B.Obtaining.C.Learning. D.Recycling.解析B词义揣测题。由第三段中的"usetheinsects’excrement（粪便）foragriculture"可知，该公司把黑水虻的粪便应用于农业，再结合下文可知，该公司还从黑水虻的外骨骼中获得了抗菌生物材料。由此可推知，该公司从黑水虻身上获得的不只是与农业相关的产品，故画线词的含义应是"获得"，B项切题。3.Whatcanbeinferredaboutchitosan？A.Ithasawiderangeofuses.B.ItbringsfewprofitstoInsectta.C.Ithasbeenappliedtomasks.D.Itisfoundinthefly’sexcrement.解析A推理推断题。由最终一段中的"usedinmakeupandmedicine""fortheuseofthechitosaninitsskincareproducts...tomakeanantimicrobiallayerwithinitsproducts"可知，这种抗菌材料可用于化妆品和药物中，也可用于护肤产品中，还可用于口罩的抗菌层。由此可知，这种抗菌材料用途广泛，故选A。4.Whichisthebesttitleforthetext？A.InsectsprovideawaytorecyclefoodwasteB.NewtechnologyisdevelopedtofightfoodwasteC.InsecttaisusinginsectstoturnwasteintotreasureD.Singaporeisbenefitingfromtheinsect-basedindustry解析C标题归纳题。通读全文可知，文章的主要内容是：世界上每年都有大量的食物被奢侈，新加坡的一家名为Insectta的公司利用黑水虻解决食品废弃物，把黑水虻的粪便应用于农业，还从黑水虻的外骨骼中提取出了可用于化妆品和药品等的材料。C项做标题最佳。B[科技创新/]DinersinJapanmaysoonbeabletocuttheirsaltintakewithoutneedingtosacrifice（牺牲）flavor.Researchersrecentlyannouncedtheydevelopedelectricchopsticksthatincreasesaltinessoffoods.Co-developedbyMeijiUniversityprofessorHomeiMiyashitaanddrinkproducerKirinHoldingsCompany，Limited，thechopsticksimprovetastesusingelectricalstimulationandamini-computerattachedtoawrist."Thedeviceusesaweakelectricalcurrenttosendsodiumions（钠离子）fromfood，throughthechopsticks，tothemouthwheretheycreateasenseofsaltiness，"saidMiyashita."Asaresult，thesaltytasteincreasesby1.5times."Thetaste-improvingchopsticksmayhaveparticularrelevancetothetraditionaldietinJapan，whichtendstobehighinsalt.TheaverageJapaneseadulteatsabout10gramsofsalteachday.ThatisalmosttwotimestheamountsuggestedbytheWorldHealthOrganization.Highsodiumintakeislinkedtoincreasedcasesofhighbloodpressure，strokesandotherconditions."Topreventthesediseases，weneedtoreducetheamountofsaltwetake，"saidKirinresearcherAiSato.SatoaddedthatifJapanesepeopletrytoreducesaltintakeintheusualways，theywillneedtocutmanyoftheirfavoritefoodsfromtheirdiet.Otherwise，theywouldhavetoeatflavorlessfood."Iwanttooverturntheideathatlowsaltmeansnoflavor，"Miyashitadeclared."Thechopsticksmakeitpossibletokeepenjoyingthefoodswelove，andinahealthierway."Hewasconfidentthatthechopstickscanhelppeoplemakebetterdecisionsabouttheirdietandhopedtohavethemreadytosellasearlyasnextyear.Miyashitaandhisresearchteamhaveexploreddifferentwaysthattechnologycaninteractwithhumansenses.Hehasalsodevelopedatelevisionscreenthatapersoncanlick（舔）totastedifferentfoodflavors.Meanwhile，researchisalsounderwaytodevelopothereatingtoolswithspecialfunctionslikeelectricspoonsandforksusingtechnology.