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 them.”

11．Who joined Luo Zhijie and his classmates for lunch?

A．Their parents.   

B．Their school manager.   

C．Workers in their dining hall.

12．What is the new food safety regulation about?

A．Students should eat well and healthily.

B．Parents have to eat with their children at school.

C．The school principals must have talks with their students.

13．What can we learn from the passage?

A．Luo dislikes the dishes in his school’s dining hall.    

B．Many students are afraid to talk with the principal of their school.

C．Some students in Luo’s school don’t have good eating habits.  

14．The underlined word (画下划线的单词) “them” means (意思是) “_____”.

A．The changes in Liu’s school.
