Many years ago, when I was working as a volunteer(志愿者)at a hospital, I got to know a little girl named Lisa. The poor little girl had a very serious disease and was dying. The doctor had done his best but no medicine really worked. The only chance to save her seemed to be a blood transfusion(输血)from her five-year-old brother. The little boy had the same disease before and had developed the antibodies(抗体)to fight the illness.

    The doctor talked to me little boy about what they planned to do, and asked him if he would be willing(愿意的)to give his blood to his sister. I saw him hesitate(迟疑)for a moment. He took a deep breath and said, "Yes, I'll do it if it can save Lisa."

    As the transfusion was going on, the little boy lay quietly in bed next to his sister. He looked at her and smiled all the time. When everything was done and the color returned to his sister's face, his smile disappeared and he looked a little afraid. He looked up at the doctor and asked, "Will I start to die now?"

Qi Haoran, a Junior One student at High School Attached to Harbin Institute of Technology, was quite busy last winter vacation - and not just with his homework.Qi, together with 10 other classmates, made a volunteer group to call on people to join the Clear Your Plate Campaign.

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 cat? Please don't waste food." They would repeat such words hundreds of times every day.

China in recent years has experienced serious problems with wasting food.CCTV has reported    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 the food, because it seems that they haven't prepared enough food for their guests.

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

To reduce food waste is a big task, and it needs time.It's important that everyone should do their bit just like Qi. So did you finish your meals today?

 阅读下面短文,从文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出一个最佳答案。

Do you know how words have an influence on others? Amy Beth Gardner chose a(n) 1 way to teach her daughter Breonna about this. She wrote on Facebook, "My daughter will 2 middle school tomorrow. We've prepared new uniforms, a new schoolbag and some other things for her. But tonight, just before bed, we did another pre-middle school3 that is far more important than others. 

Then she described 4 she took a tube of toothpaste and asked her daughter to empty the toothpaste onto a plate. After she did so, Amy Beth asked her to pull the toothpaste 5 into the tube. It was really a crazy request, so Breonna 6 , "But I can't! It won't be like what it was before."

Amy Beth then gave (an) important 7 to her child. "You will remember this toothpaste for the rest of your life. Your words have the power of life 8 death. As you go into middle school, you are going to see how much 9 your words carry. You are going to have the chance to use your words to hurt, wound and put down others. You are also going to have the chance to use Your words to help, encourage and 10 others."

Amy Beth knows that 11 fails sometimes. But it is her duty to 12 her daughter to pay attention. Just like this toothpaste, once the words leave your13 ,you can't take them back. 

"Use your words carefully, Breonna. When others are misusing (滥用) their words, 14 your words. Please be aware of (意到) your gentleness and don't 15 to choose kindness."
