解析:
According to the finding of a new UN report,the world wastes about one-sixth of the food each year. That’s about 1,030,000,000 tons,or 121 kilograms for each person on the Earth.
61% of the food waste is from home cooking. Food services,such as restaurants,produce 26% and groceries(食品杂货店)and other stores 13%.“We thought waste was a problem in rich countries,” says Martina Otto,who works for the UN Environment Program. “However,the new report finds,food waste is a big problem in nations rich and poor.”
Each year,some 690,000,000 people go hungry. At the same time,about 10% of all CO2 on the Earth is from the activities that produce the food waste. Control on food waste can help deal with hunger and cut down that pollution. It is helpful to both people and the planet. By avoiding wasting food,we can save money and time. More importantly,we can help protect the Earth’s most valuable resources(资源).
Then what can we do to stop food waste Small actions make a difference. Each of us can play a part. Next time,before you throw,think twice!

Many famous people studied here,such as Isaac Newton and Charles Darwin. There are lots of old buildings and churches to visit. Students and tourists enjoy trips along the river by boat.
Cambridge is 90 kilometres from London. London is in the south of England and it is on the River Thames. It has a population of about nine and a half million,so it is bigger and busier than Cambridge. It is about 2,000 years old,and it is famous for Big Ben,Buckingham Palace and Tower Bridge.
England itself is part of an island,and you are always near the sea. The small villages and beaches on the coast are popular for holidays. Tourists like the areas of low mountains and beautiful lakes in the north,and the hills and pretty villages in the south. Everywhere in England,you will notice how green the countryside is.
It is never very hot in summer or very cold in winter. So come and see England any time of the year,but bring an umbrella with you. It rains a lot all year round. You will need it most days.
