3．In a recent report，a new plan of offers a road map to the U．S．to reduce food waste by 20% within a decade while also creating thousands of jobs and could save consumers billions of dollars．
The report，which comes just months after a federal（联邦政府的）action aimed at cutting food waste by 50% by 2030，offers a 27-point list of ways to address the problem．
One of the three categories of food waste solutions is prevention．The measures put forward in the report mainly center on preventing food waste in the first place．The report suggests food companies should adjust packaging to discourage waste．Portions（一份的量）should be smaller and packaging should be designed to prevent food from going bad．Distributors，those who supply shops and companies with food，should use new technology to reduce food waste during transport．Prevention methods would help save roughly $8 billion and prevent 2.6 million tons of food from being wasted，according to the report．
Recovery solutions focus on new methods of taking food that would otherwise be thrown away and using it for other purposes before it goes bad．The report also recommends providing tax encouragement for people who donate food to the poor，softening regulations on food donations and processing food to prolong its life．
The report also encourages recycling solutions-recycling food once it is no longer edible．
Food waste causes a lot of related problems from food insecurity to climate change．At present an average American household of four wastes more than two million calories of food every year．At the same time，other American families remain food-insecure and rely on cheap and unhealthy food．Carbon dioxide produced in the process of growing crops and raising animals such as cows and sheep also speeds up global warming．Nearly 10% of the greenhouse gas in the U．S．relates to agriculture，according to a report from the U．S．Environmental Protection Agency （EPA）．
Problems connected with food waste are only expected to become more serious in coming years as the global population grow quickly and climate change reduces crop production．Crop production in some areas of the world faces a nearly 20% reduction thanks to climate change．
The new report offers a path to approaches to meeting the federal government food waste goal．The government action-called for by the EPA and the U．S．Department of Agriculture-offered high ambition but few important details．
"Let's feed people，"said EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy announcing the goal，"Not landfills．"

6．Several times my daughter had telephoned to say，"Mum，you must come and see the daffodils（水仙花）before they are over．"
I wanted to go，but it was a two-hour drive from Lake Arrowhead．"I will go next Tuesday，"I promised，a little unwillingly，on her third call．
The next Tuesday dawned cold and rainy．Still，I had promised，and so I drove there．When I finally walked into Carolyn's house and hugged and greeted my grandchildren，I said，"Forget the daffodils，Carolyn!The road is invisible （看不见的） in the cloud and fog，and there is nothing in the world except you and these children that I want to see!"
My daughter smiled calmly and said，"We drive in this weather all the time，Mum．You will never forgive yourself if you miss this experience．"After about twenty minutes，we turned onto a small road and I saw a small church．On the far side of the church，I saw a hand-lettered sign that read"Daffodil Garden"？We got out of the car and each took a child's hand，and I followed Carolyn down the path．Then，we turned a comer of the path，and I looked up amazed．Before me lay the most beautiful sight．Flows of flowers of different colors seemed poured down the peak and slopes．There were five acres of flowers!A seas of daffodil!It was like a fairyland all beyond description．
"But who has done this？"I asked Carolyn．"It's just one woman，"Carolyn answered．That's her home，"Carolyn pointed to a well-kept A-frame house that looked small and modest in the midst of all that glory．We walked up to the house．On the patio （露台），we saw a poster．"Answers to the Questions I Know You Are Asking"was the headline．
The first answer was a simple one．"50，000 bulbs （鳞茎）"it read．The second answer was，"One at a time，by one woman．"The third answer was，"Began in 1958．"
I thought of this woman whom I had never met，who，more than fifty years before，had begun-one bulb at a time-to bring the beauty and joy to the mountain top．Just planting one bulb at a time，year after year，had changed the world where she lived and created something of magnificence，beauty，and inspiration．
