On the Food Security

Over the past couple of years, several cases of the food scandal have been disclosed on various media.The problem of food security has become a hot button across society.The prevalence of food insecurity has greatly impacted public health, which the government could not afford to ignore, according to the online edition of the People Daily.There are a couple of driving forces/驅(qū)動力/, I would argue, behind this undesirable tide.First, in the course of the rapid economic evolution, we ignore moral education, giving rise to the rising rate of the problem.More importantly, the lack of adequate regulation and punishment on those illegal producers enforces the trend.As Confucius/孔子/ instructed, it is better late than never.Prompt and strict measures should be taken to turn back this evil trend.The government should launch a massive moral campaign to educate all citizens and draw up tougher laws to crack down/鎮(zhèn)壓/ on those irresponsible/不負責任的；不可靠的/ corporations/公司；法人（團體）；社團/ and prohibit/阻止，禁止/ them from entering the food industry/產(chǎn)業(yè)；工業(yè)/ again.I am firmly convinced that through our combined efforts we are bound to enjoy more risk-free foods in the days ahead.******************************************************************************* *******************************************************************************security

The problem of food safety has attracted much attention recently.Everyone is astonished at the news that thousands of babies suffered from serious health problems because they had been fed with some poisonous milk products.The issue of food safety is so important that we cannot afford to ignore it.For one thing, food safety concerns the well-being of all the people in the country.For another, failure to ensure the safety of food causes damage to the image of our government, especially when such food is exported to other countries.Furthermore, unsafe food can undermine consumers' confidence in the food industry, which may cause disastrous effect to our economy.Therefore, our government should take all measures to make sure that all the food in our country is safe to eat.The government must strictly carry out food safety standards, and impose severe punishment on those who violate them.最近，食品安全問題吸引了公眾的不少關注。上千名喝過有毒奶制品的嬰兒被嚴重健康問題困擾的新聞震驚了每個人。食品問題如此重要我們無法忽視。其一，食品安全關乎于全國人民的健康；其二，政府無法確保食品安全會使他們的形象大大受損，尤其是有些食品是被輸往其他國家的。再者，不安全的食物會讓消費者大大降低對食品產(chǎn)業(yè)的信心從而對經(jīng)濟產(chǎn)生災難性的影響。因此，我們的政府應該想盡辦法去確保我們國家的所有食品都可以安全食用。政府必須出臺嚴格的食品安全標準并對違反它的人施加嚴厲懲罰。

Food Safety

Currently, many problems concerning the safety of food have popped up.As for me, I believe at least three factors account for this issue.First, I observe that profits drive many food producers to commitillegal things.They aim to gain more money at the expense of consumers’ health.Second, the overuse of agricultural pesticide has resulted in the degradation of food quality.The excessive pesticide bears enormous health hazard for people.Furthermore, some food producers inject hormones into domestic animals so as to make them grow more quickly and thus they can turn in more profit.As a result, people’s health has been seriously disturbed.All in all, food safety is such a great concern, and we all should establish laws and implement them effectively to avoid producing toxic foods.1.pop up : 突然出現(xiàn), 冒出來。舉兩個例句：1.He seems to pop up in the most unlikely places.在他似乎絕不可能到的地方，他往往就在那里出現(xiàn)。

2.As we walked along, we saw a rabbit pop up from its burrow and scurry across the field.我們正在向前走著，看到一只兔子突然從洞里跳出來，穿過田野。

這在以前來說，是不大可能出現(xiàn)的事。到了現(xiàn)代就突然出現(xiàn)了這么多的有毒有害產(chǎn)品。②然后就是“degradation” n.降格, 墮落, 退化的意思。用在這里很貼切，以后關于環(huán)境或者生活等等的語境下就可以用上這個單詞。例句：

1.Environmental degradation is a global issue of common concern to the international community today.環(huán)境惡化是當今國際社會普遍關注的全球性問題。

