Zhang Zhanliang comes from Yingtan, Jiangxi. He is a head teacher of a village school here. It's a very small school and there are only 25 students there. Most of the students' parents work away from home. These students live with their grandparents.
When Zhang finds his students' lunches are not so good, he wants to do something for them. He begins to cook for his students. Every morning, he gets up early to buy vegetables and meat, He begins to make the meal (一顿饭) at about 2 pm, so the students can have it when school is over, around4p. m. He makes different kinds of meals because he wants his students to be heather (健康的)
Cooking makes Zhang and his students close. "'Every day they come to me and ask what they will have, " says Zhang." They like to spend time with me and talk to me" After class he students always run to help Zhang cook.
There is only one problem: Zhang cooks on the playground. "1 don't like rainy days because can't cook those days," says Zhang. ""I hope I can have a kitchen at school. "
Zhang's dream comes true after the government (政府) hears about his story. The government makes a big kitchen for the school. Zhang is happy that his students can have meals at school every day.
