In a small laboratory at the Medical. University of South Carolina, Dr. Vladimir Mironov has been working for a decade to grow meat. A developmental biologist and tissue engineer, Dr. Mironov, is one of only a few scientists worldwide involved in bioengineering ’cultured’ meat. It’s a product he believes could help solve future global food crises resulting from shrinking amounts of land available for growing meat the old-fashioned way.
"Growth of cultured meat is also under way in the Netherlands," Mironov told Reuters in an interview, "but in the United States, it is science in search of funding and demand." The new National Institute of Food and Agriculture won’t fund it, the National Institutes of Health won’t fund it, and NASA funded it only briefly, Mironov said.
"It’s classic disruptive technology," Mironov said. "Bringing any new technology on the market, on average, costs $1 billion. We don’t even have $1 million."
Director of the Advanced Tissue Biofabrication Center in the Department of Regenerative Medicine and Cell Biology at the medical university, Mironov now primarily conducts research on tissue engineering, or growing of human organs.
"There’s an unpleasant factor when people find out meat is grown in a lab. They don’t like to associate technology with food," said Nicholas Genovese, a visiting scholar in cancer cell biology. "But there are a lot of products that we eat today that are considered natural that are produced in a similar manner," Genovese said.
Questions 30 to 32 are based on the passage you have just heard.
30. What does Dr. Mironov think of bioengineering cultured meat?
31. What does Dr. Mironov say about the funding for their research?
32. What does Nicholas Genovese say about a lot of products we eat today?
选项
A、They are not as expensive as before.
B、They are not as natural as we believed.
C、They are less healthy than we expected.
D、They are more nutritious and delicious.
答案
B
解析
短文结尾Genovese说,很多我们目前正在食用并被认为是天热的食物都produced in a similar manner(是以类似的方法生产出来的),言外之意是说很多我们正在食用的食物并不像想的那样是天然的,故答案为[B]。
