详解】由上文“Assumingyougetsimilaroutputastheprofessionals,a60×60cmcontainerwouldonlygiveyouaround2to3kgperyear.Soatbest,youwouldonlygetyourmoneybackafteraround27years.(假设你的产量与专业人士相似，一个60×60厘米的容器每年只能给你2到3公斤左右。所以，你最多只能在27年后拿回你的钱。)”可知，上文讨论了使用容器种植土豆可能需要很长时间才能回本，再由后文“Well,giventhateverythinggoeswell,youwillstillneedtostartbybuyingseedpotatoes.Inmygardencentrethesedon’tcomecheap.(好吧，既然一切顺利，你仍然需要从购买种薯开始。在我的花园中心，这些并不便宜。)”可知，后文是在讨论在花园土壤中种植土豆，E选项中“thecontainer”和上文相呼应，“ingardensoil”引出下文种植方式，所以，E选项“Whatifyouabandonthecontainerandjustgrowsomepotatoesingardensoil?(如果你放弃容器，在花园的土壤里种一些土豆呢？)”提出了种植土豆的替代方案，自然地延续了关于如何更有效地种植土豆的话题。故选E。【19题详解】由上文“However,whenitcomestomoredelicateofferings,theoppositeisoftentrue.

Theplantsharvestedonlybyhandcanbecostlytobuy.(然而，当涉及到更精致的产品时，情况往往恰恰相反。只能手工收割的植物可能很贵。)”和下文“Manyherbslikemint,dillandfennelaresotoughthatmuchofthegardeningadviceishowtopreventthemfromtakingoveryourpot.(许多草药，如薄荷、莳萝和茴香，都非常坚硬，因此园艺建议大多是如何防止它们占据你的花盆。)”可知，这里主要讨论了某些植物的价格与其种植难易程度之间的反差，故本空需要引出一个与这种反差相关的观点。F选项“Thethreemostexpensiveitemsinmysupermarkethappentobetheeasiesttogrow.(我超市里最贵的三种商品恰好是最容易种植的。)”既是对上文内容的承接，也为下文进一步讨论这些植物的种植提供了铺垫。故选F。【20题详解】由上文“However,whenitcomestomoredelicateofferings,theoppositeisoftentrue.

Theplantsharvestedonlybyhandcanbecostlytobuy.(然而，当涉及到更精致的产品时，情况往往恰恰相反。只能手工收割的植物可能很贵。)”和“Manyherbslikemint,dillandfennelaresotoughthatmuchofthegardeningadviceishowtopreventthemfromtakingoveryourpot.Thisisalsotrueforpriceysaladcropslikewildrocket,orarugula,whichliveasecretdoublelifeasacommongardenweed.(许多草药，如薄荷、莳萝和茴香，都非常坚硬，因此园艺建议大多是如何防止它们占据你的花盆。对于野生火箭草或芝麻菜等昂贵的沙拉作物来说也是如此，它们作为一种常见的花园杂草，过着秘密的双重生活。)”可知，此处讨论的是一些植物虽然种植容易但价格却很高，这与一般的经济规律（即成本越低，价格应该越低）相悖。这些植物成为了经济规律中的一个例外。C选项中“These”指代的是前文提到的那些种植容易但价格昂贵的植物。故C选项“Theseturnouttobetheexceptiontothegeneraleconomicreality.(事实证明，这些都是一般经济现实的例外。)”总结上文，正好指出了上文所描述的植物是经济规律中的一个例外。故选C。第二部分英语知识运用（共两节，满分30分。）第一节完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分。）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。Artlessonsinhighschoolcontinuedtodrawmemoredeeplyintoart,likestilllifeandbotanicaldrawings.Generally,ourteacher___21___ourideasinArt,thusIfoundArtClassesmoreandmore___22___.TheresultcameinourMatriculationExam;Iachieveda(n)___23___highmark.Whilemymotherwashighlydelightedbytheresult,shewas___24___atthethoughtthatImighttrytobecomeanartist.Atenseperiodfollowed.Ididnotbecomeaprofessionalartist,butI___25___continuedartstudiesbecauseofmyworkinginalarge___26___office.Later,Itookupa(n)___27___inZimbabwebytheoffice,andfoundmuchthatheldmyinterestartistically.Firstwasthewildlife.Thelong___28___inthebushbroughtaboutmanysketchesandoilpaintings.However,therealsurprisewastheZimbabweruins,sevenoreightcenturiesold,andIwasfascinatedandit___29___apainting.TherewasalsotheVictoriaFalls;youjustcouldnotgopastwithouttryingtocapturethe___30___fromvariousangles.Mostofmy___31___werebroughtbackhome.Onmy___32___toBritain,althoughmuchpressurewasputontomewhilestudyingTheology,Ididhavevacationsbetweentermsanditdidallowmetimetopaintanddraw.AfewyearslaterIreceivedaverygoodjobofferinWesternAustralia,whenitwasknownthatIhad___33___learning.LifewasbusybutIstillputahalfhourorhour___34___everyweek,whenIcouldpaintordrawandtrulyrelax.Ididgain___35___fromthetimeIhadspentwithpen,pencilorpaintbrush.21.A.enriched B.assessed C.cleared D.limited22.A.boring B.innovative C.fascinating D.demanding23.A.outstandingly B.strangely C.accidentally D.steadily24.A.excited B.horrified C.disappointed D.proud25.A.thus B.nevertheless C.moreover D.finally26.A.printing B.business C.school D.drawing27.A.responsibility B.course C.appointment D.hobby28.A.stay B.sleep C.wait D.talk29.A.lookedlike B.resultedin C.referredto D.reflectedon30.A.life B.chance C.views D.feelings31.A.works B.memories C.belongings D.souvenirs32.A.journey B.approach C.adventure D.return33.A.theoretic B.language C.biological D.artistic34.A.aside B.off C.on D.out35.A.achievement B.reputation C.pleasure D.wealth【答案】21.A22.C23.A24.B25.B26.D27.C28.A29.B30.C31.A32.D33.D34.A35.C【语篇解读】本文体裁为记叙文。文章通过第一人称视角，回忆并叙述了作者从高中时期开始对艺术的兴趣，以及在家庭、工作和个人兴趣之间的平衡过程。文中详细描述了作者在不同阶段的生活经历和艺术探索，展现了个人成长和发展的心路历程。【21题详解】考查动词词义辨析。句意：通常我们的老师丰富我们的艺术想法，因此我发现艺术课越来越吸引人。A.enriched丰富；B.assessed评估；C.cleared清除；D.limited限制。根据上文“Artlessonsinhighschoolcontinuedtodrawmemoredeeplyintoart”、“ourteacher”和下文“ourideasinArt”可知，老师应该是丰富学生的想法。故选A。【22题详解】考查形容词词义辨析。句意：通常我们的老师丰富我们的艺术想法，因此我发现艺术课越来越吸引人。A.boring无聊的；B.innovative创新的；C.fascinating吸引人的；D.demanding要求高
