Answer 1

分析 文章主要讲浪费粮食的现象，学生会把剩余的饭菜倒掉，而学校的浪费只是一小部分，我国每年浪费粮食的数量很大．

解答 16-20 BEGFD
16．B 细节题．第一行提出问题What will you do if you can't eat everything bought in the canteen？如果不能吃完在食堂买的东西，你会做什么；根据"what students waste every year could feed over 10 million people"可知，学生们会把吃不完的饭菜倒掉，由此造成的浪费能够养活一千多万人，故选B．
17．E细节题． 本段开头第一句，要结合上下文，上文讲的是学校食堂食物浪费，本段又讲的是全国食物浪费，这里需要一句能连起上下文的过渡句．故选E．食堂浪费也只是冰山一角．
18．G细节题． 上文讲In the West，横线后又说Chinese people，可知，这里讲的是关于中国的，故选G．
19．F  细节题．上段最后一句Students nowadays are well protected by their families and hardly have any concept of how much toil （辛劳） others go through in order to provide them with the food they eat可知现在的学生由于被家庭所保护而几乎不知其他的人为解决所吃的问题所经历的辛苦；又根据第二行There are over 925 million hungry people in the world，most of whom live in underdeveloped countries and areas可知，与他们相比，世界上很多人还在挨饿，他们生活在不发达的国家和地区．故选F．
20．D 根据上文中Many children die for lack of nutrition each year in some African countries．And farmers work very hard to grow the crops可知，在一些非洲国家许多孩子因为缺营养而死亡，而且农民种粮食很辛苦，因此我们没有理由浪费粮食．同时根据后一句It's also important that everyone should think about how they can do their bit to reduce food waste．每个人都应该想一想该怎样减少食物浪费也是非常重要的．故选D．
