摘要： From the passage, we can know that . A. the Kings lived a poor life B. King's wife was a clever woman, C. there was a foolish bird in the tree outside D. all the friends stayed for the roast bird B Life is like the four seasons. Now I am very old, but when I was young, it was the spring of my life. I was born, I played a lot, and then I started school. I learned many new things. Like a flower, I grew bigger every day. There were happy days and sorrowful days: some days the sun shone, and some days it didn't. In my twenties, I had a good job. I was strong and happy. Then I married and had a child. In those days, I didn't have much time to think. Every day I was busy and worked very hard. And so, I started to get some white hairs. The summer of my life passed quickly. Then the days got shorter. Leaves fell from the trees. My child was a university student, and then an engineer. My home was much quieter. I started walking more slowly. One day I stopped working. I had more time. I understood this was my autumn, a beautiful time when the trees change colour and give us delicious fruits. But the days kept getting shorter and colder. Winter has come. I am older and weaker. I know I do not have many days left, but I will enjoy them to the end.

It seems school children all over the world complain about their school food．Cherie Blair，the wife of Prime Minister Tony Blair，said that she would prepare a packed lunch for her son if school dinners do not improve. So what do students of your age eat for lunch at school?
Japan
High schools have canteens，which serve everything from noodles to rice，but not burgers and chips．Other children bring food from home such as cold rice balls，meat or fish，pickles and vegetables．
The United States
A typical menu from a US school is made up of a hamburger with fried potatoes or roast chicken，lettuce and pickles，fruit and cookies．School lunches must also provide at least one-third of the daily dietary
allowances(定量)of protein(蛋白质)，vitamin A．vitamin C，iron，calcium，and calories(卡路里)．
Australia
Meat pies，sausage rolls and hotdogs are all traditional dishes in Australian school shops．But as the nation pays more attention to children’s health，healthier foods have started to find their way onto school menus．
Many schools have used a traffic light system．The sale of red-labelled foods including pastries，chocolate and soft drinks，is served only twice a week．Healthier green-labelled foods such as sushi，sandwiches，corn and watermelon，however are served every day．
In some schools．students have a choice of up to 89 foods to choose from，including popcorn and rice．
South Africa
Most of South Africa’s schools do not serve meals at all．Classes end at 1：30 pm and students get their own lunches．Many students bring food from home，usually sandwiches．
Fast food and fried food sell the best among students，which has led to a rise in obesity among children．But as more people began to realize the fact that being too fat may cause different diseases，some schools in towns have led the way towards better nutrition(营养)．Now students at these schools are provided with lunches of porridge with vegetables，such as cabbages，onions，beans，carrots and tomatoes.

My friend’s grandfather came to America from Eastern Europe. After being processed (移民入境检查) at Ellis Island, he went into a cafeteria (自助餐厅) in Lower Manhattan to get something to eat. He sat down at a table and waited for someone to take his order. But nobody came to him. Later a woman with a plate full of food sat down opposite him and told him how a cafeteria worked.
“Start out at the end,” she said. “Just go along the line and pick out what you want. At the other end he’ll tell you how much you have to pay.”
“I soon learned that’s how everything works in America,” the grandfather told my friend. “Life is like a cafeteria here. You can get anything you want only if you are willing to pay the money. You can even get success, but you’ll never get it if you wait for someone to bring it to you. You have to get up and get it yourself.”
