What are the main ideas of the text?
What can one infer by reading the text?
Beetles and flies are becoming part of the agricultural food chain.

Some visionaries hope that insects will play a big
role in future human diets. Insects are nutritious,
being packed with protein. Unlike hot-blooded
mammals and birds, which use a lot of energy to
keep themselves warm, they are efficient
converters of food into body mass. And in some
parts of the world they are, indeed, eaten already.
Well, maybe. But it will take some serious marketing
to persuade consumers, in the West at least, that
fricasseed locusts or termite burgers are the yummy
must-haves of 21st-century cuisine.

Jane Austen (December 16, 1775 - July 18, 1817) is widely known for her most famous novels. Jane Austen's work features biting social commentary, often delivered with great irony. While her writing was not well known during her lifetime, the 1870 publication of A Memoir of the Life of Jane Austen introduced her to a wider public. Her work is widelyread and admired by modern audiences, who have become quite familiar with Austen's cultural references, including television shows and movies adapted from her work.

“Let Quentin go and see,” Father said. “Go and see if Nancy is through, Quentin. Tell her she can go on home.”
I went to the kitchen. Nancy was through. The dishes were put away and the fire was out. Nancy was sitting in a chair, close to the cold stove. She looked at me.
“Mother wants to know if you are through,” I said.
“Yes,” Nancy said. She looked at me. “I done finished.” She looked at me.
“What is it?” I said. “What is it?”
“I ain’t nothing but a nigger,” Nancy said. “It ain’t none of it my fault.”

Consider tetrodotoxin (TTX), a poison found in puffer fish and blue-ringed octopuses that leaves you paralysed as your body goes through some agonising reactions. “Your lips and tongue will begin to burn, your mouth will erupt with saliva and you’ll get very sweaty,” Dominic Burgess from BritLab explains. “You’ll no longer be able to speak, swallow, seizures will begin and your body will slowly shut down — all while you are completely lucid but unable to move.” Death comes after six hours of symptoms and there is no antidote.
Often these poisons are alarmingly close to home. One lethal chemical — cardiac glycoside digoxin — can be found in a common garden flower, while the deadliest can be seen in many hospitals; just 2 kg would be enough to wipe out the whole of the human race.

Don’t drink coffee
Our bodies naturally produce a hormone called cortisol, which makes us feel more awake. But the caffeine in coffee can interfere with our body’s cortisol production, and over time this can lead us to become more dependent on caffeine and produce less cortisol naturally — so save it until after around 10 a.m.
Don’t stay in bed Exercise is always part of the answer when the question is about being healthier/happier/more productive. But more specifically, pre-breakfast exercise can have its own benefits. A study in Belgium found that exercising before breakfast can help you lose weight by burning more fat than you would later on in the day.
...but do eat cake
Saving the best until last: eat cake: a study of 193 obese adults found that eating cookies or chocolate as part of breakfast stems craving sweet foods later on in the day. In other words, incorporating cake into your morning routine can actually make you healthier for the rest of the day. It’s science; don’t question it.

As Mr. Azhichakov discovered, that is no longer the case. Senogda’s once pristine sands were buried under thick mats of reeking greenish-black goo.
“This stuff stretched far into the distance, for several kilometers,” said Mr. Azhichakov, 61, a retired ecological engineer. “The beach was in terrible condition.”
The muck, scientists have discovered, follows mass algal blooms at dozens of sites around Lake Baikal’s 1,240-mile perimeter. Confined to shallow water and shores near towns and villages, the problem seems to stem from an influx of untreated sewage – the result of inadequate wastewater treatment.
Algal blooms threaten iconic freshwater bodies around the world, including the Great Lakes, Lake Geneva, and Lake Biwa in Japan. But Lake Baikal is especially precious: a World Heritage site home to more than 3,700 species, more than half found nowhere else.
“People are dumping sewage, waste and rubbish around the lake, creating pretty appalling conditions in some places,” said Anson MacKay, an environmental scientist at University College London.
