11. Online eating shows, or mukbang(吃播), originated in South Korea have gained popularity globally.
Many hosts of such shows have become popular for their ability to eat large amounts of food. But these shows have also received criticism for their waste of food. While some hosts actually do consume the amount of food shown, others may be faking it.
On 12 Aug, CCTV exposed several Chinese hosts who were pretending to eat large amounts of food while on camera, but actually later threw it away.
To discourage this practice, many video and live streaming platforms, including TikTok, Kuaishou and Bilibili, have removed videos that show food waste, and have promoted the message to "stop food waste and eat reasonably".
In June 2020, the United Nations warned that the world is on the verge of the worst food crisis in 50 years.
According to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, about a third of the world's food—1.3 billion tons—is wasted every year. In China alone, 50 million tons of food end up in landfills every year, according to Beijing News.
Recently, campaigns against food waste have been further promoted. In August, President Xi Jinping stressed the need for safeguarding food security and stopping food waste.
According to China Daily, restaurants and catering associations in more than18 provinces and all 4 municipalities have issued guidelines to control food waste.
In Shanxi Province, local restaurants have been asked to serve half-portions to avoid waste. The Wuhan Catering Association proposed that restaurants adopt the "N-1 mode". For example, a group of 10 diners should only order food enough for nine people first. More food is only brought to the table if required.
In addition, a nationwide "Clear Your Plate" campaign has been launched online. Users of Sina Weibo are encouraged to share photos or videos of empty plates after finishing their meals.
Meanwhile, new laws are also being considered, according to China Daily. "We will make new laws that give clear instructions to avoid food waste," said Zhang Guilong from the Constitution and Law Committee of the National People's Congress. The instructions will be detailed in annual food production, purchasing, storage, transport, processing and consumption, according to Zhang.

12. We all know that little excitement of creating a popular post on Facebook. Watching the number of "likes" can be both attractive and addictive.
That same buzz(兴奋感) can have its disadvantages, though. We all know the feeling of watching other people's posts get unending positive feedback. We tell ourselves that the only reason why these people are getting attention is that they're popular and good-looking. We sink into self-loathing(自我厌恶) and comparison. Therefore, after experimenting with hiding "likes" on Instagram in select countries, Facebook is considering doing the same on its main platform.
That Facebook is considering this is encouraging. After years of appearing to ignore criticism of its effects on society, the company finally seems to be listening. However, there is a basic conflict between Facebook's business model and its new-found altruism(利他主义). Relying on Facebook to look after its users' mental health is a bit like asking McDonald's to keep its customers' blood pressure under control: At some point, a company's need to make money is not in line with its supposed desire to do good.
The problem with "likes" is that they mark out how successful or happy others are, which in turn can promote a feeling of envy and insecurity. It's a real phenomenon. However, Facebook would certainly want you to post things that get more "likes". The company's success relies upon your posting more and encouraging more "engagement" with other people so that the value of Facebook's targeted ad business increases.
Facebook's reliance on engagement is deep-rooted, and it destroys a supposed desire to prevent the platform from encouraging envy. Without doubt, hiding "likes" can have some benefits, but the way Facebook is built means that this will always be a small step at best.
1.Why does Facebook try hiding "likes" on its main platform
A.To catch more users' eyes. B.To reduce people's envy.
C.To speed the operation of the platform. D.To encourage users to post positive things.
2.What can we infer from the comparison between Facebook and McDonald's
A.Facebook focuses more on the users' interests.
B.Facebook cares less about users' mental health.
C.Facebook makes a lot of money from the users.
D.Facebook does better than McDonald's in service.
3.What does more "engagement" mean to Facebook according to Paragraph 4
A.The growth of value. B.More users' needs.
C.The increases in desire. D.More users' security.
4.What is the author's attitude towards Facebook's hiding "likes"
A.Critical. B.Positive. C.Objective. D.Indifferent.
