17. Where does your food come from How is it made？ These days， many people worry about food safety． But food safety is not a new worry． In 1906， Upton Sinclair （辛克莱，美国作家） wrote the Jungle． The book is the story of a poor family in Chicago． It is also about the dangerous ways that food was prepared． People were so worried that the U．S． started testing food．

Although food safety systems usually work， there can be problems． Sometimes mistakes are made． For example， a truck might carry eggs and then ice cream． The ice cream could make people sick when the truck isn’t cleaned before carrying it． Other problems are not mistakes． Sometimes companies break rules to make more money． When this happens， people don’t know if their food is safe． ________We should take actions to make food safer！
