Say “no” to food waste
Food waste is common in many schools. Students at Whitewater Middle School in the US once looked at 200 pounds (90.7 kg) of food, 1.i pizzas and salads, which had been thrown away after just one of their school’s daily meals. It was, they said, 2.b disgusting(恶心的) and educational.
“You don’t 3.r how much food waste you’re making till you see it,” said Student Cody Gist.
To deal with this problem, Whitewater has added environmental science as a new school 4.p this year. Teachers will lead students to do research on the ways in which food is related to the 5.e , poverty(贫穷), and people’s health.
The school is now using compostable(可用作堆肥的) paper trays(纸托盘) as well. It worked with Every Tray Counts, a US nonprofit group. They hope students will get 6.r of disposable(一次性的) trays and use compostable ones 7.i . This can help to save more landfill(垃圾填埋) space and protect the environment.
Whitewater teachers make sure students know how their own eating habits are part of bigger problems. In environmental literature class, students 8.r books such as Fast Food Nation, The Dark Side of the All-American Meal.
Teacher Mollie Lyman works with several language arts classes. These classes discuss topics 9.l how poor neighborhoods often have less access to healthy food.

Paper money replaced?
Have you heard the news? China will update the 5th edition of its currency(货币) later this year,1.a to the People’s Bank of China. The new versions of China’s banknotes will feature brighter colors and improved features to 2.p people from making fake(假的) money.
China was the 3.f country in the world to use paper money. During the Northern Song Dynasty(960—1279), traders came up with a paper replacement for the heavy copper coins. These early banknotes were called jiaozi. After being used more often in trading, it was 4.g accepted as a form of payment.
We’ve come a long way 5.s the first paper banknote was printed. In fact, it’s quite possible that you might not even have any paper money in your pocket right now. Why? Because you have WeChat Wallet and Alipay. Is it 6.p that we might completely get rid of paper money one day?
Some countries are moving 7.c to that possibility. In Sweden, for instance, cash takes up just 1.3 percent of the country’s GDP, as most people use bank cards, according to the Bank for International Settlements. However, country’s own government has warned people to hang on to some of their cash in case of a cyber-attack(网络攻击) or war.
It is obvious that there are 8.b advantages and disadvantages to going cashless. On the one hand, it’s quite convenient, and there’s no risk of losing your money if your wallet is 9.s or lost. On the other hand, there is the possibility that hackers(黑客) could break into your bank account. It’s also harder to control your spending when you are paying with “invisible(隐形的)” 10.m . In the end, it’s probably best to keep some cash at home—just in case.

If you need to call your parents but your phone is not with you, can you remember their 1.n ?
To remember 11 numbers is not difficult. 2.H , because of the smartphone, many of us are losing this 3.a , Record Japan reported. What’s more, smartphones make our skills at giving directions weak, as well as killing face-to-face communications. Even when friends are having a meal together, it’s 4.c for most to check their phones.
5.A to a report by Kleiner Perkins Caufield Byers, an American company, Chinese people spend on average 170 minutes on their smartphones daily. For students, an addiction(上瘾) to smartphones does no good for studying. Research in Japan showed children who 6.s more than four hours a day on their phones do much 7.w in school tests than those who play with their phones for 30 minutes.
It’s 8.t that the smartphone has made our lives easier. But many also think they spend too much time on it, and this is bad for their study or work. People are trying to change that.
A new app 9.n Forest was introduced this month. It lets users plant a seed that grows into a tree over the next 30 minutes. During the half hour, users cannot use their phones, or the tree will die.
A restaurant in Los Angeles, US, gives people a 5% discount(折扣) if they don’t 10.c their phones during a meal. Owner Mark Gold said that he hopes it gives people a way to enjoy their meal and really talk with friends and family in person.
