Qi Haoran, a Junior One student at High School was quite busy over the last winter vacation, not just with homework. Qi, together with ten other classmates made a       group to call on people to join the Clean Your Plate Campaign(光盘行动).
The       students went to many restaurants and told the people the importance of       food. “ Excuse me, do you know that 950 million people around the world still haven’t got enough to       ? Could you please not       food? ” They would say this kind of thing hundreds of times every day.
    ，the activity has got the support of many people. In a restaurant in Xinjing, the owner gives the guests who have eaten all the food they ordered a ticket. People can enjoy a       meal
when they have ten tickets. More than 750 restaurants in Beijng have begun to offer       dishes and encourage their guests to take leftovers(剩菜) home.
Wasting food is a serious problem around the      , not only in China. It’s said that 1.3 billion tons of food ends up as waste last year. This is as       as one third of all the food in the world. The UN Environment Program and the Food and Agriculture Organization held a “ Think, Eat, Save” program in January, 2013 to help reduce food waste.

Text messaging, or "texting", which allows people to send and receive messages on mobile phones, becomes very popular today.
The advantages of texting are obvious. Texting helps to save money. If you have a few words to greet your families and friends on their birthdays or on some important festivals, sending messages can be cheaper than phone calling. Texting helps to save time. Even if you want to send a message to 100 people, you can do it in one second. Texting helps you to "talk" to someone when he is too busy to answer the phone. Texting can also help you to "talk" to someone secretly if you don't want others to hear what you are talking on the phone. These advantages are so amazing that many people are crazy about it. They hold mobile phones in hands all day long, send dozens of messages each day, and even text while driving or walking. However, texting has its disadvantage. Junk messages may come into your mobile phone box now and then. When your phone box gets too full, you can't receive any more messages. You may therefore miss some important information.
What's more, if you don't do texting properly, for example, texting while driving or walking, it can be dangerous. It can cause injuries and even death. It was reported that about 6,000 people were killed and half a million were injured for this reason each year. In Fort Lee, a small town in New Jersey, USA, three people died because they walked into traffic while texting in 2013. Two researchers at Stony Brook University, New York found that texters are 60% more probably to have an accident than others. When people are texting, they don't notice other people or things around them. To reduce traffic accidents, all drivers of the UN are now not allowed to text while driving. About 32 countries have passed laws restricting(限制) the use of mobile phones while driving.
Texting is a wonderful way of communication. However, only when we use it properly, can we fully enjoy the fun it brings.
