IV Reading. Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow.

The Importance of Plants

Man has always depended on plants for food and many other useful products For this reason, farming is one of the world’s most important industries At first, early man did not know how to plant seeds and raise crops He gathered wild fruits and vegetables where he found them Then man discovered how to grow his own food He planted

seeds and waited for the crop to grow For the first time, he could be reasonably sure of his food supply He could settle down and build shelters in the places where he grew food

As populations began to increase, the demand for food became greater Old

fashioned tools and farming methods were inefficient in meeting the demand, so man cultivated more and more land and invented complicated machines to make his work easier

Tractors replaced horses and other farm animals Scientists studied and

experimented with plants, they told farmers how to control plant diseases, and how top grow bigger and better crops Now one man, with a knowledge of plants and the help of machines, can cultivate hundreds of acres He can raise plants which did not originally grow in the soil or climate of his community

………

2 In order to become a farmer, what is the least knowledge a person must have? ………

3 When did man start to settle down and build shelters in particular places? ………
