Ⅱ.阅读理解 [2023年·江西景德镇一中期末]I don't consider myself to be a vegetarian, at least not in the strictest sense of the term.The two rules I follow as a semi­vegetarian are that I never cook meals at home using meat, nor do I order meat dishes when dining out.Obviously, these aren't the only occasions when I have meals.My friends sometimes throw dinner parties and I don't want to force my dietary beliefs upon them.So I eat whatever they prepare. I'm not offended by the taste of meat at all.Actually, I grew up eating meat.As an adult, however, I became more conscious of my eating habits.I started to eat less and less meat, until one day I found that I could go for months without eating any meals containing meat at all. I began to explore the idea of giving up animal­based foods altogether, just to see how I would get on. Soon enough, a whole new world of food opened up to me.I started eating a lot of vegetables.What I discovered is that maintaining a vegetarian diet is not only healthy, delicious and inexpensive, it's also abundant in variety. Even with all the health benefits of a vegetarian diet — lower risk of heart attack, prevention of high blood pressure, reduced rates of cancer － there still seems to be a complete lack of vegetarian restaurants and a shortage of vegetarian options at most restaurants.I began to wonder if people were simply addicted to meat.That may be true for some, but for others who might give vegetarianism a try.I realized that there was something else in the way—the culture of vegetarianism appeared to be unpleasant.It seems that there are too many vegetarians who believe that their way of eating is superior to any other.They aren't just vegetarians ; they're better people, or so they think.This is rather offensive. So, I propose that we, the vegetarians of the world, should become more relaxed about our meat­eating friends.Perhaps, if vegetarianism is seen to be an attractive option, more people might try it.I suppose, for vegetarianism to take_root in society for all to enjoy, it needs to change its image to one that is fun, inviting and worth following. 【语篇解读】　主题：人与自我(生活)；话题：素食主义者。本文是一篇议论文。作者对于“素食主义者”进行了论述。作者认为，尽管素食饮食对健康有好处，但是要使素食主义在社会中生根，它就需要改变，成为一种有趣、诱人和值得效仿的形象。 1．Why does the author eat whatever his friends prepare?
