     Now some women are spending a weekend at MotherJs Camp. 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 of herself. She can sleep,read,or watch TV,and no one will disturb 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 back 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 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,and they don't look after their children or husbands. What do they do? They enjoy warm,sunny weather,walking,swimming or boating on 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.

三、任務(wù)型閱讀(20分)

     The idea of teamwork is very important to the success of any team. All coaches (教練) talk about working as one unit,as a team that plays as one. Teamwork and unselfishness (無私) make the strong center of a great team;without them a team cannot play well against other teams. You can have a group of superstars,but if they do not work well as one unit,they are not going to be successful. The team working as one unit is going to be successful.

     ◆Here are some things to think when you are looking at your team：

     ◆Does your team have agreed-upon goals they made as a team?

     ◆Do the players openly encourage and support one another?

     ◆Do they have open communication with one another,as well as the coaches?

     ◆Does each player know what their role on the team is?

     ◆Do players use words such as “we” when talking about the team?

     ◆Does the team as a whole want to make their match better?

     ◆Does each member think themselves as a “team player” ？

     A winning team has players that share common goals and a common dream. They may come together for many different reasons,but their goals are the same —- to get success.

     Teamwork is something that must be on the top of the list. Every player needs to understand how important it is for them to work easily together if they want to be successful. Each player must be true to the whole team and be willing to act unselfishly. When challenges (挑占戈) come,the team needs to deal with them in a good manner. A sense of teamwork will play an important part in this.

      Just remember T. E. A. M. — Together Everyone Gets More!

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容回答下列問題。

1. What can make the strong center of a great team?

2. Which is more important to the success of a team,teamwork or superstars?

3. How many things are there when you are looking at your team?

4. How does a team come together according to Paragraph 3 ?

5. What is the text mainly about?
