阅读下面的短文，选择正确答案。

In the UK，most children have their lunches at school，but in some schools，parents can choose what their children eat．The children can have a school dinner—a hot，cooked meal； or they can take a packed lunch with them，which usually includes cold food like sandwiches．

Often parents know what their children want．Cath，a mother of three children，told us，“My children have packed lunches because they say they hate school dinners．So I make three packed lunches every morning.”

However，another mother，Susan，made a different choice．She said，“My daughters have always had school dinners．I think they probably get healthier food at school than a few sandwiches I make for them.”

But how healthy are school dinners？Kaz，a father，thought poorly of them．He said，“Fizzy drinks were offered and I think there were a lot of chips.”

Jamie Oliver spent a year working in a school kitchen．He was worried about the unhealthy food which included burgers，pizzas and chips．So he tried to cook healthy food such as good stews and curries for the children instead．

So Jamie improved the school dinners，and trained the dinner ladies to cook healthy food in that school．Then he advised the government to improve school food across the country．And it seems that the changes have begun．

Anna，a pupil，told us，“We used to have a fast food window where you got chips and coke，but they stopped that this year．There's a salad restaurant，which is good，so it's healthier than it was.”

参考译文

在英国，大多数孩子在学校吃午饭，但在某些学校，家长可以选择孩子吃什么。孩子们可以吃学校的饭菜——热热的刚烧出来的饭菜；也可以自带打包好的午餐，一般包括三明治这样的冷餐。

通常情况下，父母知道孩子们想要什么?？故歉鋈龊⒆拥哪盖?，她告诉我们：“我的孩子吃打包午餐，因为他们说讨厌学校的饭菜。所以我每天早上都要给他们准备三份打包好的午餐?！?/p>

然而，另一位母亲苏珊的选择却不同。她说：“我女儿一直吃学校的饭。我觉得，她们在学校吃的饭很可能比我准备的几份三明治更有利健康?！?/p>

但学校的饭菜真的有利健康吗？一位叫凯兹的父亲不太看好。他说：“端上来的是冒泡泡的饮料，而且我觉得炸土豆片也太多了?！?/p>

詹米·奥利弗在学校的厨房工作过一年。他担心的不健康食品包括汉堡、比萨和炸土豆片。因此，他想为孩子们做一些健康食品，比如好吃的炖菜和咖喱。

于是詹米改进了学校的食谱，并训练厨娘们烧制健康食品。后来他还建议政府在全国范围内改善学校的饮食。似乎变化已经来临。

安娜是一名学生，她告诉我们：“过去我们常到快餐窗口买炸土豆片和可乐，但今年他们停止这样做了。新开了一家沙拉餐厅，这很好，它比过去健康了。”
