20．　　Do you know when and where ice cream was created?It has a long and interesting history.
　　The earliest ice cream was eaten in China many centuries ago. People at that time would put orange juice on the ice or get something cool to drink. Later, this idea traveled to Italy. Around 1669, it was popular to serve ice cream in coffee shops in Paris. Most of the shops were owned by Italians. Among them the first successful one belonged to (属于) a man named Francesco Procopius. Ice cream was brought to America in the early 1700s, and it quickly became the favorite of Americans. President George Washington had ice cream pots and machines in his kitchen. Dolly Madison, the wife of President Madison, was the first one to serve it in the White House. She made her guests very happy when she served such desserts.
　　Before ice cream was sold in stores, it was made and kept at a very low temperature (温度) first. It took a lot of work to mix cream, eggs, fruit and ice. Nancy Johnson, an American woman who was good at machines, invented the ice cream freezer in 1846. Five years later, Jacob Flu opened the first ice cream factory in Baltimore, Maryland. Her business quickly came to other states.
　　Today in the United States, ice cream is not only a kind of food, but also a way of life.

21．　　People in Western countries are eating less meat these days, because it is good for their health or because they want to protect animals. But now they have another reason.
　　Eating less meat can help to stop climate (气候) change, according to a recent study published in Nature.
　　Raising livestock (家畜) is bad for the environment. When animals like cows digest(消化)food, their stomachs make greenhouse gases, which are an important reason for global warming. 17 percent of greenhouse gas emissions (排放) come from livestock farming, The New York Times reported.
　　In addition, to raise these livestock, people have to cut down forests and turn them into farms. Forests play a key role in fighting global warming because they absorb (吸收) greenhouse gases.
　　Eating less meat could cut global food-related emissions by almost 1/3 by 2050, the study found. Keeping a no﹣meat diet in the long term could bring down emissions by 63 percent.
　　But eating less meat won't be easy. According to the study, people in Western countries will need to eat 90 percent less meat than they do now in order to make a difference to our climate. Scientists are now trying to find new foods to take the place of meat.
　　Some say that insects (昆虫) could help. A 2013 UN report said that eating insects is healthier and, better for the environment. They produce 75 percent less greenhouse gases than livestock.
　　Some experts are creating lab-grown meat. They make meat in a lab using livestock cells. In March, US company JUST said people in the US might be able to buy its lab-grown meat by the end of this year.
