Almost every Chinese can recite the two lines of the famous poem, “Every grain on the plate comes from hard work.”But sadly, many of us don’t get the real meaning of these lines: Don’t waste food.
News 1+1，a famous CCTV program, reported that food Chinese people throw away every year is enough to feed 200 million people for a year.
Do we have too much food? No. According to the UN World Food Program, there were 925 million hungry people around the world in 2010, especially in developing countries. Six million children die of hunger every year.
Chinese people are well known for being generous(慷慨的). Many even feel that they lose face if their guests have eaten all the food on the table.
Luckily, a number of people have realized the importance of saving food. Li Hong, a waitress in a restaurant in Nanjing, got fired( 开除) because she took some leftover food home for her son. Many people stood by her side and criticized the waste of food.
What should we do in our daily lives to waste less food. Here are some tips:
★ Don’t order too much in a restaurant. Only order as much as you want to eat. If you cannot eat all the food you ordered, take the rest of it home.
★ Don’t be too picky(挑剔) about food. Some food may not taste great, but your body needs it.
★ Keep an eye on what food you have at home. Don’t buy too much, especially for vegetables and fruit.

The Yanfang line, Beijing’s first driverless subway line connecting the city’s southwest suburbs to its central urban district started its first pilot run on Wednesday morning.
It is also the capital city’s first subway line that is fully automatic, and fully equipped（装配）with domestic technology.
The line is expected to officially open to citizens at the end of next year.
The difference between the driverless subway line and the ordinary line is that the driverless technology allows the subway train to automatically complete all running procedures, including traveling, dormancy, awakening, opening and closing train doors, as well as returning, without any operations by drivers.
A comprehensive（综合的）control center has been set up for the subway line to far away control and supervise trains. In the event of an emergency, passengers riding on the subway trains are able to contact the control center through the wireless intercom（对讲机）devices that have been set up on every carriage. The camera in the carriage can automatically transmit（传输） images back to the control center.
The first Chinese-made driverless subway train opened in Hong Kong on Dec, 28. The seven-km line extends the MTR network to the Southern District, allowing the special administrative region’s 18 districts to be served by rail.

This month in Travelers Corner there are three teenagers’ experiences in year-abroad programs.
Mariko Okada--Japan
My year abroad in the United States was a fantastic experience. I’m not a shy person, and I was very comfortable speaking to everyone. So I got lots of speaking practice. I also learned lots of interesting things about American culture. When I got home, my friends all said that I had improved so much! I hope to go back again in the future.
Carla Fonseca--Brazil
I spent last year studying English in London. I’m from a small town, and London is a very big city. Sometimes I felt it was too big.

My roommate was always using our telephone, so I hardly had the chance for a nice long talk with my parents. I think it was a good experience for me, but I’m glad to be home!

Studying in New Zealand was a fun experience for me, but it was also lots of hard work! I had English classes six hours a day, five days a week with lots of homework.
