Instead of taking her to my church, I took her to her old neighborhood church where all her friends were. We got there early and I got her a seat where her friends could see her as they came in. Then soon some of her friends came to the church and they rushed over to greet her and sit with her.

They have almost as much protein (蛋白质) as meat from a pig or cow and are low in fat. Eating insects is also very good for the environment since they need less land and water than larger animals. Marcel Dicke, who studies insects, explained in a talk how insects also produce more meat from the food they eat. For example, imagine a farmer feeds a cow 10 pounds of food. Those 10 pounds of food produce about 1 pound of meat for people to eat. However, imagine the farmer gives a certain number of insects 10 pounds of food. Those 10 pounds of food produce 9 pounds of meat for people to eat! Eating more insects can also help people in poor areas. Many people can raise and sell insects, which can provide jobs and food. But insects will not replace (替代) animal meat very quickly. First, people in some countries would have to change how they think about eating insects. Many people in North America and Europe eat a lot of meat like beef and pork. But they do not traditionally eat insects. In fact, for many people in the west, eating insects sounds crazy! They believe insects are dirty and dangerous. Insects make them feel unfortable.Some people are trying to deal with this problem. For example, David George Gordon wrote a book named “The Eat-A-Bug Cookbook”, which tries to show people that insects can be delicious. Other insect experts travel around telling people about the benefits (好处) of eating insects. But they still have a lot of work to do.32. Eating insects _.A. is not healthy B. makes people put on fatC. helps protect large animals D. is environmentally friendly33. The example of Marcel Dicke is given to show _.A. the high cost of food production B. its quite easy for farmers to raise insectsC. raising insects is a good choice for farmersD. the different ways of feeding cows and insects34. The long way eating insects has to go mainly results from _.A. their terrible taste B. peoples old beliefsC. family traditions D. eating methods35. We can infer from David and other insect experts that _.A. people can make a lot of money from insects B. insects should be better protected C. people should eat more insects D. its dangerous to eat insects 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白出的最佳选项。选项中有两个多余项。 36 People often dream of a perfect holiday with white sands, blue beaches and so on.
