Ask any group of teenagers in the UK what they most like to eat, and foods like pizzas, pasta, burgers and chips are always mentioned. Many young people would probably also list the local fast-food restaurant as their favorite place.
But what teenagers like to eat is not necessarily what they should eat. For a growing body, eating foods with plenty of calcium(鈣), such as milk, yoghurt and cheese, is important because calcium is essential for the development of healthy, strong bones(骨頭).Similarly, foods that are rich in iron(鐵) are good for developing bodies, so it’s good for them to eat red meat, bread and green vegetables.
Life habits can be developed during our teenage years, so it is greatly important that young people are educated about what foods are good. In 2005, in order to change eating habits and open teenagers’ minds to new tastes, a cook named Jamie Oliver started a “Feed Me Better” project. He worked with teachers and cooks in a number of schools across the UK to provide more healthy school meals. Although some teenagers and parents refused to have a try at first, the project was generally a huge success. The newspapers wrote articles about him and a TV program showed his visits to the schools.
No one expects to end the teenage love with fast and junk food, but, hopefully, if projects like “Feed Me Better” continue to give out the right messages, more young people will understand the importance of eating healthily.
根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容回答問題
小題1:What problem do teenagers in the UK have?
小題2:Why did Jamie Oliver start a “Feed Me Better” project?
小題3:Please list out three healthy food according to the passage.

What do you think of the most important inventions in the world? The TV? The printing? The telephone? Or the computer? A report shows that they are not the only important inventions. Here are three other important inventions.
One of the simplest(最簡單的) inventions is the toilet(沖水式馬桶). Before toilets, waste ran into rivers from people’s houses. Illnesses were common in big cities, and it was often difficult to find clean drinking water.
Animal food is another important invention. Before the invention, most animals were killed(殺死) every autumn because there was not enough food for them in winter.  After hay (干草) became a kind of common animal food, animals could live through the long winter. The third great invention is glasses. Glasses help people read, write and do “close work” after the age of 45. Without glasses, the world would be difficult for the people above 45.
