Lab-grown meat, also called “cell–cultivated” or “cultured” meat, is made by feeding a mix of nutrients to animal cells in steel tanks in labs. The idea is to create an alternative to agriculturally raised meat. And unlike other meat substitutes which are made from plant proteins and other ingredients, lab-grown meat is real meat. ___17___ Recently, the U. S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) has given two companies approval to sell lab–grown chicken. ___18___ It’s aimed at eliminating (消除) harm to animals, and reducing the environmental impacts of grazing(放牧) and growing feed for animals. “Everything we know about how meat can be made is going to change. But don’t expect to see cultivated meat in grocery stores just yet,” said Uma Vaieti, CEO of UPSIDE Foods. ___19___ That’s because it cannot yet be produced on the scale of traditional meat. “To make cultivated meat, we need much more energy,” said Bruce Friedrich, president and founder of the Good Food Institute. However, those high energy needs will be offset(补偿)by the reduction in land and water use and other benefits. It’s thought that cultured meat will be probably produced on a large scale. ___20___ A. Lab-grown meat is much more expensive now. B. When ready, lab-grown meat is formed into shapes. C. The approval launches a new era of meat production. D. It looks, smells and tastes like any other grocery store version. E. But scientists behind lab-grown meat say that’s no longer necessary. F. That could also offer a solution to feeding the world’s growing population. G. The typical way meat is produced now is a risk factor for the emergence of diseases. 江苏省苏州市2023-2024学年高二上学期期中考试英语试题 Gesture(手势)gets its power in part from the fac
