答案：D　由上文提到他找到了一种满足全世界的人的需要的办法，因此，首先应该意识到需要。故选D项，recognize认出，意识到。“早在1906年他上初中时，他第一次意识到那是一种需要”。而admit承认；fill填满，满足；supply供应。皆不合句意。

Ⅴ.阅读理解

LONDON (Reuters)—Organic fruit, delivered right to the doorstep. That is what Gabriel Gold prefers, and he is willing to pay for it. If this is not possible, the 26­year­old computer technician will spend the extra money at the supermarket buying organic food.

“Organic product is always better，” Gold said. “The food is free of pesticides(杀虫剂), and you are generally supporting family farms instead of large farms. And more often than not it is locally grown and seasonal, so it is tasty.” Gold is one of the growing number of shoppers buying into the_organic_trend,_and supermarkets across Britain are counting on more like him as they grow their organic food business. But how many shoppers really know what they are getting, and why are they willing to pay a higher price for organic product? Market research shows that Gold and others who buy organic food can generally give clear reasons for their preferences—but their knowledge of organic food is far from complete. For example, small amounts of pesticides can be used on organic product. And about three quarters of organic food in Britain is not local but imported to meet growing demand. “The demand for organic food is increasing by about one third every year, so it is a very fast­growing market，” said Sue Flock, a specialist in this line of business.

文章大意：有机农产品不用农药，更环保，更健康。尽管价格稍高，但受到人们青睐。

1．More and more people in Britain are buying organic food because ________.

A．they are getting richer

B．they can get the food anywhere

A．It grows indoors all year round.

B．It is produced outside Britain.

C．It is grown on family farms.

D．It is produced on large farms.

答案：B　细节理解题。此题考查审题的缜密性。本题的题眼在“most”一词。根据第二段中的“And about three quarters of organic food in Britain is not local but imported to meet growing demand.”可知，英国本地生产有机农产品，但是四分之三的有机农产品是从国外进口的。据此选B。

3．What is the meaning of the underlined words “the organic trend” in the second paragraph?

A．Growing interest in organic food.

B．Better quality of organic food.

C．Rising market for organic food.

D．Higher prices of organic food.

答案：A　词义猜测题。根据第二段中的“Gold is one of the growing number of shoppers buying into the organic trend...”可知，越来越多的人购买有机农产品，结果成了一种潮流。故选A。

4．What is the best title for this news story?

A．Organic food—healthy, or just for the wealthy?

B．The making of organic food in Britain

C．Organic food—to import or not?

D．Good qualities of organic food

答案：A　主旨大意题。综观全文可知，有机农产品不用农药，更环保，更健康。在英国，四分之三的有机农产品是从国外进口的，价格稍高一点，但是购买的人还是越来越多。B项、C项和D项都是片面的。
