Annual holidays have become a luxury and are no longer a staple of family life, according to government research.

A getaway of a week or more is no longer considered essential by many families and is often beyond their reach, said the analysis of what parents and children say they really need.Fashionable clothes for the children, expensive birthday parties and lots of toys are also on the list of luxuries families don’t have to have.Instead, recession-hit parents are thinking of the future, and the things they want for their children centre around learning to behave properly, good education and good health.

Their picture of what a family ought to have includes a space to eat together away from the television, plenty of fruit and vegetables, and bicycles so children can get exercise.

The breakdown of necessities and luxuries was prepared by researchers from the Department for Work and Pensions(DWP) who were trying to establish an up-to-date picture of what parents say they really need.

Their findings show how families have scaled down their expectations in the face of economic difficulties — how parents are now concentrating their attention and money firmly on the long-term interests of their children.Many believe that while it is vital for a family to do things together, day trips or weekend breaks are enough.

Spending on furniture or decorating the house was also considered luxurious, unless the state of the home was so bad it became difficult to invite visitors in.

Instead, researchers said: A family home should have an area where the family can eat together, not on their laps in front of a television.Families should be able to go on outings, overnight trips and possibly short holiday: the fact of being able to share these experiences is more important than the precise activity and its cost.

It can be inferred that ______________.

       A.a(chǎn) week or more holiday is considered beyond many families’ reach

       B.children hardly ever need fashionable clothes and lots of toys

       C.what a family should have is basic things that they must have

       D.a(chǎn)nnual holidays were once considered necessary and vital

In the opinion of most parents, _____________.

       A.families can watch TV together in order to keep up their relationship

       B.day trips or weekend breaks are enough for families to share experiences

       C.their expectations should be increased in the face of economic difficulties

       D.a(chǎn) week’s holiday is an essential minimum during the financial crisis

Which of the following is TRUE of the researchers from the DWP?

       A.They confirm many families still need at least a week away on holiday each year.

       B.They learn it is insignificant for a family to do things with each other regularly.

       C.They want to know what parents really need in the face of economic difficulties.

       D.They found spending on furniture or decorating the house was thought valuable.

We can conclude from the last paragraph____________.

       A.being able to share experiences is important for families

       B.a(chǎn) family needs at least a week away on holiday each year

       C.a(chǎn) family home should have a comfortable area to watch TV

       D.going on outings and overnight trips is wasting time for families

What does the author mainly discuss in the text?

       A.Cycling is very important for children’s health.

       B.Family holidays once a year have become a luxury.

       C.It is vital for parents to eat together with children.

       D.Parents are concerned with children’s future.

Dior was born in Normandy in 1905, and his family’s original plans for him included a career in the diplomatic service, but by the time he was twenty-three, with his parents’ money, he opened a small art gallery in Paris. By 1931, the money had been used up. Dior’s friends in the art gallery asked him to draw and he took his first step at designing and drawing. His first job was with Lucien Lelong from whom Dior learned his craft(手藝).

In February, 1947, Dior started the New Look in his first major Paris collection. He was backed by a famous textile producer, Boussac, who looked after the dollars, while Dior looked after the fashions. Dior knew nothing about cutting and sewing, but he was good at fashion design.

The New Look started an entirely different look to costume, with a tiny waist, a rounded shoulder and a shapely bust(胸圍), usually with a low-cut neckline and a long full skirt. To women who had lived through the war years, the femaleness of the New Look was a great success, for people were tired of the extremely plain, wartime restrictive fashions.

It is said that dresses by Dior were “constructed like buildings”, but young people were attracted to his design, and all over the western world, manufacturers plunged into(投入)the production of his new style. Dior’s revolutionary designs lighted up a whole cycle of fashion - rounded, gentle, feminine - a delight in elegance. A New kook House of Dior opened in 1948, followed by one in London. Considered as King of Couture (Women’s clothing) for years, the Dior Empire grew until it covered every country in the western world, and included furs, jewelry, perfumes, men’s wear and so on. Over 1,000 people worked at the Paris headquarters then.

His sudden death in 1957 when he was 52 years old did not stop the growth of the House of Dior. Even now, so many years after his death, his name is closely connected with fashion throughout the world, and indeed is one of the most recognized names in the world. His first great New Look, with its long skirts, was an expression of freedom in the late 1940s.

Which of the following designs is close to Dior’s?

According to the passage, in Dior’s life, he did not _________.

A. make creative fashion designs

    B. work in a diplomatic service

    C. learn craft as his first job

    D. open a New Look House

We can infer from the passage that ________.

    A. Dior and his supporter had different interests in business

    B. Dior’s New Look had little influence on people then

    C. Dior is only a brand of women’s fashion

    D. Dior’s fashion was not accepted at first

What is probably the best title for the passage?

    A. The History of the New Look

    B. The Growth of the Dior Empire

    C. An Expression of Freedom - Dior

D. The Founder of the New Look – Dior
