For example, in our school snacks are forbidden. Lets see how the students see this rule.Kate: I think its good for students not to bring snacks to school because most of snacks are unhealthy. Some snacks can cause illnesses like cancer. And the food in our school is enough for us. Maybe its not delicious. But its much healthier than snacks. Also, most of us dont want to be so fat. If we eat a lot of snacks, we will probably get fatter and fatter. The school has milk, eggs, bread, fruits and so on. What else do we want?Vicky: I think bringing some fruits should be allowed. Fruits can give us lots of energy and water.Karen: I think the teachers should tell the students what kind of food is not allowed. They should not say no to all kinds of food. We are growing now, so we need lots of energy. We may always feel hungry. What can we do when we are hungry? The school restaurants dont offer biscuits at any time during the day, so we need to bring some biscuits. Also, the fruits offered by our school are not fresh and even rotten(烂的), so I prefer to eat fruits that I bring to school myself.Mr smith:When a rule is set, there must be some reasons. Why are snacks forbidden in our school? As some students say, snacks are not good for our health. Of course, we should be told what kind of food is not allowed. Are fruits and biscuits snacks? We can ask the head teacher in a polite way and get a certain answer. I dont think it is a good idea to break the rule by bringing snacks to school in a secret way.根据短文内容，回答下面问题。 41. How does Kate like snacks?_42. What food does Vicky mainly talk about?_43. Why does Karen think they need to bring some biscuits to school?_44.
