To eat only a
vegan
（素食的）
diet might sound
difficult, especially with many popular dishes
containing meat or other animal
products. Yet in 2017, veganism was described as
“the fastest
-
growing
lifestyle movement” in the UK
,
according to BBC news.
A
study
by
a
UK
market
research
organization,
suggests
that
over
542,000
Brits
went
vegan
during the previous decade, an increase
of 360%. And the main force behind this increase
was
those aged 15-34 years old
—
42% of recent vegans fall
under that age range.
So
why exactly has veganism become so popular among
young Brits?
One reason
could be that many young people want to protect
the environment, as less meat
consumption
is
known
to
be
beneficial
to
the
environment.
Global
meat
manufacturing
is
believed to cause 18% of
the world's greenhouse gas
emissions
（排放）
, even more
than that of
all the world's cars,
trains and planes combined. Another reason is that
many of today's young
people believe
that it's wrong to kill animals to be used as
food.
Jess Murray, 22, a
student at University College London, said that he
chose to become vegan
after realizing
that eating animals is a choice that people make,
rather than something that we
need to
do to survive. “Becoming vegan was an
ethica
l (
道德的
)
decision,” he told the Guardian.
Social media is also believed to
have given rise to the increase in veganism.
Platforms such as
Facebook
allow
young
vegans
to
connect
with
each
other
much
easier,
while
others
such
as
Instagram have led to the
creation of “vegan celebrities
(
名人
)”, who share lips on
vegan lifestyles.
Despite the rising of veganism, Laura Wyness, an
expert in diet and nutrition, said that meat is
very important for people's health. “A
strict vegan diet makes it difficult to
ge
t some minerals and
vitamins that your body needs,” Wyness
told BBC news.
However,
the
popularity
of
veganism
doesn't
seem
to
be
fading.
“It
feels
more
like
this
is
something
that
is
sticking
.”
said
an
expert
of
the
Vegan
Society,
a
UK
charity
that
pro
motes
veganism.
（

about veganism, “the

growing lifestyle
movement” in UK?

people.

further market research.

【分析】本文是一篇说明文
，研究表明，过去的十年里素食主义在英国增长迅
猛。这一增长的主要力量是那些年龄在
15-34
岁之间的年轻人。其原因可能是由于肉类加
工排放的热量大过世界上所有的汽车，火车和飞机的总和，他们认为杀死动物用作食物是
不对，年轻人想要保护环境。另外社会媒体的参与也导致了年轻的素食者的增加。

考查细节理解。根据第二段中的
“A

organization,
suggests
that over 542,000
Brits went vegan during the previous decade, an
increase of 360%.”
可知，英

故选
D
。
(2)
考查细节理解。根据第
五段中的
“Becoming
vegan was an
ethical (
道德的
) decision,”
他们认
为素食是道德上的决定，及第六段可知，社交媒体也被认为导致了
素食主义的增加的原因
之一，因而出现了一些所谓的素食名人来分享他们的生活方式，可
知素食主义者的增加不
是因为他们想成为道德名人，而是分享素食主义让他们成为
“

”
，这不是素

的原因，因此选
B
。
(3)
考查词义猜测。根据第六段中的
“ the popularity of veganism doesn't seem
to be fading. ‘It
feels more
like this is something that is
sticking.’”
根据转折连词
however
可知，前后两句意义
是相反的。前面说
“
素食主义的流行似乎并没有消退
”
，因此可
推断出后一句是反而会持续
下去。故
sticking
意为
”
持续

，可知，
lasting“

”
符合题意，故选
C
。

考查主旨大意。通读全文可知，本文主要讲述过去的十年里素食主义在英国增长迅猛。
这一增长的主要力量是那些年龄在
15-34

Mr.
Stapleton says safety was the company's main
concern. He says the designers solved the
safety issue by using overlapping
rotors to power the vehicle.
The company is testing a full-size
prototype of the Hoverbike, which will most likely
be used
first by the police and
emergency rescue teams.
In
New

Martin Aircraft
Company
is
also
testing
a
full-size
prototype
of
its
personal
flying device,
called the Jetpack. It can fly for more than 30
minutes, up to 1, 000 meters high and
reach a speed of 74 kilometers per
hour.
Peter Coker is the
CEO of Martin Aircraft Company. He said the
Jetpack
from the start
into
the actual structure itself, very similar to a
Formula One racing car.
The Jetpack uses a gasoline-powered engine that
produces two powerful jet streams. Mr. Coker
says it also has a parachute that would
be used, if there should be an emergency.

