美国高中里的“爱心杂货铺”（一）

When you go to a grocery store (杂货店), you expect to pay for your goods with money. But

students at a high school in Texas, US, opened a store that runs on good deeds.

In November, students from Linda Tutt High School in the city of Sanger launched a grocery store

that enables students to purchase necessities (必需品) such as toilet paper, meat and basic food

items using a point system. The store aims to support families in need.

“In our school district (区), there are roughly 2,750 students enrolled and throughout the district,

43 percent of these students are considered economically disadvantaged,” Anthony Love,

principal of Linda Tutt, told CNN. “About 3.6 percent of our students are considered homeless.

We thought it was important to support them and their families and make sure they had food on

the table.”

Students earn points by contributing positively to the school. For those students from poor

families, the point system has provided a way for them to shop for their families, according to

Love. “They can earn points for doing chores (杂活) around the building or helping to clean,” he

said.

With the help of partners like Texas Health, Albertsons and First Refuge Ministries, the school

was able to stock the shelves.

The number of points for each item was actually assigned by the students. “So we walked through

here and decided that a can of green beans was one point,” said Paul Juarez, the executive director

of First Refuge Ministries.

Juarez said that he hopes the idea gets implemented (实施) in other areas. “It gives us a picture of

what can be. So if we can do this inside other schools, it will do a whole lot to help other small

towns.”

In addition to the financial benefits, students also learn about supply management and customer

service, and such lessons could prepare them for future jobs.

The grocery store’s student manager, Hunter Weertman, said he has already learned important life

skills from his experience at the store, such as making good spending choices and budgeting (安排

开支).

The store practice was also welcomed by Thomas Muir, Sanger’s mayor (市长). “We all had our

first jobs and it taught us how to work, and what you got for your work,” he said. “I think this will

do that for them too, and also meet an immediate need.”

2. How could students earn points?

（二）舌尖上的变革：植物海鲜或成未来趋势。难度高

Before fish ever ends up in your grocery store or on your restaurant table, it leaves behind a series

of human rights and environmental disasters. The international fishing industry is full of human

exploitation and irresponsible practices on the high seas. For this reason, businesses and

consumers are looking to an alternative food source that tastes like seafood without being from the

sea – in other words, fishless fish.

Good Catch and Van Cleve Seafood are doing for plant-based seafood what Beyond Meat and

Impossible Foods did for plant-based meat, according to Outside Online. There are already many

options available. Good Catch uses many legumes (豆科作物), including peas, lentils (兵豆) and

soybeans, mixed with algal (海藻的) oil and seafood powder for their fish-free tuna (金枪鱼)

product. Van Cleve Seafood offers crab cakes made from cabbage, artichoke (洋蓟) and hearts of

palm (棕榈).

“I love plant-based seafood,” said Monica Talbert, CEO of Van Cleve Seafood, “because it gives

us a platform to shine light on the unsavory (不光彩的) things going on in the seafood industry,

just like plant-based meat did for the livestock (牲畜) industry.”

The fishing industry’s human rights and environmental abuse is abundant. Many fishing boats are

operated by migrants (移民) who are abused and forced to work long hours in terrible conditions.

There’s also the environmental issue of bycatch, the unintentional catching and killing of animals.

Bycatch makes up about 40 percent of the fishing industry’s combined haul (捕获), 28.5 billion

kilograms per year, according to Oceana, a nonprofit ocean conservation organization.

“The lawlessness, the mislabeling. The fish illegally soaked in chemicals. The child labor, slavery

and human trafficking (买卖). Just horrendous (骇人的) practices. It was so disheartening,”

Talbert said.

As sales of plant-based foods increase, there’s hope that these “horrendous practices” will end.

Next year’s seafood may look quite different – and less fishy – than the one you see today.

1. Why are fishless seafood products popular among consumers?

A. They are cheaper than seafood.

B. They taste better than seafood.

C. They are more environmentally friendly.

D. They are more nutritious than seafood.

2. What does Good Catch use in its fish-free tuna product?

A. Legumes.

B. Peanut oil.

C. Artichokes.

D Cabbage.

3. What does the phrase “horrendous practices” refer to in the text?

A. The approaches to making seafood less fishy.

B. The illegal activities in the fishing industry.

C. The unintentional catching and killing of animals.

D. The environmental issues with the fishing industry.
