冰淇淋是生活中不可缺少的一道美食。夏天没胃口时,尝些冰淇淋,是一个迅速补充体力降低体温的好方法。尤其对小朋友来说更是挡不住的诱惑,聪明的妈妈能在小朋友不愿吃饭时,偶尔改变方式以冰淇淋取代主食,同样能摄取营养和热量,漂亮的颜色又让人产生食欲。
你知道吗?美国每年能销售10亿加仑的冰淇淋,8%的牛奶最终变成冷冻食品。如今,各种各样的冰淇淋店更是遍布世界。现在就让我们一起看看冰淇淋的历史吧。
The earliest reports of people enjoying flavored ice desserts come from the Romans and the Chinese. Marco Polo returned from his famous expedition with fruit-flavored ices, reporting that Asians had been making them for thousands of years. These delicacies became popular in France in the 1500s, but only among royalty. Over the next few centuries, the process of making them evolved from hauling mountain ice to salt/ice freezing methods. Cream was introduced as an ingredient, and by the 1700s, people were enjoying a dessert that was very similar to today's ice cream.
The hand-cranked ice cream freezer was first developed by Nancy Johnson in 1846. Ice was readily available from large warehouses in that era, so ice cream became a treat that could be enjoyed by almost anyone, not just the rich. Ice cream making was revolutionized again in 1851, when Jacob Fussel started the first wholesale ice cream manufacturing operation in Baltimore, Maryland. Fussel's dairy business had excess cream and he couldn't figure out what to do with it. He tried using it to make ice cream, and before long his ice cream business outsold the rest of the dairy.
The business slowly evolved for the next few decades. Manufacturing methods and ingredients improved, while refrigeration technology became cheaper and more efficient. By the 1920s, home refrigerators and freezers became more common, which gave the ice cream industry another boost. Sugar was rationed in the US during World War I, but the ice cream industry convinced the government that ice cream was an "essential food”. Ice cream factories were allotted sugar rations and production continued.
Ice cream increased in popularity until the Depression years caused a drop in sales for virtually all non-essential goods. Sales increased in the years leading up to World War II before leveling off in the post-war years. The rise of the giant supermarket created demand for cheaper, mass-produced ice cream, but quality suffered. The 1960s saw a resurgence in "premium"ice cream, while the following decades saw the market fragment into low-fat varieties for the health-conscious, including frozen yogurt, fruit bars, ice milk, fat-free ice cream, and dozens of other varieties. However, ice cream still makes up about 60 percent of the market share among frozen desserts. While ice cream is enjoyed worldwide, it has become an American tradition
舞动青春,唱响未来,伴梦远航。曾经的梦想,如今却沉没大海,想要寻找,却始终没有方向。梦想,请你归来,重新在我的身边滋长,我定会给你留些空隙,留些阳光,让你茁壮成长。
青春的音符在蔚蓝的空中跳动,人生没有梦想,就如同生命没有了阳光。曾经,那个年少的我和其他人一样做着同一个梦,有着和别人一样的远大理想,可那时的我却不懂得珍惜。乘着梦想之船在汪洋大海中遨游,可不知何时,我迷失了方向,顿时感到万分迷茫,却浑然不知,我的人生之梦早已被我丢弃在远方,回过头来寻找,却找不到方向,不知该何去何从。有人说:“梦想无情,你若不珍惜,它定会远离你。”现实果真如此,因为我的贪婪,未能给梦想留些空隙,也未曾关心呵护过它,于是它便沉没于大海,远离了我的世界,跟我玩起了捉迷藏。梦想是我的伙伴,没有了伙伴,我的内心无比惆怅,生活也变的枯燥乏味没有一点雅致。失去了伙伴同样也失去了奋斗的\'目标和动力,在失去中也懂得了珍惜。
遨游在大海深处,只为寻找我那丢失的伙伴。经历了波涛汹涌的海浪,经受了狂风暴雨的击打,终于,在大海的深处,在一株美丽的珊瑚旁找到了我丢失的伙伴,发现它时,它是如此憔悴,生命也已奄奄一息,浑身布满了伤痕,我知道它一定非常伤心,经历了各种风雨才找到了这唯一的避难所,它被美丽的珊瑚和大海里其它的海洋生物呵护着。它用血的代价告诉我,绝对不能再把它丢弃,要好好呵护它,给它留一个小小的空间。抑制住内心的欣喜,小心的把它捧在手心,用心去为它擦拭伤口,抹去它为我流下的泪。
重回梦想之船,我们找回了最初的方向,继续航行,经历风雨,它是我最亲密的伙伴,与它共享青春之歌。但这次无论怎样,我都不会再把它放开,我会重新供给它足够的养分,让它对我重拾信心,在我身边茁壮成长。
寻梦之旅将要返航,原本波涛汹涌的海面此刻也变得极其平静,一切都将会结束,但梦想之旅仍会继续。
骑着脚踏车,迎着微风,带着梦想奔向远方。
如果说青春是一幅画卷,那么梦想就是一片天空;如果说生命是汪洋大海,那么梦想就是涓涓细流;如果说人生是一场戏,那么梦想就是主角。
给梦想留些空隙,让梦想有安身之地;给梦想插上翅膀,让梦想展翅飞翔;给梦想一个笑脸,让梦想如沐春风。
梦想牵制未来,梦想创造未来,梦想展现未来。因为有梦,人生才如此精彩;倘若无梦,一切都会黯然失色。梦想犹为重要,敞开梦想之门,梦想是我们动力的源泉,给梦想留些空隙,让梦想尽情飞翔是每个梦想拥有者应有的责任。
给梦想留些空隙,让梦想绽放出更绚丽的光彩,让我们的旅途更完整。
不管在什么国家,只要事实上没有全球觉悟,没有彻底人道的理想,则那个国家的`最大,环境受难者就一定是下层苦难者,而富翁权贵们都有最好的生活环境。
正是这样!所以,任何社会要求改善环境,控制环境污染的最强烈的冲动总是存在于群众,尤其是有较高认识能力和较强使命感的知识分子中间,世界环境保护运动无一例外地表现出了首先由群众自发发起的规律。
要问人属不属于自然,是,再问人类的行动是不是亦属于自然属性,当然亦答是,既然如此为何分自然与人为?人类的破坏哪有违反自然?逻辑上有无吊诡?又问,保育专家、文化雅士高倡回归自然,是否回归茹毛饮血,生吞活剥,拒绝文明?读了许多关于环境方面的书以后,不得不修改以前的观点,然而,草枯了可以再长,春去了可以再来,可一旦破坏了环境,会使整个地球都黯然失色了。“沧浪之水清,可以灌我足”屈原的这句话,早已成为历史的感叹了。
真可惜啊!人类永远也不会爱惜自己目前所拥有的事情,但当失去了那事物时,人类才懂得去珍惜。现在的地球受到了许多不同类型的污染,二十世纪末,只有少部分的人类去珍惜,保护它……这样下去,到了二十世纪后半期,由于地球受到了各种污染,最终地球只会成为炼狱。
如果这一代人任意以过度开发和破坏为代价,为中华腾飞打好了基础,当下一代人准备“飞”的时候,却发现没有资源可用了,那是不是也很悲哀呢?日本留给后代的有森林和海洋;美国;留给后代的有东西海岸和中部,中国留给后代有什么呢?只有一个不太完整的西部,能不能饶了西部,多少给子孙留下点什么?!
