25、Although we all know that food should never go to waste, as much as two billion tons of it ends up in the trash.

Considering that nearly one billion people worldwide are either starving or hungry, this figure is shocking. What is perhaps more shocking is that every one of these mouths could be fed using less than a quarter of the food that is wasted in the United States and in Europe alone!

How so much food is wasted each year? Some foods may be lost in production or poor transportation and storage (储藏). Damaged or imperfect-looking fruits and vegetables may be thrown out since most supermarkets won’t buy them.

Of the items that do make it to the market, many will go bad while sitting on the shelf. Once bought and placed in the fridge at home, a certain amount of food will go bad because of improper (不恰当的) meal planning. Then, there is food that might get prepared but ends up being thrown away when we are full.

To help deal with the issue of food waste, a number of improvements need to be made. In developing countries, the problem lies mainly in production. By improving collecting, processing, storage, and transportation methods, people can save millions of tons of food each year.

In the developed world, the problem comes down to raising awareness (意识). In the United States, for example, some restaurants have begun offering smaller size dishes and are encouraging diners to take home their leftovers.

In a world with limited land, water, and energy, we need to pay more attention to the problem of food waste. With our ever-increasing population, it’s time to stop wasting food and start taking action!

【1】According to the passage, what is a shocking fact about food?

A．Less than 25 of the food wasted in the US and Europe could feed every hungry person.

B．It is said that restaurants in the United States make up one quarter of all food waste.

C．The planet will probably run out of food in the next one hundred years.

D．More than two billion people on the earth go hungry every single day.

【2】One of the reasons why so much food gets wasted each year is that ________.

A．it’s too expensive to store food

B．it gets lost during the production process

C．it doesn’t get collected in time

D．there isn’t enough water to grow all the plants

【3】The underlined word “issue” in Paragraph s is closest in meaning to ________.

A．event

B．result

C．beginning

D．problem

【4】Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a way to deal with food waste?

A．Developed countries should improve collecting and processing.

B．People should eat out to avoid improper meal planning.

C．Restaurants should provide smaller size dishes of food.

D．We should pay more attention to the problem of food waste.
