B
Can you believe a group of teenagers spent three months on a special cooking project? Sarah, Jake, Emily, and David, all aged between 14 and 16, took part in a unique activity that combined(结合了) their love for food and helped others.
During these three months, the teenagers created countless heartwarming moments. They visited local farmers' markets to pick fresh ingredients, learned traditional cooking skills from elderly chefs, and cooked delicious meals for homeless shelters. These experiences mattered a lot because Sarah, the team leader, was about to move to a new city with her family because of her father's new job. She wanted to make a lasting impact on her community before leaving, and this cooking project was the perfect way to do it. When Sarah told the group about her upcoming move, Jake said, “We have to make these months count and do something really meaningful together.”
In early 2024, the four teenagers got permission(许可) from their schools to take a short break from regular classes. They spent weekends and after-school hours planning the project. They reached out to local restaurants for support, borrowed cooking equipment(设备) from their homes, and even created a simple website to share their cooking stories and recipes. As for their studies, they made a plan to study English and maths every evening, while using the cooking project as a chance to learn about business, communication, and teamwork during the day.
Every day of the project witnessed(见证) the teenagers' growth. Jake, who used to be shy, became more confident when communicating with suppliers(供应商). Emily learned how to manage time better between cooking and studying. The group's friendship grew stronger. One day, when David asked Sarah how she felt about leaving, Sarah replied, “This project has made me realise that distance doesn't matter. We've built something here that will always connect us, just like the flavors(味道) in our dishes bring people together. And who knows, maybe we can continue this project online even when I'm away.” With a determined look, David nodded and said “★”
