How will you escape? Do you know how to save yourself? Please read the following passage.Escaping a fire is a serious matter. Knowing what to do during a fire can save yourself.

Do you know how cities began? Long long ago, the world had only a few thousand people. These people moved from one place to another. They moved over the land, hunting animals for food. No one knows how or when these people learned about growing food. But when they did, their lives changed. They did not have to move houses any more. They could stay in one place and grow it.

Ranking as the eleventh animal in the Chinese zodiac - the Shengxiao, Dog is a symbol of loyalty (忠诚) and honesty.Self-mocker (自嘲)Words and phrases including dogs (Gou in Chinese) are commonly used by young people when telling jokes about themselves. For example, you can say “Valentines Day has nothing to do with me since I am a single dog.” It is believed that dog-related words and phrases usually have good humour.Close relationshipAmong some young people, adding “dog” to a friends name has the meaning of a close relationship. One of the most famous examples in China is that the actor Lin Gengxin is called Lin Gou by his close friends and beloved fans.Easy to raiseKids with pleasant names are easy to bring up, according to an ancient Chinese saying. Parents in the countryside prefer to give nicknames including Gou Sheng and Gou Dan to their kids in the hope that they are as easy to be raised as dogs.Metaphor (隐喻)Since dogs are considered to have many good qualities ( 品 质 ), the word is included in more than 10 Chinese metaphors.

The UN started the day in 1979. Its used to remind people not to waste food and fight hunger.A big number of people in the world still dont have enough food to eat. Food shortage(匮乏) is a big problem worldwide. Right now, there are more than 1000 million hungry people in the world according to the UN. Many children go to sleep hungry, and 15 million of them die of hunger each year.There are several reasons why there are food shortages. First,there have been more droughts(干旱) and floods recently. Also,a growing population makes feeding everyone more difficult.Another big reason is food waste. Most people dont realize how much food they throw away every day. Sometimes we cook too much, or we dont use it goes bad. The average(平均的) person throws away 50kg of food every year. According to the UN, more than third of all food produced worldwide goes to waste each year.That is over 1,300,000 million kilograms of food being wasted. The amount of food wasted in Europe can feed 200 million people, and the food wasted in Latin America can feed 300 million a year.So think twice next time you want to throw away food.By cutting down on food waste, we could help put food on the empty plates of some hungry children. Only order as much food as you can eat at a restaurant. If you cant eat all you order, take the rest home. Dont be too picky about food so that you dont leave any on your plate. Some food may not taste great, but your body needs it. Keep an eye on what food you have at home. Dont buy too much. Dont cook too much.When you throw away food, you are not just wasting the food itself. Resources(资源) are also wasted while growing, transporting and cooking the food. These things all take energy, time and water.title:_on World Food Daythe UNs _to start this dayto remind people not to waste food and fight hungerfacts of food shortageOver 1,000 million people are hungry each year.15 million children die of hunger each year.reasons for food shortagemore droughts and floods nowa growing populationFood wasteworldwide_of it each year The average person throws away 50kg of food.
