GWD-10-Q10 to GWD-10-Q13:





One proposal for preserving



rain forests is to



promote the adoption of



Line new agricultural technolo-



(5) gies, such as improved



plant varieties and use of



chemical herbicides, which



would increase productivity



and slow deforestation by



(10) reducing demand for new



cropland. Studies have



shown that farmers in



developing countries who



have achieved certain levels



(15) of education, wealth, and



security of land tenure are



more likely to adopt such



technologies. But these



studies have focused on



(20) villages with limited land



that are tied to a market



economy rather than on



the relatively isolated, selfsufficient



communities with



(25) ample land characteristic of



rain-forest regions. A recent



study of the Tawahka people



of the Honduran rain forest



found that farmers with some



(30) formal education were more



likely to adopt improved plant



varieties but less likely to



use chemical herbicides



and that those who spoke



(35) Spanish (the language of



the market economy) were



more likely to adopt both



technologies. Nonland



wealth was also associated



(40) with more adoption of both



technologies, but availability



of uncultivated land reduced



the incentive to employ the



productivity-enhancing tech-



(45) nologies. Researchers



also measured land-tenure



security: in Tawahka



society, kinship ties are a



more important indicator of



(50) this than are legal property



rights, so researchers



measured it by a household’s



duration of residence



in its village. They found



(55) that longer residence correlated



with more adoption



of improved plant varieties



but less adoption of



chemical herbicides.

GWD-10-Q10:


The primary purpose of the passage is to



A. evaluate the likelihood that a particular proposal, if implemented, would



ultimately succeed in achieving its intended result



B. question the assumption that certain technological innovations are the most



effective means of realizing a particular environmental objective



C. discuss the progress of efforts to encourage a particular traditional society to



adopt certain modern agricultural methods



D. present the results of new research suggesting that previous findings concerning



one set of conditions may not be generalizable to another set of conditions



E. weigh the relative importance of three factors in determining whether a particular


strategy will be successful


注意line18 那个BUT 前后的内容



.............................................................................................................................

Q12:



NOTE: You must scroll to read the answer choices for this question.

The passage suggests that in the study mentioned in line 27 the method for gathering information about security of land tenure reflects which of the following pairs of assumptions about Tawahka society?



A. The security of a household’s land tenure depends on the strength of that household’s kinship ties, and the duration of a household’s residence in its village is an indication of the strength of that household’s kinship ties.



B. The ample availability of land makes security of land tenure unimportant, and the lack of a need for secure land tenure has made the concept of legal property rights unnecessary.



C. The strength of a household’s kinship ties is a more reliable indicator of that household’s receptivity to new agricultural technologies than is its quantity of nonland wealth, and the duration of a household’s residence in its village is a more reliable indicator of that household’s security of land tenure than is the strength of its kinship ties.



D. Security of land tenure based on kinship ties tends to make farmers more receptive to the use of improved plant varieties, and security of land tenure based on long duration of residence in a village tends to make farmers more receptive to the use of chemical herbicides.



E. A household is more likely to be receptive to the concept of land tenure based on legal property rights if it has easy access to uncultivated land, and a household is more likely to uphold the tradition of land tenure based on kinship ties if it possesses a significant degree of nonland wealth.



把line45-55 看一下就明白了

Q13



The findings of the study mentioned in line 27, if valid for rain-forest regions in general, suggest that which of the following is an obstacle most likely to be faced by those wishing to promote rain-forest preservation by implementing the proposal mentioned in line 1?



A. Lack of legal property rights tends to discourage local farmers from investing the time and resources required to successfully implement new agricultural technologies.



B. The ability to evaluate the wider economic ramifications of adopting new aricultural technologies depends on a relatively high level of formal education.



C. Isolation from the market economy tends to restrict local farmers’ access to new agricultural technologies that could help them to increase their productivity.



D. Ready availability of uncultivated land tends to decrease local farmers’ incentive to adopt new agricultural technologies that would reduce their need to clear new land for cultivation.



E. Traditions of self-sufficiency and reliance on kinship ties tend to diminish local farmers’ receptivity to new agricultural technologies introduced by people from outside the local community.

可否再讲解一下13, 为什么就单单选中了availability of uncultivated, 没有感觉出文章给出暗示啊?
