On a sudden, I found I was in danger of losing it all by enemies of several sorts. It was hardly possible to keep away from them. The goats and the hares which I called enemies, tasting the sweetness of the leaf, lay in it day and night. As soon as it came up, they ate it so close that it could get no time to shoot up into stem. I could do nothing but make a fence around it, which I did with a great deal of work because it required speed. However, as my land was small, suited to my crop, I got it totally well fenced in about three weeks’ time. Shooting some of the animals in the daytime, I set my dog to guard it at night, tying him up to a post at the gate, where he would stand and bark all night long. So in a little time the enemies gave up and left the place, and the corn grew very strong and well. But as the animals damaged it before, while my corn was in the leaf, the birds were likely to harm it now. Going along by the place to see how it grew, I saw my little crop filled with fowls, who stood, watching till I should be gone. I immediately let fly among them, for I always had my gun with me. I had no sooner shot than there rose up a little cloud of birds, which I had not seen at all, from among the corn itself. 14. Why were the goats and hares called enemies? A. Because they woke him up at night without a break. B. Because they damaged the fence over and over again. C. Because they often came to feed on the young corn. D. Because they always kept him away from the field. 15. How was the corn protected at night? 高一英语试卷第4页 共9 页 A. He shot some animals with a gun. B. He put a dog at the gate to watch it. C. He drove away animals by himself. D. He made a wooden fence around it. 16. What does the underlined “fowls” in the last paragraph refer to? A. Birds B. Hares C. Leaves D. Goats C Fish and dairy products are the best sources of Vitamin D, which can make it a struggle for those on a plant-based diet to get enough of it. Vitamin D helps protect our bones and keep muscles and teeth healthy. Now, a team of researchers have come up with a probable new source of Vitamin D: tomatoes gene-edited using CRISPR-Cas9 technology. If farmers and producers start to use the process, these tomatoes could help mend the matter of lacking Vitamin D, which the study said would affect 1 billion people in the world. “This exciting discovery not only improves human health but contributes to the environmental benefits connected with more plant-based diets — often linked with a challenge in getting some key vitamins and minerals widely found in animal products,” Guy Poppy, a professor of ecology at the University of Southampton, told the Science Media Centre in London. He didn’t take part in the research. Vitamin D pills are widely available in many countries, but Cathie Martin, a professor at the John Innes Centre in Norwich, England, said that eating a tomato was “so much better than taking a pill.” “I think that having a dietary source of Vitamin D in the form of a plant also means that you can get added benefits from eating tomatoes. We don’t eat enough fruits and vegetables anyway. A tomato is a good source of Vitamin C as well.” she said at a news meeting. “The gene-edited tomatoes look and taste the same as ordinary tomatoes, and gene editing won’t affect the plant’s growth, development or harvest.” said Jie Li, a researcher at the John Innes Centre. 17. What problem could the gene-edited tomatoes solve? A. Need for healthy diets. B. No enough Vitamin D. 高一英语试卷第5页 共9 页 C. High prices for food. D. Lack of new sources. 18. Which of the following is true according to Guy Poppy? A. The discovery improves animal products. B. The discovery causes new challenges. C. The discovery affects tomato production. D. The discovery is environment-friendly. 19. Why did Cathie Martin say eating tomatoes was better than taking pills? A. People can save lots of money. B. People can get more Vitamin D. C. People can receive extra benefits. D. People can protect their muscles. 20. What is the purpose of the text? A. To introduce a new discovery. B. To encourage a plant-based diet. C. To promote gene-edited tomatoes. D. To show benefits of Vitamin D. 第二节（共5 小题；每小题1.5 分，满分7.5 分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多 余选项。 Human has only one home — the Earth. But it isn’t just ours.
