Months ago, the Chinese government allowed primary and high school students to have a spring or autumn break.

Now most Chinese students only have holidays in summer and winter. During the holidays, some students stay at home doing their homework. Others travel with their family. How do kids in the US and UK spend their holidays? Let's take a look.

US

* Summer holiday: mid-June — early September

* Christmas holiday: mid-December — early January

* Thanksgiving holiday: one week in late November

* Spring break: usually a 10-day holiday in mid-March

Summer camp is one of kids’ favorite places to go. There, they can make new friends. They can also take part in some interesting activities like archery (射箭) and sailing. This helps them learn teamwork.

Spring break can be a great time to travel. Middle school students usually travel with their parents. Beaches are one of their favorites.

UK

* Summer holiday: late July — September

* Christmas holiday: mid-December — early January

* Easter holiday: late March — mid-April

Why is music an important subject that every child should study?

First of all, music helps us when we are unhappy, and gives us pleasure when we are happy. There are many different types of music: slow and fast, serious and relaxing. We can choose the music to match our feelings. And second, music is fun. People enjoy playing drums (鼓) and using their energy!

Scientists say that music helps children with language learning. Singing simple songs is good for young children. Music improves the ear — and we know that children who have studied music can learn foreign languages more easily and pronounce (發(fā)音) them much better. Students who have learnt to play music are also better at maths. This is not surprising, as music is mathematical, with notes in order. Playing music with other people also teaches children to work together. People who can play musical instruments ( 樂(lè) 器 ) always have something they can do at a party. Older children who play in school orchestras (管弦樂(lè)隊(duì)) enjoy school more and do not drop out of school early.

You need a lot of practice to play an instrument, and it can be difficult to ask your child to spend hours at the piano or playing the guitar. So music practice should be a daily habit — for example, every day after school, but do not make the practice too long.

Parents should listen to their children playing and tell them that they enjoy it. Practice should also be fun. It is also a good idea to finish the practice with a piece of music the child likes, and so learning music will be a pleasant (愉快的) part of the day.

1.Which of the following can't music help children?

A.Learn languages. B.Learn maths.

C.Work together. D.Use energy.

2.How often should children practice playing an instrument according to the article?

A.Every day. B.Once a week.

C.Once a month. D.Twice a week.

3.What should parents do when their children are playing instruments?

A.Do housework. B.Play with them.

C.Give them advice. D.Listen to them playing.

4.Which of the following is TRUE according to this article?

A.Music can give us pleasure only when we are unhappy.

B.It's easy for parents to ask their children to play instruments.

C.It's good to finish music practice with a piece of music the child likes.

D.People who can play instruments always have nothing to do at a party.

5.What's the best title of this passage?

A.How to play an instrument B.Music helps the young

C.Learning music is pleasant D.Practice makes perfect

Nearly every parent says that we never grow up. In fact, we are maybe 16 or 17 years old. In their eyes, we are always little ones and always do wrong things. For example, when I need to stay at home alone, they always worry about me and my life without them.

Most parents always think that they have offered the best things they can to make their children live a comfortable life. They buy their children pretty clothes, cool shoes, expensive school things, and often a thousand-yuan-cost bike. They think that they have done everything that they can for their children. In return, they only want their children to get good results in the examinations.

But why their children still can’t understand them? Does it mean that they still want more material things? No. As a matter of fact, what they want is a true family. What does a true family mean? I think it means a place where we can hide ourselves from the cold world outside. From here, we can get warmth, we can get consolation ( 安 慰 ), and we can get happiness. And one important thing is that we should be stronger and more confident in the outside world because we know that we have a family.

So I think that parents should save their money and sit down to talk with their children to let them know that they have a true family, so the children and their parents could understand each other more and more. Then, no children will be regarded as little ones.

In Britain, people have a strange hobby. When there’s a Bank Holiday (法定假期) weekend, a certain kind of shop always gets very b1. , and it’s not what you might think — a clothes shop or a music shop. Many people go to DIY stores and garden centers instead of r2.at home.

Doing DIY is very popular in Britain and there are lots of TV programmes which show people h3. to do DIY projects. Some people just do some simple decorating — putting up wallpaper and painting walls. But there are all kinds of DIY projects that some people d4.to do, for example, putting in a new shower.

Unluckily, some people start doing a job b5.end in DIY disaster ( 災(zāi) 難 ).

For example, electrical things should be done by a special worker, but many people don’t care about this warning (警告) and put themselves in d6..

Gardening is also popular, and it is a good way to e7.the weather on a sunny Bank Holiday. But it’s not s8.easy as planting plants and doing some watering. More difficult work such as building a new garden or making some decorations can cause backache.

So why do people do it? Maybe they are so used to working that they aren’t very good at having fun. One thing is f 9.sure, though a lot of DIY or gardening projects will be started with the best plans, many of them may not get f10.. It’s still a long way for them to go.
