It seems school children all over the world complain about their school food. Cherie Blair, the wife of former British Prime Minister Tony Blair, said that she would prepare a packed lunch for her son if school dinners do not improve. So what do students of your age eat for lunch at school?

Japan

High schools have canteens(餐厅), which serve everything from noodles to rice, but not burgers and chips. Other children bring food from home such as cold rice balls, meat or fish, pickles(泡菜) and vegetables.

Students take home a menu for the coming month containing notes on nutrition value. Twice a year parents are invited to have a taste of the food. The class with the fewest leftovers(剩饭) at the end of the month receives a prize.

United States

A typical menu from a US school is made up of a hamburger with fried potatoes or roast chicken, lettuce and pickles, fruit and cookies. School lunches must also provide at least one-third of the daily dietary allowances(定量) of protein, vitamin A, vitamin C, iron, calcium and calories.

Australia

Meat pies, sausage rolls and hot dogs are all traditional dishes in Australian school shops. But as the nation pays more attention to children’s health, healthier foods have started to find their way onto school menus.

Many schools have used a traffic light system. The sale of red-labelled(标签) foods, including pastries, chocolate and soft drinks, is served only twice a week. Healthier green-labelled foods such as sushi, sandwiches, corn and watermelon, however, are available every day.

In some schools, students have a choice of up to 89 foods to choose from, including popcorn and rice.

South Africa

Most of South Africa’s schools do not serve meals at all. Classes end at 1:30 p.m. and students get their own lunches. Many students bring food from home, usually sandwiches.

Fast food and fried food sell the best among students, which has led to a rise in obesity among children. But as more people began to realize the fact that being too fat may cause different diseases, some schools in towns have led the way towards better nutrition(营养). Now students at these schools are provided with lunches of porridge() with vegetables, such as cabbages, onions, beans, carrots and tomatoes.

1.A 2.D 3.B 4.C 【解析】 试题分析:文章讲述了几个国家为学生提供的午餐情况。 1. 推理判断题。根据United States部分的School lunches must also provide at least one-third of the daily dietary allowances (定量) of protein, vitamin A, vitamin C, iron, calcium, and calories.可知,美国学校的午餐必须提供至少1/3的日常膳食的蛋白质、维生素A、维生素C、铁、钙和热量,也就是营养是足够的,故选A。 2. 猜测词义题。根据Fast food and fried food sell the best among students, which has led to a rise in obesity among children.可知,快餐和油炸食品在孩子们中卖的最好,而这些导致了孩子们超重。故选D。 3. 主旨大意题。这篇短文主要介绍了世界上几个主要国家的学校为孩子提供的午餐,故B项“学校提供的食物,国与国不同”概括了文章的主要意思。故选B。 4. 推理判断题。根据第一段So what do students of your age eat for lunch at school?及下文描述,可知本文主要是写给孩子们的,故选C。 【名师点睛】 猜测词义题解题技巧在阅读中我们经常会遇到许多生词。事实上,阅读材料中的每个词与它前后的词语或句子甚至段落都有联系。我们可以利用语境(各种已知信息)推测、判断某些生词的词义,最常见的就是利用上下文语境、常识和语法关系推断词义。5.猜测词义题。根据前一句Fast food and fried food sell the best among students,可知快餐和油炸食品会导致肥胖。D正确。 考点:考查文化类阅读
