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 program, News One Plus One, reported that 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 Program, 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 generous (慷慨的). Many even feel that they lose face if their guests have eaten all the food on the table.
Luckily, 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 (剩余的) 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 tips:
◆Do not order too much in a restaurant. Only order what you want to eat. If you cannot eat all the food you ordered, take the rest of it home.
◆Don’t be too picky (挑剔的) about food. Some food may not taste great. But your body needs it.
◆Keep an eye on what food you have at home. Don’t buy too much, especially for vegetables and fruit.

A. save enough food to feed 200 million people for a year B. throw away lots of food every year

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

A. all Chinese people are generous B. Chinese people always waste food

Peter was a middle school student. He hated doing chores. But he had to do many chores. For example, on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays he took out the rubbish.

Help with Some Housework
It is reported that children who love doing chores have a better future and are easy to feel happy. As for me, I usually sweep the floor, take out the rubbish, wash my clothes and do the dishes at home. When I am free, I’d like to water the flowers and cook some easy meals for my family. It’s interesting to cook food.
However, different people have different opinions about that. Some people say that there is no need to do housework. They think it’s a waste of time. In my opinion, it’s quite important for children to do some housework. Firstly, it can develop their independence. Children these days depend on their parents too much. If they learn to do housework, they can take care of themselves when they get older in the future. Secondly, it’s not just parents’ job to provide a clean and comfortable environment. Everyone should play a part in doing housework. The earlier they learn to be independent, the better it is for their future.
