A few weeks after my first wife, Georgia, was called to heaven, I was cooking dinner for my son and myself. For a 31 , I had decided on frozen peas. As I was cutting open the bag, it 32 from my hand and crashed to the floor. The peas, like marbles (弹珠), 33 everywhere. I tried to use a broom (扫帚), 34 with each swipe they just rolled across the kitchen.
For the next week, every time I was in the 35 , I found a pea — in a corner, or behind a table leg. They kept 36 . Eight months later I pulled out the refrigerator to clean behind it, and 37 twelve frozen peas hidden underneath (在底下).
At the time I found those few remaining 38 , I was in a new relationship with a wonderful 39 I’d met in a support group. After we married, I was reminded of those peas 40 the refrigerator, and realized that my 41 had been like that bag of frozen peas. It had shattered (破碎). My wife had died; I was in a new city with a busy job, and with a son having trouble 42 his new surroundings and the 43 of his mother. I was a bag of spilled frozen peas; my life had come apart and scattered (散开).
When life gets you 44 , when everything you know comes apart, and when you think you’ll never make it, 45 that it’s just a bag of scattered frozen peas. The peas can be 46 , and life will move on. You’ll find all the peas eventually, including the ones that are hardest to 47 . And when you’ve got them 48 , you’ll start to feel whole again.
The life you know can break apart at any time. But you’ll have to 49 , and how fast you collect your peas depends on you. Will you keep scattering them around with a broom, 50 will you pick them up one by one and put your life back together?

A
The food we eat seems to have a great effect on our health. Although science has made big steps in making food more fit to eat, it has, at the same time, made many foods unfit to eat. Some research has shown that perhaps eighty percent of human illness is related to food and forty percent of cancer is related to food as well. That food is related to illness is not a new discovery. In 1945, some researchers realized that things commonly used to keep color in meats and other food additives(添加剂)caused cancer.
Yet, these additives remain in our food, and it is difficult to know which things on the wrappings of foods are helpful or harmful. The additives which we eat are not all so direct. Farmers often give penicillin (青霉素) to their animals, and because of this, penicillin has been found in the milk of cows. Sometimes similar tings are supplied to animals not for their health, but just to make a profit.
The farmers are simply trying to fatten the animals in order to get a higher price on the market. Although some countries have tried to control such things, the practice continues.
