🥩 Some grocers, food manufacturers and restaurant chains weathered the supply-chain disruption in recent months in part because they use a common hedging practice: Locking in beef prices and quantities of meat purchases months in advance.
近幾個月以來，一些超市、食品供應商與連鎖餐廳抵禦了供應鏈中斷的影響，原因之一是他們採取了一種常見的避險操作：提前好幾個月鎖定牛肉價格與肉類購買量。
-weather 抵擋住、抵禦
-disruption 中斷、混亂
-in advance 提前、事先
🧐 Costco Wholesale Corp. and Jack in the Box Inc. are among the companies that have said they negotiate prices of some supplies in advance, providing finance chiefs with a forward look on costs. That practice became a key tool for these companies after the pandemic and prices soared.
好市多 (Costco) 和 Jack in the Box 等公司表示，他們已事先針對部分供應品的價格進行協商，為財務長提供關於成本的前瞻性展望。在疫情蔓延和價格飆升的當下，這種做法成為這些公司的關鍵工具。

✍常見用法：forward-looking 有遠見的、高瞻遠矚的；forward-planning 預先計畫

-protein 蛋白
-volumes 數量，此處指購買量
🌭 “It removes uncertainty or volatility,” Mr. DiFrisco said. Companies usually negotiate these contracts in February, with some staggering them throughout the year, he said.
迪佛里斯可指出，「如此可以消除不確定性和波動性。企業通常在每年2月份商議這些合約，有些企業則在一年之中交錯協調。」
-volatility 波動性
-stagger 錯開時間，意思同 spread over time

HOMECOMING是美國文化中最最重要的組成部分，尤其在中西部被認為最最美國的小城鎮裡。
Homecoming意思是「回老家聚會活動」，通常指一年一度的校友返校節。
美國的大中小學校都會在每年的秋天選一個週末做「返校日」 ( Homecoming Day)，招待校友返校，有選美，營火會（燒烤BBQ），舞會，彩車遊行等活動，是最熱鬧的一天。
這一天也是小城鎮中橄欖球比賽開始的日子，從此一個賽季開始了。球隊隊員和啦啦隊員都會很忙了。美國文化真的是從小學生就開始了。
