3??閱讀理解

In gardens across Britain the grass has stopped growing, which is not drought-stricken. In fact, it is greener and cleaner than ever before. That is because the lawns（草坪）are actually artificial substitutes.

Britons are fascinated by lawns. Country estates（莊園）have long competed to have the most perfectly cut and polished grassland. "What you're saying in big louda CapitaI letters, is I'm so terribly wealthy',"’says Fiona Davison of the RHS（皇家園林協(xié)會(huì)）. With thecoming of grass-cutting machines in 1830, the middle classes joined the fun.

28. What can be inferred from Davison's remark in paragraph 2？

• remark：推斷出
• A. She is very rich.
• B. The gardening competition is fierce.
• C. Operating a cutting machine is fun.
• D. High-quality grassland is greatly valued.?
• ABC都是細(xì)節(jié)，D是推理

But now Britons have fallen in love with artificial grass. Evergreens UK, which sells the stuff, says it has seen a 120% rise in sales since 2015. Artificial grass is popular with families who have children or dogs and don't want mud dragged through their houses. It has another charm factor, too—people now see gardens as“outside rooms"—pairing carpetsof artificial grass with delicately decorated seating and hot containers.

29. What possibly contributes to the popularity of artificial grass?

• contribute to：有助于
• A. Advertising campaigns.
• B. Gardens'new function.
• C. Messy grasslands.【是假設(shè)方面的】
• D. Ill-mannered children and dogs.
• Ill-mannered：無禮的

Not everyone is a fan. Artificial grass contains microplastics that ruin soil and risk flooding. A study finds earthworms gain 14% less body weight when operating under rubber, a form of artificial grass, which might not be a problem for its fans, as wormholes are regular disgusting things, but it disappoints green types. Ms Davison says a group of wildlife-loving gardeners is blooming， many having caught the bug during COVID-19 lockdowns. For example, a landscape designer says they like things less neat and try “tocapture that wild element". These eco-gardeners are influenced by rewilding projects andare more likely to be environmentalists.

30. What does the underlined word "bug" mean in the fourth paragrarh?

• A. Interest.?
• B. Earthworm.
• C. Flower.
• D. Virus.

While three written documents signed by many people have tried to stop artificial grass spreading, the government says regulating what people do in their backyards is wrong. The RHS is concerned about artificial grass, but prefers persuasion to laws. "Wesay ‘Let a hundred flowers bloom',"says Ms Davison.

• regulate：調(diào)整
• persuasion：說服

31.Which of the following is a suitable title of the text?

• A. The barrier of British grassland
• B. The appeal of grassland for Britons
• C. The fight to define the great British garden
• fight ＝ argument
• 兩方面的爭論：天然草坪VS人造草坪
• D. The competition to become the best grassland
