When I was a boy growing up,I could not once ever remember either my mom or my grandmother wasting food.Anything we didn't eat at one meal was saved,stored,and served as leftovers(剩飯剩菜)later on.I can remember my grandmother making a huge pot of brown beans with a large cake of cornbread.We would all eat until we were stuffedbut there was always about half of the beans left over.A few days later my grandmother would take those beans out of the refrigerator,boil pasta,add parsley and mix them all
together into her delicious Pasta Fasule.And I also remember when I watched my mom fry bacon for us in the mornings,she would always take the grease(油脂)and carefully pour it in to a container.Then she later would use it to flavor up so many other dishes.I was an adult before I realized that green beans didn't actually taste like bacon.
I learned their lessons well and after I grew up I tried never to waste food by myself.I always planned the week's meals ahead of time and only bought what was on my shopping list so nothing went to waste.Every meal went into my stomach and any leftovers were later eaten by either myself,my boys,or my dogs.To me throwing food in the trash was just wrong.All the work it took to grow it,harvest it,and prepare it needed to be honored,not wasted.
I learned something else over the years,however:when it comes to living there are no leftovers.Each moment that you don't live is lost forever.Life cannot be saved.Life cannot be stored.Life has to be lived,TODAY!
Live each moment of your life to the fullest then.Make every day a feast of love with no leftovers.Leo Buscaglia once said: "Each day is a fresh beginning,a little life unto itself. " Don't let any of these little lives go to waste.Live your life with a full belly and a full heart.

(2)How could the beans the author ate as a child taste like bacon?(no more than 10 words) His mother added grease from frying bacon to the beans.His mother added grease from frying bacon to the beans.

3.I remember my math teacher Mr.Young very well.He stood out because the kids made fun of him.He was missing one of his fingers,and always pointed at students with his middle finger.
I was not very good at English and math.No matter how hard I tried,I just could not figure out why I did not understand what all the other kids found so easy to learn.
One day,I was told that if I got one more E on my report card,I would be taken to the "big prison for kids".
I tried really hard for weeks.I just couldn't understand how to make different parts of members into whole things.
The day before report cards were to come out,I knew that Mr.Young would give me an E,just like he always did.
I went to Mr.Young and told him that the orphanage (孤兒院) was going to send me to the big prison if I got another E on my report card.He told me there was nothing he could do;it would be unfair to the other kids if he gave me a better grade than I had actually earned.
I smiled at him and said, "Mr.Young,do you know how the kids make fun of you because you're missing your finger?" He looked at me,moved his mouth to one side and said nothing.
"They shouldn't do that to you because you can't help not having a finger,Mr.Young.Just like I can't help not being able to learn numbers and stuff like that." I said.
The next day,when I got my report card,I tucked it into one of my books.While on the school bus,I opened it:Geography,B+;Mechanical Drawing,C-;English,D-;History,C-;Gym,B+;Art,C;Math,D-.
That math grade was the most favorite one I ever received.Because I knew that someone in the world finally understood what it was like for me to be missing a finger inside my head.
