奶酪的由来 The Origin of Cheese英语作文
The Origin of Cheese
No one knows who has made the first cheese,but an old legend says that it was an Arabian merchant.He put his milk in a pouch made from a sheep's stomach and set off across the desert.The jouncing of his camel,the desert heat,and the chemicals in the pouch lining made the milk separate into curds and whey.The thick part,or curd was the first cheese.
Ancient records show that cheese has been eaten for more than one thousand years.From the earliest times,it has been considered a very nourishing food.Americans eat less cheese than people in some countries do,yet they still consume eight to ten pounds a year per person.
Today cheese is made all over the world.Most cheese is made from cow's milk,because the supply of this milk is greater throughout the world.Smaller quantities come from the milk of other animals:goats, sheep,camels,and even reindeer.

奶酪的由来
没人了解是哪个做了第一块奶酪，不过据一个古老的故事，是一位阿拉伯商人制作了第一块奶酪。他将牛奶放进用羊胃制成的口袋里，启程穿越沙漠。骆驼的颠簸、沙漠的炎热及口袋衬里的化学物质使牛奶离别成凝乳和乳清。 粘稠的部分，或者说是凝乳就是最早的奶酪。
古时候记载表明大家吃奶酪的历史有1000多年。早期大家就觉得它是一种富有营养的食品。美国人比有的国家的人吃的`奶酪少，但每年每个人仍要消费掉8~10磅。
