What foods are successful? Hamburgers and pizzas are popular. But instant noodles (方便面) have also become the world’s success. Now instant noodles are celebrating their 61st birthday!
Instant noodles were invented by a Japanese named Momofuku Ando. To find a way to make noodles last longer, Ando began experimenting (实验) in 1955 and three years later, he made the first bag of instant noodles.
Each year, 95 billion (十亿) bags of instant noodles are eaten around the world. In the UK, people call instant noodles “pot noodles”. University students like them a lot. During the first term at college, you may be given a gift bag that includes instant noodles. Instant noodles are cheap and easy to eat. But watch out! People may think you are lazy if you are an instant noodle lover.
The UN often sends instant noodles as part of its food aid (援助). This is because of their long life and high fat, which makes people feel full for longer time.
However, instant noodles aren’t healthy. They are high in fat and salt. Health experts say they are bad for us and we shouldn’t eat them too often.

We all know that recycling rubbish is very important. But sometimes it is not so convenient (方便的) when we can’t find a recycling bin anywhere.
Now a team of middle school students from North Dakota, US has solved that problem by designing(设计)the Recycling Bin app (应用程序).
This app encourages people to recycle. It provides users with a map of local recycling centres, and it allows them to save locations as favourites. Besides, this app also reminds users to recycle.
The group of nine sixth-graders is from STEM Centre Middle School. They came up with the idea as part of a school project for the Verizon Innovative App Challenge. Their school provided professional app training. It held a contest and gave Samsung tablets (三星平板电脑) as prizes.
The contest aims to develop interest in science, technology, engineering and Maths. In this contest, students present an app design that could solve a problem in their school or community. The nine students came up with the idea for the Recycling Bin when they saw a need for more recycling.
“We thought that this would really help a lot of people,” Jaden Hilkemann, 12, told Time For Kids.
They kept their design simple so that anyone could use it. Now the free Recycling Bin app has been put into use in the Google Play app store for Android phones or tablets.
“I was so excited when it showed up at the app store,” Seralyn Blake, 12, said. “A lot of people downloaded the app. It was pretty cool.”
