Nowadays, the food that you buy comes from many different countries. Have a look in your fridge, cupboard, and fruit bowl and check the origins(来源) of the food. Perhaps there are apples from California, lamb from New Zealand, or potatoes from Egypt You will probably be surprised how far food travels to get to your plate. This journey, from “field to plate”, is called “food miles”. A food mile is the distance that food travels from the farmer's field to the person who buys the food. Nowadays, food often travels thousands of miles to get to the consumer(消费者). Why is this, and what are the effects(影响) of these long distances
Traditionally, farmers sold their food in the local market, so the food didn't have to travel very far. The consumers also did not travel very far because they went to their local market to buy the food. This was a good system for farmers and consumers. However, there were some disadvantages. For example, consumers could only buy food that farmers produced locally. In addition, they could only get food that was in season. Now, because of modern technology, food comes from all over the world. We do not have to wait for spring or summer to buy strawberries or tomatoes. They are available in winter if we want.
Some countries have to import(进口) most of their food. This is because they have difficult climates. The United Arab Emirates(UAE), for example, gets 85% of its food from other countries. Even food made in the UAE often uses imported materials.
What's wrong with “food miles”? Is this not a good way of increasing international trade I believe these miles are worrying for a number of reasons. First of all, because food travels such long distances, we need more planes, lorries, and ships to move the food. This means we use more oil or petrol, so there is more pollution and more global(全球的) warming. In addition, food that travels a long way is not fresh and usually not very tasty. Tomatoes, for example, are picked early and stored for their long journeys. For this reason, they are usually tasteless when they get to the consumer. Local food has a better taste, and it also reduces the amount of global pollution. We need to buy more local food.
26.What is called “food miles” according to this passage
A.The origins of the food.
B.The effects of longs distances .
C.The journey from field to plate.
D.The disadvantages of imported food.
27.The underlined word “available” in Paragraph 2 most probably means “________”.
A.easy to get B.not busy
C.willing to talk D.Impossible to get
28.Some countries, like the United Arab Emirates, have to import most of their food because of ________.
A.long distances B.difficult climates
C.fresh and tasty food D.modern technology
29.The writer uses the LAST paragraph mostly to encourage readers to ________.
A.buy more local food B.increase international trade
C.travel long distances D.use imported materials
30.This passage is mainly about ________.
A.how local food travels from field to plate
B.what “food miles” is and its effects
C.how some countries import their food
D.where different kinds of food come from

七、书信作文
Dear David,
I am glad to hear from you. Today I want to tell you some information about the Dragon Boat Festival.
There is a special holiday in China—Dragon Boat Festival. It is very famous because people want to remember the famous man called Qu Yuan. In our hometown, people usually eat zongzi and have Dragon Boat races on that day. Let me tell you how to make zongzi.
We need some bamboo leaves, red dates and some rice. First, wash the rice, dates, bamboo leaves. Put some rice and three dates on two pieces of bamboo leaves. Next, tie it up with a small and thin rope. Then, put zongzi into a pot. And cook it at a very high temperature for about fifty minutes. When it is ready, serve it to your family members.
I think if you come here on that day, you will like it.
