Why did the speaker say we might be surprised at a yuppie dinner party?
Yuppies are young people who earn a lot of money and live in a style that is too expensive for most people. If you are invited to a yuppie dinner party, don’t be surprised if you are offered freshly -cooked insects as a first course. While the idea of eating fried insects fills most of us with horror, insect eating is becoming highly fashionable. For example, in the media industry, successful executives are often seen to eat fried or boiled insets from time to time while working at their desks. These safe -to-eat insects can be found and ordered on the Internet. And young people are logging on to exotic food websites and ordering samples of prepared insects to serve at their dinner parties. Al- though the idea of eating insects is probably disgusting to most of us, few people would claim that pigs, chickens, and some kinds of seafood we often eat are examples of great duty. One day, insects could be marketed and sold as the food item in supermarkets. According to their fans, they are not only high in protein and low in fat, but also very tasty. But until our attitudes to food change fundamentally, it seems that insect-eaters will remain a selected few.

A、It’s easy to prepare.
B、It’s tasty and healthful.
C、It’s exotic in appearance.
D、It’s safe to eat.
答案

出题点在文章中间表原因的部分。吃昆虫是因为昆虫高蛋白而且香脆可口“According to their fans,they are not only high in protein and low in fat,but also very tasty.”。答案选B。
