Canning is a natural extension of the planting she does.With every planted food，Loe noted，there's a moment when it's bursting with its absolute peak flavor.“I try and keep it in a time capsule in a canning jar.”Loe said.“Canning for me is about knowing what's in your food，knowing where it comes from.”

　　In addition to being more in touch with the food she's eating，another joy comes from passing this knowledge and this desire for good food to her children：“Influencing them and telling them your opinion on not only being careful what we eat but understanding the_bigger_picture，”she said，“that if we don't take care of the earth，no one will.”

　　文章大意：本文讲述了特丽萨·洛和她的家人以身作则，号召大家自种自吃来保护环境的事迹。

　　5．The underlined word “prerequisite”(Para.1)is closest in meaning to “________”．

　　A．recipe B．substitute

　　C．requirement D．challenge

　　答案：C　词义猜测题。根据文章第一段第二句可知，特丽萨·洛和她的家人在仅为十分之一英亩的土地上种植，装罐和保存了他们食用的许多食物，与第一句中大农场与现代自种自吃生活方式之间的关系形成对比，可知自种自吃并不需要大面积的土地。故选C项。

　　6．Why does Loe suggest starting with herbs?
