21、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 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 markets 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 (可购得的) in winter if we want.

Some countries have to import (进口) most of their food. This because they have difficult climates (气候). 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 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 (减少) the amount of global pollution. We need to buy more local food.

【1】What is called “food miles” according to this passage?

A．The origins of the food.

B．The effects of long distances.

C．The journey from field to plate.

D．The disadvantages of imported food.

【2】Some countries, like the United Arab Emirates, have to import most of their food because of ________.

A．long distances

B．difficult weather

C．fresh and tasty food

D．modern technology

【3】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

Do you know something about rings(年轮)? Do you know they can tell us what the weather was like, sometimes even hundreds of years ago?

A tree will g【1】 well in a climate(气候) with lots of sunshine and rainfall. And little sunshine or rainfall will limit the growth of a tree. We can see the c【2】 of climate by studying the tree rings. For example, we can find out the weather ten years ago, and we can count the rings of a tree from the o【3】 to the inside. If the tenth ring is far from the eleventh ring, then we’re sure that it was sunny and rainy most of that year. If it is n【4】 the eleventh ring, then the climate that year was bad.

Tree rings are important not only for studying the weather but also for studying the h【5】 of men. Many centuries ago there l【6】 a lot of people at a place in New Mexico. But now you can find only sand there - no trees and no people. What happened?
