When we help our parents prepare a meal, some of us can’t help putting our hands into the big tub (桶)of rice. So, what makes rice interest us so much?

    1    

When we put our hands deep into a tub of rice, it causes gentle pressure to our fingers. This can make the blood in our fingers run faster and more smoothly. The softness of rice will also create a feeling of relaxation. It can certainly reduce our stress and worry.

Rice conducts (传导) heat better than air.

Rice has the ability to conduct heat. It can carry away some heat from our hands and that will reduce hand temperature.     2    

Sweat (汗水) can be taken away by rice.

Rice is rich in starch (淀粉). When rice is around our hands, rice starch takes away sweat.     3     Playing with rice must be a pleasant activity, especially in the hot summer.

We can see that the feelings of putting our hands into rice are connected with our blood, temperature and many other things.     4     It may not only make the rice dirty, but also cause some waste.

A.Rice can make our fingers warmer.
B.As a result, our hands will feel dry in it.
C.The pressure from rice helps reduce stress.
D.However, we’d better not do that next time.

文章大意:本文是一篇记叙文。本文主要讲述了劳拉在看到食物浪费之后,创办了一个“共享食物”的计划来帮助无家可归的人的故事。

【推荐2】According to a research more than 130 billion pounds of uneaten food go to waste in Laura’s country each year . That is about 30% of the yearly food supply (供应). It is a sad fact, especially when you consider how many families and homeless people are in hunger.

When Laura saw her school dining hall throw away food that was not eaten at all every day, she came up with an idea. She started a project to help her school dining hall to give away uneaten food to homeless shelters (庇护所) in her community. In the past three years, the same project has spread to other schools and some fast food restaurants throughout the city. The project is called Feed & Find, and has already fed thousands of people in her city.

How does it work? Through an app, Feed & Find matches local homeless shelters with school dining halls and restaurants that have uneaten food to provide. When dining halls or restaurants have uneaten food left, they can use the app to share the information about the food. A truck driver working for the project is then sent to pick it up and take it to a shelter.

Pretty cool, right? It’s not surprising that people in other cities have got in touch with Laura, hoping that she could have develop similar projects for their communities.

Some people, however, have concerns about the safety of the uneaten food. They think such food may not be clean enough. Still, this project is a clever way to help solve the problem of food waste and it helps those in need.

1. The numbers in paragraph 1 tell us _________.
A.some people are poorB.the population is large
C.food waste is seriousD.the research is interesting.
2. Laura’s project first got food from _________.

【推荐3】The food we eat seems to have great effects on our health. Although science has made big steps in making food more fit to eat, it has, at the same time, made many foods unfit to eat. Some research has shown that 80 percent of all human illness are connected with diet and 40 percent of cancer is connected with the diet as well. Food is connected with illness is not a new discovery. In the 1940s scientists realized that nitrates(硝酸盐), which are often used to keep color of meat, and other additives(添加剂)caused cancer. However, these additives remain in our food and it becomes more difficult to know which additives are helpful or harmful. Farmers sometimes give drugs(药)to animals not because the animals are ill but because they want to sell the animals at higher prices. For example, farmers try hard to make animals grow big so that they can sell he big animals for more money. Although the Food and Drug Administration has tried again and again to control farmers to do so, farmers go on doing this.
