英國小學(xué)生在午餐上沒有多少選擇的余地。

要么是父母準(zhǔn)備的飯盒，要么是他們在一個溫?zé)岬恼筒藛紊线x擇一兩個菜式。然而，中學(xué)學(xué)校允許學(xué)生自己選擇菜單。

過去，這導(dǎo)致了許多問題。2004年，一份名為《英國中學(xué)生的餐食》的調(diào)查顯示，許多學(xué)校提供不健康的菜單。舉例來說，一周四到五天里，76%的中學(xué)提供薯?xiàng)l和其他馬鈴薯油炸料理，而86%的中學(xué)提供高脂肪食物，比如漢堡包和炸雞塊。當(dāng)學(xué)校提供這樣的菜式時(shí)，大多數(shù)學(xué)生都會選擇食用。48%的學(xué)生選擇高脂肪的主菜，48%的學(xué)生選擇薯?xiàng)l或類似的菜式，24%的學(xué)生選擇蛋糕或松餅。水果、果汁、蔬菜和沙拉是最不受歡迎的菜式。

在2005年的電視節(jié)目《杰米的校餐配方》中，名廚杰米·奧利弗開始與校園廚師一起合作，為學(xué)生提供更健康的餐食。盡管最初受到了來自學(xué)生和家長的阻力，但形勢已經(jīng)開始逆轉(zhuǎn)。杰米發(fā)起的運(yùn)動就是使校餐的營養(yǎng)標(biāo)準(zhǔn)普遍提高的運(yùn)動之一。

最近的在線系統(tǒng)，如“父母支付”，在孩子們的學(xué)校飲食方面給予了更多的支配權(quán)。他們可以設(shè)置日常的開支限制，也可以準(zhǔn)確地知道孩子們每天買了些什么東西。

Word of the day： Campaign （n. / v.）

Campaign is both a noun and a verb. The noun campaign means an organised programme to change or influence something. A politician may have an election campaign， or a business may have a marketing campaign[營銷活動] to advertise their products. Jamie Oliver campaigned to get children eating healthier food. The word“campaign” comes from French and was used more than 500 years ago to talk about military[軍事的] battles.
