4 . When you think of insects (昆虫), the first word that comes to mind probably won’t be “edible (可食用的)”. Surprisingly, what you may consider an insect may sound like a great meal to another. In Africa and the Middle East, insects such as grasshoppers and mealworms are a common dish. Many Asians also like eating insect dishes.

The idea of replacing (代替) pork, chicken, or beef with insects might sound unpleasant, but eating these small insects can be beneficial to both yourself and the environment.

There are over 2,100 types of edible insects in the world. Many of the insects that are eaten by humans are quite nutritious (有营养的). And they can be eaten in different ways: roasted over an open fire, freeze-dried, or cooked. In fact, insects can be added to various foods, and we likely won’t even notice the difference.

The biggest advantage is that the cost of raising insects is very small. Compared to cows, insects produce eight times fewer carbon emissions (碳排放物) and need six times less water to keep.

To add to that, insects can be fed with waste products. Insect waste can also be repurposed into soil fertilizer (土肥). And unlike traditional farms which take up about 80% of all farming land, insect farms are relatively small and can save space for other uses.

All this makes insect farms more profitable, with little wastage of money and resources.

As our world’s population increases towards 9 billion by 2050, traditional farming will not be enough to meet its growing food needs.

Some companies have already begun experimenting with insects in their food products. Mealworm burger patties, protein powder, and gummy sweets are just a few of the new food creations. And a few months ago, the European Union (EU) said yes to insects for human consumption (食用)!

1. What can we learn about insect eating?

A．It’s popular in Africa.	B．It’s liked by the author.
C．It’s unpleasant for Asians.	D．It’s accepted by few people.

2. What is the advantage of insect farming over traditional farming?

A．It is simpler.	B．It costs less.
C．It requires no skills.	D．It needs no manpower.

3. Which of the following statements might the author agree with?

A．Insects will replace beef in hamburgers by 2050.

B．Insects will be humans’ major food choices by 2050.

C．Insects will help meet the growing food needs of humans.

D．Insects will become more nutritious with modern farming.

4. What is the EU’s attitude towards insects becoming humans’ food choices?

A．Uncaring.	B．Thankful.
C．Supportive.	D．Doubtful.

6 . Stomach flu (肠胃炎) is one of the most unpleasant of the common diseases.    1     That’s especially true if someone in your family has it. But there are some things you can do to avoid catching it.

You can prevent stomach flu by washing your hands often. Use hot water and soap, and spend time scrubbing (擦洗). Using hand sanitizer (消毒杀菌剂) is better than nothing, but it doesn’t work well against stomach flu.     2    

The virus (病毒) that causes stomach flu is hard to kill. Normal cleaners won’t always get rid of it. But cleaning your house can stop you from catching it. So mix bleach (漂白剂) with water, and use that to clean surfaces.     3    

    4     For example, dishwashers are better at killing viruses than washing dishes by hand, because they keep dishes hotter for longer. Besides, many viruses can live in your washing machine. So wash clothes with hot water and use bleach, if possible. You may even want to run the washing machine with no clothes, just hot water and bleach.

Once you’re feeling better, don’t return to work or school right away.     5     If you had a fever, wait at least 24 hours after it ends before going out. This will help protect other people from getting sick.

A．Hot water is helpful in killing viruses.

B．You probably won’t want to eat much.

C．It spreads easily, which can make it hard to avoid.

D．By following these tips, you can help stop it from spreading.

E．That’s because hand sanitizer mostly kills bacteria, not viruses.

F．You can still spread the disease for a few days after you feel better.

G．If someone in your family is sick, clean things that person has touched.

7 . “Do you have Wi-Fi?” It’s my most-asked question when visiting new cities. Nowadays, having access to Wi-Fi is essential if you plan on making the most of any trip abroad. But far too often I spend $ 5 for a tiny cup of coffee just to use a café’s Wi-Fi and charging port. Replacing this costly exchange with their interpretation of a city center, the designer of Kuube, a Hungarian startup, has created a smart bench equipped with all the necessities that a modern-day traveler might need to comfortably move through any city.

