　　LONDON ( Reuters ) － Organic(有机的) fruit, delivered right to the doorstep. That is what Gabriel Gold prefers, and he is willing to pay for it. If this is not possible, the 26-year-old computer technician will spend the extra money at the supermarket to buy organic food.

　　“Organic produce is always better,” Gold said. “The food is free of pesticides(农药) , and you are generally supporting family farms instead of large farms．And more often than not it is locally grown and seasonal, so it is more tasty.” Gold is one of a growing number of shoppers buying into the organic trend, and supermarkets across Britain are counting on more like him as they grow their organic food business. But how many shoppers really know what they are getting, and why are they willing to pay a higher price for organic produce? Market research shows that Gold and others who buy organic food can generally give clear reasons for their preferences－but their knowledge of organic food is far from complete. For example, small amounts of pesticides can be used on organic products. And about three quarters of organic food in Britain is not local but imported(进口) to meet growing demand．“The demand for organic food is increasing by about one third every year, so it is a very fast-growing market.” said Sue Flocks, a specialist in this line of business.

The headmaster of a middle school in southern England, David Hayes, has suspended（停课）students at his school 478 times over the past year—one in twenty of all the student suspensions in England.
Although some people believe that his actions go too far, he seems to be getting results. The number of students receiving “A” grades in the national senior school exam has increased from 48% in 2004 to 74% this year.
Mr Hayes says that many schools could achieves similar improvements if they improve their school students’ behavior. He also says the British government is wrong for pressuring schools not to suspend troublesome students and points out the harmful effects such students have on the quality of teaching and student learning. Suspensions often get many naughty students to improve their behavior, he says.
The school was below average in 2003. Mr Hayes joined the following year and now suspends two of the school’s 1880 students on average each school day. The total of 478 suspensions over the year means that almost one in four students have been punished this way. This year the school’s academic performance was judged as excellent.
