地道美语听力练习:减少食物浪费

Jon:Wait! What are doing with that squishy tomato?

Marta:I'm tossing it. It's no good anymore.

Jon:I'll take it, and I'll take that stale bread, too.

Marta:Stop! You can't fish that out of the trash.

Jon:I'm trying to do my part to reduce food waste.

Tired vegetables are still okay to eat, as are bruised fruit.

Marta:Fine, but not once they've been discarded.

Stay out of my trash.

Jon:What you are going to do with this graying meat?

Marta:I was going to throw that out, too.

Jon:I'll take it. I'm sure I can make something edible with it.

Marta:You can't be serious.

I'm all for doing my part, but I draw the line at eating spoiled meat.

Jon:It's not spoiled.

It's just beyond the peak of freshness.

Marta:Well, be my guest. You can have all of this food.

Jon:And to show my thanks, I'll invite you over to lunch tomorrow.

Marta:Thanks, but no thanks.
