21、rallysupportingfamilyfarmsinsteadoflargefarms”和“Goldisoneofagrowingnumberofshoppersbuyingintotheorganictrend”可知D项正确。2解析:选C细节理解题。由文章第二段Gold所说的话“Thefoodisfreeofpesticides,andyouaregenerallysupportingfamilyfarmsinsteadoflargefarms.Andmoreoftenthannotitislocallygrownandseasonal,soitismoretasty.”可知C项正确。3
22、解析:选A词义猜测题。由短文最后一句可以看出,由于人们对有机食品越来越感兴趣,其需求量越来越大。4解析:选A标题归纳题。有机食品的需求量上升,使有机食品市场成为快速增长的市场。所以,“OrganicFoodHealthy,orJustfortheWealthy?”是比较恰当的标题。5解析:选D细节理解题。由第二段“Whenhesurfacedtothetopofthewater,thepointoftheboardwasheadingtowardhiseye.”可知,他在冲浪的时候,伤到了眼睛。6解析:选A细节理解题。由倒数第二段的“What?Iasked,confusedbyhisreaso
