Food waste is a world's problem． Every year， about 1.3billion tons， or one﹣third of all the food produced is thrown away， according to a survey． Using just 25percent of that wasted food could feed 870million hungry people， which would end world hunger． The people of France wasted 234pounds（磅：重量单位） of food per person， which is much better than some other countries． In the past， France wasn't good at controlling food waste， but now the country takes the lead．

A law was made by French government． It made France the first country in the world to prevent supermarkets from throwing away unused food． Now supermarkets of a certain size must donate unused food， or they will face a fine． There are other rules requiring schools to teach students about food sustainability （可持续性）． They also ask companies to report the food waste numbers in their environmental reports． And restaurants should provide take﹣out bags．

"These laws make it a standard to reduce waste．" says Marie Mourad， a student in Paris who has written several reports on French food waste． "France is not the country that wastes the least food， but Frenchmen have become the most active because they want to be the example in Europe．"

"Preventing supermarkets from throwing away food means a lot，" says Jonathan Bloom， a famous writer． "This step has influenced parts of French food industry．"

It is everyone's duty to fight against food waste． Everyone should pay attention and take action．

I'm David．Long ago I came to the city near my hometown to find a job．I met all kinds of

difficulties and I used up all my money soon．

It was dark outside one day．I got on a bus quietly．Suddenly，a passenger cries in a loud voice，

﹣Someone has stolen my money!I felt nervous，because his money was in my hand．Some people suggested the driver drive the bus to the police station，but some were against it because they were in a hurry to go back home．The whole bus was very noisy．The driver then stopped the bus by the roadside and turned on the lights．At that time，one passenger said，﹣Turn off the lights and give the thief （小偷） a chance to take out the money．‖Then the bus got dark．When I was still thinking about whether to take out the money or not，the lights were turned off again．I became even more nervous．The lights were turned on again but they got the same result．Then the passengers fell into an open discussion．Later，someone said﹣give him the last chance!‖I felt awakened （醒悟的） and took out all the money when the lights were turned off again．

For many years I have been grateful to those who gave me three chances．When the first and second chances come，you may not be prepared well or don't have enough courage to act．When the third chance comes，you should know clearly what you should do．
