Luo Zhijie, 14, usually has lunch with his classmates in their dining hall at Tangwai Junior High School in Shanghai. But the other day, a newcomer joined them — the school principal (校长). They talked about the food the dining hall offers and had a nice talk.
Many students across China are also eating with their principals these days. The Chinese government made a new food safety regulation (安全规定) to make sure that students eat better and safer food in schools. The regulation started on April 1, 2019. It asks those who run schools to eat with students in their dining halls. Parents can also join in.
Luo’s school has some seats for school managers (管理者) to sit on and they can eat with students. After talking with the students, the managers have to write reports and give good ideas to the workers in their dining hall. “It helps us offer healthier and tastier food to students,” said the principal of Luo’s school. After eating with his students, he found that the food in their dining hall wasn’t very good. He also found that his students ate lots of meat and few vegetables. “We are thinking about how to change (改变) the dishes and make our students eat more healthily,” he said.
Liu Haoxuan, 14, from Beijing Dayu School, said he found some changes after the regulation went into his school. “Some of the unpopular dishes are gone. Some of the other dishes taste better!” he said. “I hope our school keeps on changing the dishes.”

【推荐2】You might feel full after having a big meal. But you may actually suffer from“hidden hunger”. This means that what you eat may fill your stomach, but it's not giving you the proper nutrition (营养) that your body needs.
This happens when food lacks the vitamins (维生素) and minerals (矿物质). They are what people need to keep healthy, according to the World Health Organization (WHO).
At present, “hidden hunger”affects 2 billion people worldwide. These people include 300 million people in China. It is most commonly seen among children and teenagers. It can also result in a bad immune system (免疫系统), blindness or even death, China News Service reported.
Many Chinese people don't get enough iron (铁), calcium (钙), vitamin A and vitamin D. One main reason is that agricultural products don't have much of these nutrients. Over 40 percent of China's farmland is losing its vitamins and minerals, lowering the nutritional value of the crops that grow on it, according to Xinhua.
Many of the processed foods that people enjoy eating today, such as chips, burgers and cookies, have made the situation worse. Vitamins and minerals are easily lost when these foods are processed, People's Daily noted.
In response, China's government has created several action plans to improve public health. It also develops and promotes nutritious foods.
Eating more fresh nutrition-rich food like vegetables, whole grains and milk can help us keep healthy. For vegetables like carrots and broccoli (西兰花), boiling and steaming, can better preserve (保留) their nutrition when compared with frying them, CNN suggests.

In your life, there are a lot of people around you. They are your relatives, neighbors, friends or classmates. Sometimes you get along well with them, but sometimes don't. What can you do when someone hurts you? Most people may be angry or even fight with him. But it's not a good idea. You'd better forget all this and forgive(宽恕,原谅) him.
Maybe it's not easy for you to do that, but it's possible. Please remember: Keep a good mood, and you will keep healthy. Staying angry with others, in fact, means letting others mistakes treat yourself unfairly. How can you forgive others?
First, think of something pleasant and try to get yourself happy. Second, don't wait others to say sorry to you. If anyone hurts you, he won't say sorry to you.
He may just want to hurt you or just don't see things the same way. Third, try to see things in others' shoes. You can understand their minds better and make yourself a little happier.
At last try to know yourself very well. Whose mistakes caused that, yours or others'? If it's your fault, try to say sorry to them. If it isn't, smile at the thing.
