Question

 Qi Haoran, a Junior 1 student, was quite busy over the past winter vacation – and not just with homework. Qi, together with 10 other classmates made a volunteer group to call on people to join the Clean Your Plate Campaign (“光盘行动”).

    The 11 students went to many restaurants and told people the importance of saving food. “Excuse me, do you know that 950 million people around the world still haven’t got enough to eat? Please don’t waste food.” They would say this kind of thing hundreds of times every day.

   The Clean Your Plate Campaign began on the Internet in January. It calls on people to reduce food waste.

    China in these years had serious problems with wasted food. CCTV reported in January that the food Chinese people waste every year is enough to feed 200 million people for a year.

    Chinese people are well known for being hospitable (好客的) and generous（大方的）. Many even feel that they lose face if their guests have eaten all the food.

    Luckily, the campaign has got the support of many. In a restaurant in Xinjiang, the owner give the guests who have eaten all that they ordered a sticker (贴花). 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.

    To reduce food waste is a big task, and it needs time. It’s important that everyone does their bit, just like Qi. Did you finish your meals today?

Answer 1

【语篇解读】

本文为议论文，介绍了幸福的意思。有些人认为你拥有的东西的多少决定你是否幸福：房子、汽车、存款高薪的工作等。但是作者通过自己在非洲旅行的碰到的一些1穷人和在银行工作接触的一些富人进行对比，发现有钱的人不一定快乐，没钱的人也不一定不幸福。因此总结出来，你是否感到幸福与你拥有多少东西没有关系。

【答案解析】

71. house  下边一次列举的是使人感到舒服的一些物品，房子属于其中的一类。

72. traveled  在印度旅行，用travel，本句使用的是现在完成时态，用have+动词的过去分词。

73. smiling  在本句的下半部分可以找到smiling eyes意为“微笑的眼睛”，可以确定此处用smiling faces意为“微笑的脸”。

74. friendly  在本句中意为“友好的”，用形容词的形式。

75. money  有很多钱的人也不一定幸福。

76. are  本句为there be句型结构，people，为复数名词，系动词用复数形式。

77. look  look 意为“看起来；看上去”，后接形容词。

78. happiness  本句依旧在说影响幸福的因素。此处缺少名词“幸福”。

79. listening  听歌曲，“listening to music”，分词短语在本句中做伴随状语。也可以根据下半句的句式结构“you can feel happy watching a beautiful sunrise”来确定动词的ing形式。

80. all  本题考查词组not …at all，意为“一点也不；根本不”。
