Deputy Agriculture Secretary Kathleen Merrigan sees an epidemic(流行病 ) sweeping across Americas farmland. It has little to do with

29、the usual challenges, such as flood, rising fuel prices and crop-eating insects. The countrys farmers are getting older, and there are fewer people standing in line to take their place. National agricultural census(普查 ) figures show that the fastest-growing group of farmers is the part over 65. Merr

30、igan is afraid the average age will be even higher when the 2012 statistics are completed. Merrigan, a former college professor, is making stops at universities across the country in hopes of encouraging more students to think about careers in agriculture. Aside from trying to stop the graying of Am

31、ericas farmers, her work is made tougher by a recent blog posting that put agriculture at No. 1 on a list of “useless” college degrees. Top federal agriculture officials are talking about the posting, and it has the attention of agirucltural organizations across the country. “There couldnt be anytin

32、g thats more incorrect,” Merrigan said. “We know that there arent enough qualified graduates to fill the jobs that are out there in American agriculture.” In addition, a growing world population that some experts predict will require 70% more food production by 2050, she said. “I truly believe were

33、at a golden age of agriculture. Global demand is at an all-time record high, and global supplies are at all-time record lows,” said Matt Rush, director of the Texas Farm Bureau. “Production costs are going to be valuable enough that younger perople are going to have the opportunity to be involved in

34、 agriculture.” The Department of Agriculture has programs aimed at developing more farmers and at increasing interest in locally grown food. The National Young Farmers Coalition has also been pushing for state and federal policy changes to make it easier for new farmers. Ryan Best, president of Futu

35、re Farmers of America, has been living out of a suitcase, traveling the ocuntry and visiting with high school students about careers in agriculture. The 21-year-old Best hopes his messagethat this is a new time in agriculture-will motivate the enxt generation to turn around the statistics. “Never be

36、fore have we had the innovations(创新 ) in technology which have led to agriculture in this country being the msot efficient it has ever been,” he said. “Theres really a place for everybody to fit in.” 59. What is the new challenge to American agriculture? A. Fewer and older farmers. B. Higher fuel pr

37、ices. C. More natural disasters D. Lower agricultural output. 60. Why is Merrigan visiting universities across the country? A. To draw federal agriculture officials attention. B.

A. the government will cover production costs B. global food supplies will be even lower C. investment in agriculture will be profitable D. America will increase its food export 62. What d

39、o the underlined words “to turn around the statistics” in the last paragraph mean? A. To re-analyze the result of the national census. B. To increase agricultural production. C. To bring down the average age of farmers. D. To invest more in agriculture. C. Meddical drugs sometimes cause more damage

40、than they cure. One solution to this problem is toput the drugs inside a capsule, protecting them from the bodyand the body from themuntil they can be released at just the right spot. There are lots of ways to trigger(引发 ) this release, including changing temperature, acidity, and so on. But trigger

41、s can come with their own risks- burns, for example. Now, researchers in Califonia have designed what could be a harmless trigger to date: shining near-infrared light (NIR，近红外钱 ) on the drug in the capsule. The idea of suing light to liberate the drug in the capsule isnt new. Researchers around the

42、globe have developed polymers(聚合物 ) and other materials that begin to break down when they absorb either ultraviolet(UV，紫外线 ) or visible light. But tissues also readilyabsorb UV and visible light, which emans the drug release can be triggered only near the skin, where the light can reach the capsule

43、. NIR light largely passes through tissues, so researchers have tried to use it as a trigger. But few compounds(化合物 ) absorb NIR well and go thourh chemical changes. That changed last year when Adah Almutairi, a chemist at the Unviersity of California, San Diego, reported that she and her colleagues

44、 had designed a polymer that breaks down when it absorbs NIR light. Their polymer used a commercially available NIR-absorbing group called o-nitroberizyl(ONB). When they catch the light, ONB groups fall off the polymer, leading to its breakdown. But ONB is only a so-so NIR absorber, and it could be

45、poisonous to cells when it separates from the polymer. So Almutairi and her colleagues reported creating a new material for capsules that;s even better. This one consists of a long chain fo compounds called cresol groups linked in a polymer. Cresol contains reactive(易反应的 ) components that make it hi

46、ghly unstable in its polymeric form, a feature Almutairi and her colleagues use to their advantage. After polymerizing the cresols, they cap each reactive component with a light-absorbing compound called Bhc. When the Bhcs absorb NIR light, the reactive component with a light-absorbing compound call

47、ed Bhc. When the Bhcs absorb NIR light, the reactive groups are exposed and break the long polymer into two short chains. Shining additional light continues this breakdown, potentially releasing any drugs in the capsule. Whats more, Almutairi says, Bhc is 10 times better at absorbing NIR than is ONB and is not poisonous to cells. 63. According to the passage, which of the following could be the best trigger? A. Temperature change B. NIR light. C. Acidit
