A

An average 30­year­old person who has eaten three meals a day since birth has eaten more than 30000 meals to date.Even if you've only eaten half that much you have to admit thisyou've let some of that breakfast, lunch or dinner go to waste.And it turns out we're all to blame for this shaming fact30% of all food produced in the world each year is wasted or lost.That's about 1.3 billion tons, according to a new report by the UN Food and Agriculture Organization.

That's the weight of more than 8.6 million full­grown blue whales, the largest creatures on earth.That's the weight of more than 2.3 million Airbus A380s, the largest planes in existence.That's as if each person in China, the world's most populous country with more than 1.3 billion people, had one ton mass of food thrown into the dustbin.It's almost unfathomable, isn't it?

Setting aside that big number, we find the people with the most money are the ones who waste the most.On average, a person in European and North American countries wastes between 95 and 115 kilograms of food.Sub­Saharan African, South Asian and Southeast Asian countries waste much, much less — between 6 and 11 kilograms per person.

Here's another statisticall the food that the world's richest countries waste is about equal to all the food that sub­Saharan Africa produces.The number's222 million tons and 230 million tons, respectively (分别地).Basically, the wasted food of the rich could feed much of the African continent.And these numbers come as we've just been reporting about rising food prices around the world in the past week.

And my own personal tipif I eat at a restaurant and can't finish it all, I ask for a doggie bag.I used to be a waiter years ago and will never forget the amounts of food I saw left on the table after the bill was paid.There's no reason to waste food.It's up to all of us to use our common sense to eat and shop just a bit more wisely.

语篇解读本文是一篇说明文。根据联合国粮农组织的一份报告,目前全球生产出来的30%的食物在消费过程中被浪费了。作者呼吁人们不要浪费食物,要更明智地生活。

1What does the underlined word “unfathomable” in Paragraph 2 mean?

APossible to imagine.

BImpossible to change.

CImpossible to understand.

DPossible to understand.

解析:C 词义猜测题。根据第二段可知,每年浪费的食物的重量超过了860万头地球上最大的动物——蓝鲸的重量,也超过了230万架世界上现有的最大的飞机——空中客车A380的重量。这也好比在世界拥有超过13亿人的人口最多的国家——中国,人均向垃圾桶里倾倒一吨的食物。由此可推知这种现象使人难以理解。unfathomable意为难以理解的,深不可测的

2It can be learned that the food the rich waste can support    

Ahalf the people in Europe

Bmost people of America

Cmost people of Asia

Dmost people of Africa

解析:D 细节理解题。根据第四段倒数第二句可知,富有的国家浪费的食物可以养活非洲大陆大部分的人口。

3The author gave his personal tip based on the fact that    

Ahe was once very poor

Bhe was once a farmer

Che once worked in a restaurant

Dthe price of food is very high

解析:C 细节理解题。根据最后一段第二句可知,作者的建议是根据他曾是一个餐厅服务员的工作经历而给出的。

4What is the purpose of this article?

ATo show the author's opinion of food.

BTo let us live more wisely and not waste food.

CTo show the amount of wasted food a year.

DTo ask the richest countries to help African people.

解析:B 写作意图题。根据第一段倒数第二句和最后一段最后两句可推知,文章的写作目的在于让人们不要浪费食物,要更明智地生活。
