23、发霉的食物还能吃吗?

One day, you open the fridge and find some moldy food. But before you can throw it away, your mother stops you. She doesn't want to waste food. She cuts off the moldy part and eats the rest. Is it safe to do this?

Mold can grow on almost all kinds of food. Mold is usually green, white, black or grey. Mold makes food soft and changes its color. Moldy food tastes quite bad—and it's not safe to eat.

If you find mold in soft food, just throw it away. Soft food, such as bread, tomatoes or hot dogs, usually contains water. This allows mold to easily grow below its surface. Bacteria can also grow along with it.

But it's easy to remove mold from hard food. The mold can't grow very deeply inside this kind of food. According to the BBC, you should cut about 2.5 cm around and below the mold to remove it. It's OK to cut the moldy parts out of hard food and eat the rest. But if the food is completely covered with mold, you should still throw it away.

Most kinds of mold are bad for us. But some kinds of mold can be used to make food. For example, penicillium can be used to make many types of cheeses, such as blue cheese. These cheeses are safe to eat—and they're quite delicious as well.

A group of frogs were traveling through the woods when two of them fell into a deep pit(坑). All the other frogs came around the pit. When they saw how d【1】 the pit was, they told the two frogs that they were dying. The two frogs wouldn’t listen to their words and tried to jump out of the pit. The other frogs kept telling them to stop. F【2】, one of the frogs listened to what the other frogs were saying and gave up. He fell down and died. The other frog c【3】 to jump as hard as he could. Once again, the group of frogs shouted at him to give up and wait for the d【4】. He jumped even harder and in the end he made it out.
