"Mom,why do we have to have oranges every day?" Bentley asked.
"Well,______ we grow them,there are plenty around," his mom replied.
"Does every kid eat as many oranges as we do?" he asked.
"No,surely not. There are parts of the world that don't have the ______ of weather that oranges grow in. We're actually very ______!" "So some kids don't eat oranges at all?"
"We actually send oranges all over the world,so that if people can't ______ their own oranges,they can still buy and eat them," said Mom.
"Is there food that I like but doesn't grow here?"
"There is one thing in the dip you like,artichokes," replied Mom.
"I never knew!" cried out Bentley. "What ______?"
"Plenty of things! Food and products move the same ______. People move themselves too."
"Wow! I never thought about where all our food comes from. It's amazing," Bentley said.
"I'm glad you asked. I'm sorry you are ______ of eating oranges all the time,but I hope now it makes sense(讲得通)why we do it."
"Yes,but I ______ might take a break from them every once in a while. Maybe I'll try to grow my own artichokes!" Bentley replied.
