The message what the "Eat up All on Your...

The message what the "Eat up All on Your Plate" campaign tries to convey is not new. Our ancestors had poems about the importance of frugality (节俭) in the consumption of food. But it makes a lot of sense when many are yet to have the awareness that food waste borders on a crime.

The campaign has been started online and thousands of people have answered the call. Many restaurants have joined the program by announcing that customers are encouraged to order half a dish and take home what they can't finish.

However, it is estimated (估计) that 50 million tons of grain are wasted every year in China, enough to feed 200 million people for a year.

True, official banquets (宴席) paid with public money contribute much to such waste. But it is important that everyone thinks about how they can do their bit to reduce food waste. We need to develop the habit of never ordering or cooking more than we can eat and feeling guilty when we dump our leftovers.

Many people have a bad habit of entertaining guests with more than enough food, believing that they have not satisfied their guests' appetites if there is no food left on the table. In fact, to be a good host they order more than their guests can possibly eat and their guests eat more than they want out of politeness.

Such a mentality needs to change. People need to be made aware that it is impolite to force guests to eat more than they are comfortable with and it is insensible and uncivilized to waste food. Even if one is wealthy, ordering more than one can eat is a bad way to show off one's wealth.

1. The writer thinks the campaign "Eat up All on Your Plate" makes sense because______.

A. some people have some bad eating habits

B. some officials are wasting a lot of food

C. wasting food is still rather common in China

D. saving food is a traditional virtue of China

2.The writer shows how serious the problem of food waste is by_____.

A. Using examples

B. Offering figures

C. Comparing

D. Analyzing people’s attitude

【小题3The problem of food waste can be handled only when_______.

A. officials are forbidden to eat out with public money

B. more similar campaigns like this one have been started

C. restaurants don’t serve all the food people have ordered

D. everyone takes action to fight against food waste

 

1.C 2.B 3.D 【解析】 试题分析: 本文介绍了光盘行动,倡导节约粮食的良好行为。希望人们积极参加文明餐桌行动, 从生活习惯开始,从细微处做起,营造节俭用餐的良好风气。争做节约粮食的传播者、实践者和示范者,用实际行动参与到节约粮食的行动中来。 1.C推理判断题。根据第一段末句But it makes a lot of sense when many are yet to have the awareness that food waste borders on a crime.可知作者认为光盘行动有意义是由于还有很多中国人没有节俭意识,选C。 2.B细节理解题。根据第三段内容可知作者通过数字说明了浪费问题的严重性,选B。 3.D推理判断题。根据第四段But it is important that everyone thinks about how they can do their bit to reduce food waste.可知食物浪费问题只有人人行动起来才会得到有效解决,选D。 考点:考查社会生活类短文阅读

阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题纸上将该选项标号涂黑。

A friend of mine once told me a thing about his neighbor’s bunny(小兔子): One day he was sitting in the living room when his     dragged a little “gift” in its mouth--a     animal of some sort. Taking a closer look, he was nervous to     the dead animal to be a bunny that belonged to a little girl who lived next door. Her name was Bonny. My friend felt     , believing his cat had killed Bonny’s bunny.

My       friend came up with a plan. Removing from the cat’s mouth the dead animal, which by now was a dirty mess, he put it in the kitchen sink (水槽). With a little warm water, he tried to        up the dead bunny as best as he could. Then he took a hair dryer and blow-dried the bunny        it looked pretty good.

Finally, he took the dead bunny out to the neighbor’s bunny box and placed it back in the cage. He fluffed(抖松) him up so that he looked very     there in his little box.

The next morning, my friend looked out of the window and noticed a crowd of people     around the bunny box. Everyone seemed to be     and pointing. My friend decided to go over and act like any normal curious     and find out what was going on.

When he got there, Bonny’s mother said to my friend, “You won’t     what has happened! It’s a miracle! Bonny’s bunny passed away a few days ago, and we buried that little bunny right over there.”

Have you ever tried to cover up one     with another? Covering up only makes matters     . Just like Bonny’s bunny, the result is     what we expected. We end up looking foolish. We will be better off admitting we were wrong and accepting the consequences.

The person behind you constantly kicks the back of your seat.Your talkative seatmate doesn’t understand your need for sleep.And the aircraft’s bathroom is a total mess.These situations can make even a short flight unbearable.Hopefully you don’t cause these unpleasant experiences for others. 1.

Always recline(向后倾斜) your seat slowly.There’s nothing worse than suddenly being hit in the knees by the seat in front of you. In addition, don’t keep your seat reclined for the entire flight.Always keep it upright during mealtimes.And remember to put it in the upright position before going to the restroom(or anytime you leave your seat.)

2.  .Wait until the meal is done and all the food trays(盘子)have been collected. It’s hard for passengers to stand up to let you pass when they still have their food trays.And when using the bathroom, always clean up after yourself. The next user will be grateful !

Keep your body and your possessions to yourself as much as possible so as not to crowd your in-flight seatmate(s).Share the armrest , especially on a long flight. Also, be careful not to kick or push on the seat in front of you.

While some people enjoy chatting with other passengers during a flight, not everyone does.Some people may want to nap ,read or work. 3.

If you are traveling with someone and want to chat, keep your voices low. 4.  People can still hear through your headphones if the volume is too high.

When exiting the plane, if others are having trouble with their carry-on luggage, help them if you can. If you can’t help, wait patiently, and don’t push past people to get off the airplane. On your flight, remember the golden rule:  5.  .

A.Don’t leave your carry-on in the aircraft.

B.If the conversation seems one-sided , you should notice it.

C.Treat others the way you want to be treated!

D.Avoid going to the bathroom during mealtimes.

E.Instead ,you can set an example by following these common airplane courtesies(礼貌)

F.it is not polite to talk loudly in the aircraft.

G. If using electronic gadgets(小装置),keep the volume down.
