[正] The flood victims got a lot of food and shelter.
[注]名词foot作“食品”、“食物”解时，习惯上用单数形式，又如：The government has handed out 82,500 tons of food to 3.5 million farmers in flood-striken areas. 政府已经向 3,500,000 遭受水灾的农民发放了 82,500 吨食品。如果强调各类食 品时，亦可用复数形式，如：He wrote out a list of all the foods which were forbidden. 他开列了一张忌口食物的清单。
