A report by the Adam Smith Institute says meat made in a laboratory is better for the environment and would be cheaper than meat produced from farm animals.Need for meat around the world is expected to increase by 70% by the year 2050. So could people be eating lab-grown meat in the future? Usually animals like cows are killed to produce the meat that people eat, but scientists have found a way to make meat in a laboratory without killing any animals.Animals are made up of cells (细胞). Scientists worked out how to take cells from an animal, like a cow, and multiply (繁殖) them in a dish. In the end from one tiny cell, tens of billions of cells can be grown. These join together to form meat.In 2013, the first hamburger grown this way was eaten in London. It took a year to produce and cost over 200, 000 to make. Dr Mark Post, who created the worlds first hamburger from meat grown in a lab, told the BBC it tastes exactly the same as the meat we know. When two food critics (评论家) tried the burger in 2013, one said it was close to meat and another said it tasted like a real hamburger. Its not just beef that is being created; companies are also working on other meat like turkey and chicken.The Adam Smith Institute says moving away from the present way meat is produced would help reduce greenhouse emissions (排放) by up to 96% and free up 99% of the land used in farming worldwide. They also think it will reduce chances of food poisoning (中毒) because the meat is grown under such controlled conditions. Jamie Hollywood from the Adam Smith Institute also told the BBC lab-grown meat could be a lot cheaper. He says the price has gone down in five years from 200, 000 to 8, so in the future it could be even less.（1）The main idea of Paragraph 3 is _. A . what lab-grown meat isB . how lab-grown meat is madeC . what lab-grown meat tastes likeD . when people can eat lab-grown meat（2）The writer mentions two food critics in Paragraph 4 to show that _. A . lab-grown meat is cheaperB . chicken meat can be made in the labC . lab-grown meat tastes similar to animal meatD . English people first tasted lab-grown meat（3）The writer probably agrees that _. A . lab-grown meat will cause a lot of problemsB . lab-grown meat tastes better than animal meatC . making lab-grown meat will cost too much moneyD . lab-grown meat can help solve the worlds food crisis（4）Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A . Could lab-grown meat be the future of food?B . What does lab-grown meat taste like?C . When could people eat lab-grown meat?D . What is lab-grown meat and how is it made?19. （6分）（2016苏州）请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。CDuring my first twoweeks at the University of California, Berkeley, I experienced some unexpected,funny, and sometimes embarrassing(令人尴尬的) situations.

For example, in only 24 hours I bought a mobile phoneand made the lease(租约) agreement for aflat. Whats more, almost all the shops are open on Sunday, which is very practicalfor me.The first thing thatsurprised me is that students may come late to class. They freely enter and leavethe classroom many times during class, In France, students respect the teachers lesson, so they are never late and they leave the classroom only at the end of theclass.The local people inCalifornia are in general very nice, open and active, However, I am not totallyused to their habits yet. Indeed, I was used to shaking my friends hands everyday in France. During my second day at Berkeley, I shook the hand of one of my classmateswhom I had met the day before and he told me “I think we already met!”Another funny storyhappened during the first party I attended: A girl that I meet before came to hugme. I thought she wanted to kiss me like we usually do in France to say hello. SoI kissed her and she seemed a little bit embarrassed.I live a great experienceat present, and I would just encourage any student to become a member in a programat UC, Berkeley.（1）According to the writers advice, before students study in America, they should .A . make a lease agreement for a flatB . leave their warm clothes at homeC . pay attention to the local weatherD . prepare a phone as early as possible（2）When the writers classmate said “I think we already met!”, he meant .A . he and the write had known each other in FranceB .
