As the recent courgette(密生西葫芦)crisis and shortages of lettuce, eggplants and broccoli(绿花椰菜)have shown, Spain’s fame as the vegetable garden of Europe is well deserved. The country’s huge agricultural sector—courgettes, lettuces, tomatoes and strawberries—【C1】______a huge demand.
There has been a major【C2】______towards mechanisation since the 1950s, but just as in the UK, many crops still need to be harvested by hand, and many farmers rely on migrant labour. Even where mechanisation can be used, picking machines tend to be too expensive and【C3】______for small-scale farmers.
The tension between locals and migrant workers,【C4】______from North and Sub-Saharan Africa and eastern Europe—is not a big problem, as many of the foreign workers have proper【C5】______and return to the same farms year after year. They’re known and that’s important.
Alfrut—a company in the south-western province of Huelva that exports strawberries, raspberries, and other fruits around the EU—still harvests by hand. " There is a machine that gathers strawberries, but you have to【C6】______the crop to the machine," says Agustin Muriel, a technical and quality control expert at Alfrut. " If we were to use machines, we would have to【C7】______our entire infrastructure and it would require a lot of investment in machinery, which is designed mainly for large areas and really big companies. "
He adds that the【C8】______, manual approach is likely to continue for the【C9】______future, as fruit prices aren’t high enough to allow farmers to make big【C10】______in machinery or spend money reconfiguring(重新配置)their operations.
A)adapt I)investments
B)attach J)modify
C)contracts K)predominantly
D)feeds L)preference
E)foreseeable M)shift
F)heralds N)traditional
G)impractical O)unexpectedly
H)inaccessible [br] 【C1】
选项
答案
D
解析
空格位于主语agricultural sector和宾语a huge demand之间,且根据上下文语境,应填入动词一般现在时作谓语,且是第三人称单数。根据上文所说,西班牙素有“欧洲的蔬菜园”之称,可见它需要满足巨大的需求,故空格处应填入D)feeds“供养,供给”。
