Scientists have learned a lot about the kinds of food people need. They say that there are some kinds of food that people should eat every day. They are: ①green and yellow vegetables of all kinds; ②citrus (柑桔) fruits and tomatoes; ③potatoes and other fruits and vegetables; ④meat of all kinds, fish and eggs; ⑤milk and foods made from milk; ⑥bread or cereal (谷物), rice is also in this kind of food; ⑦butter, or something like butter.
People in different places of the world eat different kinds of things. Foods are cooked and eaten in many different kinds of ways. People in different countries eat at different times of the day. In some places people eat once or twice a day; in other countries people eat three or four times. Scientists say that none of the differences is really important. It doesn’t matter whether foods are eaten raw or cooked. It doesn’t matter if a person eats dinner at 4 o’clock in the afternoon or at 11 o’clock at night. The important thing is what you eat every day.
There are two problems, then, in feeding the large number of people on earth. The first is to find some ways to feed the world’s population (人口) so that no one is hungry. The second is to make sure that people everywhere have the right kinds of food to make them grow to be strong and healthy.

Tomatoes first grew in the Americas. The Incas grew them over 1,000 years ago. They were introduced to Europe by the Spanish in the early 16th century. The Spanish and Italians seem to have been the first Europeans to accept them as food. In France, people grew tomatoes in the garden just to enjoy their beauty. Many people there thought tomatoes would make them sick. It was years before some of them would eat tomatoes.
Tomatoes are fruits. They grow from seeds. They won’t grow in cold weather. But with water, sunlight and warmth, tomatoes grow fast. They can grow in pots or in the ground. As the plant grows taller, people may tie it to a stick. Next is the blooming stage. Flowers appear. The flowers turn into fruit. Some kinds of tomatoes can be picked in about six more weeks.

【推荐3】According to the non-profit organization (非营利组织) Food Allergy Research and Education, these foods cause (造成) 90 percent of all food allergies: cow milk, eggs, peanuts, fish, shellfish, tree, nuts, wheat, soy. Itching (痒) vomiting (呕吐) and stomachaches (腹痛)...food allergies (过敏) can be dangerous. People can even die (死亡) from them. What’s worse, they are becoming more common (常见的) these days. Kari Nadeau, an allergy expert (专家) at Stanford University in the US, did a study of food allergies worldwide. She found that while 3 percent of people had them in 1960, the number rose to 7 percent in 2018. Nadeau said that one reason for this might be that we are exposed (暴露) to fewer microbiota (微生物群). Microbiota can “train”our bodies and stop us from getting allergies.
Our bodies are exposed to fewer microbiota these days. We live in cleaner homes. We stay indoors (室内) for longer hours. We are given more antibiotics (抗生素) as children-antibiotics kill microbiota. Scientists say it’s a good idea for babies to eat many different kinds of foods so that they can build up tolerance (耐受) in their early years. Having a pet cat or dog can also stop allergies from being developed.

Everyone knows that Americans like eating hamburgers. The best place to buy a hamburger is a fast-food restaurant. In these restaurants, people ask for their food, wait just a few minutes. When the food is ready, they take it to their tables themselves. They can eat it in the restaurant or take the food out in a box and eat it at home, at work, or in a park. At some restaurants, people can drive up beside a window. They ask for the food and a worker hands it to them through the window. Then they drive off and eat in their cars.
Some fast-food restaurants also sell fish, chicken, sandwiches, soft drinks and so on. Fast-food restaurants are very popular because the service is fast and the food is not too expensive.
