Right now, cows, buffalos, goats and sheep provide most of the world’s milk. But soon, people could get milk from roaches(蟑螂).That isn’t as crazy as it might sound. New research shows this “milk”is super-nutritious. What’s more, some scientists have already begun referring to a lot of insects as source of milk.In 2004, Subramanian Ramaswamy started studying milk crystals found inside the roach. At the time, he was teaching biochemistry at the University of Iowa City.To learn more about the milk crystal from roaches, the scientists used X-rays to look at the atoms in it. The data basically revealed the chemical recipe of the roach crystal. They showed that roach milk is a “complete food”. It contains sugar with a fatty acid stuck to it. Fatty acids are the building blocks of fats. The protein in the milk is also full of essential amino(氨基的) acids, which are the building blocks of proteins. Since our bodies can’t produce the “essential”ones, we need to get them from our food. And so do baby roaches.Barbara Stay, a biologist at Iowa University, also worked on the new study. She says the new data show that the roach milk is “three times more nutritious than cow’s milk and four times more nutritious than buffalo’s milk”.Ramaswamy would like to see roach milk turned into a protein supplement to feed hungry people. But not everyone is confident that it can be done.Marcel Dicke studies insects as a potential source of human food at Wageningen University in the Netherlands. Dicke says this is a “sound study”. However, in his opinion, “Extracting(提取) milk from roaches can only likely be done in a destructive way with only small quantities”. That means you’d have to raise and kill many bugs to get even tiny quantities of the milk.24. What is the opinion of the scientists about milk in Paragraph 2?A. Many insects are sources of milk.B. Milk is an important part of breakfast.C. Milk from insects is the most nutritious.D. Milk from insects is well accepted now.25. What can we know about the use of roach milk in life?A. It will replace the milk from animals like cows.B. Scientists think it the key to solving world hunger.1C. All people don’t think it can be used in life soon.D. Most people depend on roach milk from protein.26. According to Marcel Dicke, extracting insect milk on a large scale is ________.A. simpleB. challengingC. safeD. necessary27. What should be the best title for the text?A. Roach milk has been found scientificallyB. Roach milk could be produced industriallyC. Roach milk could be a new super foodD. Roach milk will be widely used soonCThere have always been a lot of commonly believed but false ideas about being fat and doing exercise. Some people believe that they can’t help putting on weight as they get older, while others hold that if they stop exercising, their muscles will turn into fat. Here are some more myths : I’ll never lose weight-I come from a fat familyWrong! While we can’t change the body type we are born with, we can’t blame our genes for making us fat. There’s plenty of evidence that fatness runs in families, and the main reason is that they share the same habits of eating too much and exercising too little.I am fat because I burn calories slowlyWrong! Fatness is not caused by a slow metabolism(新陈代谢). In fact, although fat people consume more energy than slim people, they also fail to realize how much they eat! Keeping a diary can help you work out your daily food intake more accurately.Exercise is boringWrong! Anything will become boring if you do it repetitively. The key is to develop a balanced and varied program that’s fun as well as progressive. If you enjoy a Sunday walk, take a different route. If you do yoga, try a tai chi class. If you like swimming, set yourself a distance or time challengeNo pain, no gainWrong! Exercise is not meant to hurt. Indeed, pain is your body telling you something’s wrong, and continuing to exercise could lead to serious injury. You may experience mild discomfort as you begin to exercise regularly, but this is your body adapting to the positive changes in your lifestyle and the aches should disappear relatively quickly. If you don’t, rest and seek medical advice.28. What does the author think about being fat?A. It is the family genes that make people fat.B. People are fat because they consume too little energy.C.A diary of exercise can prevent people from becoming fat.D. It is the consequence of people’s unbalanced lifestyle.29. According to the author, how can we make exercise more interesting?A. By taking varied exercise.B. By choosing simple exercise.C. By doing regular exercise.D. By sticking to outdoor exercise.30. What is the author’s opinion about “No pain, no gain”in exercising?A. Keeping fit is essentially a painful experience.B. Exercise should be stopped if continuous pain is felt.C. Pain in exercise is a precondition for reaching your goal.D. Getting used to pain leads to positive changes in your body.31.What is the purpose of the passage?A. To declare the importance of keeping fit.B. To clarify some misconceptions about fatness and exercise.C. To confirm what has long been believed about keeping fit.D. To explain some medical facts about being fat and doing exercise.DBoy Missing, Police PuzzledPolice in America have stepped up their search for a fifteen-year-old boy who went missing two days ago in Dover, New Hampshire. This incident has received great interest due to reports of strange lights in the sky and of alien visits around the time the boy disappeared.Witnesses say they saw Justin walking towards his house at 10.45 p.m. Justin’s sister, Kelley, aged nine ,says she heard her brother return home at 11 p.m.“I was getting ready for bed,”Kelly said. “Justin went straight to his room. I didn’t see him, but I heard him put on his favorite CD. I went to bed, and was woken up around midnight by a bright light outside my window.”At first,the young girl thought it was the light of the full moon,but then she realized that it was moving and coming closer.“I pulled back the curtains and saw a large spaceship flying outside. It had blue lights all around it, and there were many windows. Standing inside were lots of strange creatures with white skin and large black eyes. I was frightened!”Kelly said that the spaceship then moved around to the side of the house, towards her brother’s bedroom. “There was a flash of light and I heard Justin shout, and then the UFO just disappeared.I haven’t seen Justin since. I’m sure the aliens took him.”Kelly then ran and woke up her mother. However, since Mrs. Foster thought that Justin was spending the night with a friend, she assumed that Kelly was having a bad dream, and sent her back to bed. Mr. Foster was working that night on his road construction job,and was not home when these events occurred. When Justin did not show up for lunch the next day, Mrs. Foster became worried and told her husband to call the police.Some people in Dover also say that they saw aliens that night. “It’s happened to me!”said Mrs. Mavis Wood. “The aliens took me aboard the UFO so that they could do research on me.2Luckily, they returned me home without any injuries. The whole experience was terrible! I haven’t been sleeping well since I returned home. I think Justin was taken away by them, too.”When asked about the possibility that Justin was taken by aliens, Detective Sam Peterson, who has taken charge of the case,told journalists, “Sometimes people make up such amazing stories. There’s really no hard evidence that aliens took him. So, while we have not dismissed the idea, we are looking into other possibilities as well. We will not give up until we find out what happened.”32. The reason why people were interested in the disappearance of the child is that____A. The lost boy was 15 years old.B. The police advised them to do so.C. The disappearance might have something to do with the UFO and the alien.D. All of the above33. We can infer that the boy might go missing______.A. in his own roomB. on the playgroundC. in Kelly’s roomD. in his brother’s room34. What is the attitude of the police to the disappearance of the boy?_____A. They can’t make sure that Justin was taken by aliens.B. They think it possible for some people to make up an amazing story.C. They are looking at other possibilities, such as murder.D. All of the above.35. We can know_______.A. the police have known the cause of the boy’s disappearance.B. the police haven’t found convincing evidence about the boy’s disappearance.C. the police will catch the aliens who took away the boy.D. the police won’t get any information about the child’s disappearance.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
