Almost every Chinese person can recite the two lines of the famous poem, “Every grain on the plate comes from hard work （谁知盘中餐，粒粒皆辛苦）. ” But sadly, many of us don’t actually get the real meaning of these lines: Don’t waste food.

A CCTV programme, News One Plus One, reported that the food Chinese people throw away every year is enough to feed 200 million people for a year.

Do we have too much food? No, according to the UN World Food Programme, there were 925 million hungry people around the world in 2010, especially in developing countries. Six million children die of hunger every year.

Chinese people are well known for being hospitable （好客的）and generous（慷慨的）. Many even feel that they lose face if their guests have eaten all the food on the table.

Fortunately, a number of people have realized the importance of saving food. Last November, Li Hong, a waitress in a restaurant in Nanjing, got fired （开除）because she took some leftover food home for her son. Many people stood by her side and agreed that it was not right to waste food.

What should we do in our daily life to waste less food? Here are some advice:

a. Do not order （点）too much in a restaurant. Only order as much as what you want to eat. If you cannot eat all the food you ordered, take the rest of it home.

b. Don’t be too picky（挑剔的）about food. Some food may not taste great, but your body needs it.

c. Keep an eye on what food you have at home. Don’t buy too much, especially for vegetables and fruit.

d. Don’t leave any food in your bowls while you finish having meals.

54．According to News One Plus One, Chinese people ________.

A．save enough food to feed 200 million people for a year

B．throw away lots of food every year

C．get enough food to feed millions of people every year

D．have to feed 200 million hungry people every year

55．From the third paragraph, we know that ________.

A．we have too much food to feed people in the world

B．there were 925 million people in developing countries

C．because of hunger, six million children die every year

D．there are only a few people getting hungry every year

56．What’s the meaning of the underlined word “leftover” in Chinese?

A．美味的 B．吃剩的 C．遗留的 D．不受人喜欢的

57．What should we do to save food in our daily life?

A．We should order much food in a restaurant to show we9re hospitable and generous.

B．Eat some food that your body needs although it doesn’t taste great.

C．We should not eat vegetables and fruit.

D．We should only keep an eye on the food we like.

58．What’s the best title of the passage?

A．Eat all the food you order.

A．回答问题。

请阅读下面这篇文章，根据所提供的信息，回答后面的问题。

I started my school life at the age of six. At first the school for me—a boy, meant play, play and more play instead of sitting in the classroom and learning something. However, I changed the way I used to behave at school with the help of my teachers. I tried my best to do well in my schoolwork and follow the school rules.

Growing and learning were great fun. Every year we had different kinds of school trips. Not only could we learn many things from them, but also we were given many projects as homework. It helped us know more. At the same time, we made many good friends. In Grade 7, I won prizes in drawing and English speech competitions. When I was in Grade 8, I realized that 1 should give more attention to studying to get a better grade. That will make my parents and teachers happier.

Whenever I think of my school life, I feel very happy and I think in everybody’s school life there are many ups and downs that influence (影响) his life. School is a place where all of us learn to care and share. “School” is not just a place, but a large building made up of rules, knowledge and love. I think in everybody’s success, school plays a key role. I can describe my school in “Three Ss”. They are: Small, Sweet and Simple.

I think my school was the best and will always be the best.

                                          How to Make Our Spare Time More Meaningful?

Nowadays, we students have much more spare time than ever before, but how to make our spare time more meaningful? Here are my suggestions.

First, we can help our parents do some housework. It can show our love to them. Second, we should do some more reading. Reading can help us open up our eyes and know more about the world. Third, it is a good chance for us to go for a trip and get close to nature. That can relax ourselves.

In my opinion, we can do some sports. Doing sports can make us stronger and healthier. What’s more, we can take an active part in some social activities as volunteers to help those people in need. In a word, let’s make full use of our spare time and enhance our quality.
