Over 30,000 years ago, people from northern Asia went to America. Today we can tell these people Indians.
The Indians went to America because the weather began to change. Northern Asia became very cold. Everything froze. They had to move or they would die. How did the first Indians go to America? They walked!
Later Columbus found the New World in 1492. At first, only a few Europeans followed. They traveled to America in boats. For the next 300 years, about 500,000 people went there. Then the number grew very quickly. From 1815 to 1915, over 32,000,000 Europeans left their countries for the United States. The biggest groups went from Germany and Italy. These Europeans spoke many different languages. Most of them took almost no money. They went to America so they could find a better life.

Most schools are trying hard to improve their lunch programs and they want to offer the best food they can.
Even if your school provides healthy options(选择)，you may still want to have something delicious outside.
How do you take control? Take a packed lunch to school!
Here are the four reasons to pack your lunch and snacks at least twice a week.
Control  Have you ever waited in the lunch line only to find when you get to the front that you don't like what they're serving?
Variety  If you're eating the same food all the time , your body probably feels ready for a change. Packing lunch a couple of times a week means you can enjoy some favorites that you might not find at every school.
Money Serving Packing healthy snacks so that you needn’t go out for a fast-food lunch, chocolate or a soda! If so, you will save much money. And you can buy something you need.
Warm Feeling   Remember when your mom or dad used to pack your lunch? Pack a lunch for yourself, maybe that is your favorite healthy food.
Whether you pack or eat in the cafeteria(自助食堂)，what's important is that you make right choices. If you are worried that cafeteria doesn't offer enough healthy choices, try to make changes. Ask a teacher or someone in food service for advice on hoe to get started.
