It is well known that everyone has his own dream as well as his own future. But do you know future really is? I have to say that future is time. That is to say we must save every now. If we want to have a bright future, we should know important time is and use it well.

There is an old English saying, “Gain time, gain life.”Then what’s time? Time is that we can’t see or touch, but we can feel it by. Time is with us. When we are at table, time passes; when we play, time passes too. We always say “Time is money”, but time is even than money, because when money , we can earn it back. But if time is gone away, it will never return. So, some of us even say time is .

We should always remember: Future is now. For us students, we should our best to work hard in order to create a great future of our own. We should make the best of every hour and be the master of today. We should do everything before us as well as possible. And never what can be done today till tomorrow.

As we all know, “Time and tide wait for man.” If you waste today, you will feel tomorrow. So from now on, work hard. Tomorrow will be better, and your future will be . Remember :“No pains, no gains.”Today’s hard work is the cause of tomorrow’s harvest.

Qi Haoran, a Junior One student, was quite busy over the past winter vacation – and not just with homework. Qi, together with 10 other classmates made a volunteer group to call on people to join the Clean Your Plate Campaign (光盘行动).

The 11 students went to many restaurants and told people the importance of saving food.“Excuse me, do you know that 950 million people around the world still haven’t got enough to eat? Could you please not waste food?” They would say this kind of thing hundreds of times every day.

The Clean Your Plate Campaign began on the Internet in January. It calls on people to reduce food waste.

China in these years had serious problems with wasted food. CCTV reported in January that the food Chinese people waste every year is enough to feed 200 million people for a 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 their food.

Luckily the campaign has got the support of many. In a restaurant in Xinjiang, the owner gives the guests who have eaten up all that they ordered a sticker. People can enjoy a free meal when they have 10 stickers. More than 750 restaurants in Beijing have begun to offer smaller dishes and encourage their guests to take leftovers(吃剩的食物) home.

To reduce food waste is a big task, and it needs time. It’s important that everyone does their bit, just like Qi. Did you finish your meals today?
