My friend, Emma Daniels, spent the summer of 1974 traveling in Israel. During her month-long stay in Jerusalem she often went to a café called Chocolate Soup. It was run by two men, one of whom——Alex——used to live in Montreal. One morning when Emma went in for coffee, while chatting with her new friend Alex, she mentioned that she had just finished the book she was reading and had nothing else to read. Alex said he had a wonderful book she might like, and that he''''d be happy to lend it to her. As he lived just above the café, he quickly ran up to get it. The book he handed to Emma just minutes later was Markings, a book by a former Secretary-General of the United Nations (UN).
Emma had never read it, nor had she ever bought a copy. But, when she opened it up, she was floored to see her own name and address inside the cover in her own handwriting (笔迹).

Instant Food
Instead of buying only fresh foods, Americans nowadays buy many more
convenience foods. These are foods which are ready partly or completely
prepared. Many of them are frozen, such as frozen dinner, heat-and-serve French
fries, and frozen pizzas. There are also many canned convenience foods, such as
ready-made spaghetti, soups, stews(炖熟的菜 )and vegetables.
Convenience foods save time and trouble. They are popular with
people who are busy or who don’t like to cook or wash dishes. But they often
cost more than fresh, unprepared foods and many contain man-made additives.
Also, many people feel they don’t taste as good as home-cooked foods.
Health Food and Co-ops
In the 1960s, a “back-to-the-earth” movement was started by young
people in the United States.
The movement was a reaction against the harmful effects of technology. From the
movement came a new understanding of food and health. Many people now prefer
natural and organic(有机的) foods to the prepared foods sold in health foods stores and in
food co-ops, which are small stores where customers help manage the store. In
co-ops, food is usually not packaged. Customers bring their own bags and jars
and scoop(汲取) their food out of boxes or baskets.
The Diet Craze(节食热)
These days Americans are more and more concerned with their weight.
Perhaps as many as 70 million Americans are on weight-dollar business.
American supermarkets sell a variety of diet food such as soft
drinks, diet candy, and diet salad dressings. Dieters also spend money on diet
pills, exercise machines, and jogging suits(健美服). Each year
dozens of new diets are popularized. They have such names as the Miracle(奇效的) Diet,
the Nine-day Wonder Diet, and the East 24-hour Diet. There is even one called
the Ice Cream Diet, which advises the dieters to eat only ice cream for lunch
and dinner! For dieters who cannot lose weight on their own, there are many
well-organized diet groups, which offer help and encouragement.
