Unit 9 Food
1)Model1题目及范文讲解
In the world today, there is a problem with food production. As a result, some people do not have enough to eat. Suggest some ways that farmers can solve this problem.
Model 1
One way to increase food production is for people to eat grain such as barley, oatsor maize instead of feeding it to animals. More food is produced when farmers grow crops instead of animals on their land. While animals constantly need a lot of grass or grain, water, and space in which to move, crops need only water and fertilizer. Also, it costs money to turn the grain into meat, by feeding it to animals and then killing the animals. Therefore, the food yield per unit of land is far greater with crops than with animals. Another way to increase food production is by improving the technology that farmers use. Firstly, better methods for irrigating land need to be developed. In country which have little or no rain, such as parts of Africa, improved irrigation could lead to a big increase in food production. Secondly, if better seeds are developed, this could lead to stronger and healthier plants, which would provide more food yield per unit of land.
1) Model2题目及范文讲解
In some developed countries, people eat a lot of processed food which is bad for their health. Suggest some ways that governments and food companies can encourage people to eat a healthy diet.
Model 2
One way to promote a healthy diet is by educating people about the dangers of unhealthy eating. If people are taught that processed foods are high in salt, fat and sugar, they might choose healthier meals and snacks. Educating people about the problems of eating too much processed food could lead to better eating habits. While it is important to educate adults, schoolchildren should be the main target for education because they are young and their bodies are still growing. Another way is by promoting healthy food. Firstly, the packaging on healthy foods should be marked to show that it is friendly, with a tick or a smiley face, and the ingredients of foods could be shown very clearly on the packaging. This would help people to choose healthy options when they are buying their daily food. Secondly, the government could help by making healthy food cheaper, so people could afford to buy the food which is good for them.
