    Each weekday, more than 30 million students in Canada eat meals in school cafeterias. And when lunch is over, they fill the rubbish cans with uneaten food.

    More than $1 billion worth of food is wasted every year. Wasted food is wasted money.It's also a missed chance to feed hungry people.And it's had for the environment:farming, packing, and transporting food produces greenhouse﹣gas emissions(温室气体排放). They pollute the air.

    Schools have developed ways to cut back on(减少) waste. Making lunch period longer helps. It gives kids time to eat everything on their plates. Many schools follow government rules that say students must take a certain number of healthy things at mealtime. Those rules help kids get a better meal. But they can lead to more waste. That's why schools in Canada set up something called share tables.Students put untouched food on the table. A student who wants the food can take it. There are rules to make sure the food is safe. Food that isn't taken from the table is served another day.

    Students also waste food because they don't like how it tastes. Cook Sam wants to change that. He works with a program called Cooks in Schools. He helps dining hall workers develop dishes kids enjoy.

    You can fight food waste too. At the store, look for "ugly" produce.Fruits and vegetables with bad shapes are still delicious, but they are often not noticed. At home, read safety labels(标签). If a label says "best before", the food is still safe to eat for a little while after the date. If the label says "use by", the food is no longer safe after the date.

(1)What does the underlined word "cafeterias" mean?  

A. Dining halls

B. Classrooms

C. Hallways

(2)What is NOT the result of wasting food?  

A. Wasting money

B. Bad for the environment

C. Feeding hungry people

(3)How do schools in Canada cut back on waste?

(4)Why do students waste food according to Paragraph 4?  

A. They don't like Cook Sam.

B. They don't like the dishes.

C. They don't like dining hall workers.

(5)According to the last paragraph, which food is NOT safe on June 18th, 2019?

In today's world, almost everyone knows that air pollution and water pollution are harmful to people's health. However, not all the people know that noise is also a kind of pollution, and that is harmful to human health, too.

     People who work and live under noisy conditions usually become deaf. Today, scientists believe that 10% of the workers in Britain are becoming deaf because of the noise where they work. Many of the workers who print newspapers and who weave cloth(织布)become deaf. Plenty of people living near airports also become deaf. Recently it was discovered that many teenagers in America could hear no better than 65﹣year﹣old persons, because these young people like to listen to pop music and most of pop music is a kind of noise. Besides, noise which is produced by jet planes or machines will make people's life difficult and unpleasant. It can make people ill or even drive them mad.

     It is said that a continuous noise of more than 85 decibels(分贝)can cause deafness. Now the governments in many countries have made laws to control noise and make it less than 85 decibels.

You don' t have to be a scientist to solve big environmental problems. One Dutch designer is finding creative ways to make a change﹣and he's inviting bikers to join him.

    Daan Roosgaarde, 38, is a designer from Holland. He uses creative ideas to improve city life. For his Smog (雾霾) Free Project, he designed a special tower that cleans air in Chinese parks. In Holland, he designed a shining bicycle path.

    Now Daan and his team are working with engineers at Chinese bike﹣sharing company Ofo to create a new product for public use. It's an air﹣cleaning machine connected to a bicycle and is part of the Smog Free Project.

    It's no secret that air pollution is a big problem for China. In winter, it's common for thick clouds of haze (霾), caused largely by factory production, burning of coal and car emissions (排放物), to cover areas of China.

    In 2016, only one﹣fourth of Chinese cities met the country's air quality standards, according to a survey of 338 cities nationwide from the Ministry of Environmental Protection.
