　　Crop-growing skyscrapers摩天大楼 （第四段）

　　原文

　　The supporters of vertical farming claim many potential advantages of the system. For instance, crops would be produced all year round, as they would be kept in artificially controlled, optimum growing conditions. There would be no weather-related crop failures due to droughts, floods or pest. All the food could be grown organically, eliminating the need for herbicides, pesticides and fertilizers(这三个词分别是灭草剂，杀虫剂和化肥，其中fertilizer化肥曾出现在大作文题目中，不认识直接完蛋). The system would greatly reduce the incidence of many infectious diseases that are acquired at the agricultural interface. Although the system would consume energy, it would return energy to grid via methane generation from composting non-edible parts of plants. It would also dramatically reduce fools fuel use, by cutting out the need for tractors, ploughs and shipping.
