五、阅读理解。
Have you ever eaten anything that you grew in your own garden? Many people have not had the pleasure of this experience. Alice Waters, the owner of Chez Panisse Restaurant, set out to change all that for a special group of students at Martin Luther King Junior Middle School in Berkeley, California.
Waters worked with the school's principal (校长), Neil Smith, to create a cooking and gardening programme at school. Waters believes in the importance of people knowing where their food comes from. She also believes that there is a strong relationship between food, health and the environment. She wanted to show children the pleasure in gardening and in preparing the foods that they grew. She wanted to teach them that a healthy body and a healthy environment go hand in hand.
______ She firstly made a plan with an engineer. Teachers, students and community volunteers helped her turn a parking area into a garden. At the same time, renovation(整修) was begun to turn an old cafeteria(自助餐厅) into a kitchen where students could prepare foods and share meals with their teachers.
In 1994, the first crops were planted. Every year since then, new crops are evaluated(评价) to make sure that they are best suited for the environment and the needs of the school.
Students have found that they look forward to the time they spend in the garden each week.
They have learnt how to grow and harvest. They have learnt about the life cycles of various plants.
