5．The"Clean Your Plate"campaign was started by nongovernmental organizations and activists，which urged people to save food by not wasting anything on the dining table．The campaign，launched on Weibo，was soon joined by millions of netizens across China to fight against food waste．
The estimated annual waste of grain in China reaches 50million tons，enough to feed about 200million people for a year．
People from across China support the campaign．The Central Government has promised to take measures to reduce food waste，take the lead in saving food and follow a simple working style．
More and more Chinese are saying"No"to food waste．Staff members of a restaurant set off a campaign encouraging customers to stop food waste in Qingdao，Shandong province，Jan.24．"Did you empty the dishes today？"has become the most popular question in China．Showing an empty dish also turns a new fashion among Chinese netizens．
In some restaurants there are signs reminding the diners not to waste food．Some even offer awards to the customers who eat all their food，as part of the campaign to reduce waste．More and more restaurants kindly remind and encourage customers to take their leftovers away．

When some people started the"Clean Your Plate"campaign in an effort to reduce food waste，millions of netizens joined it and more and more people are taking real action to prevent food waste．
I'm quite delighted by this campaign．As far as I know，while people in advanced countries don't have to worry about their meals，millions of people in some poor areas are suffering from hunger every day．Though most Chinese have enough food to eat，there are still some others who are struggling hard for a little food to fill their stomach．Unfortunately，I can always see people leave a large part of their food on their plate and throw it as waste．It is reported that every year the Chinese altogether waste 50 million tons of food，which is enough to feed 200 million people for a whole year．What an alarming waste it is!We should feel guilty to waste so much food．
It is high time for us to stop such waste．There is every reason for us to clean our plates at our meals．If all people take action to cut down food waste，a large quantity of food can be saved and more people will be fed．
The"Clean Your Plate"campaign is really good and useful．Let's join in and eat up our meals instead of wasting any food．．

4．Social Practice
Social practice has been more and more popular in schools．Senior school students are asked to enter society and get some ideas of it．Surely，social practice has many advantages．Firstly，social practice can offer students a chance to contact society and meet different kinds of people．In this way students can gain some precious social experience，which will be useful to their future career．Secondly，students can apply what they have learned in class to practical work，thus knowing themselves more clearly．Thirdly，social practice can bring them some financial reward and make them more independent of their family．
However，some problems may arise if no correct guidance is made．For example，some students get overly interested in social practice and want to work full-time and earn more money，thus neglecting their studies．And some students are likely to get in touch with the dark side of society，which will affect their future studies．
In order to carry out social practice smoothly，students should first know its objective．They should put their studies in the first place and see social practice just as a useful supplement，so they ought to try to strike a balance between social practice and their studies．
[写作内容]
1）请以约30个词概括上文的内容；
2）请以约120个词谈谈你对"社会实践"的看法，包括如下要点：
①你对于社会实践的认识；
②你或你朋友所经历过的一次社会实践；
③你认为如何协调好学习与社会实践的关系．
[写作要求]
1）可以用事例或者其他论述方法支持你的观点，也可以参照阅读材料的内容，但不能直接引用原文句子；
2）作文中不能出现真实的姓名和学校名称．
[评分标准]
概括准确，语言规范，内容合适，篇章连贯．The passage states the benefits and the worry of social practice for senior school students：it enriches students'social experience and rewards them with money，but it may affect their studies and values．So，students should balance their studies and social practice．
Knowledge is a treasure，but practice is the key to it．Nowadays，more students have opportunities to join in various social activities，including military training，voluntary work in a community service，a part-time job in a super-market，etc．They learn how to serve，how to cooperate and how to solve problems．Gradually they will become strong-willed，kind-hearted and enthusiastic in study and life．
Two years ago，I organized a team of classmates to a Charity House where orphans and the disabled live．There we told stories to the blind，we drew beautiful pictures for the deaf，we helped friends in the wheelchair go around．It was the visit that made me realize that helping others should not be only an empty talk and that life is worth cherishing．
Of course，we must strike a balance between study and social practice，never allowing social activities take priority over schoolwork．After all，senior school stage is a vital period for students obtain knowledge and get prepared for their future．Therefore，I strongly suggest that we make full use of our spare time and holiday to participate I that．Only in this way can we refuse to shut ourselves in the campus!．
