The ice trade

Before refrigerators existed, there was ice. Without ice, people couldn't keep food cold, which meant they were limited to food that didn't spoil or food grown near where they lived. A businessman named Frederic Tudor understood that consumers, including food producers, wanted to keep supplies fresh. In 1806, he founded a company that shipped ice from frozen lakes, ponds, and streams to other parts of the United States and the world. Customers were able to keep food for longer and more safely. The ice allowed farmers to send food further and fishermen to store their catch. The ice trade forever changed the health of Americans by making it easier to preserve food.

Passage 2

The fridge

Although the first refrigerator for home use was available in 1913, it wasn't until 1927 that refrigerators looked the way they do today. Between 1913 and 1927, various inventors toyed with different ways to build the refrigerator. Some versions had many parts that had to be placed in different rooms of a house. Other versions came as a single unit, but they were big and expensive. General Electric was the first company to make a refrigerator, the "Monitor Top", which was self contained and affordable. More Americans were able to keep fresh food in their homes, improving health and increasing the variety of foods they ate. However, this model used dangerous chemicals. In the 1930s, newer and safer chemicals were used in refrigerators, making them the essential appliance we have today. What detail is mentioned in both passages?

TO.

Farmers and fishermen benefited from keeping food cold.

SECOND.

The ice trade made consumers want refrigerators.

C.

Cold foods improve freshness and are healthier.

RE.

Refrigerators can be large and expensive.
