问题 What is the main idea of paragraph 1?
We can infer from the last paragraph that ______.
选项 A、rich farmers will become richer and the poor poorer
B、farmers’ income will rise as they import more chemicals and machinery
C、high input agriculture will benefit rich as well as poor farmers
D、the Third World will show mercy to the transnational food company
答案A
解析 由题干中的the last paragraph定位到原文末段。[精析] 题干问的是从文章末段可以推断出什么。由原文high-input agriculture only favored richer farmers who could afford to pay for the chemicals and drive out poorer farmers who could not可以推断出， A)“富农更富，贫民愈穷”含义与之相符，故为正确答案。[排除干扰] 由原文But the corresponding rise in farmers incomes was soon offset by the increasing costs of imported chemical inputs and machinery...可推断B)“农民的收入将随着进口更多农药和机械而增加”错误，故排除，其中offset为“抵消”的意思，而非增长；由原文“drive out poorer farmers”推测C)“高投入型农业会使富农贫农双受益”错误，贫穷的农民不会受益，故排除；D)“第三世界对跨国粮食公司报以同情”是对原文Third World farmers and governments, will increasingly be at the mercy of the transnational food companies的逻辑颠倒和误解，这里at the mercy of是指“受支配”，并非同情的意思，故排除。
