12、句为 it 作形式主语的复合句。真正的主语是 that 引导的从句，而真正的主 语太长，为了避免句子头重脚轻，所以用形式主语 it。 自主翻译据估计，现在中国国内消费的大米有大约 60%来自袁隆平的杂交水稻，他的 杂交水稻让中国农民每年能够生产大约两亿吨大米。 4句式分析本句中 Given that.为连词，相当于 considering，意为“考虑到；鉴于”。 自主翻译考虑到杂交水稻让袁隆平变得相当富有， 人们可能认为他会退休享受闲适的生 活。 板块二-拓展训练 .阅读理解 A Three experimental fields of seawater rice were harvested

13、 in China on Wednesday，a further step toward its future practical use.Also known as salinealkali tolerant rice(耐盐碱水稻)，the seawater rice is designed to grow in seaside flats or other areas with high salt content and has been developed by experts through crossbreeding(杂交) and other technologies. One t

14、ype of seawater rice growing in Qingdaos Chengyang district，Shandong Province， produced 3.9 metric tons(公吨) per hectare(公顷)，experts announced.Once widely planted in large areas，the output could be much higher.

27、he crops. JeanBaptiste Bruggeman is a farmer.He says the drone flies over his crops at different times of the season.And this provides a lot of information about his crops.The drone pictures show him the exact amount of fertilizer the crops need.It also shows exactly where the fertilizer is needed.S

28、ome areas of a field may need more than others. As a result ， Mr Bruggeman says there is reduced nitrogen from the fertilizer after the harvest.This helps nature.Romain Faroux says farmers use information gathered by the Agridrone to place fertilizer only in areas where it was needed.Before they use

29、d the drones，farmers would put the same amount of fertilizer everywhere.
