\Jones said.
She is one of a growing number of students being drawn to agriculture schools around the country, not by ties to a farm but by science, the job prospects for those who are good at it and, for some, an interest in the environment.
Enrollment (入学人数) in bachelor's degree programs in agriculture across the country grew by 21.8 percent from 2005 to 2008, from about 58,300 students to nearly 71,000. Yet the number of farms nationwide has dropped for decades.
Many students are choosing to major in agriculture, educators from across the country say, after finding out that much of what they'll learn is science?biology, chemistry and a long list of more specialized areas that can land them jobs at companies that produce the seeds and chemicals for farmers.
Demand for science graduates, agriculture industry officials say, outstrips supply. Monsanto, the St. Louis agricultural business giant that makes seeds, pesticides (杀虫剂) and a series of other farm products, can't hire enough.
UC-Davis' College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences is one of the country's biggest agriculture schools and still has plenty of students studying in traditional areas, said Diane Ullman, the college's associate dean. But more than 3,200 of its agriculture students are studying so-called human sciences, such as nutrition, or environmental sciences, such as environmental policy.

61.How do people feel when they have known Tristesse Jones's major?
A) Excited. B) Annoyed. C) Surprised. D) Disappointed.
正确答案为 C 你没有作答。 解析：
题干的意思是：当得知Tristesse Jones所学的专业的时候，人们是什么感觉？文章第二段提到Jones说当人们得知她所学的专业后，问她到底是什么样的专业，是不是想要去种庄稼（What is that? So you want to grow plants）。由此可以推断人们感到非常惊讶，所以选C。 62.Tristesse Jones chose to study agriculture because ________.
A) she had great interest in agricultural studies B) she intended to manage her family's farm C) it could help her to get a satisfactory job D) it could realize her childhood dreams
正确答案为 C 你没有作答。 解析：
题干的意思是：Tristesse Jones选择农学专业的原因是什么。文章第三段提到选择农校的学生越来越多，Tristesse Jones就是其中之一（She is one of a growing number of students being drawn to agriculture schools），她们选择农校是因为未来的工作前景（the job prospects），也就是说有助于找到满意的工作，所以选C。
63.According to the passage, students majoring in agriculture will ________.
A) compete with students in other majors in the job market B) have a wide range of potential job opportunities C) study quite a few courses about environment D) mostly work in large farms after graduation
正确答案为 B 你没有作答。 解析：
题干的意思是：农学专业毕业的学生会怎么样。文章第五段提到许多农学专业的学生要学习很多门课程，例如生物学、化学，甚至是更加专业的学科（finding out that much of what they'll learn is science—biology, chemistry and a long list of more specialized areas），这样有助于他们在不同的公司找到工作（can land them jobs at companies）。由此可以推断农学专业毕业的学生的未来就业前景非常广泛，所以选B。
64.What does the author imply by saying \officials say, outstrips supply\
A) It is easy for agriculture students to find jobs after graduation. B) It is advisable for agriculture students to learn more about science. C) People's prejudice against agricultural studies has been eliminated. D) Agricultural studies have attracted increasing attention from students.
正确答案为 A 你没有作答。 解析：
题干的意思是：文章第六段中作者提到“农业官员说对农业专业毕业学生的需求超过了供给”是什么意思？文章第六段里农业官员提到，对农业专业毕业生的需求超过了供给（Demand for science graduates, agriculture industry officials say, outstrips supply），由此可以推断，这个专业的毕业生很容易找到工作，所以选A。
65.According to Ullman, why are there so many students studying the so-called human sciences?
A) Because they think human sciences are more important than agriculture.
B) Because they are inclined to get a satisfactory job easily after graduation. C) Because they think human sciences can better help those who are in need. D) Because they are fond of solving social problems with what they've learned.
正确答案为 D 你没有作答。 解析：
题干的意思是：Ullman认为，为何有如此多的学生学习所谓的人文科学？文章倒数第二段最后一句话提到有三千二百多名农学专业的学生学习所谓的人文学科（more than 3,200 of its agriculture students are studying so-called human sciences），接着在最后一段提到了出现这一现象的原因，年轻人逐渐意识到几乎所有的社会问题都与粮食有关（young people are recognizing all of the issues that surround our society that have to do with food）， 并且他们对找到解决这些问题的新方法非常感兴趣（there's a real interest in new ways of doing things and solving some of these problems），所以选D。
