 correct answer to each of the questions from 6 to 12.
 Before the mid-nineteenth century, people in the United States ate most foods only in season. 
 Drying, smoking and salting could preserve meat for a short time, but the availability of fresh meat, like 
 that of fresh milk, was very limited; there was no way to prevent spoilage. But in 1810, a French 
 inventor named Nicolas Appert developed the cooking-and-sealing process of canning. And in the 
 1850’s an American named Gail Borden developed a means of condensing and preserving milk. Canned 
 goods and condensed milk became more common during the 1860’s, but supplies remained low because 
 cans had to be made by hand. By 1880, however, inventors had fashioned stamping and soldering 
 machines that mass-produced cans from tinplate. Suddenly all kinds of food could be preserved and 
 bought at all times of the year.
 Other trends and inventions had also helped make it possible for Americans to vary their daily 
 diets. Growing urban population created demand that encouraged fruit and vegetable farmers to raise 
 more produce. Railroad refrigerator cars enabled growers and meat packers to ship perishables great 
 distances and to preserve them for longer periods. Thus, by the 1890’s, northern city dwellers could 
 enjoy southern and western strawberries, grapes, and tomatoes, previously available for a month at 
 most, for up to six months of the year. In addition, increased use of iceboxes enabled families to store 
 perishables. As easy means of producing ice commercially had been invented in the 1870’s, and by 
 1900 the nation had more than two thousand commercial ice plants, most of which made home 
 deliveries. The icebox became a fixture in most homes and remained so until the mechanized 
 refrigerator replaced it in the 1920’s and 1930’s.
 Almost everyone now had a more diversified diet. Some people continued to eat mainly foods 
 that were heavily in starches or carbohydrates, and not everyone could afford meat. Nevertheless, many
