时文阅读与练习 Saving on wheels for world hunger 车轮上的粮食节约人 为唤醒人们节约粮食的意识，法国人巴普蒂斯特·迪邦谢在骑行穿越欧洲时，试图完全靠丢弃的食物生存。 1 There is lots of ways to raise awareness of a cause. Usually， the stranger the idea is， the more it gets noticed. And that’s precisely why one garbage-eating Frenchman has grabbed our attention. 2 Baptiste Dubanchet was on a quest to bike across Europe， surviving entirely on discarded（丢弃） food. The three month， 1，900?mile journey from Paris to Warsaw was Dubanchets way of raising awareness of food waste in Europe and throughout the world. The 25?year?old Frenchman explained that the goal was to “make this trip relying only on food destined to be thrown away—from hotels， restaurants， grocery stores， supermarkets and markets， in order to reduce food waste”. 3 As you can imagine， the trip was no piece of cake. While the worlds restaurants and supermarkets combine to throw away an average of 1.3 billion tons of food each year， according to the UN， much of it remains inaccessible thanks to locked dumpsters（废料箱）， health regulations， or business policies. Dubanchet said that only about one in 10 locations offered him food that would otherwise be discarded. For legal reasons， most establishments have a policy against giving away food waste. “Some people have even risked their jobs by giving me food，” he said. 4 What’s particularly interesting was the attitude various cities had toward Dubanchets cause. Berlin had been the easiest， while the most difficult was the Czech town of Pilsen. There， he had to ask at some 50 different stores and restaurants before finding food. The challenge was all the more dramatic when he considered the demanding exercises required to bike from France to Poland. He had to find food fast because after all the cycling， he was tired and needed the energy. The most important thing was not what he was eating， but whether his stomach was full or empty. 5 He aimed to finish his journey by mid-July. With any luck， he would turn a few more heads in the process. [Reading][Check] Ⅰ. Choose the best answers according to the text. 1. Why did Dubanchet eat discarded food when biking across Europe？ A.

This massive wastage of food isn’t just one of the root causes of global hunger. It’s also a significant contributor to greenhouse gas emissions across the globe. So， what can we do to minimize food waste in everyday life？ 2 Shop your fridge and pantry （食物储藏室） before going grocery shopping. Check what you have to make sure you don’t double.     1     A list will also help you focus and make fewer impulse purchases. 3 Learn how to store fruits and vegetables correctly. Don’t putting everything in the fridge. It’s clever to store different items correctly to help them last longer. For instance， you can keep potatoes and onions in the dark and separate from one another.     2 4 Reuse leftovers. Most of us， when cooking， search for a recipe based on what we feel like eating， go out shopping and finally cook the dish.     3     So rather than starting the process with a recipe， look through the refrigerator and pantry. See what’s on hand and let that food be what you’ll cook for dinner. 5 Give away foods that you know you’re not going to eat before it spoils. Use neighborhood networks to help you connect with neighbors and share goods that you don’t need. You can also donate excess dry goods to local food banks. 6     4     Ask yourself why it went bad？ Did I buy too much at the store？ Did I have intentions to cook but ended up getting takeout？ Did I buy it because I thought it was “healthy” but then decided I didn’t want to eat it？ The more you can understand your eating habits， the more you can waste less food. 7 Let us all do our part in saving food.     5     If each of us follows all the tips outlined in this text， and in turn influences others around us to do the same， it will make a big difference in the long run. A. Make a list of what you need. B. Be mindful when throwing away food. C. This way， they won’t go mushy easily. D. Food waste mainly comes from how food is packaged. E. You will be amazed by how much change one person can effect. F. Do that a few nights a week， and you’ll have a pile of leftover food. G. A pantry will help you store more food and reduce food waste. 连词before引导时间状语从句时的多种含义 1. before意为“在……之前;还没来得及……就”， 强调主句或从句谓语动词表示的动作发生得过早或过快。 Before she could move， she heard a great noise， which grew to a terrible roar. 她还没来得及动弹，就听见很响的声音，接着就成了可怕的隆隆轰鸣声。 2. before用于“It + be + 时间段 + before...”句型中，该句型意为“在……之后才……”。 It will be five years before I come back. 我五年后才能回来。 注意：如果主句使用否定形式，则表示“不久……就……”。 It won’t be long before they understand each other. 他们不久就会互相了解的。 3. before还有“趁……（还没有）”之意。 They are thinking of buying the house before the prices go up. 他们正在考虑趁房价未涨时把房子买下来。 Lobster walking into the party 宫廷“龙虾” “小兄弟”是一位贫穷的年轻画家。一次，在参加贵族才能参加的舞会时，他误穿了不得体的衣服。他该如何化解这场尴尬呢？ 1 Little Brother was a young painter. Although he lived in the cheapest house， he always held his head high， spoke to everyone he met and showed his work to whoever would look at it. 2 One afternoon， a group of some fancy nobles invited him to a party in a castle in the Loire Valley that weekend. They said this was going to be the party of the year and only noble men were allowed to attend the party. “Dress up and join us！” they said. 3 Excited， Little Brother worked all week on a costume that he was certain would be highly impressive. Then he rented a car and drove three hours to the castle. He changed into his costume in the car and went up the castle steps. He entered the ballroom， head held high. 4 Upon arrival， he immediately realized his mistake. This was a themed costume party. All around him everyone was dressed in fancy clothes with sparkling jewels. Little Brother， however， was wearing a red coat， red tights， red ballet slippers， and giant red claws. Also， his face was painted red. He was dressed as a lobster. 5 He stood at the top of the steps for one long horrible moment. Running away in shame seemed like the easiest response. But he didn’t run. Hed worked really hard to make this costume， and he was proud of it. 6 Though he was a bit nervous at first， quickly a slight triumph （喜悦） took over as he was amazed at his smooth footsteps. The dramatic scene where a beautiful princess danced with an funny lobster attracted all the dancers. Everyone cheered for them with thunderous applause. 7 When asked why he wore a costume like that， Little Brother spelled out his art inspiration，“Beauty comes from variety.
