Let the chicken live

I wanted to make my mark as the new food-service officer at a recruit training center. The menu was loaded with red meat, so I devised a new one to reduce cholesterol（胆固醇）. I substituted chicken for beef, and awaited comments from the suggestion box.

The first one summed up the recruits' feelings. It read simply,″Let the chicken live.″

我在新兵训练中心当上后勤服务长官时,想留下一些功绩。因为菜单上都是红肉，所以我设计了一个新的菜单，用鸡肉来代替牛肉，以减少胆固醇。我等待着来自意见箱的评价。

第一个意见总结出了新兵们的感觉，写得很简单：“让鸡活着吧。”
