    Food waste has become a big problem in China.
    Zhou Jinsong, a canteen(食堂) manager at Central South University, said that students produce over 12 barrels(桶) of leftovers every day — each barrel stands at one meter in height. Zhou’s canteen is just one of several on the campus.
    According to Xinhua News Agency, the food wasted by Chinese people equates to about 50 million tons of grain every year, or 10 percent of the country’s total annual grain production. This food could feed another 200 million people. What students waste every year could feed over 10 million people. Students nowadays are well protected by their families and hardly know how hard farmers work to provide them with the food they eat.
    “Since the 1980s, when Chinese gradually became richer, food waste has been a subject of debate. But things have hardly changed over the years,” said Yu Changjiang, a sociologist at Peking University. “It’s the Chinese way of showing respect to friends, often referred as Mianzi.”
    But rather than tradition, huge public spending on government banquets(宴会) is also causing food waste, said Zhou Xiaozheng from the sociology department at Renmin University of China. “It’s the result of widespread reception meals at government levels. It is also important that everyone thinks about how they can do their best to reduce food waste.”
    【小题1】Which of the following statements is not the reasons for food waste?

    A．Students hardly know farmers’ hard work on the farm.
    B．The government spends a large amount of money on government banquets.
    C．Leaving some food after a banquet is the Chinese way to show respect to guests.
    D．The food in the college canteen is not delicious.
    【小题2】Where can we probably read this passage?
    A．In a newspaper.B．In a traffic report.
    C．On a health website.D．In a story book.


    【小题1】D
    【小题2】A

    解析试题分析：这篇短文主要讨论了中国大学中的食物浪费问题。
    【小题1】根据短文后两段描述，可知大学的食物不好吃不是浪费的原因，故选D。
    【小题2】这篇短文主要讨论的是中国大学中的浪费食物现象，最有可能出自一篇报纸，故选A。

People can enjoy a free meal when they have 10 stickers. More than 750 restaurants in Beijing have begun to offer smaller dishes and encourage their guests to take leftovers (剩饭剩菜) home.

It’s a tradition that Chinese people offer lots of food when they invite others to dinner. Many even feel that they will lose face if their guests have eaten all their food.

    At East China University of Science and Technology, students will get a coupon (优惠券) if they eat up their food.

    Students can collect coupons and exchange them for small gifts, such as books, magazines, mobile phone covers and hand warmers.

         "It's been such a surprise," said Liang Zhaoyun, 19, a student at the university in Shanghai. "It has given us one more motivation to finish our food. "

         The measure is part of a national "eat-up" campaign(行动) which is organized by students to deal with food waste on campuses(校园).

        Why only on campuses, you might ask? Because according to a report by Xinhna News Agency, students waste twice as much food as the national average(平均).

         The campaign on campus food waste is receiving attention across the country.

         "The aim of the campaign is not only to encourage students to finish their food. We hope it can also encourage students to choose a more environment-friendly and healthy lifestyle," said Tao Siliang, secretary of the Youth League Committee at Shanghai University.

          But some school food is poorly prepared, so students do not like to finish it all. Some schools have taken notice of this and they are taking measures to improve it.

          "I'm glad that we've reduced food waste since the 'eat-up' campaign began. But if we call on students to waste less food, we should also improve the service and food standard on campuses." said Tao.

    1.From Paragraph l, we know that the students will get a coupon         .

    A. when they eat school food        B. after they exchange gifts

    C. if they finish all their food        D. if they collect the waste

    2.The underlined word "motivation" in Paragraph 2 means in Chinese.

    A. 动力      B. 机会     C. 试验       D. 条件

    3.The purpose of the campaign is mainly to ________ .

    A. improve the school food standard      

    B. encourage a greener and healthier lifestyle

    C. receive attention from the society     

    D. further improve the service in universities
