27.Which wordcan bestdescribe HarrisonA.Patient.B.Diligent.C.Patriotic.D.Devoted.CRecently,campaigners haveencouraged usto buylocal food.This reducesnfdod miles,that is,thedistance foodtravels toget fromthe producertotheretailer.They reasonthatthehigher thefood miles,themore carbon emissions.Buying localfood,therefore,has a lower carbon footprint andis moreenvironmentally friendly.However,the realstory isnot assimple asthat.If ouraim isto reducecarbonemissions,we mustlookat thewhole farmingprocess,not justtransportation.Other processes,including fertilization,storage,heating andirrigation,contribute muchmore.In fact,imported foodoften hasa lowercarbon footprint than locally grown food.Take applesforexample.In autumn,when apples are harvested,the bestoption fora Britishresident isto buyBritish apples.However,the appleswe buyin winteror springhave beenkept refrigeratedfbr months,and thisuses upa lotofenergy.In spring,therefore,it ismore energy-efficient toimport them from New Zealand,where theyarein season.Heating alsouses alotofenergy,which is why growingtomatoes inheated greenhousesin theUKis lessenvironmentallyfriendlythan importingthemfromin,where thecrop growswell inthe localclimate.We mustalso takeinto accountthe typeof transport.Transporting foodby aircreates about50timesmore emissionsthan shippingit.However,only asmall proportionof goodsare flowntotheconsumercountry,and theseare usuallyhigh value,perishable itemswhich wecannot producelocally.Even then,these foodsmay nothave a higher carbon footprint than locallygrown food.For example,beans flowninfrom Kenyaare grown in sunnyfields usingmanual labourand naturalfertilizers,unlike inBritain,wherewe useoil-based fertilizersand dieselmachinery.Therefore,the totalcarbon footprintis stilllower.It!salsoworth rememberingthataproducts journeydoes notend atthe supermarket.The distanceconsumerstravel tobuy theirfood,andthekindoftransport theyuse willalso addto itscarbon footprint.Sodriving along wayto shopfbr foodwill negateany environmentalbenefitsofbuying locallygrownproduce.Recently,some supermarketshave beentrying toraise awarenessof food miles too.But ultimately,themeasures aretoo simple.Lots ofdifferent factorscontribute toa foodscarbonfootprintbesides thedistanceit hastravelled.

28.Why isimporting applesfrom NewZealand moreenergy-efficient forBritish residentsin springA.Itreduces foodmiles.B.British applesare inshort supply.C.NewZealandapplesarecheaper.D.British appleshave beenstored underenergy-consuming conditions.

29.Which ofthe followingstatements iscorrect according tothe passageA.Only consideringfoodmilesis anoversimplified wayto assessa foodsenvironmental impact.B.All importedfood hasahigher carbonfootprintthanlocallygrownfood.C.Beans flownin fromKenya havehigher carbonfootprints thangrowninBritain.D.Transporting foodby airalways resultsinahighercarbonfootprintthangrowing localfood.
