And what will they eat?To solve the problem, we should have to double our food pro
18、duction. We can also develop a diet of algae（海藻）, insects and meat grown in laboratories. Algae can grow very quickly at sea, in polluted water and in places that would normally kill food crops. They are already eaten widely in Japan and China and they are eaten by almost everything from shrimps to
19、blue whales. They can fix CO2 in the atmosphere and provide fats and sugars. Man-made meat looks like meat, feels like meat and it is meat, although its never been from a living, breathing animal. Instead, it is grown from cells in big containers. Moreover, studies show that producing man-made meat
20、will use far less water, energy and land. China has developed “green super rice”, a series of rice types which produce more grain and have stronger ability to fight against floods, salty water, insects and disease. We used traditional plant breeding（作物育种）techniques to cross-breed more than 250 rice
21、types. Green super rice, which is enough to feed an extra 100 million people, will be planted widely in the coming years. Insects like ants are not on most European menus but at least 1,400 kinds are eaten across Africa, Latin America and Asia. Now, with rising food prices and worldwide land shortag
22、es, such insects are getting more and more popular. Not only are many insects rich in protein（蛋白质）, low in fat and high in Ca and Fe, but insect farms need little space. And they can grow well on paper, algae and industrial wastes.56.In order to exist in the future, people have to _. A. move to othe

25、. In Asia about 100 million people may be faced with food shortages. C. Man-made meat doesnt look like meat but has the same taste as real meat. D.

Every year motor-cars are produced which go even faster and each new computer boats (吹嘘) of saving precious seconds in
27、handling tasks. All this saves time, but at a price. When we lose or gain half a day in speeding across the world in an airplane, our bodies tell us so. We get into uncomfortable feeling known as jet-lag; our bodies feel that they have been left behind on another time zone. Again, spending too long
28、at computers results in painful wrists and fingers. Mobile phones also have their dangers, according to some scientists; too much use may transmit harmful radiation into our brains, a consequence do not like to think about. However, what do we do with the time we have saved? Certainly not relax, or
29、so it seems. We are so accustomed to constant activity that we find it difficult to sit and do nothing or even just one thing at a time. Perhaps the days are long gone when we might listen quietly to a story on the radio, letting imagination take us into another world. There was a time when some peo
30、ples lives were devoted simply to the cultivation of the land or the care of cattle. No multi-tasking there; their lives went on at a much gentler pace, and in a familiar pattern. There is much that we might envy about a way of life like this. Yet before we do so, we must think of the hard tasks our
