 Conflict (冲突) happens when two people disagree because of their own goals, values, or beliefs. It’s not always as simple as an argument.

 Parents and teenagers have many chances to have conflict with one another. Adolescence (青春期) is a time when independence and parental influence fight, since teens are able to think on their own but still live with parents who have rules and expectations for them. When kids don’t show up at home late at night, their parents get worried. A worried parent becomes a scolding parent. When the teen does come home, he/she will get punishment.

 Sometimes, teens want to have noisy fun while their parents want to sleep. This is a common conflict that happens every day. Parents might use the teenager’s grades to judge (判断) him/her every time the grades are reported. The conflict happens when the parents’ expectations aren’t met.

 People often use their phones to take pictures of their meals especially fancy (华丽的) ones to share online. But Clear Plate, a WeChat mini-program, encourages you to take pictures of your empty plates after a meal. The program’s AI “see” that your plates are empty and gives you points. You can use these points to buy yourself gifts or give away the points to buy meals for children in poor areas.

 The program was developed by Liu, a student at Tsinghua University. Liu came up with the idea in 2017. “Technological innovation (创新) is a good way to cut down food waste,” said Liu. He put together a 20-member team to work on the program. To teach the program’s AI how to recognize empty plates, the team spent half a year collecting 100, 000 photo samples from cafes and restaurants in 10 cities.

 The team also started a campaign (活动) called Clear Your Plate in Chinese universities in 2018. Students competed against each other to see who could get those most points in Clear Plate. Now in its third year, the one-month campaign has reached 1, 017 schools. In 2020, almost 1. 6 million people took part in it, cutting down food waste by 862 tons.

 Thanks to his work, Liu was named by the United Nations in the list of 2020 Class of Young Leaders for Sustainable (可持续发展的) Development Goals. “We hope our efforts can encourage young people to value their food and develop the habit of thrift (节俭),” Liu said.

 66. How did Clear Plate encourage people to take pictures of empty plates after a meal?

 A. It gives points that people can use to buy things.

 B. It gives away meals to people for free.

 C. It sends gifts to people with high scores.

 D. It makes people compete against each other.

67. Liu’s team developed the program in order to __________.

 A. collect photo samples of food  B. cut down food waste

 C. teach people to take fancy pictures  D. help children in poor areas

68. What can we learn about the campaign Clear Your Plate?

 A. It was first started in middle schools.  B. It lasts for a whole year.

 C. It brings a lot of good.   D. It attracts a small number of students.

69. What’s TRUE about Liu?

 A. Liu likes taking pictures of his meals and sharing them online.

 B. Liu is now a famous professor at Tsinghua University.

 C. Liu’s team got the most points in Clear Plate campaign.

 D. Liu has influenced lots of young people through his efforts.

70. What is the best title for the passage?
