Para1 Chemical pesticides and artificial fertilisers have been in widespread use in farming since the middle of the 20th century. When they were first introduced, many farmers welcomed them as a great way to fight crop disease and increase production. Over time, however, what some scientists have found is that their long-term use can sometimes harm both the land and peoples’ health.
pesticide n.殺蟲劑 introduce v.推行；實施；采用
in widespread use 在廣泛使用中
over time 隨著時間的流逝
Para2 For example, pesticides can damage the land by killing not only harmful bacteria and insects, but also helpful ones. In addition, these chemicals can stay in the soil and underground water sources for a long time. This affects the crops grown on the land and, in turn, the animals and humans who digest them. Many people worry that these chemicals may make them ill and even cause cancer. In fact, some pesticides like DDT have been prohibited in most countries because of the damage they cause to people and the environment. As for chemical fertilisers, crops grown with them usually grow too fast to be rich in nutrition. They may look beautiful on the outside, but inside there is usually more water than essential minerals, and they often have less flavour as well
bacteria n (單數bacterium）細菌
in turn 相應地；轉而；依次
digest vt.& vi. 消化；vt. 領會；領悟
as for 至于too...to ... 太...而不能
essential: adj.完全必要的；極其重要的
Para3 As an alternative, some farmers have switched to organic farming, and many customers have turned to organic food when they shop at the local grocery. Organic farming is simply farming without using any chemicals. Organic farmers focus on keeping their soil rich and free of disease through natural means. For example, many organic farmers use natural waste from animals as fertiliser. This makes the soil in their fields richer in minerals. It also keeps the air, soil, water, and crops free of chemicals.
alternative n.可供選擇的事物
switch to/turn to
轉向，轉變
grocery n. 食品雜貨店（pl食品雜貨）
keep...free of/from 使...免受...傷害（或影響等）
through natural means 通過天然的方法
Para4 Organic farmers also use many other methods to produce rich soil. They often change the kind of crop grown in each field every year. For instance, they may grow corn or wheat in a field one year, and then grow beans there the next. Why different crops are grown is because they put important minerals back into the ground, making it ready for the next batch of crops. Organic farmers also plant diverse crops that used different depths of soil to help keep it rich. For example, peanuts grow on the ground’s surface, but many other vegetables put down deep roots. The goal of using different organic farming methods is to grow good food while avoiding damage to the environment or to people’s health.
for instance /for example 例如，比如
depth n. 向下（或向里）的距離；深度
put down roots 生根；定居
Para5 Some people would prefer to stop the use of man-made chemicals in agriculture entirely. What keeps them from doing so is the fact that chemical farming serves the high demand for food around the world. Organic farming is nowhere near able to meet that need. Therefore, there is still a long way to find a suitable solution that puts sufficient food on the dinner table while keeping people and the environment as healthy as possible.
entirely adv.全部地；完整地；完全地
serve vt 對...有用，能滿足...需要
serve/meet /satisfy the demand for 滿足對...需要

Advantages of Organic Farming
Compared to chemical farming, organic farming enjoys its overwhelming superiority. The reasons are as follows.
Firstly, organic food is healthier and safer as in organic farming, poisonous chemicals like pesticides are forbidden from being used on crops. Furthermore, organic farming is environmentally friendly. For instance, organic farmers use natural waste from animals as fertilizer, which is harmless to the environment. Lastly, farmers can increase their income through organic farming. As people tend to pursue a green life, they are more likely to buy organic fruit and vegetables despite the high prices.
With incomparable advantages, therefore, organic farming is expected to benefit more people in the future.
