An Oil for Life
Maria Alcal?of Madrid speaks for many Mediterranean people when she says that \meal without olive oil would be a bore.\fell in love with olives. That occurred before recorded history. However, there is evidence that the cultivation of olive trees began in countries around the Mediterranean Sea in approximately 4,000 B.C., and 2,000 years after that people in the eastern Mediterranean region began to produce oil from olives. The Mediterranean still accounts for 99 percent of all world olive oil production.
From ancient times until today, the basic process of producing the oil is the same. First, whole olives are crushed. Then, the liquid is separated from the solids. After that, the valuable oil is separated from the water.
Many olive growers maintain their ancient traditions and still harvest the olives by hand. \harvest in the traditional way,\less expensive to do it with machines, but it's more a social thing. Twenty people come to help with the harvest, and we pay them in oil.\
Olive oil has had a variety of uses through its long history. In ancient times, olive oil was used as money and as medicine. It was even used during war -- heated up and dropped down on
attackers. It is still used in religious ceremonies. It is great for protecting the freshness of fish and cheese. There are even olive oil lamps and olive oil soaps.
One important study showed that Mediterranean people have the lowest rate of heart disease among Western nations. This is partly associated with their frequent use of olive oil. Other studies have shown that food cooked in olive oil is healthier, and that eating olive oil twice a day reduces women's risk of getting breast cancer. The world is beginning to understand its benefits, and olive oil is no longer an unusual sight at dinner tables outside the Mediterranean region. The olive oil producing countries now sell large amounts of olive oil to countries in Europe, Asia, Africa, and North and South America.
Olive oil enhances the lives of people everywhere. Its benefits, recently confirmed by science, were already understood in ancient times. Mediterranean people are happy to share their secret with the world.

Which step occurs first in olive oil production? Question 4. Which use of olive oil is NOT mentioned in the article? Question 5. Why has the author included information about several studies of olive oil? After You Listen Script
Trans fats are specially treated cooking oils often used in the process of preparing various foods sold in restaurants and stores. Until recently, trans fats accounted for nearly all the cooking oil used in fast food restaurants. Recently, as a result of health studies, trans fats have been associated with higher rates of heart disease and with higher chances of getting cancer and other health problems. Based on this new evidence, one American city recently passed a law that limits trans fats to, at most, approximately one half gram in any food product.

Sofrito Sensation
Puerto Rico, a Caribbean island rich in history and remarkable natural beauty, has a cuisine all its own. Immigration to the island has helped to shape its cuisine, with people from all over the world making various contributions to it. However, before the arrival of these immigrants, the island of Puerto Rico was already known as Borik閚 and was inhabited by the Ta韓o people. Ta韓o cuisine included such foods as rodents with sweet chili peppers, fresh shellfish, yams, and fish fried in corn oil.
Many aspects of Ta韓o cuisine continue today in Puerto Rican cooking, but it has been heavily influenced by the Spanish, who invaded Puerto Rico in 1508, and Africans, who were initially brought to Puerto Rico to work as slaves. Ta韓o cooking styles were mixed with ideas brought by the Spanish and Africans to create new dishes. The Spanish extended food choices by bringing cattle, pigs, goats, and sheep to the island. Africans also added to the island's food culture by introducing powerful, contrasting tastes in dishes like pi駉n ?plantains layered in ground beef. In fact, much of the food Puerto Rico is now famous for -- plantains, coffee, sugarcane, coconuts, and oranges -- was actually imported by foreigners to the island.
A common assumption many people make about Puerto Rican food is that it is very spicy. It's true that chili peppers are popular; aj?caballero in particular is a very hot chili pepper that Puerto Ricans enjoy. However, milder tastes are popular too, such as sofrito. The base of many Puerto Rican dishes, sofrito is a sauce made from chopped onions, garlic, green bell peppers, sweet chili peppers, oregano, cilantro, and a handful of other spices. It is fried in oil and then added to other dishes.
How to Make a Basic Sofrito
Ingredients 1 yellow onion; 2 cloves garlic; 1 green bell pepper; 3 to 4 sweet chili peppers; 3 cilantro (coriander) leaves; 1 tablespoon olive oil; 1/4 teaspoon dried whole oregano Directions
Remove skins from onion and garlic. Clean and prepare green bell and sweet chili peppers. Wash in water. Then finely chop these ingredients, including the cilantro leaves. Place a heavy-bottomed pot over low heat; add oil and oregano. Add the chopped ingredients. Continue cooking for about three to four minutes, stirring occasionally. A. Multiple Choice. Question 1. Who lived in Puerto Rico first? Question 2. Which of the following is a major point of the listening passage? Question 3. How much olive oil is used in the recipe for sofrito? Question 4. Which of the following is NOT true? Question 5. How is sofrito used? Script
Welcome to a world of small, beautiful works of art that you just can't stop yourself from eating: the world of Thai sweets. The mildness of this aspect of Thai cuisine provides some relief from the delicious but spicy main dishes. The base of Thai sweets -- perhaps rice, coconut, banana, or mango -- gives them a lovely taste that says \apples, mangoes, and oranges are even more beautiful and delicious than the real thing. Lovely rice cakes called kanom chan have layers of green, white, and pink, or are shaped like flowers. If you travel through Thailand on a hot day, you may occasionally see a child holding a colorful treasure in a plastic cup. It's delicious Thai flavored ice杗am kang sai. If you prefer ice cream,
coconut is the most popular among Thais, although traditional imported flavors such as vanilla or strawberry are also well-liked.

Throughout much of the Mediterranean, olives are an important aspect of everyday life. Walk through any Greek market and you'll find evidence of how important they really are. Here, on the island of Naxos, you'll see them in different sizes and in different colors: green, black, brown ... Tourist:
\found out the green olive and the black olive came from the same tree.\
Like this tourist, a lot of people assume that black and green olives come from different trees. In fact, most people probably wouldn't recognize an olive tree.
This time of year, on the hills of Naxos, the olive trees have flowers on them. Without the fruit, though, the tree isn't easy to identify.
Christina Lefteris, Naxos School of Ecology:
\some of the very old olive trees.\
To make green olives, you need to collect them when they are still young. Christina Lefteris:
\all of them. I think I would never say no to any olive.\Not everyone has the same liking for them.
Tourist:

It's true that olives are old. Some trees have been alive for thousands of years. In fact, olives have been an important part of life here since the early days of Greek civilization. In Greek tradition, Eirene, the goddess of peace, is shown carrying an olive branch. Even today, olives are associated with peace. If people want to end a war, they are said to \an olive branch.\Bolesch, L'Olivie Halki:
\away.\
Katherina Bolesch owns a remarkable shop in Naxos where everything is made from olives. Katherina Bolesch:
\Olive oil accounts for much of Greece's olive production. To produce the best liquid, olives are collected and processed once they have become black. The sooner they are pressed, the better the oil. Used for cooking, for light, and occasionally as medicine, the oil is believed to give good health and long life to those who use it. Christina Lefteris:
\And the olive trees themselves also help to give the land a feeling of peace. Christina Lefteris:
\a little soft, all their shape is quite mild. Something that lasts long, give fruits, I think it's a good feeling of what peace means.\Writing Answer Key
