Don’t worry! Be happy!
If I were a bird, I’d fly up high,
Above the clouds, up in the sky.
I’d float and sing and soar and play,
Without any worries to ruin my day.
If I were a dolphin, I’d splash in the sea,
And dive and flip — great fun for me!
I’d play with friends under the sea.
There’d be no chores or homework to do.
If I were a bear, I’d sleep all day,
And then wake up at night to play.
I’d fish and run and jump and climb,
With no one around to ruin my good time.

If I were a dog, during the day I’d rest.
So when Master came home, I’d be at my best-
Ready to run or play balls or catch,
Ready to jump, roll over or fetch.
But I’m not a dog or a bird or a bear,
I’m not a dolphin who can swim everywhere.
I’m just a kid who wants to have fun,
But I know I can’t until my work’s ________.

Who wants to eat food that is thrown away as waste? Believe it or not, that’s exactly what world leaders did at a lunch held by the United Nations in 2015.
During the meal, the world leaders enjoyed dishes like salads and burgers made with thrown-away vegetables and fruits. Chef Dan Barber, who helped create the meal, hoped that the experience would make the leaders pay more attention to the issue of food waste.
It is a huge problem. One out of nine people on Earth does not get enough food. Yet every year over one third of the food produced worldwide goes to waste!
Why is so much food wasted? Firstly, food is often thrown away before it reaches customers because too much of it is produced, or because it is not kept properly in farms. Secondly, shops and supermarkets usually throw away unsold food. Finally, customers often buy more food than they need, so a lot of uneaten food is wasted.
How can you waste less food? When eating out, you may ask for less food and take home what is left. Visit fast food restaurants less often, since they are usually more wasteful. Encourage your favorite restaurants to give unsold food to food banks.
You can also waste less food at home. Use smaller rice bowls so that you serve less rice. Encourage family members to use unfinished rice to make rice puddings. Tell family members to make a shopping list and buy only what is on the list when shopping for food.
Food waste is a growing problem and we, either farmers or food sellers or customers, must take this problem more seriously and do what we can to help.
【1】What did world leaders do at a lunch held by the United Nations in 2015?
A. They threw away food as waste during the meal.
B. They made dishes with waste vegetables and fruits
C. They ate food made with waste vegetables and fruits.
D. They helped Chef Dan Barber create the special meal.
【2】The underlined word "issue" in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to ________.
A. result
B. problem
C. cause
D. beginning
【3】The writer organizes Paragraph 4 by asking a question and ______.
A. giving examples
B. using numbers
C. listing reasons
D. telling a story
【4】Which way of wasting less food is mentioned in the passage?
A. Buying unsold food from supermarkets.
B. Keeping food properly in a fridge.
C. Using smaller rice bowls when eating out.
D. Asking for less food in restaurants.

Are you shy? If you are, you are not a【1】.In fact, about 50 percent of people are shy. Almost 80 percent of people feel shy at some point in their lives. Now, scientists have some interesting ideas about why people are shy.
Scientists say 15 to 20 percent of babies behave shyly. These babies are a little q【2】 and more watchful(警惕的)than other babies. Interestingly, these shy babies usually have shy parents . As a result, scientists believe some shyness is genetic(遗传的).
Family s【3】 may be another reason. Scientists at Harvard University found 66 percent of shy children had older brothers and sisters. These children were often bullied(欺侮)by their brothers and sisters. So, they became shy. However, children with no brothers or sisters can be shy as well. Growing up alone, they often play by themselves. It's hard for them to develop s【4】skills as children from big families.
You may also be shy because of your birthplace. In Japan, most people are shy while in Israel(以色列), only one third of people are. Why? One scientist found they treat failure differently. In Japan, when people f 【5】, they blame(责备)themselves. In Israel, people often blame other things, such as family, friends, or bad luck.
For shy people, it can be difficult to make friends, speak in class, and even get a good job. But scientists say you can get over your shyness. They suggest trying new things and talking with others more.
