Now some women are spending a weekend at Mother’s Camp(營地). There, husbands and children are not allowed. Why would a woman want to take a vacation without her family? Some women say they need time to be alone.
At Mother’s Camp a woman has room to herself. She can sleep, read or watch TV, and no one will bother her. No children will ask,“Mom, what’s for dinner?” No husband will say, “Oh, dear, I can’t find any clean socks.”In fact almost 50% of women in the United States work outside the home. Many of them work full-time and then come home to a second job-taking care of their homes and families. These working women say one of their biggest problems is housework.
In the United States, working wives do about 75% of the housework. Many of their husbands say they want to help. But then they burn the rice or they can’t find the pans. They ask so many questions that their wives decide it is easier to do the job themselves.
Some women go to Mother’s Camp just to get a break from housework. For two days they don’t cook, they don’t clean, they don’t look after their children and husbands. What do they do? They enjoy warm, sunny weather, walking, swimming or boating in a clear blue lake and sing songs around the campfire. They relax away from home. They have a really wonderful vacation at Mother’s Camp.

Sixteen years ago a boy gave me an important gift. It was a smile.
It was the early autumn of my first year at a middle school,and my old school was far away. As a result,no one knew who I was. I was very lonely,and afraid to speak to anyone.
Every time I heard the other students talking and laughing,I felt my heart break. I couldn't talk with anyone about my problems.
Then one day,when my classmates were talking happily with their friends,I was sitting at my desk unhappily as usual. At that moment,a boy entered the classroom. I didn't know who he was. He passed by me and then turned back. He looked at me,with a smile.
Suddenly,I felt the touch of something bright and friendly. It made me feel happy and warm. That smile changed my life. I started to talk with other students and made friends. Day by day,I became closer to everyone in my class. The boy with the lucky smile has become my best friend now.
One day I asked him why he had smiled,but he couldn't remember doing so!
It doesn't matter because all the dark days have gone. I believe that the world is what you think it is. If you think it is lonely,you might always be alone. So smile at the world and it will smile back.

Practicing yoga(瑜伽) is a helpful, popular way to keep fit. It has many followers around the world. There are many kinds of yoga. You may have heard of “hot yoga” before. Now, in India, a new kind of yoga, water yoga, is becoming more and more popular among the local people.
In the city of Agra, people practice yoga in water. It is more difficult to practice yoga in water than on land. But practicing yoga in water can be good for your flexibility (靈活性).
Harish Chaturvedi, a lawyer, teaches people water yoga for free—even the poor people can learn from him. “Water yoga can become more popular than other kind of yoga, because the body does not get tired so quickly,” he said. “Everybody can learn to swim, but if they learn yoga at the same time, they will never feel tired.”
“The level of Oxygen(氧氣) is very high in water, and you will not have any breathing problem,” he added.
Harish believes that water yoga really helps people to keep away from illness. He mainly trains children. He has classes at the swimming pool of a local sports room regularly. Many children are interested in it and come to team from him.
“Harish is very good at performing yoga in water,” said Sudhir Narayan, a water yoga student. “He is teaching children free of cost and that is a very good thing.”

Think of life as a game in which you are playing with five balls in the air. You name them work, family, health, friends and spirit (精神) and you keep all of them in the air. You will soon understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce (彈跳) back.
But the other four balls, family, health, friends and spirit, are made of glass. If you drop one of these, they will be broken. They will never be the same. You must understand that and try to have balance in your life. How?
Don’t look down on your worth by comparing yourself with others. It is because we are different and each of us is special.
Don’t let other people set goals for you. Only you know what is best for yourself.
Don’t give up when you still have something to give. Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.
Don’t be afraid of difficulties. It is by taking chances that we learn how to be brave.
Don’t shut love out of your life by saying it’s impossible. The quickest way to receive love is to give it; the fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly (緊緊地); the best way to keep love is to give it wings.
Don’t run through life so fast that you forget not only where you’ve been, but also where you are going.
Don’t be afraid to learn. Knowledge is a treasure (珍寶) you can always carry easily.
Don’t use time or words carelessly. You can’t get them back. Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery (秘密), and today is a gift; that’s why we call it “the present”. Life is not a competition, but a trip, step by step.
【小題1】The passage tells us not to _________ because everyone is special.
A.be afraid of difficulties | B.be afraid to learn |
C.run through life so fast | D.compare yourself with others to look down on your worth |
A.Nothing is possible | B.If we don’t give up, there is always hope |
C.You should learn to give up | D.Although you try, nothing will change. |
A.Because time is too expensive. | B.Because time never returns. |
C.Because we are too poor. | D.Because times will get back. |
A.lose your own treasure that you can always carry easily |
B.lose love by holding it too tightly |
C.forget not only where you’ve been, but also where you are going. |
D.not afraid of the difficulties |

