend on their individual farm, the soil, the weather, and so on.

1.The first paragraph mainly tells us _________.

A. organic farming has been performed only in Europe over the past 10 years.

B. governments of European countries have cared less about organic farming.

C. organic farming isn’t so popular as expected.

D. European countries need organic food more than the other countries in the world.

2.The underlined words “compensate for” in the second paragraph probably mean “_________”.

A. argue for　　　　 B. care for　　　　

C. make up for　　　　　 D. pay for

3. What can we know about organic farming?

A. It refers to farming with natural materials, instead of chemical fertilizers.

B. It refers to farming with chemical fertilizers rather than natural fertilizers.

C. It refers to farming with soil rather than any other thing.

D. It refers to growing crops with man-made fertilizers and pesticides.

4.According to the third paragraph, _________.

A. organic farming is safer than traditional farming for the environment.

B. the idea that organic farming is safer has not been proven by science.

C. organic farming is accepted by the UK’s House of Commons committee.

“China now has 350 million smokers, accounting for one-third of the world total. Chinese smokers now become addicted to nicotine at the age of 19, five years earlier than the average starting age of 24 in 1997,” a report said a couple of years ago.

Of the 1.1 billion smokers all over the world. more than 800 million are in developing countries. And as the world's largest developing country, China also has the largest number of smokers.

Some frightening facts start to appear when we examine who China’s smokers are. Of the 350 million addicts, more than 100 million are under the age of 18, while more than 50 percent of male teachers and doctors are smokers.

Such a high rate of addicts among male teachers and doctors will certainly have a bad impact on the young generation.

Teachers are usually expected to be role models for students who tend to consider whatever they do is right and follow their example. It is very likely that the number of teenage smokers will increase in the near future unless measures are taken to forbid teachers from smoking in front of their students or designate schools as no-smoking zones.

What is truly puzzling is why so many doctors smoke. They are aware of the results of the habit, such as high blood pressure and lung cancer. Their example only helps justify the addiction of so many others.

If educated people set an example by stopping smoking at least in public places. it would be much easier to drive home the notion that it is uncivilized to smoke in public places.

In China, there should also be a national law to ban smoking in public places. These would make a massive contribution to cutting the number of people in China who are smoking themselves into early grave.

1.Which of the following can serve as the best title for the passage?

A. Time to Kick the Habit

B. China Bans Smoking in Public Places

C. Smokers in China

D. Make People Aware of Smoking

2.In developing countries, China has the largest number of smokers, which covers　　 .

A. one-third of its total

B. one-eighth of its total

C. 1ess than half its total

D. more than half its total

3.In the writer's opinion, who have influenced young smokers, especially those under l8?

A. Parents.　 　　　　 B. Teachers only.

C. Advertisements.　 D. Teachers and doctors.

4.Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?

A. In China. those who get into the habit of smoking seem to be younger and younger.

B. More than half of the teachers and doctors are smokers in China.

C. The writer suggests schools should be designated as no-smoking zones.

D. It is of great benefit to forbid smoking in public places.
