18.Saving the planet one plateful at a time does not mean cutting back on meat,according to new research:the trick may be to switch our diet to insects.
The raising of livestock such as cows,pigs and sheep occupies two thirds of the world's farmland and produces 20% of all the greenhouse gases driving global warming.As a result,the United Nations wants to reduce the amount of meat we eat and the search is on for alternatives.
Professor Arnold van Huis says eating insects(昆虫) has advantages(优势)."There is a meat crisis,"he said."The world population will grow from six billion now to nine billion by 2050 and we know people are consuming more meat.Twenty years ago the average was 20kg,it is now 50kg,and will be 80kg in 20 years.If we continue like this we will need another Earth."
"Most of the world already eats insects,"he points out."It is only in the western world that we don't.Psychologically(心理上的) we have a problem with it.I don't know why,as we eat shrimps,which are very comparable."
The advantages of this diet include insects'high levels of protein,vitamin and mineral content.Being coldblooded,insects change plant matter into protein extremely efficiently.In addition,the health risks are lower.He acknowledges that in the west eating insects is a hard sell,"It is very important how you prepare them,you have to do it very nicely,to overcome the yuk factor."
Durst helped set up an insect farming project FAO project in Laos.This involves transferring the skills of the 15,000 household locust farmers in Thailand across the border."There were some supporters of a bigger dairy industry in Laos to improve a calcium(钙) deficiency,"says Durst."But this is crazy when most Asians are lactose (乳糖) intolerant(不耐受)."Locusts and crickets are calciumrich and 90% of people in Laos have eaten insects at some point.Durst says the project will be to increase the eating of insects where this is already accepted but has been in decline due to western cultural influence.

25.According to Van Huis,westerners don't eat insects becauseB.
A.there are fewer nutriments in insects
B.they can't overcome a mental barrier(精神障碍)
C.insects aren't as delicious as shrimps
D.insects don't have much meat themselves
26.It can be inferred from what Durst said thatD.
A.Laos is where locusts and cricket are eaten most
B.people in Laos are good at cooking eating insects
C.eating insects in Laos is much more popular at presen t
D.milk isn't suitable for most Asian people to increase calcium
27.What might be the most suitable title for the passage?A
A.Insects Are the Future of Protein
B.Insects Are Rich in Calcium
C.Insects Are the Target of Eating
D.Insects Are the Alternative for Food.
15.A good book can be satisfying.If reading is a habit you'd like to get into,there are some ways to develop it.
☆Realize that reading is enjoyable if you have a good book.If you have a difficult book and you are forcing yourself through it,it will seem like a task.(36)A

☆(39)CFind a place in your home where you can sit in a comfortable chair.Do not lie down unless you're going to sleep.There should be no television or computer near the chair,and no music or noisy family members or roommates.If you don't have a place like this,create one.
☆Reduce television or the Internet.If you really want to read more,try cutting back on time on TV or the Internet.(40)FStill,every minute you reduce of the Internet or TV,you could use for reading.This could create hours of book reading time.

12.Do you know how it is when you see someone yawn and you start yawning too?Or how hard it is to be among people laughing and not laugh yourself?Well,apparently it's because we have mirror neurons (镜像神经元) in our brains.
Put simply,the existence of mirror neurons suggests that every time we see someone else do something,our brains copy it,whether or not we actually perform the same action.This explains a great deal about how we learn to smile,talk,walk,dance or play sports.But the idea goes further:mirror neurons not only appear to explain physical actions,they also tell us that there is biological basis for the way we understand other people.
Mirror neurons can undoubtedly be found all over our brains,but especially in the areas which relate to our ability to use languages,and to understand how other people feel.Researchers discovered that if they gave people sentences to listen to (for example:The hand took hold of the ball),the same mirror neurons were triggered as when the action was actually performed (in this example,actually taking hold of a ball).
Any problems with mirror neurons may well result in problems with behavior.Much research suggests that people with social and behavioral problems have mirror neurons which are not fully functioning.However,it is not yet known exactly how these discoveries might help find treatments for social disorders.
Research into mirror neurons seems to provide us with ever more information concerning how humans behave and communicate.Indeed,it may turn out to be the equivalent (相等物) for neuroscience of what Enstein's theory of relativity was for physics.And the next time you feel the urge to cough in the cinema when someone else does-well,perhaps you'll understand why.

32.Mirror neurons can explainC.
A.why we cry when we are hurt
B.why we cough when we suffer from a cold
C.why we smile when we see someone else smile
D.why we yawn when we see someone else stay up late
33.The underlined word"triggered"in Paragraph 3probably means"B".
A.broken upB.set ofC.built upD.cut off
34.Which of the following statements is TRUE about mirror neurons?D
A.They result in bad behavior and social disorders
B.They control human physical actions and feelings
C.They determine our knowledge and language abilities
D.They relate to human behavior and communication
35.What is the passage mainly about?B
A.Existence of mirror neurons.
B.Functions of mirror neurons.
C.Ways to find mirror neurons.
D.Problems of mirror neurons.
17.Living near the beach may come with an extra advantage:better health.A new study analyzed information from more than 48million people in England and found that the nearer they lived to the coast,the more likely people were to report good health within the past year.
Living near the coast may be associated with better health because the seaside environment reduces stress,the researchers said.They pointed to another British study that found that people who took trips to the coast experienced more feelings of calmness and relaxation than those who visited urban parks or the countryside.
The difference from living near the coast was relatively small.But a small effect,when applied to an entire population can have a substantial impact on public health,said study researcher Ben Wheeler of Peninsula College of Medicine and Dentistry in Exeter,England.
However,it's too soon to advise people to hit the beach to improve health,Wheeler said.The study only found an association,not a cause-effect link,and it's possible that other factors could explain the results.For instance,it could be that people who are wealthier,and therefore healthier,are more able to move to desired locations such as the coast,Wheeler said,a phenomenon known as the migrant effect.But the study did find that the association between coastal living and better health was strongest for those living in the poorest areas,which perhaps indicates that wealth cannot explain the results,Wheeler said.
Because the study looked at only England-an island country in which everyone lives within 72miles of the coast,it's not clear whether the findings would apply to other populations.Far from England,a health expert not involved in the study said that while the British research certainly doesn't prove that people's health and the place they live are linked,it's possible that proximity to the seas does something for our bodies.
29.We can conclude from the passage thatA.
A.people living near the sea may be healthier
B.people pay increasingly attention to health
C.people are encouraged to move to the coast
D.people are worried about residential environment
30.According to the researchers,living near the seaC.
A.doesn't nearly affect the British population
B.can cure some difficult diseases in a way
C.can help get over one's stress
D.means freeing from sadness or troubles
31What does the underlined word"proximity"in the passage mean?D
A.being distant      
B.being opposite     
C.being similar     
D.being close.
