Even in the fanciest pizza restaurant, you will never feel weird if you ask for a box to take your leftovers (剩飯)home. In Italy, that will soon apply everywhere, with a new law that encourages restaurants to give people doggy bags, although in Italy it's called a "family bag."
The new law is designed to reduce food waste and open doors to companies wishing to donate wasted food. Family bags were made to avoid embarrassment at asking for leftovers, turning it from begging into good behavior.
In the U.S., taking uneaten food home is normal. In the U.K. it is fairly common. To the south, though, this practice is rare. In Spain and Italy, people might take the bones from their meat and give them to their dogs, but culturally, it's not the done thing. Also, there aren't often many leftovers, as dishes are sized according to how much people will actually eat and are rarely too big to finish unless you over-order.
In France, the laws are tougher. Last year, the French began to forbid supermarkets to throw away food. They must either give it away to charity, or make it available to be used as animal feed and compost(堆肥),If they fail to follow the law, they will be fined.
Perhaps Italy's new law is right. Food waste is now attracting international attention, but the only way to really stop it lies in whether individuals are willing to change their ways. If it becomes socially unacceptable to waste food, or to serve a huge portion in restaurants, then we have a chance.
1.What does the underlined word “weird” in paragraph 1 probably mean?
A. Difficult. B. Strange
C. Relaxed. D. Disappointed.
2.Why do the Spanish seldom take leftovers home from restaurants?
A. They don’t bother to do it.
B. It is their custom to eat food up.
C. It is not acceptable in their culture.
D. They usually order small portions.
3.According to the author, how can we reduce food waste?
A. By introducing stricter laws.
B. By donating food to the needy.
C. By restaurants only serving small portions.
D. By everyone taking action and saying no to it.
4.What’s the text mainly about?
A. Way of reducing food waste.
B. Italy’s plans to use family bags.
C. How doggy bags come into being.
D. The increasingly serious food waste.

A little before nine o’clock on Tuesday night, Antonio Gutierrez found himself facing a welcome dilemma. Might he, a waitress asked, have room for a second helping of pudding?
By day, the Robin Hood restaurant, which sits on a side street near the centre of Madrid, is a typical Spanish bar. But at night, it transforms itself into a pioneering place where homeless people, such as Antonio Gutiérrez, can dine, free of charge, at tables set with flowers and proper glasses.
The restaurant is the latest plan from the charity Mensajeros de la Paz, meaning messengers of peace, which
Was founded 54 years ago by Father Angel(安吉神父)García Rodriguez. “The inspiration came from Pope (教皇)Francis, who’s spoken again and again about the importance of giving people dignity, whether it’s through bread or through work,” said Father Angel. “So we thought, why not open a restaurant? People with nothing can come and eat here and get the same treatment as everyone else.”
Like many Spanish charities, Mensajeros de la Paz is still dealing with the human consequences of the country’s financial crisis, which has left the overall unemployment rate close to 20% and youth unemployment among Europe’s highest at 42%.
Each day, Father Angel’s nearby church provides 200 homeless people with breakfast and lunch. In the evening, the new restaurant feeds 100 homeless people. If the restaurant proves successful, the charity plans to extend the scheme and hopes it will attract famous chefs who will come to cook in the kitchen occasionally.
“The food here is tasty,” said Gutiérrez. “I’d give it lots of stars and I’ll be back tomorrow.” Gutiérrez had not eaten in such a restaurant for five years, except when Father Angel had taken him out.
1.Which of the following can best describe Father Angel?
A. Old and successful
B. Kind and respectable
C. Creative and gifted
D. Brave and determined
2.What can we know about the restaurant?
A. It was set up by Father Angel
B. It is in the center of Madrid
C. Its dishes are mainly cooked by famous chefs
D. It provides 100 homeless people with dinners every day
3.What does Gutiérrez think of the food in the restaurant?
A. Disgusting B. Cheap
C. Delicious D. Smelly
4.What’s the best title for the text?
A. A homeless person’s special experience
B. A pioneering Robin Hood restaurant for the homeless
C. A plan to reduce unemployment rate
D. Father Angel and his charity
