今天的练习内容来自 The BBC，文章是关于哪些国家肉吃的最多，但朗读部分主要是讲最近人类吃肉的总量呈现了上升的趋势。
我发现我选了不少关于吃肉和吃素的文章。也许是因为这是我经常考虑的问题，但也许是因为这也是人类这些年考虑得比较多的一个问题。

Which countries eat the most meat?
By Hannah Ritchie
You may have heard an increasing number of people vow to reduce their meat eating lately – or cut it out altogether.
This often forms part of a bid to become healthier, reduce their environmental impact, or consider animal welfare.
A third of Britons claim to have either stopped eating meat or reduced it, while two thirds of those in the US say they are eating less of at least one meat.
This trend is partly thanks to initiatives such as Meat-free Mondays and Veganuary. At the same time, a number of documentaries and high-profile advocates of veganism have highlighted the potential benefits of eating less meat.
But have these sentiments had any effect on the ground?
What we do know is that global meat consumption has increased rapidly over the past 50 years.
Meat production today is nearly five times higher than in the early 1960s – from 70 million tonnes to more than 330 million tonnes in 2017.
A big reason for this is that there are many more people to feed.
Over that period the world population more than doubled. In the early 1960s there were around three billion of us, and today there are more than 7.6 billion.
While population is part of the story, it doesn’t entirely account for why meat production increased five-fold.
Another key factor is rising incomes.
Around the world, people have become richer, with the global average income more than tripling in half a century.
When we compare consumption across different countries we see that, typically, the richer we are the more meat we eat.
There are not just more people in the world – there are more people who can afford to eat meat.
