Community supported agriculture farms, or CSAs, seek people who pay in advance for fresh vegetables and fruits. One farmer has now expanded his CSA program to a law firm in New York City.
    The Glebocki family has been in the farming business since 1894. But staying in business is not easy. Farming requires a lot of money for seeds and equipment at the beginning of the growing season.(5)And farmers do not know how much money they will get for their crops at the end of the season. They are also not sure if anyone will buy what they grow. John Glebocki, the current farm owner, has one solution to these problems: community supported agriculture.(6)CSAs, for short, are partnerships between farmers and community members. Mr. Glebocki also offers his CSA program to businesses and delivers directly to offices.
    Customers pay $ 525 in advance for 22 weeks of fresh fruits and vegetables—all picked at their peak. "Everyone should join.(7)It’s a great way to keep our farmers in business to insure we continue to get fresh produce." The busy lawyers say.
5. What can we learn about the farmers before CSAs were put forward?
6. What are CSAs according to the news report?
7. What do the customers think of CSAs?

选项 A、They didn’t know if they have potential customers.
B、They had no idea about how to get higher yield of crops.
C、They didn’t know how much crops they would produce.
D、They didn’t have enough money to buy seeds and equipment.

答案 A

解析 新闻开始部分提到,农民们不知道到了季末他们的庄稼能让他们赚多少钱。他们也不确定是否有人买他们种植的产品。由此可见,在社区支持农业这项服务被提出之前,农民们不确定是否有潜在客户。
