Gao Wenqi, 49, owner of a restaurant in Xi’an, Shanxi, started to offer a new service on April 13, 2013: suspended meals (待用快餐). Now many restaurants in China, such as in Henan, Chongqing and Yunnan, have joined the programme.

You can pay 10 yuan for a meal, which should be sold at 16, and leave it at the restaurant. Then other people in need, such as the disabled, the poor elderly or homeless children, can have it without paying.

This idea comes from the cafes (咖啡館) in Naples, Italy. It’s a tradition that someone there

pays in advance for an extra (額外的) cup or two. Then another coffee-drinker can take them for free.

“The programme is meaningful. It offers help with dignity (尊嚴),” said Gao. However,

people are worried that someone who is able to pay would also ask for the suspended meals, so there should be rules for this programme.

1.According to the passage, this programme may possibly take place .

A. in a restaurant B. at a bus station C. in a school D. on a train

2.The suspended meals are offered to .

A. students B. children C. people in need D. the rich

3.The underlined phrase “in advance” in the third paragraph means “ ” in Chinese.

A. 滯后 B. 預先 C. 優(yōu)先 D. 勝過

4.It’s said that the idea of “suspended meals” comes from .

A. Italy B. the US C. Canada D. China

5.Which of the following is NOT true?

A. Someone who is unable to pay can ask for the suspended meals.

B. The programme is meaningful and it offers help with dignity.

C. Gao Wenqi’s restaurant joined the programme on April 13, 2013.

D. All customers must pay for an extra meal at the restaurant.