本文是说明文。日本的传统饮食盐味较重，过量的钠的摄入增加了日本人患高血压、中风和其他相关疾病的风险。最近，日本的探讨人员独创了一种电动筷子，这种筷子可以在不额外增加食物的盐含量的同时增加食物的咸味。【词语积累】intaken.（食物、饮料等的）摄取量，吸入量relevancen.关联，有关overturnv.推翻underwayadj.在进行中的【熟词生义】1.current常用义：adj.当前的，现在的文中义：n.电流2.condition常用义：n.状况，状态文中义：n.（因不行能治愈而长期患有的）疾病1.Whowouldprobablybeinterestedintheelectricchopsticks？A.Thosestickingtoabalanceddiet.B.Thosehavingeatingdisorders.C.Thosepreferringhomemadefood.D.Thosewantingtotakeinlesssalt.解析D微小环节理解题。由文章第一段中的"DinersinJapanmaysoonbeabletocuttheirsaltintake"可知，这种电动筷子对想要削减盐摄入量的人有吸引力，故D项正确。2.WhyistraditionalJapanesedietmentioned？A.TointroducewhatJapanesedietislike.B.Tostresshowimportantchopsticksareforit.C.ToshowwhatinfluenceithasontheJapanese.D.Toexplainwhyelectricchopsticksareinvented.解析D推理推断题。由题干中的"traditionalJapanesediet"可将解题信息定位至第三段。由本段对日本传统饮食的介绍可知，日本的传统饮食盐味较重。一般的日本成年人每天摄入的盐量几乎是世界卫生组织建议的两倍。高钠摄入量与高血压、中风和其他疾病病例的增加有关。假如日本人以平常的方式削减盐的摄入，他们将须要舍弃很多他们宠爱的食物。否则，他们将不得不吃寡淡无味的食物。再结合上文中提到的电动筷子可以增加食物的咸味可推知，文中提及日本传统饮食是为了说明探讨人员独创电动筷子的缘由。综上可知，本题选D。3.WhatdoesMiyashitaexpectoftheelectricchopsticks？A.They’llreachconsumersinthenearfuture.B.They’llhelpchangepeople’seatinghabits.C.They’llbedevelopedintovariousversions.D.They’llinspireawholenewlineofresearch.解析A微小环节理解题。由倒数其次段中的"thechopstickscanhelppeople...hopedtohavethemreadytosellasearlyasnextyear"可知，本题选A。4.Whatisthetextmainlyabout？A.Benefitsoflow-sodiumdiets.B.ImprovementstotheJapanesediet.C.Electricchopsticksincreasingsaltytaste.D.Aninventionmakingfoodmoredelicious.解析C主旨大意题。结合全文内容，尤其是第一段中的"Researchersrecentlyannouncedtheydevelopedelectricchopsticksthatincreasesaltinessoffoods"可知，本文主要介绍的是探讨者独创的一种能够增加食物咸味的电动筷子，故C项正确。二、七选五OnourseconddayinChina，we’dalreadybeenaskedtojointheschoolforsupper.Nervousandunsureofthefoodandtablemanners，wepolitelyagreed.1Andnowmyfirstdiningexperiencewouldbewiththeschoolstaff.Comparedwiththerestaurantsinmyhometown，Chineseonesareloudandbusy.2Theatmosphereiswarmandchaotic；peoplearehappy.Thetablesarebigandround.InChineseculturethemostimportantpersonsitsfacingthedoor.Platesoffoodsoonstartedarriving.AndthenIwishedI’dworkedonmychopstickskillsbefore.3Thismeansorderinglotsoffoodandencouragingyoutokeepeating.Italsomeansdrinkinganddrinking.You’llneverhaveanemptyglass.It’spolitetotryeverything，butifyouknowme，youwouldknowIdon’teateverything.Freshfish？Sure，anentirefishontheplatestaringatyouwhileyoupickatit.Notforme.4No，thanks！Thelungofapig？I’llpass.ItseemsthattheChinesereallyeateverything！EverydayI’mpushedoutofmycomfortzone.5Theexperienceitselfisquiteamazing.I’vele
