　　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? No．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 generous (慷慨的)．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 (开除) because she took some leftover (剩余的) food home for her son．Many people stood by her side and agreed that it was not right to waste food．

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

　　1．Do not order(点菜) too much in a restaurant．Only order what you want to eat．If you cannot eat all the food you ordered,take the rest of it home．

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

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

　　Years ago I worked at a factory in a small county．Every day I got up very early and often did much extra work at night．I was so tired and exhausted．My whole life was hopeless．Then one day I read the following article from a magazine：

　　"A woman went to live with her husband in camp on the Mojave Desert(沙漠)during the war．She simply hated the place：the heat was almost un-bearable, 125 degrees in the shade, the wind blew incessantly, and there was sand-sand everywhere．Finally, in desperation(不顾一切地)she wrote her parents in Ohio that she couldn't stand it another minute and was coming home．

　　Quickly came the reply by airmail from her father-just two lines：

　　'Two men looked out from prison bars．One saw the mud, the other saw stars．'

　　The daughter did some real thinking, not only with the intellect(思维)but also with her heart．She decided to stick to her post．

　　She made friends with the natives, learned to love the country, and eventually wrote a book about it．

　　The desert hadn't changed, but her attitude had．Because she listened with her heart to the words her father sent, a whole new world opened up to her．"

　　A change of attitude could change everything．

　　After reading the article, I was deep in thought(陷入沉思)…
