A growing number of health, hunger, and sustainable （可持续的）agriculture groups today announced plans for Food Day-a nationwide campaign to change the way Americans eat and think about food．Food Day will encourage people around the country to sponsor or participate in activities that encourage Americans to “eat real” and support healthy, affordable food grown in a sustainable, humane way．

Organizers hope Food Day will inspire Americans to hold thousands of events in schools, college campuses, houses of worship and even in private homes aimed at fixing America’s food system．A Food Day event could be as small as a parent organizing a vegetable identification contest at a kindergarten class-or as massive as a rally（集会）in a city park, with entertainment and healthy food．Health departments, city councils and other policy makers could use Food Day to launch campaigns, hold hearings, or otherwise address communities food problems．

The campaign will advocate progress toward five central goals:

·Reducing diet-related disease by promoting healthy foods．The American diet is too low in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains and too high in fatty meat, soft drinks and salty packaged and restaurant foods-contributing to hundreds of thousands of premature deaths each year．

·Supporting sustainable farms and stopping subsidies to agribusiness．Billions of federal

dollars a year would be better spent helping environmentally conscious family farmers than

hugeagribusiness operations．

·Expanding access to food and alleviating hunger．Far too many Americans don’t know where their next meal is coming from, or have access to fresh produce in their neighborhood．

·Reforming factory farms to protect animals and the environment．Farming of animals can and should be done without cruelty, and without degrading the quality of life．

·Curbing junk-food marketing to kids．Food companies should not be targeting children with foods that promote tooth decay, obesity and other health problems．

1.What is the best title of the text?

A．Food Day Campaign	B．Eat Real and Keep fit
C．How to Observe Food Day	D．Food Problems in the USA

2.What can we learn from Paragraph 2?

A．Food problems are not easy to deal with．

B．Food Day events should be held in public places．

C．Kindergarten kids are unable to identify vegetables．

D．People are invited to create their own Food Day events．

3.One of the aims of Food Day is to ____．

A．target children with junk food	B．operate more agribusiness
C．increase access to food	D．cancel a series of events

4.The underlined word "curbing" in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to “ ”．

A．controlling

B．enlarging

C．evaluating

D．providing

5.We can infer from the text that _____．

A．Food Day will not help preserve natural resources．

B．Food Day can be an opportunity to solve food problems．

C．Food Day has so far achieved all the central goals．

D．there are different ideas and views about Food Day．

What makes a house a home?

Not size, of course．I've been in some of the grandest houses in America, and it's readily apparent no one lives there．Earlier this year, I had dinner in a mud hut in Ethiopia, where we sat on chairs next to the hostess' bed -- a home that had more warmth than any house I've been in since．

Now John Edwards is exploring what makes a house a home in his just-released Home: The Blueprints of Our Lives．There Edwards writes, " This is a book about homes, the values they rest on, the dreams they are filled with, and the people they have shaped．The houses and circumstances are different, but much of what you find inside will be familiar．"

Whether you're sitting in an airport right now, waiting to fly to your childhood home for Thanksgiving, or in your own home waiting for the relatives to arrive, you know what he's talking about．

We've lived in our townhouse for 21 years．The loose windows that make noise in the wind．The fireplace so shallow it holds only one log．The kitchen window that offers a view of the world passing by．It's where friends sit on the kitchen counter drinking wine while dinner is being fixed．I lived there for only 18, but it will always be my true home．Even the lamp in the west living room window, which I could see far down the road when driving home late at night, still shines．

While all this talk about childhood memories can be warm and comforting, home is whom you're with, not where you are．As Edwards writes, "Home is family．Home is safety．Home is faith．"

Happy homecoming．