Watching
wooden
dolls
come
to
life
may
not
be
one
of
the
most
popular
forms
of
entertainment today, but with over
twenty years' experience, talented puppeteer
(
木偶表演者
)
Peter
Roberts has earned himself the title “master
puppeteer” because of his great ability to turn
puppets into believable, almost living
characters. “People are quite often surprised to
hear what I
do for living and have
little appreciation of puppy as a form of
entertainment. But while the exact
origins of puppet theatre are unknown,
it has been popular in many cultures and may have
been
the very first kind of theatre,”
he explains.
Roberts' shows are highly original. “A
puppet show can involve anything from
clowning(
傻逗
)
to
storytelling,” he says, Equally diverse are the
audiences he performs for. “Some are attracted
by the puppets themselves, while others
enjoy the dialogue.” Roberts believes that this
form of
entertainment can be
appreciated by people of all ages and
cultures.
Roberts'
interest
in
puppets
started
when
he
received
some
beautiful
glove
puppets
one
Christmas. He started putting on shows
with these for family and friends and then moved
on to
handmade
Chinese
string
puppets.
Learning
mostly
from
books
and
personal
experience,
he
explains, “I was already
spending most of my free time carving puppets and
putting on shows, so
I hardly noticed
the change from students to full-
time
professional puppeteer.”
The
puppets
are
designed
specifically
for
each
show,
which
is
extremely
time
consuming.
According to
Roberts, “Sometimes what you expect and what you
actually create in the end are
two very
different things. I've made some of my best
puppets 'accidentally'.
”
When most people hear
the word “puppetry”, they more than likely think
of a way of keeping
children
entertained at birthday parties. Certainly the
subject matter will be expected to be
light-
hearted
rather
than
serious.
However,
Roberts
wants
to
point
out
that
puppets
come
serious
messages sometimes.” he
says.
（

What do we know about puppetry in
the first paragraph?
A. It is a most popular form of
entertainment.

by
Peter
Roberts.
D. Its

as

A young woman sits alone in a café

This

phenomenon is not limited to coffee shops but

Feelings often run high where
insects are concerned, with many people even sick
when seeing
them, let alone touch or
swallow them. And yet insects present a huge
nutritional opportunity as
an
increasing global population seeks more sources of
food and feed.
Insects
have
generally
high
levels
of
animal
protein
and
key
micronutrients
with
lower
environmental
footprints than traditional alternatives, and they
can be raised on leftovers. But
cultural,
social
and
economic
problems
remain,
reports
an
article
published
today
in
Nutrition
Bulletin.
“Insects
present
a
nutritional
opportunity,
but
it
is
unclear
how
their
nutritional
quality
is
influenc
ed
by
what
they
are
fed,”
says
Darja
Dobermann,
a
researcher
at
the
University
of
Nottingham.
“In
ideal
conditions,
insects
have
a
smaller
environmental
impact
than
most
traditional western forms of animal
protein; less known is how to raise insect
production while
maintaining these
environmental benefits.”
“Studies overall show that insects
could make valuable economic and nutritional
contributions
to the food or fed
systems, but there are no clear regulations in
place to bring insects into such
supply
systems without them turning into a more expensive
version of poultry
（家禽）
for
food,”
says Dobermann.
The article highlights how insects
have been a source of food for hundreds of years
in more
than
100
countries
with
over
2,000
species
that
can
be
eaten;
in
central
Africa,
up
to
50%
of
dietary
protein
has
come
from
insects,
with
their
market
value
higher
than
many
alternative
sources of animal protein.
Insects need to be large enough to
make the effort of catching them worthwhile and
easy to
locate, preferably in
predictably large quantities. They are consumed at
various life stages, as raw,
fried,
boiled, roasted or ground food.
（

）
Which of
the following is the advantage of raising insects
for food?
A. It
will offer people work opportunities. B.
It is environmentally friendly.
C. It will replace traditional food.
D. It will result in less
leftovers
（

）
What can be inferred from
Dobermann's words?
A. Raising insects for food has become
popular.
B. Raising insects
can't solve food problems.
C. More
should
be
done
to
raise
insects
for
food.
D. More
money
can
be
made
by
raising
insects.
