三、阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）

A

    It was the Greek shopkeeper who taught me about the power of being kind.

    In 2008 I left Spain to study alone in London. My parents had to bring up my three younger sisters and two younger brothers, so I found three part-time jobs to pay for my studies. I worked early mornings and late nights, so I was tired, really tired, all the time.

    Unfortunately, I got a cold and had a very high fever. Because I had spent all my free time working since I came to London. I hardly took part in any activities and I had no friends. Besides, I was too shy to communicate with others and ask others for help. After sleeping on the sickbed for two days, I went out to get some food. Normally, I went to the supermarket, but this time I went into the Greek shop, a small corner shop, because it was closer.

    I picked up some food and gave it to the shopkeeper, who asked me, 'You look terrible, my boy! You are not feeling well, right?'

    I said 'Yes' in a low voice.

    She pointed at the salami(腊肠) and bread I was buying and offered, 'I can make you a sandwich, so you don't have to do it yourself. '

    I nodded without saying a word.

    So, she made the sandwich and asked me to wait a moment. She went into the back room and came again with a bowl of hot soup.

    'It will warm you up, ' she said with a friendly smile.

    What really warmed me up was not the soup. It was her smile that told me she cared me. Her kindness reminded me of my mother.

    I had been quite shy, but from that day on, I did not let shyness prevent me from communicating with and being kind to others. Now I work in a children's hospital in Africa. I love my work and people around me. I always bring my smile and kindness to them.

    Almost every Chinese person can recite the two lines of the famous poem, 'Every grain on the plate comes from hard work(谁知盘中餐, 粒粒皆辛苦).' But sadly, many of us don't actually get the real meaning of these lines: Don't waste food.

    A CCTV program, News One Plus One, reported that the food Chinese people throw away every year is enough to feed 200 million people for a year.

    Do we have too much food? Of course not. According to the UN World Food Program, there were 925 million hungry people around the world in 2010, especially in developing countries. Six million children die of hunger every year.

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

    Luckily, a number of people have realized the importance of saving food. Last November, Li Hong, a waitress in a restaurant in Nanjing, got fired because she took some leftover food home for her son  Many people stood by her side and criticized(批评) the waste of food.

    What should we do in our daily lives to waste less food? Here are some tips:

    ・Do not order too much in a restaurant. Only order as much as you want to eat. If you cannot eat all the food you ordered, take the rest of it home.

    ・Don't be too picky(挑剔的) about food. Some food may not taste great, but your body needs it.

    ・Keep an eye on what food you have at home. Don't buy too much, especially for vegetables and fruit.
