Reading comprehensionA. Choose the best answerThe next time you sit down to a delicious dinner, ask yourself, “How much food will I be able to eat?” If you think about only taking as much food as you can eat, it will help cut down on waste. Every day, a large amount of food goes uneaten and ends up in the garbage. This is very sad considering that many people can’t even afford to have one meal every day. The problem of waste happens all over the world. People often feel the need to spend more than they can manage. This often results in waste and it can be a big problem. However, there are many things that we can do to help cut down on garbage and waste.The most important thing to remember is to be friendly to the environment. Only take as much food as you can eat, buy things in environment friendly packaging such as paper or cardboard, and leave garbage in its proper place. If every person could cut down on waste, even just a little, the overall effect would be great.Garbage and waste can be a big problem in large cities. If garbage or food is left in the streets, it can make the city dirty and may also lead to a bad smell in the streets. We all need to be responsible to clean up this problem and make the city more pleasant.It is impossible to get rid of waste completely, but we can greatly reduce it. No one is perfect, but if we pay more attention to what kinds of effect our waste has on the environment, we can work together to control the problem.69.
