24、The problem: Two in ten children in the US are fat and three in five adults in the US are fat, too.

The solution(解决方案): Turning off the TV is a great way to improve the health of you and your family. There are two ways to be healthy—exercise and healthy eating. Watching less TV can help you with both.

27、

It looks like a steak. It cooks like a steak. And according to the scientists who made and ate it, the thick and juicy meat smells and tastes like a steak. But appearances can be deceptive. Unlike any steak found on a menu or store shelf today, this one didn’t come from an animal.

Scientists printed it with a bioprinter, a new kind of 3D printer. The difference is that this type uses cells as a form of living ink. “The technology involves the printing of actual living cells,” explains biologist Neta Lavon, who helped develop the steak. Those cells are grown in a lab. They arc given nutrients and kept at a temperature that lets them keep growing. Using real cells this way, she says, is a real innovation over earlier “new meat” products. This allows the printed product to look, smell and taste much like a real steak.

Researchers call this meat “cultured”. Interest in it has grown in recent years, partly because the technology shows it is possible. Supporters say that if meat can be printed, then no animal would need to lose its life to become human food.

But don’t look for these products on the store shelves just yet. Making meat this way is much harder—and therefore costs more—than raising and killing an animal. “The technology will need to reduce the cost greatly before cultured meat will be widely available,” says Kate Krueger, a cell biologist in Cambridge, Mass.

One of the most expensive parts, says Krueger, is the cell-growth medium. This mix of nutrients keeps the cells alive and dividing. The medium contains expensive ingredients called growth factors. Unless the cost of growth factors drops, says Krueger,“cultured meat can’t be produced at comparable prices to animal meat.” If scientists can find lower-cost methods, this technology may stand a chance of giving beef without the moo.

【1】The underlined word “deceptive” in Paragraph 1 probably means _________.

A．changeable

B．misleading

C．traditional

D．imperfect

【2】Cultured meat is a kind of meat that __________.

A．is grown from living cells in a lab

B．is made by raising and killing animals

C．has more nutrients than animal meat

D．keeps growing by changing temperatures

【3】What’s Kate Krueger’s opinion about the new technology?

A．It will reduce the cost of meat.

B．It will help to stop killing animals.

C．It needs to be further improved.

D．It may be put into the market soon.

【4】What’s the best title of this passage?

A．A New Discovery of Cells

B．A Useful and Low-Cost Method

C．Ways to Sell Cultured Meat

D．No Killing Animals to Make Meat

28、阅读下面短文，按照句子结构的语法性和上下文连贯的要求，在空格处填入一个适当的词或使用括号中词语的正确形式填空。

Once upon a time, there was a prince who wanted to marry a princess, but she would have to be a real princess. He traveled all over the world 【1】 (find) one, but nowhere could he get what he wanted. There were many princesses, but it was difficult to find out if they were real 【2】 (one).

“Well, we will soon find that out,” thought the old queen. But she didn’t say 【7】 (something). Instead, she laid a pea on the bottom of the bedroom bed. Then she took twenty mattresses and laid them on the pea and then twenty quilts on top of the mattresses. In the morning, the queen asked how the girl had slept. “Oh, very 【8】 (bad)!” said the girl. “Only God knows what was in the bed. I was lying on something hard. Now I am black and blue all over my body.”
