As prices and building costs keep rising, the do-it-yourself'(DIY) trend（趨勢(shì)） in the U.S. continues to grow.

“We needed furniture（家具）for our living room,” says John Ross, “and we just didn't have enough money to buy it. So we decided to try making a few tables and chairs.” John got married six months ago, and like many young people these days, they are struggling to make a home at a time when the cost of living is very high. The Rosses took a 2-week course for $280 at a night school. Now they build all their furniture and make repairs around the house.

Jim Hatfield has three boys and his wife died. He has a full-time job at home as well as in a shoe making factory. Last month, he received a car repair bill for $420. “I was deeply upset (焦慮)about it. Now I've finished a car repair course（課程）, I should be able to fix the car by myself.”

John and Jim are not unusual people. Most families in the country are doing everything they can to save money so they can fight the high cost of living. If you want to become a “do-it-yourselfer”, you can go to DIY classes. And for those who don't have time to take a course, there are books that tell you how you can do things yourself.

Imagine the tallest building in the United States. Fill that large building 44 times with rotten (腐爛的)fruits and vegetables．Now you know how much food Americans waste every year．

It is hard to believe, right? About 133 .billion pounds of food get .thrown away. That's one, third of all the food we produce. And a lot of it is thrown away for one simple reason: It's ugly.

The problem is that nature isn't perfect. Apples can get scarred(留下疤痕)by storms. Cucumbers grow in C shapes. Carrots change into unusual fork-like forms. Watermelons get too big to fit on a refrigerator shelf. These crazy-looking fruits and vegetables may .taste great. But most grocery stores refuse to sell them. Store owners say people judge food by how it looks. No one wants a tomato that looks like a two-headed monster. (怪物). But what if you could buy that tomato for half-price?

A new movement is trying to make people see the "beauty" in ugly food. Some stores are selling ugly produce. It tastes the same. And you pay less for it because the. food doesn't, look perfect.

Usually, the stores find a nicer word than "ugly'; A Canadian chain uses "naturally imperfect". In some US stores, it's "misfit produce". Whatever you call it, ugly food helps many .people. Farmers get paid for food they were going to have to throw away. Shoppers get cheaper fruits and vegetables. The ugly-food movement will also help some of the 44 million Americans who don't have enough to eat. Many groups give the ugly produce to hungry people.

So really, who cares if that carrot looks a little ... ugly?

1.We can know from the text that ________.

A. food is thrown mostly because it goes bad

B. food waste is a serious problem in America

C. the uglier the food is, the better it tastes

D. America produces more food than Americans can eat

2.What is the "beauty" in ugly food?

A. It tastes the same but costs much less.

B. It does much good to people.

C. It is useful to hungry people.

D. It tastes just as good as normal-looking produce.

3.The ugly-food movement is intended to ________.

A. call on people to help the poor

B. persuade grocery stores to sell ugly produce

C. prove the value 0fugty produce

D. advise people not to waste food
