18．People need to seek out new foods because the world has so many mouths to feed．As of
2015，there are more than seven billion people on Earth，according to the United Nations．
And by 2100 that number may double．Feeding all of these people means not only improving the way food is grown，but also finding new sources of nutrition．
And that quest is becoming ever more urgent.1f nothing changes，within 35 years，the
world's appetite will be greater than the amount of food produced．That's according to a report released last year．It was prepared by the Global Harvest Initiative，a private agriculture group based in Washington，D．C．
Global warming，too，is changing food production．Scientists predict that rising
temperatures will reduce the growth of important crops like wheat，corn and soybeans．Low-income developing countries will be hit the hardest．When harvests fall，crops become more expensive．And since those foods are also used to feed animals like cows and pigs，meat prices too，will rise．
All over the world，researchers are racing against the clock to figure out how best to feed more people in a fast-changing world．And some surprising ideas have begun to come up．WO years ago，scientists introduced the first burger made from meat grown in a lab．
the project cost more than $ 300，000，but it's a start．Other researchers are developing seeds that can survive high temperatures and drought．Still others are finding ways to improve the genes of meat animals so they produce more meat and can stand the heat．
gloomy （悲观的） forecast for the planet isn't the only reason to study foods for the
future．It P s a creative quest that will inspire people who can think in new ways about existing plants and animals even insects．These researchers have used their talents in ways that even they never would have predicted．

3．阅读下面短文，然后按照要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文．
Have you duang-ed today？"It seems that everyone's duang-ing and I still don't know what it means!"said a Weibo user．
Actually，the character"duang"is so new that it does not even exist in the Chinese dictionary．But it has already spread like wildfire online in China，appearing more than 8million times on China's micro-blogging site Weibo，which drew 312，000discussions among 15，000users．On China's biggest online search engine Baidu，it has been looked up almost 600，000times．More interesting is that it's been noticed in the West too，with Foreign Policy seeing it as a"break the internet"．Because in recent years，some new buzz words have caught on in China and spread around the globe，such as"Tuhao"and"Dama"；"No zuo no die"and"You can you up"，etc．Therefore，such hot words are extremely popular in the internet used by netizens，especially in the microblog，Wechat and even in the students'examination paper．
Though many people think it cool and trendy to use internet buzz words，some still feel puzzled since some of them are limited in certain condition and more or less meaningless．Some parents even worry that with the increasing popularity of online buzz words，students tend to apply non-standard expressions and usage．Worse still，they may develop an inaccurate habit of using language．
