錄比他們的厲害。故選A。8．Whatcanweinferfromthepassage?A．Jutras'shobbyismakingcabinets.B．Jutrasisaimedtosetanewworldrecordinabushelgourd.C．JutraswillworkattheNewYorkBotanicalGarden.D．Jutraswillfeedmorepeople.解析：選B推理推斷題。依據(jù)文章最終兩段可知，朱特拉下一步想在bushelgourd這方面創(chuàng)建新的世界紀(jì)錄。故選B。CThecropsweproduceintheUKandaroundtheworldcouldchangewithclimate.Theweatherisanimportantpartinfarmingandchangesintemperaturewillstronglyaffectcropgrowth.FortheUK,temperaturerisesarelikelytomeanthecropsnormallygrowinginthesouthofthecountrywillbeabletobegrownfurthernorth.TheUNbelievestherewillbeashiftnorthwardsofbetween200and300kilometersforeverydegreeofwarming.ThiswouldbesimilartothesouthofEnglandin2060,havingthekindofweathertheLoireValley,inFrance,experiencesnow.Duetoanincreaseindroughtandheatwaves,thetypesofcropsgrownintheUKwillhavetochange,whichdoesn'thavetobeabadthingforus.Productswhichhaven'tbeenfarmedoverherebefore,suchassweetcorn,sunflowers,andmaizeforcereals,couldallprovidenewbusinessforfarmers—certainlyinthesouth-east.However,iffarmingpracticesdochangeinthiscountry,procedureswillhavetobeputinplacebeforehandasintroducingsomethingnewoffarmlandinvolvesalotofpreparation.Also,irrigationsystemsmayneedtobeimprovedsorainfromwintercanbestoredforthesummerasitishotter.Researchersarefindingthatpests,suchasaphids,arestartingtohatch(孵化)earlierintheyear.Inthelast10－15yearsthey'vebeenarrivinginspringtimeandthepopulationofaphidsappearstobegrowingtoo.Aphidsarearealproblemastheycancausesomuchdamagetocrops,andifthey'rearrivingearlierintheyearespeciallywhenthecropsarefragile,theycancausemoredamagethantheyusedto.語篇解讀：本文是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了氣溫上升造成農(nóng)作物品種、農(nóng)業(yè)生產(chǎn)種植方式的改變以及因?yàn)楹οx孵化提前造成農(nóng)作物大面積受害的事實(shí)。9．Itisquitepossiblethattheauthorcomesfrom．A．theUK
