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 com 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(《鳳凰周刊》). 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(慈善機(jī)構(gòu)), finally set up the free lunch program.

Local teachers and foundation workers calculated 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(基金會(huì)), 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.

We know that many animals do not stay in one place. Birds, fish and other animals move from one place to another at a certain time. They move for different reasons: most of them move to find food more easily, but others move to get away from places that are too crowded.

When cold weather comes, many birds move to warmer places to find food. Some fishes give birth in warm water and move to cold water to feed. The most famous migration(遷移)is probably the migration of the fish, which is called "salmon". This fish is born in fresh water but it travels many miles to salt water. There it spends its life. When it is old, it returns to its birthplace in fresh water. Then it gives birth and dies. In northern Europe, there is a kind of mouse. They leave their mountain homes when they become too crowded. They move down to the low land. Sometimes they move all the way to the seaside, and many of them are killed when they fall Into the sea.

Recently, scientists have studied the migration of a kind of lobster(龍蝦). Every year, when the season of the bad weather arrives, the lobsters get into a long line and start to walk across the floor of the ocean. Nobody knows why they do this, and nobody knows where they go.

So, sometimes we know why humans and animals move from one place to another, but at other times we don't. Maybe living things just like to travel.
