11、urther complicated by the impact of climate change on agriculture. That is why some people advocate an unusual way to boost the food supply and feed people sustainably by eating less meat and more insects.About 2 billion people already eat bugs. Mexicans enjoy chilly-toasted grasshoppers. Thais tuck

12、 into cricket stir-fries and Ghanaians snack on termites. Insects are slowly creeping on to Western menus as novelty items, but most people remain squcamish(拘謹).Yet there are three reasons why eating insects makes sense.First, they are healthier than meat. There are nearly 2000 kinds of edible insec

13、ts, many of them packed with protein, calcium, fiber, iron and zinc. A small serving of grasshoppers can contain about the same amount of protein as a similar sized serving of beef, but has far less fat and far fewer calories.Second, raising insects is cheap, or free. Little technology or investment

14、 is needed to produce them. Harvesting insects could provide livelihoods to some of the worlds poorest people.Finally, insects are a far more sustainable source of food than livestock. Livestock production accounts for nearly a fifth of all greenhouse-gas emissions, thats more than transport. By con

15、trast, insects produce relatively few greenhouse gases and raising them requires much less land and water. And they eat almost anything.Despite all this, most Westerners find insects hard to swallow.One solution is to use protein extracted from bugs in other products such as ready meals and pasta sa

16、uces. Not having to look at the bugs and emphasizing the environmental benefits might make the idea of eating insects a bit more palatable.1、What is the direct reason why some people advocate eating insects?AInsufficient food supply BClimate changeCThe rapid increase of population DInsects high nutr

17、ition2、From the passage, we can infer that .Aeating insects is healthier than eating beefBeating insects is popular among westernersCeating insects can help people lose weightDeating insects causes less damage to the environment3、How can we make it more acceptable to eat insects?ABy closing your eye

18、s when eating insectsBBy eating insects together with other foodCBy putting insects nutrients into other food productsDBy considering the environmental benefits of eating insects22（8分）Early in the Iliad, Homers epic poem（史詩）about the legendary, Trojan War, there occurs a famous anecdote known as the

19、 catalogue of ships, which names all the Greek leaders and contingents(小分隊) who came to fight at Troy. Before unfolding this impressive muster roll (花名冊)，Homer makes a special, public appeal to the Muses to ensure he gets the facts right:Tell me now, Muses, who have your homes on Olympus- for you ar

20、e goddesses, and ever-present, and know all things, and we hear only rumour: nor do we know anythingThese lines reflect a central claim of epic poetrythat through the inspiration of the Muses, daughters of Memory, it can preserve the knowledge of people and the events of the past a formidable power

21、in the non-literate, oral cultures in which the Iliad evolved. The Iliad was composed around 750-700 BC, but its origins lie at least some five centuries earlier, deep in the Mycenaean Bronze Age-the world the Iliad poetically evokes.The Iliad is keenly aware of its role as the keeper of memory, and

22、 credibility is central to its storytelling. The epic is a work of fiction, and relates the events of a few weeks in the tenth and final year of the Trojan War fought between Greeks and Trojans over beautiful Helen, the Greek queen who deserted her husband to elope with a Trojan prince. Its cast of

23、characters includes not only warriors and their captives and families, but the immortal Olympian gods, who perform many supernatural acts in the course of their eager participation in the action around Troy.The Iliad has the reputation for being an exclusively(專門地) male epic, weak on female characte

24、rs, but to choose only one exampleHomers delicate characterization of Helen as a woman driven by reluctant remorseful(悔恨的) passion is as hauntingly（縈繞心頭地）credible as any Anna Karenina.Longinus, a scholar in the 1st Century AD wrote that in recording as he does the wounding of the gods, their quarrel

25、s, vengeance, tears, imprisonment and all their passions Homer has done his best to make the men in the Iliad gods and gods men. The scene between Achilles and Priam displays this inversion and crystallises what the Iliad poets had learned in the course of the epics Journey. That the gods we worship

26、 might not answer, and on occasion humanity must rise to fill their place. That glory is closely associated with painful loss. That the victor shares the humanity of the most vulnerable of the vanquished（戰敗者）; that there is no such thing as pure victory in war.1、The Iliad about the legendary Trojan

27、War, might date back to _.Athe third century BC Bthe seventh century BCCthe eighth century BC Dthe thirteenth century BC2、According to the passage,_.Abeing reliable is essential to the storytelling of the IliadBTrojan War between Greeks and Trojans lasted over a decadeCTrojan War ended owning to the

28、 Olympian gods absenceDbeautiful Helen is a woman worth respecting in the Iliad3、Why does the Iliad have the reputation for being an exclusively male epic?ABecause it focuses only on men and war.BBecause too few females were well depicted.CBecause its cast of characters includes only males.DBecause

29、Helen was described as a passionate woman.4、Which of the following statements doesnt agree with the authors idea?APure victory in war does not exist at all.BGlory is naturally accompanied with saddening loss.CThe victor gains everything without any emotional loss.DBoth the victor and the vanquished

40、ean or into rivers that lead to the ocean.
