not fit or strong enough.
Lingling: He'll need to take a lot of exercise—go running or do weight training.
Daming: So what happened about the camera, Tony?
Tony: Don't talk to me about that! I think my dad guessed that I nearly lost it at the school
dance. I'm not allowed to use it any more.
Daming: But we need some photos of the next basketball match. Are you going to buy a
camera?
Tony:
Betty: Unlikely! It's my father who gives me my pocket money, and he's the person whose camera I nearly lost. Hi, everyone. Guess what! I've just bumped into the head teacher. He said he
wanted to see me.
He wants to talk about New Standard.
He doesn't look like someone whose fitness and health interest him very much! Daming: What's up? Betty: Betty: Daming: Ask him if he wants to write something about staying healthy.
Daming: Good luck, Betty.

Feed Me Better
Jamie Oliver is a young cook who wants to improve school dinners. In 2005 he went back to school to see what the children were eating.
Jamie asked the children what their meals were like. "We have hamburgers and chips, or pizza," they told him, "and sometimes here is fruit, but we prefer ice cream." Jamie thought the menu was terrible. The children were eating junk food, and it was problem. Junk food isn't just bad for the body. Children whose midday meals were unhealthy were difficult to teach in he afternoon. Teachers said that children behaved very badly after lunch.
When Jamie took vegetables into class, the children didn't know what they were. Jamie realised that the children didn't know about healthy food. Then he talked to the people who worked in the kitchens. He found out that they didn't know enough about food and health, and they didn't have very much money to spend.
He decided to teach the cooks and the children about healthy food. It was hard work! He cooked healthy meals for them including meat, rice, pasta and vegetables, but a lot of the teenagers refused to eat the new food. Jamie showed them why the junk food wasn't healthy. In the end, when Jamie persuaded them to try his cooking, they liked it!
Jamie talked to the government. He told them they needed to ban junk food from schools, train the cooks, educate the children and pend more money on school dinners. A lot of parents, teachers and children agreed with him. The newspapers wrote articles about him, and a TV programme showed his visits to the school. Jamie is a cook whose ideas are changing school dinners all over Britain.
