1．More than half of the food produced in Canada goes to waste．A shocking new study has shown that the level of food waste is far worse than previously thought，at 58%．Of that，about 85% of food waste is due to food processors．This differs from earlier studies，which criticized families for driving food waste and said they were responsible for 51% of food waste．
The study was carried out by Martin Hooch，the leading expert on food waste and the author of several previous studies on the subject．Reflecting on the study's findings，Hooch said，"It means stopping criticizing consumers．Sure，consumers are part of the problem，but they're not the problem．"
In the past，Hooch didn't master good data，particularly from the private factories，but relied on numbers collected by the food industry for purposes other than tracking（追蹤） waste．This time，however，Hooch worked directly with companies at all stages along the food production chain and interviewed over 700 experts in the industry．Clearly he found it hard to believe what he was seeing．
This is what they found：Food processing causes 34% of food waste．This is followed by production，which causes 24%．Next is manufacturing at 13%，then hotels and restaurants at 9%．Families cause only 14%，and market sales 6%．This should be a serious wake-up call for Canadians who would do well to examine their own food supply chains．Food waste is costly，not only in terms of dollars wasted，but also in resources like land，water，and so on．To be using these resources and wasting the product is totally irresponsible and unnecessary．
To make matters worse，when food is thrown into rubbish cans，it produces methane，a greenhouse gas 30 times more powerful than carbon dioxide （CO2）．At Canada's rate of food waste，that's like adding 12 million cars to the road．It seems that the food industry needs redesigning．Therefore，let's hope the government takes action．
（1）What did earlier studies say about food waste in Canada？
A．Food waste was better than expected．
B．Food went bad when it was processed．
C．Most of the food was wasted on purpose．
D．Families were to blame for food waste．
（2）How did Hooch do his study on food waste this time？
A．By studying data from the industry．
B．By tracking the whole production chain．
C．By collecting advice from experts worldwide．
D．By drawing a conclusion from the previous studies．
（3）Why does food waste have an effect on the environment？
A．Because it is harmful to the trees．
B．Because it pollutes the soil around it．
C．Because it gives off unpleasant smells．
D．Because it produces more greenhouse gas．
（4）What is the main idea of the text？
A．Canadians don't like to save food for future．
B．More than half of the food is wasted in Canada．
C．Families are mainly responsible for food waste．
D．The food industry is better redesigned in Canada．發(fā)布：2024/12/5 0:0:1組卷：9引用：5難度：0.5 -
2．Can't Resist Junk Food？Study Suggests You Try This Simple Trick You're tired and hungry.Then you catch a whiff of something delicious，probably fried and almost certainly fattening.It is fried chicken!（1）
A new research says that exposing to the smell of junk food for at least two minutes can actually help you make healthier food choices.
Let's take a closer look at this process.Have you ever noticed that whatever appetizing treat catches your nose's attention tends to be most appealing just after you first smell it？What will happen if you're standing in line after a couple of minutes？（2）And recent science says that this is actually the right moment to walk away.
The results of a series of experiments，including field studies at a supermarket and at a middle school cafeteria，show that extended exposure （of more than two minutes） to junk food smell （e.g，cookie smell）leads to lower purchases of unhealthy foods compared with healthy smell（e.g.strawberry smell）.（3）That is why long exposure to junk food smell can be as satisfactory as actually having it in your mouth，which in turn decreases the desire for consumption of junk food.
（4）When the exposure to smell of healthy food were examined，food choices were not profoundly influenced.The reason for this is that healthy food are not connected with reward in our brain and therefore have little influence on what we desire.
So next time you're feeling you don't have the will power to resist that French fries，it might be as simple as sitting there and smelling all that sweetness for just a minute or two.（5）
A.But wait a minute before you order.
B.It's a response that has been researched.
C.Get the satisfaction with none of the calories.
D.It isn't quite as irresistible as it was just moments ago.
E.However，it's not the same case with smell of healthy food.
F.It's the same as actually eating it because your desire to eat it is satisfied.
G.The brain doesn't necessarily distinguish between a pleasurable smell or taste.發(fā)布：2024/11/15 22:30:1組卷：5引用：4難度：0.4 -
