21、   Do teenagers in small villages do chores at home? How about the teenagers in big cities? Here is a survey. We asked 4,000 teenagers in China several questions. Half of them come from big cities like Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou. The others are from small villages. We made a diagram（图表） of the result of our survey. Let’s have a look at it.

We found out that teenagers from small villages do more chores than those from big cities. Maybe it is because they live a harder life. Our advice to parents in big cities is that parents should give their children some chores to do. Doing chores teaches teenagers to take care of themselves.

22、Gao Defu, 10, is a student in a primary school in a small village in Guizhou. He used to go hungry or have only an ear of corn for lunch at noon. But now, Gao and his classmates have better food and vegetable dishes for free every day, thanks to the free lunch program.

The program was started by Deng Fei, a journalist at the Phoenix Weekly (《凤凰周刊》). Early this year, Deng met Xiao Yu, a primary school teacher from Guizhou, and was told that students in Xiao’s school didn’t have lunch to eat. Instead, they drank water to lessen their hunger.

Deeply shocked, Deng decided to do something for kids in the poor areas. He posted a message on his microblog (微博) saying he wanted to build a canteen (食堂) at Xiao’s school. The message soon got the support and attention (注意) of tens of thousands of people around the country. In March, some 500 reporters, along with a dozen news organizations and charity funds (慈善基金), finally set up the free lunch program.

Local teachers and foundation workers calculated (计算) that one lunch for one child cost 3 yuan. People can donate for a meal, a month’s worth of meals, or a year’s worth of meals for children on the Internet by going to http://www.mianfeiwucan.org.

According to the China Development Research Foundation (基金会) , there are about 23 million resident students (住宿生) in central and western rural areas. Many of them come from poor families and can’t afford nutritious lunches. Now, schools with kids that can’t afford lunch can apply for help through the free lunch program’s official website.

In half a year, the program has raised more than 16 million yuan, providing free lunches for poor students in 77 schools.
