短篇新聞
Post教授正在研發(fā)一種在實(shí)驗(yàn)室種植肉類(lèi)的辦法，因?yàn)樗J(rèn)為畜牧對(duì)環(huán)境和動(dòng)物都不利，而且也無(wú)法滿足人類(lèi)日益增長(zhǎng)的肉類(lèi)需求。
他的目標(biāo)是創(chuàng)造出一種樣式和口味與真實(shí)漢堡相似的人造漢堡。但是根據(jù)我從他實(shí)驗(yàn)室里看到的，該實(shí)驗(yàn)仍處于進(jìn)展當(dāng)中。
因?yàn)槿嗽烊馐怯酶杉?xì)胞培育而成，無(wú)色無(wú)味，因此食物專(zhuān)家用面包屑，焦糖和藏紅花為其加味、用果汁為其上色。所有用料添加完畢后進(jìn)行烹制，最后制成漢堡由兩位美食作家品嘗。
起初的試驗(yàn)階段表明這一漢堡的口味有所欠佳，但是Post教授表示，漢堡會(huì)越來(lái)越美味的。

問(wèn)題4.為什么食物專(zhuān)家要在人造肉里加果汁?
參考答案：
【小題3】B
【小題4】D
習(xí)題解析：
【小題3】新聞開(kāi)頭提到了 Post 教授在研發(fā)一種在實(shí)驗(yàn)室種植肉類(lèi)的辦法，隨后給出了具體原因：he believes thatlivestock farming is not good for the environment, not good for animals nor, he says, is itgoing to satisfy the growing demand for meat，即畜牧對(duì)環(huán)境和動(dòng)物都不利，而且也無(wú)法滿足日益增長(zhǎng)的對(duì)肉類(lèi)的需要。四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中，符合新聞原文的是 B項(xiàng)，故選 B。
【小題4】本題考查食品技師必須往種植的肉里邊添加果汁的原因。新聞中提到種植的肉顏色慘白而無(wú)味，隨后緊接著說(shuō)到 so food technologists have had to mix in breadcrumbs, caramel and saffron to addflavor and juice to add color，所以，往種植的肉里添加果汁的原因是為了增加顏色，故選 D。
