Your Bean Steak (素肉排), Sir!
What sort of food are we likely to be eating in the year 2000?
Most people, when you ask them a question like that, either say: " There won't be any left, " or "Whatever it is, there won't be much taste in it." Of course, there are good reasons for being worried about the world's food supplies in the future.Nevertheless, not all the experts share these worries.
For one thing, although the world's population is rising fast, food production is keeping pace with it, even in developing countries.It is therefore argued that the main reason why people are hungry is not that there is a world food shortage but that methods of cultivation are not sufficiently advanced in some areas and the food is not fairly distributed ( 分配 ).
This does not mean, however, that our diet ( 饮食 ) will go on being the same.In many industrialized countries, people feed animals with grain to produce high-quality beef, even though the grain would feed the human population, and use fishmeal to fatten pigs to improve the quality of bacon.While not many of us would like fishmeal for lunch, its nutritional value is high and the unattractive fish it is made from can be presented to the public in colorful packets of fish fingers.
By the year 2000, many of these problems will have been solved.Scientists are already capable of making steaks from soy beans.It is quite obvious that there will still be enough to eat, if we are not too particular about where the food comes from and what it is made of.

If you go to a fast food restaurant.you will probably see a lot of teenagers. Today,many teenagers are overweight,and some of.this is because of their bad eating habits., Most teenagers love food with a lot of fat,oil,salt,and sugar. People often call this kind of food "junk food".
But. bad eating habits go beyond fast food. We find many teenagers eat unhealthily. Some don't have breakfast before they go to school. During the day,some don't have a proper meal for lunch. In a recent survey at one school,scientists found that over two-thirds of the students didn't follow a healthy diet. They didn't like vegetables,and many of them didn't like to eat fruits. They preferred to eat food with a lot of salt,sugar,or fat.
Parents today also worry about their children's diet. Some doctors give the .following ad-vice :
★Teenagers shouldn't eat too much junk food.
★ Teenagers shouldn’t eat food with too much salt. Salt can cause high blood pressure(高血压) in the future.

第8题:
In the United States, 30 percent of the adult population has a "weight problem". To many people, the cause is obvious: we eat too much. But scientific evidence does little to support this idea. Going back to the America of 1910, we find that people were leaner than today, yet they ate more food. In those days people worked harder physically, walked more, used machines much less, and didn't watch TV.
Several modern studies, moreover, have shown that fatter people do not eat more on average than thinner people. In fact, some investigations, such as a 1979 study of 3, 545 London office workers, report that, on balance, fat people eat less than slimmer people.
Studies show that slim people are more active than fat people. A study by a research group at Stanford University found the following interesting fact:
The more the man ran, the greater loss of body fat.
The more they ran, the greater their increase in food intake.
Thus, those who ran the most ate the most, yet lost the greatest amount of body fat.
1、What kind of physical problem do many adult Americans have?____
A、They are too slim.
B、They work too hard.
C、They are too fat.

C、100.
D、150.
3、Is there scientific evidence to support that eating too much is the cause of a "weight problem"?____
A、Yes, there is plenty of evidence.
B、Of course, there is some evidence to show this is true.
C、There is hardly any scientific evidence to support this.
D、We don't know because the information is not given
4、In comparison with the adult American population today, the Americans of ____.
A、ate more food and had more physical activities
