A

As I stood in the return line and watched people,I became extremely impatient.My daughter had got four Barbie dolls and two identical Cabbage Patch Kids on Christmas,so I was eager to return toys that she didn’t need.Suddenly a strong idea came to me.I eyed the lady in front of me with three small girls on her leg.The family looked poor.The children were without coats,and they had dirty faces and hair.“You are ready to get out of here,aren’t you? Give her the things you want to return,” the still voice spoke.“Give them to her? These are mine.I’m not giving her my stuff,” I argued.I swallowed the urge that threatened to escape my lips when the voice spoke again.“Give her the toys.” I was familiar with the voice .I know I couldn’t argue with that voice.

I sighed and tapped the lady on the shoulder.“Ma’am,” I cleared my throat.She looked at me with kind,tired eyes surrounded by wrinkles.“Yes?” she asked.“Would your little girls like to have these toys?” I pointed to my basket full of returns.“Would your children like to have them?” She was speechless,and I swore that tears were about to well up in her eyes.“You’d be doing me a favor.I can’t stand in this line in a moment longer.” “You have no idea,” she shook her head.“You have no idea what that means to me.”

I started loading her basket as the excited girls watched.“Merry Christmas,” I said,“God bless you.” She replied as I nodded and exited the line.I didn’t want to go the Walmart that day,but I went.I didn’t want to give the lady my kid’s toys,but I did.Sometimes doing what we don’t want to do is exactly what we’re supposed to do.

Cleaning your plate may not help feed hungry children today,but the timeworn advice of mothers everywhere may help reduce food waste from the farm to the fork,help the environment and make it easier to feed the world’s growing population. Hard data still being collected,but experts in Chicago said about 30% to 50% of the food produced in the world goes uneaten.The average American throws away 33 pounds of food each month-about $40 worth,which means each person throws away almost 400 pounds of food.The US Department of Agriculture says that 23% of eggs and an even higher percentage of produce ends up in the trash.

“We forget we have all these fresh fruits and vegetables,and at the end of the week we have to throw them away”,said Esther Gove,a mother of three young children in South Berwick,Maine.“Now,I don’t buy as much fresh produce as I used to.”

But the effect of food waste arrives far beyond the kitchen.Agriculture is the world’s largest user of water,a big consumer of energy and major emitter of greenhouse gases during production.Experts say reducing waste is a simple way to cut stress on the environment and can ease pressure on farmers,who will be called on to feed an expected 9 billion people around the world in 2050,compared with nearly 7 billion today.

No matter how sustainable (可持续的) farming is,if the food’s not getting eaten,it’s not sustainable and it’s not a good use of our resources.In richer nations,fruit and vegetables end up in the trash because they aren’t pretty enough to meet companies’ standards,have gone bad in a home refrigerator or aren’t eaten at a restaurant.In developing countries,much food spoils before it gets to market due to poor roads and lack of refrigeration.High food prices are another reason,since some people can’t afford the food that’s produced.

28.From the first paragraph,we know that cleaning your plate__________. A.is you mother’s best advice for you

B.can solve certain problems for the world

C.can help feed hungry children all over the world D.helps meet the growing population’s needs

29.The underlined word “emitter” in Paragraph 4 means________.

A.user B.finder C.protector D.producer 30.What is a sustainable and convenient way for a customer in a restaurant? A.Ordering enough and packing the leftovers. B.Ordering more than he or she can eat.

C.Ordering less and feeling hungry after leaving. D.Ordering more and leaving the untouched alone. 31.Which of the following topics will follow the text?

A.More examples of food waste. B.Ways to reduce food waste.

C.Experts’ idea on the environment. D.Advice for food with high prices.

D

After a year of examining many studies concerning whether homework is effective,NYC P.S.Elementary School decided that math worksheets and essay assignments were actually a waste of time.In February,Principal Jane Hsu sent a letter to parents stating that the Pre-K（学前班）through fifth grade students wouldn’t be give any traditional homework to encourage kids to free time for reading,playing outside,or doing activities they enjoy.

“The negative effects of homework have been well established.” Hsu wrote in a note to parents.“They include,children’s frustration and exhaustion,lack of time for other activities and family time and,sadly for many,loss of interest in learning.”

Some parents,however,disagree with the policy change,believing that a lack of focus will cause children to fall behind.Homework has been part of education from the beginning,and has increased in amount in recent years.

Hsu’s advice that children should read and spend time with their families has upset some parents to the point of considering pulling their children out of the school.This group feels that homework gives children a goal to work toward.Others feel so strongly about the importance of homework that have they have begun giving their own homework to their children.

An Australian Childhood Foundation survey finds that 71% of Australian parents feel they don’t spend enough quality time with their children mainly because of the time spent running the household or the time spent helping with homework Education experts in Australia are saying that parents should stop helping.Doing so will give kids more independence,give parents more free time,and help reduce the number of arguments caused by homework in the family.

While some research suggests that homework has little academic benefit for elementary students,other researches show homework can help kids develop independence,and confidence.It can also contribute to a sense of belonging or control over their lives.When parents try to help their children with homework,the assistance can take away that feeling and can also make working parents more tired. 32.Cancelling traditional homework is aimed at________. A.allowing students to learn on their own. B.wising students to spend more time with parents C.inspiring students to seek self-development. D.motivating students to help with homework

33.What can be concluded from the 1st and 2nd paragraph? A.Jane Hsu is the first principal to cancel homework.

B.Jane Hsu has done much research on different aspects of homework. C.Jane Hsu pays little attention to students’ academic records. D.Jane Hsu knows students prefer activities to their subjects. 34.Why are some parents strongly against Principal Jane Hsu? A.They are afraid their kids will fall behind.

B.They dislike their kids doing too many activities. C.They have no time to give their children homework. D.They don’t think the school is responsible for their kids.

35.What is the author’s attitude to parents’ helping kids with homework?
