Food from the Old World and Food
From the New World
What do you eat for breakfast? Coffee and
eggs? Perhaps a banana? What about your
favorite dinner? Pizza and chocolate cake?
Chicken and rice? Meat and potatoes? Today,
many people in the world can buy all of these
foods easily. However, this has not always been
possible. In the past, these foods were not
available everywhere.
What’s the main idea?
A big change occurred about 500 years ago,
when people from the Old World began to
explore the New World. They found many
unfamiliar kinds of food in the New World. They
found potatoes, peanuts, tomatoes, chilies, corn
and chocolate. Today, many of these New World
foods are very common in Europe and Asia.
What are two collocations with verbs and the noun ANIMALS?
The explores brought food from the Old
World with them. They were many foods that
the people in the New World did not have at
that time. For example, there was no milk,
cheese or bananas. People of the New World did
not raise animals for food. Instead, they hunted
animals, as well as birds and insects. They did
not have chickens, cows, pigs, or sheep. These
animals came to the New World with European
explorers.
Between the fifteenth and seventeenth
centuries, explorers from Europe and Asia
brought crops, that is, useful plants, from their
countries to the New World. They planted crops
like wheat, apples, and sugar cane. Today these
crops are very common in North and South
America. The United States is the second largest
producer of apples and wheat, and Brazil is the
world’s largest producer of sugar cane.
What is a crop?
Define the word.
Give an example.
Is EXPLORER a noun or verb? What is the suffix?
Why did the population of the world grow in 18th and 19th century?
The explorers also brought new foods back to
their countries. Some foods, such as corn and
potatoes, became very important in the Old
World. Many New World crops are easy to grow
even when the soil and weather are not good.
New World crops like potatoes could also feed a
lot of people. This increase in food helped the
world’s population to grow quickly in the
eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.
What does rare mean?
Some New World foods, like corn and
potatoes, were available to almost everyone in
the Old World. However, other foods from the
New World, like chocolate and pineapples, were
only for rich people. They did not grow in the
Old World, so they were rare. Poor people could
not pay for them. In the seventeenth century,
pineapples were so valuable that people did not
eat them. They put them on their tables, like
flowers.
What is the main idea of this paragraph?
Many different foods are available all over the
world today, so it is sometimes difficult to
remember that this was not always true. Thirty
percent of all food plants in the world today
came from the New World. Think about ice
cream. Three of the most popular flavors of ice
cream are vanilla, chocolate, and strawberry. All
three of these flavors are from plants. Five
hundred years ago, these plants grew only in the
New World.
What does THIS refer to, in line THIS IS NOT ALWAYS TRUE?
