外刊阅读——学会地道英语 法国农民在巴黎抗议
French farmers were angry with their government. They blocked roads around Paris, the capital city of France.
There were many reasons for the farmers’ anger. It was more difficult for them to make a living. Inflation (通货膨胀) in France increased because of high energy prices. It made food more expensive for farmers to produce. The war in Ukraine caused higher prices, especially for fertilizers (化肥). The farmers were also angry because the government was not protecting them from cheaper food coming from other countries, especially Eastern Europe. Finally, they were mad at European Union rules about the environment, which added to the costs of doing business.
The farmers blocked major highways around Paris. They parked their tractors (拖拉机) on main roads to stop traffic going in and out of the city. They also dumped smelly agricultural waste outside government offices. Farmer Christophe Rossignol said, “We’ve come to protect French agriculture. We go from crisis (危机) to crisis.” Another farmer said, “Parisians (巴黎人) are going to be hungry. The goal is to starve Parisians.” A large farmers’ union said, “Our aim is to put pressure on the government so that we can quickly find a solution to get out of the crisis.” Some tractors had messages that said, “No food without farmers” and “The end of us would mean you will get hungry.”

【分析】
本题为英语基础练习题，需根据不同题型要求解题：（一）根据语境和句子成分判断所需词性，转换所给单词的适当形式；（二）先理解黑体词含义，匹配方框内同义词，注意多余词；（三）掌握对应汉语的固定短语，完成句子；（四）仿写时需遵循指定句型结构，确保语法正确、语义通顺。
【解析】
一、（一）1. 空格处修饰介词短语“during some festivals”，需用副词，故将形容词especial变为副词especially；2. be动词后需用形容词作表语，故将动词smell变为形容词smelly；3. 不定冠词a后需用名词，故将动词solve变为名词solution。
（二）1. 黑体词“angry”意为“生气的”，对应方框内的mad；2. 黑体词“hard”意为“困难的”，对应方框内的difficult。
（三）1. 空格后是名词短语“the noise”，需用because of表示“因为”；2. “对……施加压力”为固定短语put pressure on，主语the bank是第三人称单数，一般现在时，故用puts pressure on。
（四）1. so that引导目的状语从句，主句为“我们应该学好英语”，从句为“我们就可以向世界讲述中国故事”，仿写为We should learn English well so that we can tell stories about China to the world；2. 动词不定式短语作表语，“制作水果沙拉的第三步”为主语，表语为“添加一些蜂蜜”，仿写为The third step in making fruit salad is to add some honey。
