Food waste has become a big problem in China.According to Xinhua News Agency, the food waste by Chinese people equates to about 50 million tons of grain every year or 10 percent of the country’s total annual grain production.This food could feed another 200 million people.
Qi Haoran, a Junion9 student was quite busy over the past winter holiday, and not just with homework.Qi, together with 10 other classmates made a volunteer group to call on people to join the Clean Your Plate Campaign(“光盤行動(dòng)).
The 11 students went to many restaurants and told people the importance of saving food.“Excuse me, do you know that 950 million people around the world still haven’t got enough to eat.Please don’t waste food.” They would say this kind of thing hundreds of times every day.
The Clean Your Plant Campaign began on the Internet in January.It calls on people to reduce food waste.
Chinese people are well known for being hospitable(好客的)and generous.Many even feel that they lose face if their guests have eaten all the food.
Luckily, the campaign has got the support of many people.More than 750 restaurants in Beijing have begun to offer smaller dishes and encourage their guests to take leftovers(剩飯剩菜)home.In a restaurant in Xinjiang, the owner give the guests who have eaten all that they ordered a sticker.People can enjoy a free meal when they have 10 stickers.

小題1:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文第二段Qi, together with 10 other classmates made a volunteer group to call on people to join the Clean Your Plate Campaign及第四段It calls on people to reduce food waste可知,這一活動(dòng)的主要目的就是號召人們減少食物的浪費(fèi);故選C。
小題2:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文第五段Many even feel that they lose face if their guests have eaten all the food.可知中國人比較好客,怕客人吃不好丟面子,所以這是食物浪費(fèi)的原因之一;故選D。

Have you ever wondered what an American high school is really like? This article will describe a typical (典型的) high school and its students.
A typical American high school has several large buildings and enough space for about 1,500 students. Every student is given a locker. When students first arrive at school, they go straight to their lockers to put away or get their textbooks and to hang up their outdoor clothes. As American textbooks are expensive, students would rather loan(租借) than buy them. Students must pay back if they lost any of them.
American students have different types of school transport. They usually take a yellow school bus or walk to school if they live close enough. Sometimes their parents drive them to school. When they turn 16 years of age, most take a free driving class at school for one term. If students earn passing grades in the class and also pass their state driver’s exam, they can begin driving themselves to school.
Each day, students take six or seven classes. They must take science, math, English and social studies. They can choose art, homemaking, fashion design and other classes. In some schools students are required to take one or more of the following special classes: health education, physical education or foreign language studies. Students move to different classrooms for each subject. This is because each teacher has their own classroom. There is a five-minute break between classes, to give the students the time to hurry to their next class.
The regular school day usually ends early in the afternoon. After school more than half of the students are involved in after-school activities. These activities include sports-especially football, basketball, baseball and soccer or clubs, such as yearbook, speech, school newspaper, photograph or student government.
