(2025·广东茂名高二检测)As the Chinese saying goes, a seed can change the world; a variety can benefit a nation.
Zhang Daorong, who has spent the last 26 years 1 13 new varieties of wheat and contributing to national food security, has done both. The 50-year-old, who is called the “mother of wheat”, is a 2 at the Xiangyang Academy of Agricultural Sciences in Xiangyang City.
The research into new varieties requires strict standards and 3 experiments. “The first 4 is to find suitable parental types for a specific cultivation purpose. Then we try a hybrid combination,” Zhang explained. “After several generations of 5 and selection, and when characteristics remain stable, we 6 a two-year process of yield testing and disease identification. ” And after several more rounds of tests, a(n) 7 for evaluation and approval can be made for market production.
“Generally speaking, a good new 8 should produce high yields, have stable production, and 9 good resistance to bad conditions,” she added. “Besides, it also should be 10 by the market. ” Zhang added that the team 11 70,000 to 80,000 seedlings (幼苗) each year. All year round they were busy with 12 experiments on the growth of the new seedlings and making records and analyses.
“Agricultural research work is 13 and complicated. Sometimes your efforts do not 14 . All we can do then is think more, discuss more and find 15 on the land,” she said.

答案： 语篇导读 本文是一篇新闻报道。文章讲述了中国的“小麦之母”张道荣和她的团队努力拼搏，培育新小麦品种的事迹。
1.B 根据空后的13 new varieties of wheat及下文内容可推知，是研发小麦。advertise“做广告”；develop“开发”；discuss“讨论”；observe“观察”。故选B。
2.C 根据空前的“who has spent the last 26 years 1 13 new varieties of wheat and contributing to national food security”可推知，张道荣是一位研究小麦的研究员。journalist“记者”；teacher“老师”；researcher“研究者”；manager“经理”。故选C。
3.A 根据空前的strict standards可推知，空处与“严格的标准”呼应，应该是精确的实验。precise“精确的”；efficient“高效的”；simple“简单的”；modest“谦虚的；谦逊的”。故选A。
4.C 根据空后的to find suitable parental types for a specific cultivation purpose并结合下文内容和常识可推知，找到适合特定培养目的的亲本类型是培育新品种的第一步。way“方法”；attempt“尝试”；step“步骤”；question“问题”。故选C。
5.D 根据空后的selection以及常识可推知，培育新品种需要经过（植物）几代的试验和选择，才能选出最优的。encouragement“鼓励”；support“支持”；management“管理”；experiment“实验”。故选D。
6.A 根据空后的a two-year process of yield testing and disease identification并结合上文提到的选出最优品种可推知，接下来就应该开始产量测试和疾病鉴定。begin“开始”；continue“继续”；follow“跟着”；repeat“重复”。故选A。
7.B 根据空前的And after several more rounds of tests可推知，几轮测试合格后，可以申请评估。practice“练习”；application“应用；申请”；declaration“宣布”；invitation“邀请”。故选B。
8.D 根据第二段第一句“Zhang Daorong, who has spent the last 26 years 1 13 new varieties of wheat and contributing to national food security, has done both.”可知，此处是指一个新的种类。environment“环境”；machine“机器”；farmland“农田”；variety“种类”。故选D。
9.C 根据空后的good resistance to bad conditions可推知，新品种要表现出良好的抵抗力。produce“生产”；improve“提高；改善”；show“展示”；develop“发展”。故选C。
10.A 根据空后的by the market并结合常识可推知，新品种需要得到市场的认可，所以是被接受。accept“接受”；gain“获得”；seize“抓住”；bring“带来”。故选A。
11.D 根据空后的“70,000 to 80,000 seedlings(幼苗) each year”并结合上文提到她的团队培育新品种的事实可推知，每年要种植7万至8万株幼苗来进行研究。water“浇水”；buy“购买”；protect“保护”；plant“种植”。故选D。
12.C 根据空后的experiments on the growth of the new seedlings and making records and analyses可知，此处指进行实验。report“报道”；design“设计”；conduct“进行；实施”；study“学习；研究”。故选C。
13.B 根据空后的complicated并结合上文提到他们一次又一次的实验可知，农业研究是艰巨且复杂的。normal“正常的”；tough“艰难的”；varied“各种各样的；形形色色的”；specific“具体的”。故选B。
14.D 根据空前句“Agricultural research work is 13 and complicated.”可知，农业研究的特点是艰巨且复杂的，这一特点可能导致有时研究人员的付出得不到回报。end up“结束”；run out“用完”；break up“破裂”；pay off“回报”。故选D。
15.A 根据上文提到的有时付出可能没有回报，再结合空前的“think more, discuss more”可知，培育出优质的新品种只能多思考多讨论，在土地上找到答案。answer“回答”；comfort“安慰”；dream“梦想”；courage“勇气”。故选A。