2.The role of dopants and contaminants in degradation cannot be ignored.雜質(zhì)和污染對退化的作用不能忽視。

Food Security

The World Food Summit of 1996 defined food security as existing “when all people at all times have access to sufficient, safe, nutritious food to maintain a healthy and active life”.Commonly, the concept of food security is defined as including both physical and economic access to food that meets people's dietary needs as well as their food preferences.In many countries, health problems related to dietary excess are an ever increasing threat, In fact, malnutrion and foodborne diarrhea are become double burden.Food security is built on three pillars:

Food availability: sufficient quantities of food available on a consistent basis.Food access: having sufficient resources to obtain appropriate foods for a nutritious diet.Food use: appropriate use based on knowledge of basic nutrition and care, as well as adequate water and sanitation.Food security is a complex sustainable development issue, linked to health through malnutrition, but also to sustainable economic development, environment, and trade.There is a great deal of debate around food security with some arguing that:

There is enough food in the world to feed everyone adequately;the problem is distribution.Future food needs canbe met by current levels of production.National food security is paramountor may notand food, agricultural and rural development policies-offset the diverse(and possibly negative)impacts of international policies, such as those relating to international trade?

How can the overall economic gains from trade benefit those who are most likely to be suffering from food insecurity? Do gains “trickle down” to enhance economic access to food for the poor?

How can food and agricultural production and trade be restrained from the over-exploitation of natural resources that may jeopardize domestic food security in the long term? How to ensure that imported food products are of acceptable quality and safe to eat?

The world grain market has been witnessing speculative fluctuations these days.Russia's decision to extend its ban on wheat exports from end of this year to virtually the end of 2011 to tide over the severe crop loss and the reported panic hoarding of staple foods is causing global food prices to rise further.There's more bad news: farm outputs in other countries across Europe and Asia(and in Australia)are declining.The UN Food and Agriculture Organization has called a special meeting in Rome later this month to discuss how the global food supply problem should be addressed.Given the global situation, the Chinese government had to act fast.That is precisely what the State Council, or China's Cabinet, has done.Earlier this week, the State Council vowed to strengthen regulations to control food and grocery prices.This is a welcome move to help consumers, especially during the festival season.In all likelihood, the government plans to take further action, if needed, at least till the beginning of next year.Such actions could include financial commitment.Besides, lawmakers are expected to urge the government at their national session in March to intensify its efforts further.Earlier this year, the government took the very important decision to import more grains.From January to July, the overall trade in farm products showed a deficit bigger than the previous year's.Much of this, however, should be seen as a precautionary move to capitalize on generally low food prices rather than an emergency measure to meet any shortage in the domestic market.China, as a matter of policy, has basically relied on its own resources for staple food supplies.The country's agricultural specialists usually pride themselves for being able to feed more than 20 percent of the world's population despite having less than 10 percent of its arable land.To be precise, the country meets about 95 percent of its food demand from domestic sources.China cannot shirk its responsibility simply because there is no alternative.And the responsibility to stabilize the domestic and global markets has increased manifold because of climate change and freaky weather.According to forecasts, this year's global grain output is likely to fall by more than 5 percent from last year's 681 million tons to 646 million tons.In contrast, China's summer crop this year, which mainly comprises wheat and makes up roughly one-fourth of its total yearly farm output, was 123.1 million tons, slightly less than last year's 123.5 million tons.But National Development and Reform Commission officials say that wheat production this year was actually 1 million tons more than last year.As for the autumn crop, specialists have said corn production could increase by 4 million tons from last year's record output to 168 million tons this year.This year's food security may be ensured, but it would take much greater efforts to ensure food security in the coming years.The national grain reserve system has to be strengthened and, hopefully, expanded to cover some non-staple but financially important products.New investments have to be made to overcome the devastation that floods in the last two months have caused.The waters have not only washed away crops, but also destroyed farm waterworks across extensive areas.China cannot yet afford to relax in its efforts to ensure its food security
