28、在短文的空格内填入适当的词,使其内容通顺。每空格限填一词,首字母已给。
One of the first science fiction books published was Jules Verne’s Journey to the Centre of the Earth, written in 1864. This popular book marked the b【1】 of our strong interest in science fiction. Since then, there have been books, magazines, computer games, radio and TV shows and films.
A science fiction story doesn’t just focus on the future; it focuses on the use of science in our future. Sometimes things that are written in science fiction stories a【2】 become true. Star Trek first appeared on television in 1966. The crew of the spaceship spoke to each other on small mobile devices. A robot starred in the 1927 film, Metropolis.
In the 1982 film, Blade Runner, video communication was s【3】 as an exciting thing of the future. This is one of the reasons why science fiction is so popular. It lets us think about how our world might be in the future. It gives us ideas about how we might make things on the Earth better than they are n【4】. It gives us possible solutions to problems.
A【5】 reason is that it begins to answer some of the biggest questions in life, questions like Are we alone in the universe? What could we do better? Science fiction gives us the chance to think about these questions and c【6】 possible answers.
People also like to get away from their daily lives through science fiction. It is d【7】 to imagine a better way of doing this than reading a fantastic story about a place you have never been to and creatures you cannot imagine. It does this by making us feel that anything is possible.
Perhaps science fiction could also make us feel lucky to live here on the Earth. Perhaps it could even make us take better care of our planet.

Company Creates First 3D-Printed Fish
Do you enjoy seafood? Many of us do, but overfishing is a problem. There are many ways to respond to this. One is to only eat seafood that is caught through scientific fishing methods. Another is not to eat fish at all. However, a new ________ is 3D-printed fish, which may offer a new way to solve the problem and perhaps be healthier to eat. It sounds like ________, but it’s happening now. “The product tastes, and melts in your mouth exactly like fish should,” says Mihir Pershad, the CEO of Umami Meats.
Umami Meats, a Singapore company, cultivates stem cells (干细胞) taken from live fish. Stem cells are grown in labs for 2 weeks and ________ muscle and fat samples (样本) after another week. The second company, Steakholder Foods, uses the muscle and fat samples in high-tech 3D printers. They are able to ________ the shape and size of the piece of “fish” first, and then mix muscles and fat together. This makes the final product nearly the same as real fish.
The ability to create 3D-printed fish is an incredible technological achievement. Umami Meats focuses on helping protect some endangered fish like tuna, reducing the need for overfishing. 3D-printed fish is ________ of harmful chemicals that are common in a lot of seafood. It can also be produced quite cheaply compared to live fish. However, a lot of research on the ________ of eating 3D-printed food needs to be done. This is why restaurants aren’t allowed to serve these products now. The earliest we will see them is likely some time in 2024.
