【推荐1】At East China University of Science and Technology, students will get a coupon(优惠券)if they eat up their food. Students can collect coupons and exchange them for small gifts,such as books, magazines, mobile phone covers and band warmers.
“It’s been such a surprise,” said Liang Zhaoyun, 19, a student at the university in Shanghai. “It has given us one more motivation to finish our food.”
The measure is part of a national “eat-up” campaign(行动)which is organized by students to deal with food waste on campuses(校园).
Why only on campuses,you might ask?Because according to a report by Xinhua News Agency, students
waste twice as much food as the national average(平均).
The campaign on campus food waste is receiving attention across the country. “The aim of the campaign is not only to encourage students to finish their food. We hope it can also encourage students to choose a more environment-friendly and healthy lifestyle,” said Tao Siliang,secretary of the Youth League Committee at Shanghai University.
But some school food is poorly prepared,so students do not like to finish it all. Some schools have taken notice of this and they are taking measures to improve it.
“I’m glad that we've reduced food waste since ‘eat-up’' campaign began. But if we call on students to waste less food,we should also improve the service and food standard on campuses,” said Tao.

Food Safety Tuesday, March 28, 2019 |
Everyone knows the importance of food safety. Recently, China has published a new food safety regulation(法规)to take stricter supervision(监管)over school food safety. The regulation came into effect on April 1, and replaced an earlier one which was introduced in 2002. “It is necessary to publish such a regulation to improve the health standards of school food,” said an officer, who works in the Ministry of Education(教育部). Under the new regulation, school officers from kindergartens to high schools are required to eat together with students during the school meals. The plan will guide them to pay more attention to school food safety, as well as find food problems in time. Student menus, food sources, suppliers(供应商)and other food information are required to be shown in public by schools once a week. According to this regulation, students’ parents are also invited to eat with students in school to take away their doubts. The regulation said schools should keep an eye on developing students’ healthy eating habits and pay close attention to food safety. In general, food stores are not allowed in kindergartens, primary schools and high schools. Also, all the markets should not sell food high in salt, sugar or fat which may do harm to students’ health. |

True friendship doesn’t mean that when you need your friend’s help,you will treat him to dinner,and when you have to protect yourself,you will put your friends in a difficult situation.
In fact,true friendship is the communication and understanding of the hearts.
True friendship is like water. Compared wish decent wine,water is tasteless,but is of great help when we are thirsty. True friends don’t need to be with each other every day,but are connected in heart every minute.
True friendship is like medicine. Though it is bitter,it cures your illness. True friends give you some suggestions even if they know you would not take. They criticize(批评)you when others have a good word for you,not because of envy but worrying that you may lose your cool head.
True friendship has nothing to do with fame,power or money. True friends would often watch you silently far away when you are influential,but come to you whenever you need their help. You’re not his stepping-stone to success,but are his crutch(精神寄托)to live through difficulties.
True friends make you complete. Many persons go along with you through your life ─ your parents,your spouse(配偶),and your children,who take care of you and make your life happy. However,you still need someone who understands your thoughts and souls. Without them,you are likely to be unhealthy in spirit.
True friends stay in your heart,rather than at your side;they know you more than yourself,and try to better you.
Once you have found such a true friend,do treasure(珍惜)him. If your true friend disappears,how can you make the sound of your heart understood?

【推荐2】We all have to ask for help sometimes. But it can be a difficult thing to do—even when you ask a good friend for help. So how can you ask for help and be sure to get a proper response(答复)? Here are some suggestions.
Be a nice person
When you ask someone for help, you’re really asking the person to go out of his or her way to help you. Show the person that you understand that he or she is doing something significant for you. If people think you’re friendly, they probably help you. Thank them sincerely(真诚地)when they help you. And, of course, a smile goes a long way.
Choose your words carefully
How do people respond(回应)to requests like “Hey, Mike, lend me your car!” They probably refuse. How can you avoid this problem? Choose your words carefully. For example, you can say. “Mike, would you mind giving me a hand?” Mike will probably respond like “Maybe. What do you need?” Now you have his attention and you can explain the situation. People may agree to help you when they know the whole story.
Show your respect(尊重)
If someone agrees to gave you a hand, allow the person to choose when he or she helps you. You should respect the other person’s time, and try not to ask for too much. If someone refuses your request, you should accept the answer politely. Don’t make a habit of asking for help, and always make sure you’re ready to help others in return.

“Add oil,” a popular Chinese phrase has been officially added to the Oxford English Dictionary (OED 牛津英语词典).
“Add oil” is a direct English translation of the Chinese phrase “jiayou”, an exclamation used very often across China to express encouragement or support for someone else. The phrase, “jiayou” in Chinese, literally (字面上) means put petrol to an engine. Chinese often speak it loudly in games and competitions to encourage players.
It was Hugo Tseng, an English professor at Taiwan’s Soochow University, who first noticed the entry (条目). Tseng said excitedly that for more than 10 years he had been often checking for the phrase following each OED quarterly update (更新).
Long before, a number of other Chinese phrases have been included in the OED, such as Guanxi (personal connections that are good for business) and Lucky money (cash given in red envelopes).
In 2014, the American Urban Dictionary(城市词典) collected several Chinese internet buzzwords, such as “no zuo no die” (which translates into English as “if you don’t do stupid things, they won’t come back and bite you in the back”), “you can you up, no can no BB” (which means “if you can do it you should go on and do it, instead of criticizing others’ work”).
The process for adding new words to the Oxford English Dictionary is as follows.
• Dictionary compilers(编著者) notice a word’s widespread and repeated use by people.
• Degree of shared use and easy understanding will influence the consideration.
• Qualifying buzzwords from different languages are placed on a “watch list” for consideration.
• New additions first appear in the dictionary’s official web databank before hard copies are printed. The online version(版本) is renewed every three months. The next update is in December.
