10月23日中午12时整，随着下课铃声的响起，恩施市沙地乡初级中学宁静的校园顿时闹腾开来，各个班级的孩子纷纷拿起饭盒跑出教室，笑闹着向食堂方向奔去。

　　沙地乡初级中学的新食堂还未竣工，临时的食堂虽然有些简陋，但解决了该校920名学生的一日三餐。记者在现场看到，当天孩子们的午餐有米饭、胡萝卜炒瘦肉、炒白菜和大骨汤。该校9年级6班学生李天爱吃得很香，这顿午餐，他仅仅花1元钱买了米饭，另外3元菜钱全部由国家出。

The sand township primary school new dining room is not finished,Temporary dining room although some humble,But solve the 920 students in the school of the three meals a day.Reporters on the scene saw,The children have rice for lunch/Carrot Fried lean/Fried cabbage and big bone soup.The school and grade 6 class LiTianAi eat very sweet,This lunch,He just takes 1 yuan bought rice,Another 3 yuan food money by all the country out.

　　据悉，这3元免费午餐属国家农村义务教育学生营养改善计划，该计划自2011年秋季学期开始正式启动，中央财政按照每生每天3元的标准，为试点地区农村义务教育阶段学生提供营养膳食补助。试点范围包括680个县（市）约2600万在校生。我州8县市均在列。

It is reported,This 3 yuan free lunch which belongs to the national rural compulsory education students nutrition improvement plan,The plan since the 2011 fall semester started formally initiated,The central government in accordance with each birth every 3 yuan standard,Pilot area for rural compulsory education stage provide students with nutrition meal allowance.The scope includes 680 county(city)About 26 million students.I state eight counties are listed.

　　2011年9月22日，这一天让李天爱记忆犹新。当天，沙地乡初级中学营养改善计划正式启动，当天的午餐，李天爱只花了1元钱，就吃到了两菜一汤。而过去，李天爱每天中午在学校食堂买饭吃需要4元钱，“菜比较少，勉强能吃饱。”他说，如今他每餐仅花1元钱买饭，就能免费吃上两菜一汤，而且菜里的肉很多，既吃得饱，又吃得舒服，这让他开心不已。

September 22, 2011,This day let LiTianAi fresh.The day,The sand township primary school nutrition improvement plan official start,The day's lunch,LiTianAi took only 1 yuan,Eat to two vegetables a soup.And over the past,LiTianAi at noon every day in the school dining room to buy rice to eat need 4 yuan,"Food less,Can barely feed."He said,Now he consumes only spend 1 yuan to buy rice,Can eat free two vegetables a soup,And the dish of meat a lot,Both eat satisfied,And eat comfortable,It makes him happy unceasingly.

　　李天爱的家庭并不富裕，父亲是建筑工人，母亲在家务农，家距学校15公里的他每周除了50元生活费外，来回还要20元车费，这些开支对一个普通的农村家庭而言，并不算轻松。以前，一周50元的生活费虽然够李天爱吃饭，但他想节约点钱买学习用品，所以有时中午他并未买4元一餐的饭菜，而是在小卖部买一包方便面解决问题。李天爱说：“没有免费午餐的时候，我身边不少同学都是这样，都没有吃午餐的习惯。”

LiTianAi family is not rich,Father is a construction worker,Mother at home soil,Home from school 15 kilometers of his weekly in addition to 50 yuan living expenses,Back and forth to 20 yuan fares,These expenses for a normal of rural families,Isn't easy.before,A week 50 yuan living expenses while LiTianAi enough to eat,But he wanted to save some money to buy school supplies,So sometimes noon he didn't buy four yuan a meal meal,But in the shop to buy a packet of instant noodles to solve the problem.LiTianAi said:"No free lunch,My side many students is such,Have the habit of eating lunch."

　　该校校长黄志勇也称，以前学校吃午餐的学生只有70%左右，还有部分学生中午的确是买方便面等小吃解决午餐问题。

The school's headmaster, HuangZhiYong also called,Before the school lunch students only 70% or so,There are some students at noon is really buy instant noodles, snacks to solve problems for lunch.

　　这些难题都在2011年下半年得到了解决。当年9月，恩施市正式启动农村义务教育阶段学生营养改善计划，沙地乡初级中学提早准备，请厨师、买设备……9月22日，该校营养改善计划正式开餐。孩子们中午每人只需掏1元钱买米饭，就可享受两菜一汤全免费的午餐待遇。

All these problems in the second half of 2011 solved.The September,Enshi "rural compulsory education stage officially launched students nutrition improvement plan,The sand township primary school prepared ahead of time,Please cook/Buy equipment……On September 22,The school nutrition improvement plan officially open meal.The children noon each cut only 1 yuan money to buy rice,Can enjoy two vegetables a soup all free lunch treatment.

　　同时，为了学生健康成长，沙地乡初级中学还规定每周每天的菜品必须翻新，并合理搭配。另外，和往常不一样的是，过去学生花3元钱吃午餐，其中还包括厨师工资等费用，但现在该校则是用这3元钱到市场上买菜，厨师的工资等费用则算在学校公用经费里。这就保证了3元钱用到了实处，让学生真正受了益。

At the same time,In order to the healthy growth of the students,The sand township primary school also provides weekly daily food must be renovated,And reasonable collocation.In addition,And the difference is,The past students spend 3 yuan to eat lunch,Including the cook wages and other fees,But now the school is use the 3 yuan to buy vegetables in the market,The cook salary expenses included in the school in public funds.It ensures that the 3 yuan use the effect,Let the students really received the profit.

　　沙地乡初级中学条件简陋，没有餐厅，孩子们只能在教室吃饭，调皮的他们边吃边闹，校园里到处充满了欢声笑语。“孩子们吃饱吃好比什么都好，我相信国家这个政策是起步，未来肯定会全免。”校长黄志勇的话代表了众多家长的心声。

The sand township primary school in primitive conditions,No restaurant,The children can only eat in the classroom,Naughty they ate and make,The campus is full of laughter."The children have enough to eat like what all good,I believe that the country this policy is started,The future will certainly is totally free."The headmaster HuangZhiYong word represents many parents heart.

　　我们也坚信，从中央到地方，各方都还在努力，不久的将来，更多有关孩子的福音将会到来。

We also believe that,From central to local levels,All parties is still working on,The near future,More about the child's Gospel will come.
