Almost every Chinese person can recite(背誦) the two lines of the famous poem, “Every grain on the plate comes from hard work ”. But sadly, many of us don’t actually get the real meaning of these lines: Don’t waste food.

A CCTV program reported that the food Chinese people throw away every year is enough to feed 200 million people for a year. Do we have too much food? Absolutely not. According to the UN World Food Program, there were 925 million hungry people around the world in 2011, especially in developing countries. Six million children die of hunger every year.

Chinese people are well-known for being friendly and generous. 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. What should we do in our daily lives to waste less food?

1.Don’t order too much in a restaurant. Only order as much as you want to eat. If you cannot eat all the food you ordered, take the rest of it home.

2.Don’t leave any food in your bowls while having meals.

3.Keep an eye on what food you have at home. Don’t buy too much, especially for vegetables and fruit.

William Blake described the eyes as the “windows of the soul.” Our eyes are the windows through which we see the world around us. Either way, there’s no question that we place great value on our eyes and our eyesight. Surveys have shown that of the five senses, sight is the one that people fear losing the most.

Thinking about the important function of our eyes, we’d give them the best care possible, but sometimes we get too busy or forget to do a few simple things that can keep our eyes healthy.

Protecting your eyes starts with the food on your plate. Remember when you were a kid and your mom told you that carrots would improve your eyesight. Well, she might be right. Proper food will keep your eyes strong and healthy.

Give up your daily habits that could seriously injure your eyes. Always wear sunglasses in a sunny day to protect your eyes from ultraviolet ray(紫外線). Rest your eyes every 20 minutes from the computer screen by looking 20 feet away for 20 seconds. At least every 2 hours, get up and take a 15-minute break when working at a computer.

Make sure your eyes do not get injured in the first place. You should try to prevent eye injuries whether you’re playing sports or doing housework. You should also know when to wear safety glasses and what kinds will work best for you.

Last but not least, get your eyes examined regularly. Eye exams can help find some eye diseases. It’s important to find these diseases early on, when they’re easier to treat.

1.According to a survey, people fear losing ________ most.

A.their sights B.their hearings C.their smells D.their tastes

2.The underlined word function might mean “________ ” in Chinese.

A.差異 B.功能 C.優(yōu)勢(shì) D.問(wèn)題

What does it mean to be a Chinese? According to a survey more than 40% of Chinese people believe the Chinese love the country and their families. About one-third of foreign people describe the Chinese as hard-working and creative people.

From 1931 to 1945, millions of soldiers lost their lives in the war against Japanese aggression. After 1949, plenty of people worked day and night for the development of China.

While the love of the country joins the people together, family plays a big role in traditional Chinese culture. Aaron Cedillo, an English teacher in Beijing, said, “My Chinese friends get married and have babies when they turn a certain age. 他們選擇或者放棄一份工作時(shí),首先考慮的是家人。

Besides, the characters of being hard-working and creative also come to light. Sheryl, a Malaysian student at Zhejiang University, said Chinese people were hard-working when she saw some men send the package. She said, “It seems that those men never need to rest.” A foreign university professor also said“讓我感到驚訝的是,實(shí)驗(yàn)室里的中國(guó)學(xué)生總是能想出新點(diǎn)子。

The past70 years saw China’s rapid rise to become an important country in the world. During the process, the international community, including Chinese people themselves, has got a clearer understanding of Chinese traits (品質(zhì)).
