【解析】

短文講了中國人愛吃，因?yàn)槭澄锉徽J(rèn)為是最重要的溝通方式。有些人經(jīng)常點(diǎn)許多菜以至于他們吃不完。中國政府要求公眾不要浪費(fèi)食物。一些餐館的經(jīng)理正在盡其所能幫助人們減少食物浪費(fèi)。清盤行動(dòng)不僅節(jié)約糧食，而且還保護(hù)環(huán)境和我們的健康。

【1】根據(jù)上文The Chinese government asks the public not to waste food.可知，中國政府要求公眾不要浪費(fèi)食物。根據(jù)下文The managers of some restaurants are doing what they can to help people to reduce (減少) food waste.可知，一些餐館的經(jīng)理正在盡其所能幫助人們減少食物浪費(fèi)。所以此處應(yīng)起到承上啟下的作用，應(yīng)是餐館也加入到這次行動(dòng)中。故選C。

【2】根據(jù)后面的句子“the waiters should remind them to reduce the number of dishes kindly”可知，服務(wù)員應(yīng)該友好的提醒他們減少菜肴的數(shù)量，故前面的句子應(yīng)該針對(duì)顧客點(diǎn)菜較多的情況，即：如果顧客點(diǎn)的菜比他們吃的多。故選A。

【3】根據(jù)前面的句子Zhong Li, a rich woman, said,及下文Even sometimes we can order a half so that we won’t waste.可知，此句應(yīng)是關(guān)于點(diǎn)餐的個(gè)人觀點(diǎn)，即：我想我們點(diǎn)的食物應(yīng)該足夠我們吃了。故選E。

【4】根據(jù)下文We call it “cleaning the plates”.可知，此處應(yīng)表達(dá)“光盤行動(dòng)”是什么，即：把盤子里的東西都吃光。故選D。

【5】根據(jù)下文However, many people have thrown away a whole chicken or fish.可知，然而，許多人會(huì)將整雞或魚扔掉，此處表示轉(zhuǎn)折。所以上文的意思就應(yīng)該與之相反，即：仍然有很多人沒有足夠的食物。故選B。
