Over the past six years, he has taken care of his mother who got Alzheimer's(老年痴呆症)disease.Chen's mother, 64-year-old Chen Yueguang, has been ill since 2007. The illness became very serious quickly and she has lost the ability to speak and cannot look after herself. None of Chen's other family members, however,could take care of their sick mother. Chen's father died in a traffic accident when he was eight, his two sisters married far away and his wife has a 92-year-old grandmother to look after.Chen taught Chinese in Central School of Lengshui Town, which is about 30 kilometers awayfrom his home in Pan'an. So he spent five days at school and only went home on weekends. When he said he would take his mother to work, even his wife was doubtful and worried. She really didn't think it is a good idea for him to take care of his mother in school. She worried what if he lost his job because of this.But Chen had made the decision. Soon he was putting a safety hat onto his mother's head and helping her sit on his electric bike's back seat. He thinks that his mother used to take him around and now he should take her.These days, things got a little easier for him. With the help of Pan'an government, Chen got a new job in Pan'an Middle Schoolin October 2012. The new school is only five minutes' ride from his home, which means he can take care of his mother more conveniently.Chen feels happiest when his mother is looking at him. She must have forgotten who he is, and she even can't call his name. But she surely knows that Chen is kind to her. He feels that is enough.On February 19th, 2013, Chen got the prize for Touching China, held by China Central Television to honor those whose performances have moved the people.( )8.

Touching China honors people whose performances move usDIt is reported by Chinese Xinhua News that students waste more food than the national average(全国平均量). So the campaign(运动) on school food waste is getting popular across the country. The move is part of a national campaign started by students at different schools.At East China University of Science, students who finish their food in the school dining hall get a special card when they return their plates after meals. Students can collect cards and exchange them for small gifts, such as books, schoolbags, magazines and umbrellas. "It's been such a surprise," said Liang Zhaoyun, 19, a student in Shanghai. "It has given us one more motivation(动力) to eat up our food.""The purpose of the campaign is not only to encourage students to finish their food. We hope it can also teach students to choose a more environment-friendly and healthy lifestyle," said Tao Siliang from University of Traditional Chinese Medicine.Other schools also pay attention to the quantity(数量) offood. At Nanjing No. 9 Middle School, rice is divided intothree different-sized bowls that students can choose fromaccording to their own need. "It's great because I can trydifferent dishes at half price and don't waste so much food,"said Fan Peng, 15, a student from this middle school.What if you really can't finish all your food? AtChangchun Normal College, they provide a take-away service. "If you can't finish all your food, you can get a box to take the left food home. Even if you feed the cat, it's not wasted," said Zhou Zeyong, a student who learns Chinese education. ."I'm happy that we've cut down waste since joining the school 'eat-up' meeting. But some food is poorly cooked, meaning that students are not willing to finish it all. Some schools have taken note of this. So if we hope students try to waste less food, we should also improve the service and keep an eye on the meal quality on weekdays at school. If not, you can't complain students for throwing away much food," said Wang Guangji, the head teacher of Beijing No. 29 Middle School.( )12. Why did we start the campaign on food waste at schools?
