问题 It has been proven many times that farmers farm their own land more carefully and productively than they cultivate someone else’s soil. Again, a prime example comes from Japan, where, at the close of World War II, huge stretches of【C1】______ were in the hands of absentee landlords (在外地主),【C2】______ by tenants. Among the changes【C3】______ by the U. S. occupation was a land reform【C4】______ that put the farms in the hands of the individual farmers【C5】______ owners, not tenants; the landlords were expropriated (剥夺了地主的财产). Many of the farms thus assigned were small,【C6】______ production rose enormously. Today, Japanese【C7】______ , meticulous (细致的) in their care of the land and its【C8】______ , produce up to four times as【C9】______ grain per unit area as do other Asian farmers. Land reform programs in other【C10】______ of the world have had similar, if not quite as dramatic,【C11】______ on yields. Mexico began major land【C12】______ after the revolution, Egypt after the defeat of King Farouk,【C13】______ Taiwan after World War II. On a most modest【C14】______ , land reform programs have been【C15】______ in many other countries. Almost without exception, this has【C16】______ in increased productivity and much better【C17】______ of the soil. In the Soviet Union. workers on collective farms are【C18】______ a small parcel (一块) of land for their own use. Anyone【C19】______ has traveled through the U. S. S. R. has been struck by the intensive use made of these【C20】______ plots and their huge output, given their size.
【C1】
选项 A、ground
B、land
C、earth
D、soil
答案B
解析 ground意为“地面，泥土”；earth意为“陆地，大地，泥土”，作“大地”讲时包括与天相对的陆地和海洋；soil意为“土壤”，指植物、树木等生长的地表层；这个分句的意思是“大片的土地掌握在在外地主手里”，这里的“土地”指的是可耕作的田地，而land恰有此义
