2．What do you use your fridge for：It can not only keep your food cold，but also make ice and freeze food．But in the future smart fridges may do much more than you can think．They may tell you what food is inside，what food you need，what food is healthy for you，and even shop for you，too!
   Some companies are making online fridges which have a computer screen on the door．And it can be very useful that the computer is linked to a supermarket through the Internet．For example，when you finish your orange juice，you can put the empty juice carton（紙盒包裝） near the computer screen．The computer reads the bar code on the juice carton．Then it orders more orange juice from the supermarket．You can also use the computer screen to order other things from the supermarket．The computer screen has a series of things that are in the store．You can choose what you need．The supermarket will send the food to your home．
   Companies are making other kinds of "smart" appliances（電器），too．There is a new kind of microwave oven（微波爐） which has a computer memory．It can remember 365 different cookbooks．There is also a smart mixer that can remember cookbooks．Even it can test ingredients for you!

3．Everyone knows that fish is good for health．（1）

But it seems that many people don't cook fish at home．Americans eat only about fifteen pounds of fish per person per year，but we eat twice as much fish in restaurants as at home．Buying，storing，and cooking fish isn't difficult．（2）

This text is about how to buy and cook fish in an easy way．
（3）

Fresh fish should smell sweet：you should feel that you're standing at the ocean's edge．Any fishy or strong smell means the fish isn't fresh．（4）

When you have bought a fish and arrive home，you'd better store the fish in the refrigerator if you don't cook it immediately，but fresh fish should be stored in your fridge for only a day or two．Frozen fish isn't as tasty as the fresh one．
There are many common methods used to cook fish．（5）

First，clean it and season it with your choice of spices（調(diào)料）．Put the whole fish on a plate and steam it in a steam pot for 8 to 10 minutes if it weighs about one pound．（A larger one will take more time．）Then，it's ready to serve．
