【题目】 Australian consumers in Adelaide are taking part in a study to help realize the potential for edible(可食用的)insects as a food industry. Consumers' attitudes are being put to the test at Adelaide Central Market with an offering of roasted crickets and ants, mealworm cookies and cricket energy bars.

Researchers want to further probe consumers' attitudes towards edible insects, and evaluate taste preferences and consumers5 willingness to buy such products. In an earlier online survey of 820 Australian consumers, the researchers found that 20% had tried edible insects. Of those surveyed, 46% said they'd be willing to try a cookie made from insect flour.

" In the earlier survey, consumers said they were most likely to try flavored or roasted insects and least likely to want to try cockroaches or spiders," Dr Crump says. "In this taste test, we've chosen products that consumers are most likely to react positively towards―apologies to anyone keen to try a cockroach or spider. The samples we'll be offering consumers provide a good spread of the available insect products in Australia' s marketplaces, some of which may be more acceptable than others."

Dr Crump says the research will help guide the development of an edible insect industry. In Australia, edible insects remain a new agricultural industry. Consumer research is needed to improve consumer acceptance of edible insects, so as to realize their potential as an alternative protein(蛋白质)source.

Professor Kerry Wilkinson says edible insects could play a role in global food security. "Problems such as climate change, increasing global population, shortage of agricultural land and rapidly changing consumer preferences are common, particularly in developing countries where there is an increasing demand for high quality animal protein," he says. "These food security problems will only be overcome by a change in food consumption habits. Edible insects could provide one solution. We want to look at ways of overcoming barriers to insect consumption in Australia.

1What does the underlined word "probe" in paragraph 2 most probably mean?

A.Explore.B.Influence.C.Describe.D.Compare.

2Why have the researchers chosen certain insect products for the taste test?

A.Because they are richer in protein than other insects.

B.Because it is not difficult to flavor or roast them.

C.Because they are widely acceptable in Australia.

D.Because they are probably to consumers' taste.

3In Kerry Wilkinson's opinion, how can consumers help remove food security problems?

A.By taking in less animal protein.

B.By changing their eating habits.

C.By expanding agricultural land.

D.By controlling their appetite.

4What can be the best title for the text?

A.Insects Make Food Security No Longer a Problem

B.Could Edible Insects Help Global Food Security?

C.Edible Insects Prove an Alternative Protein Source

D.What Counts Most When It Gomes to Edible Insects?

【题目】 When you're selling a product or service, you have two main methods to choose from. You need to decide whether you want to use the hard-sell(强行推销) method or a soft one.1Let's take a look at the difference between the two to determine which one is right for your business.

Nearly every good business employs the soft-sell(软推销)method in some way. With this method, a company can encourage a customer to buy a product or service without seeming too pushy(死缠硬磨的).2

The soft-sell method often uses promotions like money-back guarantees and free-trial periods. By promising your customers that they'll be happy with their purchase (购买), you can persuade them to give you a chance.3That can help your financial goals on track.

4Choosing to sell your products or services this way will help people know that your business is reliable and easy to work with. Sometimes good word of mouth can make all the difference in how many sales you make.

The soft-sell method is generally the preferred one for most businesses, but that doesn't mean it's perfect. 5 If your competitors are employing a hard-sell method their aggression could force customers into buying from them instead of you.A hard-sell method is typically a more aggressive way of making a sale While some people will be turned off by a pushy method, there will always be those who give in to the pressure. So it's important to take that into consideration if you plan to rely only on the soft-sell method.

A. Both methods have advantages and disadvantages.

B. The soft-sell method will also help you win good fame.

C. a salesman tries to sell something using indirect methods.

D. Sometimes a soft method might be easily beaten by a pushy one.

E.“ Soft sell”and“ hard sell” are known to scholars and businessmen.

F. When you keep your promise, you earn their trust and gain repeat buyers.

G. The idea shows the good of making a purchase while putting customers at ease.
