To take the apple as a forbidden fruit is the most unlikely story the Christians (基督教徒) have ever cooked up. For them, the forbidden fruit from Eden is evil (邪恶的) . So when Columbus brought the tomato back from South America, a land mistakenly considered to be Eden, everyone jumped to the obvious conclusion. Wrongly taken as the apple of Eden, the tomato was shut out of the door of Europeans.
What made it particularly terrifying was its similarity to the mandrake, a plant that was thought to have come from Hell(地狱) . What earned the plant its awful reputation was its roots which looked like a dried- up human body occupied by evil spirits. Though the tomato and the mandrake were quite different except that both had bright red or yellow fruit, the general population considered them one and the same, too terrible to touch.
Cautious Europeans long ignored the tomato, and until the early 1700smost of the Western people continued to drag their feet. In the 1880s, the daughter of a well- known plant expert wrote that the most interesting part of an afternoon tea at her father’s house had been the “introduction of this wonderful new fruit—or is it a vegetable? ”As late as the twentieth century some writers still classed tomatoes with mandrakes as an“evil fruit”.
But in the end tomatoes carried the day. The hero of the tomato was an American named Robert Johnson, and when he was publicly going to eat the tomato in 1820, people journeyed for hundreds of miles to watch him drop dead. “What are you afraid of? ”he shouted. “I’ll show you fools that these things are good to eat!”Then he bit into the tomato. Some people fainted. But he survived and, according to a local story, set up a tomato- canning factory.
1. The tomato was shut out of the door of early Europeans mainly because　　　 .　
A. it made Christians evil　　　　　　　　　　　　　　B. it was the apple of Eden
C. it came from a forbidden land　　　　　　　　D. it was religiously unacceptable
2. What can we infer from the underlined part in Paragraph 3?
A. The process of ignoring the tomato slowed down.
B. There was little progress in the study of the tomato.
C. The tomato was still refused in most western countries.
D. Most western people continued to get rid of the tomato.
3. What is the main reason for Robert Johnson to eat the tomato publicly?
A. To make himself a hero.
B. To remove people’s fear of the tomato.
C. To speed up the popularity of the tomato.
D. To persuade people to buy products from his factory.
4. What is the main purpose of the passage?
A. To challenge people’s fixed concepts of the tomato.
B. To give an explanation to people’s dislike of the tomato.
C. To present the change of people’s attitudes to the tomato.
D. To show the process of freeing the tomato from religious influence.

【2022·江西省赣中四校高三其次次联考】
Studies show farmland in Africa is often lacking in important nutrients.But researchers say a combination of farming methods may help.
Researchers wonder how to increase production without necessarily clearing more land to grow additional crops.American researchers say that can happen with greater use of an agricultural system called perenniation.It mixes food crops with trees and perennial plants—those that return year after year.
Soil scientist John Reganold says，“One of the major problems is that the soils are fairly poor in most of the regions.So how do you grow food on poor soils？There have to be food production systems that can build the soil and improve the yield.”
Mr Reganold says poor soil may have resulted from years of weathering that washed away many nutrients.He says some farmers may have done more harm than good.
“They have been actually using farming practices where they’re not putting in organic matter.They’re not putting in fertilizers.They can’t afford those things.And it just runs the soil down.So they’re worsening the situation.”
The scientist says the word perenniation defines three systems that are already used in Africa.The oldest of the three is called evergreen agriculture.This is where farmers plant trees with their crops.Farmers in Africa have been doing this for sixty years，but it seems to be growing in popularity.
The method is gaining widespread use in countries such as Niger，Burkina Faso，Malawi and Zambia.The trees are planted among maize (玉米)，millet or sorghum crops.They not only add nitrogen (氮) to the soil through their roots，but also through their leaves when they fall off and break down.At other times of the year，the trees can protect plants from strong sunlight.
John Reganold says he knows of one woman who has had great success with perenniation.
“She’s a grandmother in her fifties.Her name is Rhoda Mang’yana and she started using this system about twenty years ago.And her yields initially were about a ton of maize.Now with a good year she gets four tons per hectare，four times what she was getting.”
1．The purpose of the passage is to________.
A．tell people how to increase production
B．introduce an agricultural system in Africa
C．introduce the oldest farming method in Africa
D．tell us how to prevent soil being poor
2．What does the underlined word “weathering” in Paragraph 4 most probably mean?
A．Being exposed to wind and rain.
B．Growing different crops.
C．Being polluted severely.
D．Being ploughed improperly.
3．According to the passage，which of the following statements is WRONG?
A．Perenniation mixes food crops with trees and perennial plants.
B．Poor soil is the main problem in increasing food production.
C．Farmers may be more to blame for the present situation.
D．American researchers first invented perenniation.
4．Evergreen agriculture is popular with the farmers mainly because it________.
A．can build the soil and improve the yield
B．can provide more wood as well
C．is the easiest method to carry out
D．is used for a long time
5．Why does John Reganold mention Rhoda Mang’yana?
A．To show the method is very popular in Africa.
B．Because she is an expert at farming production.
C．To prove the farming method is effective.
D．Because she produced more grains than anyone else in the country.
