For many years, people in American cities have depended on farmers in rural areas to grow fruits and vegetables. (32)But now, a new generation of farmers is beginning to plant crops in urban areas. Sean Conroe is a college student. Amber Banks is a teacher. They both grew up farming and gardening. Now they want to start a farm in the middle of Seattle, Washington. Sean Conroe created a website to get volunteers and donations. (33) Within a week, they were offered a plot of land between two houses. He says 20 volunteers have worked for six weekends to turn the grassy land into a farm. They call their project Alleycat Acres. (34)The Alleycats have harvested about 90 kilograms of produce so far. They have donated most of it to local food banks that feed hungry people in Seattle. One of the goals of the urban farm is to show city people the joys of growing food. The Alleycats invite school groups to the farm to help out. And Amber Banks says they want the people who get food donations to learn how to work the soil. Sean Conroe says Alleycat Acres is expanding to other empty areas of Seattle. So are a lot of other urban farming groups. Seattle has declared 2010 "The Year of Urban Agriculture." But the growth of these farms is limited. That is because Seattle, like a lot of other cities, has restrictions on urban farms. (35)Now the City Council is considering changing those laws.
32. What can we learn about the new generation of farmers from the passage?
33. What happened after Sean Conroe issued the information on the Internet?
34. What does the speaker say about Alleycat Acres?
35. What is the City Council of Seattle planning to do?
选项
A、They offer all kinds of food to banks.
B、They provide relief for victims of famine.
C、They produce a great deal of textile goods.
D、They accept the help from the local food bank.
答案
B
解析
推理判断题。短文中提到,到目前为止,Alleycats已经收获了大约90千克农产品,他们将大部分捐赠给当地的食物银行。供西雅图的饥饿人口食用。由此可以推断.Alleycats为西雅图的饥饿人口减轻了负担。
