Ifthat’s hard to understand, let’s keep it as simple as the arugula at the backof my refrigerator. Mike Curtin sees my arugula story all the time — but forhim, it’s more like 12 boxes of donated strawberries nearing their last days.Curtin is CEO of DC Central Kitchen in Washington, D.C., which recovers foodand turns it into healthy meals. Lastyear it recoveredmore than 807,500 pounds of food by taking donations and collecting blemished produce that otherwise would have rotted in fields. And the strawberries?Volunteers will wash, cut, and freeze or dry them for use in meals down theroad.
我在前面提了一个问题,引用了上面这段材料,但仔细看还有一个问题:文中的recover food 如何理解理解啊?重点是不理解recover 的意思,我查了一下词典,recover的使用方法如下,但没一条套得上文中 recover 的使用方法:
此处的recover就是“收购”的意思
一家之言,仅供参考;
勤查英英,必有所获!
