浙江省杭州市2017届九年级英语初中毕业升学文化模拟考试试卷

阅读理解
    When we think of food farming we usually think of green fields in the country, outside the city. Sam Chee works on a very different type of farm, in the center of the Canadian city of Toronto. “We grow fruit, vegetables and herbs,” says Sam. “But not many people know the farm is here. You can't see it from the street. We're on top of an office building, 50 meters above the ground.”
    Rooftop farming is becoming popular in cities like Toronto, New York and London. The roofs of buildings are often just wasted space, but this space can be used for growing good fresh food, right in the middle of the city. Sam explains how it works. “We grow everything in big boxes—there are hundreds of them. We catch rainwater to water the plants when the weather is dry.”
    The rooftop farm where Sam works belongs to a restaurant called Green Garden, on the ground floor of the building. The farm produces about half the restaurant's fruit and vegetables. Sam believes that the rooftop farm is what makes Green Garden special. “We help to keep food production local. We don't need to transport this food from anywhere and that saves energy. It's better for the environment.”
    The food from the rooftop is fresher too. “When the fruit and vegetables are ripe we can pick them and use them right away. They taste better when they're really fresh,” says Sam. “I hope that there will be more rooftop farms in the city soon. It could be the farming of the future.”
(1)、Green Garden's rooftop farm is    .
A、the only one in the world B、in the middle of a small town C、one of many in cities around the world D、near the countryside of a city
(2)、The fruit and vegetables Sam grows are    .
A、used in a restaurant in the same building B、sold to restaurants to cook dishes for people C、taken to a restaurant in another building D、given to people who work in the building
(3)、Sam thinks the food from the rooftop is better than that bought from other places because    .
A、it is much cheaper and fresher B、it tastes better and is better for the environment C、it uses space which was being wasted D、it can't be bought in the local stores
(4)、According to the passage, which of the following is RIGHT?
A、The farm is on the top of a teaching building, 50 meters above the ground. B、The plants are watered by collected rainwater when necessary. C、You can find more rooftop farms in the country than in the city. D、When they pick the fruit and vegetables, they won't use them at once.
(5)、What is the main purpose of the passage?
A、To describe what rooftop farming is by giving an example. B、To describe why rooftop farming has become very popular in Canada. C、To tell the story of the man who first started rooftop farming. D、To encourage people to build as many rooftop farms as possible.

A little weed (野草) grows in a field. All around it stand tall and beautiful flowers. The weed didn't like them, because its own flower was tiny and 1 .

Children like to play in the 2 all year round. And spring is their favorite season because they can pick beautiful flowers. They come and go, singing and laughing.

It made the weed feel 5 " Am I really useless?" It asked itself." Why was I even put on this earth?" With all the nearby flowers gone, the weed felt lonely. Even though it didn't like them, it liked having them around.

The wind of 6 blew over the field, and it was soon followed by the snow of winter. The weed stood alone in the wild. Just then, it noticed some birds flying high above the field.

" We' re hungry!" They said." Where can we find 7 ?"

The weed felt sorry for the 8 birds and said to them," Down here! I have delicious seeds(种子) that you can eat!" The weed scattered(撒播) its little seeds across the 9 . The birds ate the seeds and 10 the weed." You' re so kind!" They said as they flew away. The weed was happy to help its new friends.

Recently, there is a group of 11 lovely children from Nanning in southern China. They went on a {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (特别) trip to Harbin, and everyone on the Internet just loves them. People call them the "little tangerines (砂糖橘) " because of their bright orange clothes, and also because their hometown, Guangxi, is known for g{#blank#}2{#/blank#} lots of oranges.
