問題詳情

六、閱讀測驗What did you eat for breakfast today? It probably wasn’t any insect (昆蟲) like ants, bees, or beetles. However, you may be surprised to know that scientists believe 50 to 80 percent of the world’s people eat insects every day.Take Australian aborigines (原住民) for example. Young insects, called grubs, are a common food for the people. In Bali, dragonflies are eaten as a favorite dish. Equally, in Mexico, the worm in a strong alcoholic (含酒精的) drink is considered the best part!Those examples may scare you, but a study says insects are rich in protein (蛋白質) and are actually good for human health. So, why do still so many people not eat insects? Perhaps it is because of personal opinions. In Western countries, insects have often done harm to crops and houses. This has made people hate insects rather than want to eat them. In addition, studies also say that the dislike of insects results from different eating habits. That is to say, it is only because we are not used to (習慣於……) eating them. Some people also point out that seafood, like shrimps, doesn’t taste so differently from insects.Eating insects in fact isn’t scary. Our fear of it perhaps all has its roots in where and how we grew up. If we can change our personal opinions on insects, they may be a good choice on our dinner table.
The passage is mainly about ________.
(A) why more and more people choose to eat insects for dinner
(B) why still so many people do not eat insects
(C) why eating insects is better than eating seafood
