Imagine this: your parents go away on business, but you have to stay at home alone. Would life be as easy as when your parents are around? Would it be a perfect holiday for you?

'”I can fill an empty stomach with tomato and egg soup, but that's all. I think many of my classmates are the same. We wouldn't know what to do, or how to look after ourselves," said Zheng Chenyu. "And I'd forget something important. I'd probably watch television and burn the soup. "

“As soon as I leave home, I'll learn to cook. But now parents do almost everything for us. We’re very lazy, "she said.

Most teenagers have only time for their homework. They don't learn any life skills until they go to college.

However, Sima Yige doesn't think so.

"I think I'd be all right. I wouldn't just eat sandwiches or fruit. I know how to cook, some sim­ple dishes because my mum showed me," the 13 - year - old boy said. In his opinion, many teen­agers depend too much on their parents, and there is much more to learn than cooking, like "tidying up your room or even dressing yourself properly."

For most teenagers it wouldn't be a holiday at all.

71. Why would Zheng Chenyu probably burn the soup?

    ________________________________________

72. When will Zheng Chenyu learn to cook?

75. Would life be as easy for teenagers living alone as when their parents are around?

     ________________________________________

71. Because he can’t cook anything else. 解析]綜合第一段可知他不會做其他的東西。

72. As soon as he leaves home. 解析:由原文第三段前兩句“As soon as I leave home, I'll learn to cook.”得出答案。

73.，他們直到上大學才學會生活的技能。解析:not---until---- 直到---才-----。

74. 過分依賴于 解析:too much 本意為“太多”, 在此為”太多依賴，過分的依賴”

75. No, it won’t.  解析:Would引導的一般疑問句的答語。
