【题目】On Friday, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) released two proposals to improve food safety. The regulations are a response to a series of recent foodborne illnesses. The FDA hopes these new rules will prevent problems of food in the earliest period of production, before the contaminated(受污染的)food causes consumers to get sick.

Over the past decade, foodborne illnesses have caused many people to get sick. Food like spinach(菠菜), ground beef and cantaloupes(甜瓜)has been sent back to producers, because it is bound to contain germs and bacteria that cause illnesses.

Among the most common problems are dangerous bacteria that cause stomach pains and food poisoning. Often these illnesses occur when food is undercooked or improperly prepared. While not all illnesses are reported, the FDA estimates that nearly 130,000 Americans a year are hospitalized for food-related problems.

The two new rules proposed by the FDA are called Preventive Controls for Human Food and Standards for Produce Safety. Each rule is described in detail on the FDA’s website. Readers can submit comments, which the FDA will use as feedback to mike future adjustments to the proposals.

The first rule demands manufacturers should have formal plans for preventing contamination and for fixing problems when contamination occurs. This regulation is applied to food produced in the US and overseas.

The second rule k specific to food that is eaten raw. It requires strict standards of growing harvesting, and packing fruit and vegetables. Workers must make sure the materials used in soil are safe and free of contamination.

The FDA believes these new rules will not just improve Americans’ health but also make a positive economic impact. The regulations can lead to major savings in medical costs for people who get sick because of the contamination food.