Kuube’s smart bench comes in three sizes. All come with USB ports, wireless chargers, and a Wi-Fi hotspot function-free for everyone. All three smart benches charge up thanks to solar panels, which makes them easily movable.

First comes Kuube^ECO, the smallest of the three smart benches. It’s a three-seater that comes equipped with two USB ports and one wireless charger. It has unlimited Internet access thanks to its Wi-Fi hotspot. The bench with one display screen continuously monitors its environment, such as changes in UV levels or air pressure — displaying them on its monitor for those interested. Then comes Kuube^NANO, the middle child that can seat up to four people and comes with all the same offerings as Kuube^ECO. And finally comes the largest option, Kuube^PLUS. This smart bench offers more of a group, or family seating style and can accommodate up to eight people. It offers four charging options and two display screens.

The three smart benches all have an aluminum chassis (铝制底座) that’s recyclable and are made from natural ash wood for the seating sections. Kuube is clearly a sustainability-focused startup that’s combining design and technology to make cities and parks friendlier to everyone.

1. What does the author think of buying coffee to access Wi-Fi?

A．Expensive.	B．Enjoyable.
C．Time-consuming.	D．Out of date.

2. Which of the following can describe the smart benches?

A．They are designed specifically for travelers.	B．They offer limited Internet access for now.
C．They charge little for charging phones.	D．They are eco-friendly and mobile.

3. What can Kuube^NANO provide?

A．Two USB ports.	B．Two display screens.
C．Seats for eight people.	D．Four wireless chargers.

4. Where is the text most likely taken from?

A．A guidebook.	B．A magazine.
C．An advertisement.	D．A novel.

8 . Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been in the news a lot lately. And according to a recent report from the McKinsey Global Institute, roughly half of today’s work activities could be automated (自动的) by 2055. Could “teaching” be on that list?

Computers are capable of levels of calculations we could only dream of achieving with our minds alone. But when a human teacher can connect to a student by having “been there”, through heartfelt listening, they can inspire their students to learn, create, and excel. Even AI with advanced technology can’t do this.

So, chances are good that your job is safe for the near future. But it is going to that change, and AI is going to be a part of education. Hopefully, robots will be joining us quite soon ... as teaching assistants.

Recently, a Georgia Tech professor built an AI teaching assistant for his classroom, which allowed him to more effectively manage over 400 students all over the world. His AI tends to answer more routine questions, freeing him to deal with some of the more complex problems from students.

A variety of robots are also being used in South Korea and Japan as a resource to supplement language learning. Students can go through any variety of conversational practices, and the AI can monitor mistakes in usage and pronunciation. In fact, research shows that these programs can help resolve issues like shyness, confidence, and frustration that can arise when practicing repetitively with a teacher: a robot will not get tired, no matter how many mistakes a child makes.

Surprisingly, the West is much more hesitant about embracing the integration of robots and AI in our classrooms, but the tides are quickly turning. Should you start packing up your desk? Absolutely not. The bottom line is that these technologies work best when paired with an active human teacher. But it certainly could make your job easier and more efficient.

1. The author’s attitude towards human teachers’ future can be described as ________.

A．worried

B．optimistic

C．doubtful

D．confused

2. What does the author want to show by giving the example of Georgia Tech professor?

A．AI will control future teaching.	B．AI will make no big difference.
C．AI will do more difficult jobs.	D．AI will greatly help teachers.

3. In what way does a robot do better than a human teacher?

A．Being patient	B．Being creative.
C．The ability to inspire.	D．The ability to communicate.

4. What is the author’s final conclusion about future teaching?

A．Robots will play a leading role.	B．Teachers will be replaced by robots.
C．Robots will be teachers’ good friends.	D．Teachers will teach without leaving home.
