新人教版必修2《Unit1 Cultural relics》2017年單元測試卷（3）

第二部分： 閱讀理解 （共兩節(jié)）第一節(jié)（滿分30分）閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個選項（A、B、C和D）中，選出最佳選項．

• 1．Insects （昆蟲） are a very healthy food．They have almost as much protein （蛋白質(zhì)） 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 uncomfortable．
     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 （好處） of eating insects．But they still have a lot of work to do．

  A．is not healthy

  （3）The long way eating insects has to go mainly results from

• 3．
  The Tower of London，not a single tower but a large group，was built to guard London．
  Besides William and Henry VIII，the tower's history has other famous names in British history．In 1389 a clerk of works （現(xiàn)場監(jiān)工員） named Geoffrey Chaucer-author of The Canterbury Tales-oversaw （監(jiān)督） the building of the Tower Wharf．In 1671 Colonel Blood tried to steal the crown jewels （皇冠上鑲的寶石） after overpowering the elderly Jewel House keeper．（Blood was caught but later pardoned．） Today the jewels remain in the tower as they have since Blood's day．
  For six centuries this place was also home to a group of animals from elephants to big cats．It stopped being used as an animals' home in 1835 and its animals were moved to the London Zoo．
  Today visitors can walk the walls，visit guard towers and see the crown jewels．Guards at the tower，popularly known as beefeaters，not only guard the tower but also give interesting tours that are among the most popular parts of any visit．
  How to Get There
  Trains and the Dockland Light Railway stop near the tower．Buses 15，42，78 and 100 reach the tower，and riverboats stop at Tower Pier．Taxis，bicycles，and foot power are also good ways to reach the tower．Driving is a less attractive choice because of the expensive parking．
  When to Go
  The tower is open all year round，except during the Christmas holidays （December 24 to 26）and January 1．School holidays and summertime are the busiest times．
  How to Visit
  As expected at a place that has seen so much history，there is enough of interest at the Tower of London to keep visitors busy for days．Stop at the Welcome Center for visitor information on everything from the crown jewels to family fun activities．
