公德类文章从2000年至今考过两次。鉴于今年的情况，这道题还是有一定意义。这道题我们可以从负面去写，指出这种现象的原因和影响。而我们这篇文章更多的是从正面提出倡议。
Key words:virtue;thrift;thrifty;economical;boost economy;promote
As is depicted in this impressive picture,a family with a pair of parents and a child are to leave the restaurant room where they have just finished their dinner,a waitress standing in the room waving goodbye to them.What is the most attention-catching is that all the dishes on the table are eaten up.On the wall is a line of words which read that it is a virtue to Clear Your Plates.
Obviously,what the picture intends to convey is a social virtue to be promoted:wasting no food.As a Chinese saying goes,every grain comes from hard work.That's why we have been taught not to waste food since our childhood.Besides,although the economy in our country has boosted a lot and our country is now considered as a great power,it is still a developing country with more than 1.3 billion population to feed.According to World Food Survey,every year more than 5 million people are still malnour ished.This is especially true in developing countries including China.What a thrilling number it is!Therefore,the"Clear Your Plates"campaign is the call of the day to all people,rich or poor.
To conclude,it is everyone's obligation to save food for ourselves and for other people.It is highly recommended that departments concerned should take immediate measure to enhance public awareness that it is a virtue to be economical.
