农业革命 Agricultural Revolution
Jason B. One example of using creativity to surmount a difficult task was the Agricultural Revolution. In the seventeenth century, both England and the Netherlands faced a serious dilemma. The two countries experienced a rapidly increasing population while the availability of arable land diminished. In order to supply food to a growing population, the governments of both countries turned to brilliant innovators such as Tull. Tull used his creativity to devise more efficient methods of farming that would be practiced in Europe centuries into the future. As the British author, D. H. Lawrence,noted, "the ideas of one generation become the instincts of the next." The new ideals of one man became the basis of farming for years to come.
点评：文章又一次说明了欧洲历史的AP课程的重要性。但Jason并不满足于仅仅写几个有趣的历史事实，他在段落结尾加入了文学因素，引用了大作家大卫·赫伯特·劳伦斯的话来强调他的观点：农业革命具有时代影响力。
