New rules will let millions of Americans know where more of their food comes from. The law is known as COOL -- Country of Origin Labeling(标签).
American congress first passed the law in 2002. Stores have had to label seafood by country of origin since 2005. But industry pressure delayed other requirements until last week.
Products that must now be labeled include fresh fruits and vegetables, muscle meats and some kinds of nuts. But the rules are complex, and many foods are not included. For example, organ meats are free to be labeled. So are processed foods, including cooked or smoked foods.
The same food may sometimes have to be labeled and other times not. Fresh or frozen peas, for example, have to be labeled but not canned peas. Foods that are mixed with other foods are also excluded. Mixed nuts, for example, do not need to be labeled. The same is true of a salad mix that contains different things like lettuce and carrots. Or a fruit cup that combines different fruits. Also, the law doesn’t include restaurants and other food service organizations. Department of Agriculture officials say the law is really meant for larger grocery stores.
The United States has imported more and more food in recent years to save money and expand choices. Country-of-origin labeling has become more common lately but has still been limited in many stores.
Food safety is one reason why some shoppers pay close attention to where foods came from. For example, when a large number of people recently got sick from salmonella(沙门菌病), officials blamed peppers from Mexico. Yet the last big food scare involved spinach grown in California. But labeling is also a way for people to know they are getting what they want. Some want to buy local foods or foods from a particular country.
The country-of-origin labeling law gives stores 30 days to correct any violations(违反) that are found. Stores and suppliers that are found to be deliberately violating the law could be fined 1,000 dollars per violation. Federal inspectors are not to take action to enforce the law for six months to give time for an education campaign.
Some food safety activists say they are generally pleased with the law. They call it a good step that will give people more useful information.
1.Why has more and more food been imported to the United States in recent years?
A. It is economical and provides people with more choices.
B. Foreign food is of higher quality than native food.
C. Americans need more and more food recently.
D. The United States is short of food supply.
2.Consumers are more concerned about where foods come from because________.
A. they are curious about the origin of the food.
B. most of them are particular about the tastes
C. they are concerned about food safety
D. most of them are food safety activists
3.The new rules of the country-of-origin labeling law will come into effect________.
A. right now B. in a month C. in three months D. in half a year
4.Which of the following can be inferred from the text?
A. Store owners are most likely to be the supporters of the law.
B. The government of America will possibly forbid importing peppers from Mexico.
C. Federal inspectors couldn’t take measures to enforce the law.
D. Most Americans prefer imported vegetables to the vegetables grown in local places.

Jessie's Glove
I do a lot of management training each year for the Circle K Corporation, a national chain of convenience stores. 21 the topics we discuss is the retention （保持）of quality employees -- a real challenge to managers when you consider the pay scale （薪水标准）in the service industry. During these discussions, I asked the participants, "What has caused you to stay long enough to become a manager?" Some time back a new 22 took the question and 23 said, "It was a $19 baseball glove."
Cynthia told the group that she 24 took a Circle K clerk job as an interim （过渡时期）position 25 she looked for something 26 .On her second or third day behind the counter, she received a phone call from her nine-year-old son, Jessie. He needed a baseball glove for Little League. She explained that 27 a single mother, money was very 28 , and her first check would 29 go for paying 30 . Perhaps she could buy his baseball glove with her second or third check..
When Cynthia arrived for work the next morning, Patricia, the store manager, asked her to come to the small room in the back of the store that 31 as an office. Cynthia 32 if she had done something wrong or left some part of her job incomplete from the day before. She was concerned and confused．
Patricia handed her a box. "I overheard you talking to your son 33 ," she said, "and I know that it is hard to 34 things to kids. This is a baseball glove for Jessie because he may not understand how 35 he is, even though you have to pay bills 36 you can buy gloves. You know we can't pay good people like you as much as we would like to; but we 37 care, and I want you to know you are important to 38 ."
The thoughtfulness, sympathy and 39 of this convenience store manager demonstrates vividly that people remember more how much an employer 40 than how much the employer pays. An important lesson for the price of a Little League baseball glove.
