三、阅读理解(共10题,每题2分,共20分)
A
They look like common biscuits and don’t taste bad, either. But if they are made with unusual things, like crickets do you still dare to try?
Three students at Abertay University in Dundee, UK, are using ground-up(磨成粉的) crickets to make biscuits. They are trying to find more sustainable food sources to solve world hunger, reported Daily Mail.
The students are using Thailand house crickets flour. About 1,100 crickets can make 100 grams of flour. The cricket flour is then mixed with eggs, butter and wheat flour. Finally, it is baked to make biscuits.
Anja Siegharsleitner is leading the study. She said that insects are a lot more sustainable than other meats.
Insects are easier to raise. They use less water and land, and produce less greenhouse gasses than cows and pigs. They also have more proteins than beef, chicken and pork.
In fact, in a 2013 report, the United Nations called on more people to eat insects to beat world. Scientists have found more than 1,900 edible insects. Some of these include crickets, beetle, grasshoppers and cicadas
People may not want to eat a whole cricket, said Siegharsleitner. But if it’s hidden away in flour or biscuits then they may be more likely to accept it. Cricket flour is already for sale on the market, she added.
“If we are seeking to feed 9 billion people by 2050, then we have to change our eating behavior.” She said.
A
People are more likely to eat insects because of protein.
B
More cricket flour is for sale in the supermarket.
C
We may eat more food made of insects for our meals.
D
People will use more ground-up crickets to make biscuits.
正确答案 :C
解析
推理判断题。根据第五段中“Insects are easier to raise. They use less water and land, and produce less greenhouse gasses than cows and pigs. They also have more proteins (蛋白质) than beef, chicken and pork.”可知,昆虫容易喂养,营养价值又高于牛肉、鸡肉和猪肉,可推知以后我们会食用更多昆虫制作的食物。故本题答案为C。
