23、It is an ancient Chinese tradition to cherish grain. In ancient China, farming promoted the development of civilization so people regarded grain as a God. The ancient people firmly believed that “food is the most important thing for the people”. The earth God “She” and the grain God “Ji” were the earliest gods worshipped by our ancestors and the country was called “Sheji”.
Chinese believe in food conservation. Scholars have strongly advocated that “every single grain is fruit of hard work” and nothing should be wasted. Strong daily practices are associated with “respecting” the grain. Families that run out of rice never leave their container completely empty. There is always a little rice left in it. Parts of the poultry (家禽) and livestock that are unsuitable to be the main dishes are always deliciously cooked.
Food also helps bring people together. In Chinese culture, “Ju” (get together)is a very particular word. There are many ways to get together, but the word “Can” is usually added to it in case of festivals, birthday celebrations, moving to new houses, weddings and funeral. “Ju Can”(get together and have dinner)is an important way for Chinese families to bond.
But these ordinarily frugal (节俭的) people often end up wasting food during “Ju Can”. Some reports show that the annual waste of grain in China is close to 6% of the total grain output, of which, the waste rate of a large party is as high as 38%. The food waste is driven by people’s flamboyant nature-they think the plates must be full and taking away packed food from a party is “disgraceful”. The dishes at a dinner party have become a symbol of a person’s wealth and having too many dishes at the menu has become fashionable, thus promoting waste.
Small to a person, a family, big to a country, the whole human race, to survive, to develop, we have to be frugal. Being frugal does not mean being mean, it simply means one is wise enough not to waste food. If the culture of diligence and frugality is more widespread in all countries, it would provide for a stronger foundation for national security and family happiness.
【1】Why does the author mention “Sheji” in Paragraph 1?
A．To prove China enjoys a long history.
B．To explain Chinese tradition of cherishing food.
C．To show farming promoted Chinese civilization.
D．To clarify who is the earliest god in China.

D．The food waste in “Ju Can” and the reason behind it.
【4】The underlined word “flamboyant” in Paragraph 4 can be understood as .
A．showy

24、Fancy a holiday to the moon? Sounds crazy? Not really. A Japanese company has been working on how to organize holidays to the moon for several years now.【1】
Trying to make the holiday possible will not be an easy task, and the Japanese company plans to make it in stages.【2】A transport system, like the space shuttle ( 航天飞机) used by NASA at the moment is likely to be developed for this purpose.
The next stage is to build a big hotel orbiting 500 km above the earth. The hotel will orbit the earth once every four or five hours, which will offer visitors some fascinating views of the earth. 【3】While this may not seem very exciting at first, think about new sports that can be designed for people to play in zero gravity.
The final stage in the plan is the construction of a hotel on the surface of the moon itself. As solar energy would be used to provide power, it would be important to build the hotel near one of the poles of the moon in order to gather as much solar energy as possible.【4】It is also important to find a part of the moon which is flat, as a long runway will need to be built for the space shuttle to land on. Meanwhile, the company has already developed ways to make cement (水泥) on the moon. 【5】The company plans to produce water from oxygen elements, which can be found in moon rocks and hydrogen, which will have to be imported from earth.
So perhaps in a few years you might be enjoying yourselves on the moon.
A．Next, the hotel will have a wide range of sporting activities.
B．Tourists who want to travel into space can stay at a big hotel.
C．The first thing to do is to organize trips around the earth for a few hours.

E．There is plenty of sand, but the big problem will come with producing water.
F．This part of the development plan does not seem to be too difficult to carry out.
G．This is because a lunar day, which is 14 earth days long, is followed by 14 days of darkness.
