19、this first session, which Ive called An Introduction to British Agriculture, will provide a helpful background to the farm visits youll be doing next week. With more of us living in urban environments, far removed from the countryside, it is easy to loose touch with the origins of the rural environm

20、ents that surround our towns and cities. I think I should start by emphasizing that agriculture still accounts for a very important part of this countrys economy. You might have a doubt about it, as we are so used to hearing the UKs society and economy described as being “industrial“ or even “post-i

21、ndustrial“. (1) But we mustnt let this blind us to the fact that agriculture and its supporting industries still account for around 26% of our Gross National Product. This figure is especially impressive, I think, when you bear in mind how very small a percentage of the UK workforce is employed in a

22、griculture. This is not a recent development you would have to go back to 1750 or so to find a majority of the workforce in this country working in agriculture. By the middle of the next century, in 1850 that is, it had fallen sharply to 10%, and then to 3% by the middle of the twentieth century. An

23、d now just 2% of the workforce contribute 20% of GNP. How is this efficiency achieved? Well, my own view is that it owes a great deal to a history, over the last 50 or 60 years, of intelligent support by the state, mainly taking the form of helping farmers to plan ahead. (2) Then the two other facto

24、rs I should mention, both very important, are the high level of training amongst the agricultural workforce. (3) And secondly, the recognition by farmers of the value of investing in technology is also a remarkable factor. Since World War II farming has largely remained on a secure footing to become

25、 a true business “agribusiness“. It has brought visible changes to the British countryside; the most noticeable being the removal of hedges to enlarge fields so that large-scale mechanised planting and harvesting can take place, aided by pesticides and fertilizers. A field that would once has taken

26、days to prepare, or sow, or harvest by hand, can now be achieved in hours. Such is the sophistication at the top end of the agricultural industry that computer aided technologies can “map“ fields; allowing farmers to deliver extra fertiliser, nutrients or seed depending on the soil quality in differ

27、ent parts of the terrain, and thereby optimize output. Now, although the UK is a fairly small country, the geology and climate vary a good deal from region to region. For our purpose today we can divide the country broadly into three. The region you will get to know the best, of course, is the north

28、, where we are at present. (5) The land here is generally hilly, and the soil thin. The climate up here, and youve already had evidence of this, is generally cool and wet. As you will see next week, the typical farm here in the North is a small, family-run concern, producing mainly wool and timber f

29、or the market. In some areas such as Scotland and northern England an “infield-outfield“ system of land use occurred. Fields nearest to a village were permanently used for cropping while those beyond were grazed. Beyond the “outfields“ there would be waste land for common pasture, or moorland in the

30、 case of upland areas. These waste lands in both highland and lowland situations, were the only source of new lands and were frequently reclaimed to form new enclosed farm holdings. If we contrast that with the Eastern region, the east is flatter and more low-lying, with fertile soils and a mixed cl

31、imate. Average farm-size is much bigger in the east, and farms are likely to be managed strictly on commercial lines. As for crops, well, the east is the UKs great cereal-producing region. However, increasingly significant areas are now also given over to high quality vegetables for supply direct to

32、 the supermarkets. The third broad region is the west, where its a different story again. The climate is warmer than that in the north and (7) much wetter than that in the east. The resulting rich soils in the west (8) provide excellent pasture, and the farms there are quite large, typically around

33、800 hectares. The main products are milk, cheese and meat. So, clearly, there are marked differences between regions. (9) But this does not prevent quite a strong sense of solidarity amongst the farming community as a whole, right across the country. This solidarity comes in part from the need to pr

34、esent a united front in dealing with other powerful interest-groups, such as government or the media. (10) It also owes something to the close cooperation between all the agricultural training colleges, through which the great majority of farmers pass at the beginning of their careers. And a third f

35、actor making for solidarity is the national structure of the Farmers Union, of which virtually all farmers are members. Finally, Id like to sum up this talk. I first emphasized the importance of agriculture in British economy and the factors that stablise its firm status, then I moved on to detail i

36、ts current situations by dividing the country into three regions, in the end, I explained the common phenomenon between regions. All right, that is all for today. I wish you would enjoy your farm visits next week. 【知识模块】 讲座 1 【正确答案】 26% 【试题解析】 细节题。从讲座内容 “But we mustnt let this blind us to the fact t

In todays session I will be sharing some of the findings of my project from last te

42、rm. First of all, a little bit about the background of the project. Our title, as you can see, is pretty straightforward: “car safety“. But these days theres a lot more to it than the usual injunctions about drinking and driving or speeding. I had been interested and horrified by several newspaper r

43、eports on what people call “road rage“. (1) For example the famous incident of a man getting out of his car in a car park and hitting the driver of a van who had overtaken him earlier. It seemed to me that there were almost as many serious problems when cars were parked, i.e., cars were stationary,

44、as when they were travelling at 90 miles an hour. So I decided to make this the focus of the project. Previously, according to a regional survey conducted by Drs. Arnold P. Nerenberg and R. Jerry Adams, over half of drivers in the USA suffer from road rage. The average number of incidents per road r

45、ager is 27. That means that most of us will encounter road ragers many times in our lives. Road rage can lead to injuries or even death. The U.S. Highway Safety Office has testified to Congress that tens of thousands of accidents each year can be linked directly to aggressive driving, including road

46、 rage, and it is now a leading cause of death for young children. For our research we depended mainly on talking to individuals, asking them questions rather than using written questionnaires. We stopped people at a selected garage on the motorway over a two-day period, and asked them questions abou

47、t what theyd observed or experienced themselves. Our respondents were both men and women, but the women were just slightly in the majority. We were pleased by the publics willingness to stop and chat to us. in the end we talked to a total of 135 drivers over those two days. So what were our findings

48、? Well, as you can see, 93% of respondents had had some kind of problems. A surprisingly large percentage (2) 24% had had their cars damaged in some way, but the main type of incident was being shouted at 79% had experienced that. 15% had experienced violence on their own persons. Theyd actually bee

49、n hit by someone. The police tended only to be informed when there was physical violence involved. So what strategies had people developed to ensure their own safety? Lets have a look at the figures here. Well, first of all, it was quite striking that there were often distinct answers from the men and the women. It was mainly women,