Fashion is a term commonly used to describe a style of clothing worn by most people of a country. A fashion usually keeps popular for 1-3 years and then is replaced by another fashion. Even though there are a lot of changes in fashion, most people do not easily hope for the changes.
Nowadays more and more young people prefer following the fashion. On this phenomenon(現(xiàn)象), different people have different opinions. It is held that one should follow the fashion so as not to be looked down or seem strange. But it is also held that one should have his or her own judgement(判斷).
Those who hold the first opinion think that society is progessing and one should get used to the changes. In their opinions, if everyone always follows the old fashion, there won’t be any change and naturally there won’t be much progress. However, those who hold the second view think that one shouldn’t follow the fashion without having his or her own judgement and characters.
As for me, I agree with the second opinion. Of course, it’s good for people to keep up with the fashion, but this is not to say that people should follow the fashion blindly(盲目地). If all the people follow the same fashion, there will be no variety and the whole society will be boring.
【小題1】. The second paragraph mainly tells us ________.
A.what the fashon is about |
B.different people have different opinions about the fashion |
C.whether one should follow the fashion or not |
D.more and more young people prefer following the fashion |
A.One should follow the fashion so that they won’t be looked down. |
B.One should follow the fashion so that society is progressing. |
C.One should follow the fashion so that people will have their own judgement. |

A.keep up with the same fashion |
B.be against the fashion |
C.say nothing about the fashion |
D.follow the fashion by our own judgement |
A.Hope For Fashion | B.Have Your Own Judgement |

Sarah ran in, shouting, “Look what I found!” Over the top of the paper I was reading; came a terrible thing that caused me to jump. It was a snake skin found in our garden.
“Isn’t it beautiful?” said my seven-year-old daughter.
I opened my eyes widely and looked at the snake skin in fear(恐懼地). I didn’t think it was beautiful, but I learned never to appear nonchalant(冷漠的)with children. Everything they see for the first time is important to their sense of beauty; they see only excellence in the world.
“Why does it do this?” Sarah asked.
“Snakes shed(蛻) their skins because they need to renew themselves,” I explained.
“Why do they need to renew(使更新) themselves?” Sarah asked.
“We often need to shed our skins, those coatings that we cover ourselves with,” I said to my daughter. “We leave some things and find other thing unwanted or unnecessary. This snake no longer needs this skin. It is probably too little for him, and he probably doesn’t think he looks as smart in it as he once did. ”
As we talked, I knew that she began to understand. Although she couldn’t understand clearly, she would know that renewal is part of progress; that we need to take a good look at ourselves, our rooms, schoolwork and spirit, and see what we need to keep and what we need to leave. I was careful to tell that this is a natural way, not one to be forced.
“Snakes don’t peel off their skins when they like them. “I explained. “It happens as a natural thing of their growth. ”
“I see, Dad,” said Sarah as she held the snake skin, and then ran off.
I hoped she would remember this; we need to throw some away because they are worthless or unnecessary. Then we can store them as memories in our deep hearts.
【小題1】Father jumped up when her daughter came to him with a snake skin because ______.
A.he didn’t want to read any more |
B.he was in great fear of it |
C.he wanted to praised her daughter |
D.he hated snakes |
A.his daughter didn’t want to listen to him at all |
B.he knew children saw only excellence in the world |
C.his daughter couldn’t follow him at all |
D.he wanted to teach everything to her |
A.the girl seemed to understand what her father said |
