Recently I was invited to a friend’s house for supper and had a meal I have never had before.
All the friends invited were a little 31 . It’s not that Ben is unsociable , or a bad cook , but it’s just that he never 32 more than he has to. So how come he was inviting us round for a meal? Had he bought something 33 for his friends? He greeted us at the door and showed us into his dining room where a 34 table was waiting for us.“Nothing but the 35 for my friends!”said Ben. We all sat down and looked 36 at each other---what did he 37 to?
Ben returned with four bowls of hot soup.“It’s a 38 of carrots , potatoes and tomatoes,”said Ben. The next 39 was also a little strange in that we didn’t quite know what it was again. It’s just 40 mixture of vegetable.
As we ate we chatted and finally the 41 turned back to what we were eating.“Was there a recipe（食谱）for this,” asked Marina ,“or did you 42 it up?”Ben put his fork down. “What I cooked 43 what I could find.”Marina was surprised.“But you can find anything in supermarkets these days.”“But there’s 44 choice in what you can find 45 supermarkets.” He replies.
46 that we had all finished the food , Ben decided to tell the truth. He had read recently that supermarkets usually 47 away 5 percent of their food every day. So Ben decided to look inside his local supermarket bins. There he found food that was slightly out of 48 , boxes of throw-away vegetables and fruit.
So Ben had 49 provided a decent(不错的) meal for his friends , and made us aware of the fact that there are many poor people who need the food , but the amount of food thrown away is enough to 50 millions of people.
