【1】句意：他们经常点的食物比他们需要的多。

空格在名词前，判断填形容词；根据下文“When they are full, they just throw away the rest to the dustbin.”推断上文指点的食物比他们需要的多，more更多的，形容词，故答案为more。

根据上文“And they often order more food than they need.”推断下文指吃饱了就把剩下的扔进垃圾箱；throw扔，动词；空格是句子的谓语判断填动词，句子陈述一种客观事实，用一般现在时，主语是they，动词用原形，故答案为throw。

【3】句意：但我知道世界上还有很多人缺少食物，所以我尽量在任何时候任何地方都节省食物。

根据上文“But I know that there are still many people around the world which are short of food”推断下文指要节省食物；save节约，动词；try one’s best to do sth尽力做某事，推断空格填动词原形；故答案为save。

【5】句意：当我们到餐厅的时候，女服务员带我们坐在一张桌子旁，给了我们一份大菜单让我们看一看。

空格在定冠词后，判断填名词；从“took us to sit at a table and gave us a big menu to have a look.”——带我们坐在一张桌子旁，给了我们一份大菜单让我们看一看，推断空格指服务员，根据“Then she left.”推断空格是指女服务员，waitress女服务员，名词；故答案为waitress。

【6】句意：过了一些时间，她回来要我们菜单。

【8】句意：我告诉他们很多人仍然饥饿，他们需要食物。

根据下文“they needed food”推断上文指多人仍然饥饿，空格在be动词后面，判断填形容词；hungry饥饿的，形容词；故答案为hungry。

【9】句意：最后我们只吃了五道菜，每盘都吃完了。

由上文可知用原本要订九道菜，减掉四道菜，后来吃了五道菜；故答案为five。
