First it was pets, then fish. Now it’s poultry and pigs. The【C1】________of animals allowed to feed on insects is growing. A new EU law【C2】________the use of insect protein in poultry and pig feed came into【C3】________earlier this month, which is a significant【C4】________for an industry keen to【C5】________ its way into the animal-feed business.
【C6】________a ban on processed animal protein was imposed in 2001 in the【C7】________of the "mad cow" crisis, soy and fishmeal have become the bedrock of animal feed in Europe. But their production needs lots of space and can be【C8】________to the environment, so feed manufacturers are looking for【C9】________.
Insects are just the ticket. They are reared in vertical farms that require little land or water, and they can be fed on agricultural by-products or food waste【C10】________rotting fruit and vegetables. They’re also a natural【C11】________. Most wild fish, birds and pigs eat insects.
The one thing going【C12】________them is price: insect protein is two to three times more expensive than fishmeal, and many times pricier than soy. Scaling up production may help close the gap. Rabobank, a Dutch lender,【C13】________that global insect production will reach 500,000 tonnes a year by 2030, and that prices will tumble.
Insect companies have【C14】________hard on their pitch. Research suggests insects may be more than mere feed,【C15】________growth rates and immune systems as well as filling stomachs. They also offer the【C16】________of a green, local protein.
Poultry and pig feed are by far the largest animal-feed markets, but they’re more【C17】________ than food for pets or fish. For that reason, says Antoine Hubert, CEO of Ynsect, a mealworm firm, insect protein will probably be used only in premium meat at first.
This year the European Food Safety Agency has ruled that three【C18】________of insects (yellow mealworm, locusts and house crickets) are【C19】________for humans to eat as well.【C20】________. however, people seem less keen on the idea than chickens and pigs.
【C7】
选项
A、wake
B、tail
C、end
D、completion
答案
A
解析
该空所在部分为in the________of the “mad cow” crisis,意思是“在疯牛病危机________”,其前面部分的内容为“自从2001年政府禁止使用加工动物蛋白”,可知由于疯牛病危机,政府才禁止使用加工动物蛋白,二者在逻辑上构成因果关系,同时在时间上也有先后关系,因此in the________of表达的含义应有“之后;作为结果”的意思。选项中能满足这一条件的只有wake,in the wake of意思是“(尤指不好的事)紧随某事而来;作为某事的结果”,故选项A为答案。BCD三个选项的意思分别为“尾巴”“末端;结束”“完成”。代入原文,都无法构成符合逻辑的搭配,且语法上也存在不合理之处,故全部排除。
