Nowadays, the food that you buy comes from many different countries. Have a look in your fridge and fruit bowl, and check the origins (來源) of the food. Perhaps there are apples from California 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 (消費者). Why is this, and what are the effects (影響) 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 market to buy the food. 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 in winter if we want.
Some countries have to import (進(jìn)口) most of their food. This is because they have difficult climates. The United Arab Emirates (UAE), for example, get 85% of its food from other countries.
I believe these miles are worrying for some reasons. First of all, because food travels such long distances, we need more planes, trucks and ships to move the food. This means we use more oil or petrol, so there is more pollution and more global (全球的) warming. Besides, 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 (makes sth. less) the amount of global pollution. We need to buy more local food.

Dear Ms White,
I used to have a lot of problems and I always tried to fix them. I used to do badly in English. To fix it, I read English newspapers and went to the school English corner to improve it. Now I’m quite good at it. I used to be weak. To fix it, I ate right and joined a sports club. Now I’m strong and healthy. I used to be afraid of speaking in public. To fix it, I took part in all kinds of school activities. Now I’m outgoing and everyone likes making friends with me.
But now I have a problem that I can’t fix. I have the ugliest nose in the whole world! It’s not only fat but also big! I want to have a nose job (鼻子整形), but how can I get my parents to agree?
Yours,
Ann, 12

Dear Ann,
It sounds like you’re a really proactive (積極主動的) person, always fixing problems. That’s good, but when it comes to things like your nose, you have to stop. It sounds to me that you’re looking for things that are wrong with your body. That’s very dangerous. Also, I’d like to point out that nobody is perfect. A nose doesn’t reflect who you are, so there’s no need for you to feel bad about yourself at all.
In my opinion, as a student, you should pay more attention to your schoolwork instead of your looks.
Best wishes,
Ms White
