On January 13, 2016, France became the first country in the world to pass a law requiring supermarkets to donate food that is approaching its expiration date (保质期) instead of throwing it away. The regulation that applies to supermarkets over 4,000 square feet requires stores to sign official donation agreements with local food banks.
The law also makes it illegal for stores to pour water over nearly-expired food, or store it inside locked warehouses until it is picked up by the garbage trucks. These measures are often undertaken by supermarkets to prevent the hungry from searching for food through the dustbins.
Though that may appear cruel, the stores claim they do it to avoid potential food poisoning that could occur if the product is on its way past its expiry. Those who do not obey the new law face the risk of heavy fines.
Also, excess goods like yogurt or milk that are likely to go bad quickly are now allowed to be donated directly to the food banks. Though this has always been possible, the current process is long and complex, making it difficult for producers to give away the food in a timely manner.
France’s food banks are of course thrilled about the possibility of receiving extra food. Jacques Bailet, who heads a network of French food banks called the Banques Alimentaires, says that of the 110,000 tons of goods received annually, only 36,000 tons comes from supermarkets. Bailet estimates (估计) that just a 15% increase in supermarket donations would translate to over 10 million additional meals to feed the hungry each year.
Though this is a great first step, Arash Dermabarsh, the activist responsible for the grassroots movement that led to the ban, is not done. He now wants to extend the law to other places like restaurants and also try to convince other countries in the European Union to pass similar regulations. These steps are necessary because of the over 9 million tons of food wasted in France; an astonishing 67% is thrown away by consumers, with supermarkets and restaurants making up the rest.
1.What should stores do with nearly-expired food?
A. Throw it away. B. Send it to the hungry.
C. Store it in refrigerators. D. Give it away to food banks.
2.What does the underlined word “excess” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Extra. B. Cheap.
C. Seasonal. D. Returned.
3.What might Bailet agree with about the French food banks?
A. They have a lot of expired food.
B. They will get much benefit from the law.
C. Their food is enough for the people in need.
D. Their food mainly comes from supermarkets.
4.What does Dermabarsh plan to do?
A. Build more food banks in France.
B. Make the law take effect in more places.
C. Organize a campaign to promote this law.
D. Raise consumers awareness of waste reduction.
