Take the ingredients of an all - American meal: a burger and fries. At the average U.S. grocery store, they now cost about $4.69, roughly a dollar more than in 2019. That's up some 30% over five years—though the rise since 2023 has been only pennies. An agricultural economist from USDA breaks down the factors bite by bite. BREAD Strong competition drove the price of bread extremely low from 2014 to 2019. Then in 2022, an international market shock sent wheat prices soaring, allowing bakeries to bring bread prices in line with their labor, energy, and transportation costs. LETTUCE An insect - born virus destroyed huge swaths of lettuce crops in California in 2022, causing costs to rise. The price has fallen since then, but labor and transportation costs are still higher than in 2019, which means suppliers aren’t rushing to bring down prices further. TOMATOES Farmers in both Mexico and the U.S. have been able to produce additional tomatoes without spending more money to do so, which leads to the fall of their prices from 2022 to 2025. POTATOES Potato crops in 2021 and 2022 were severely affected by drought and wildfire smoke, reducing yields. With fewer potatoes in the U.S. and abroad, prices jumped. In 2023, though, U.S. potato production increased for the first time in seven years, which should temper prices. CHEESE The price of milk was so low in 2022 that dairy farmers couldn’t make money, so they culled (捕杀) their herds. Cheese buyers, worried about being left empty - handed, started offering higher prices to suppliers. More culling may be coming in 2026, milk - production reports show. BEEF There were 87.2 million cows in the U.S. in early 2024, the fewest since 1951. Farmers reduced their herds to save money during drought years. Now, as they try to rebuild their herds, they are competing over the limited animals available. Cow and beef prices keep ticking up, and economists predict they’ll hit record highs this year. 21. What’s the purpose of the passage A. To present a problem. B. To analyse the reasons. C. To criticize a phenomenon. D. To come up with solutions. 22. Which ingredient’s price has dropped over the past four years A. Bread. B. Beef. C. Tomatoes. D. Potatoes. 23. What leads to the increase of price of the lettuce now A. A kind of virus. B.
