      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,Li Ping 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.

根據(jù)短文內容回答下列問題。

1. Why would Zheng Chenyu probably burn the soup?

2. When will Zheng Chenyu learn to cook?

3. What's Li Ping's idea about many teenagers’ life?

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

5. What do you learn from this passage?

C

      Long long ago a man went to India and he had never been there before. When he got there,he saw a lot of fruit,but much of it was expensive because they couldn’t grow much because there was little water. Finally he saw a big basket of some very red and long fruit. And it was the cheapest in the shop. So he went up and asked ,“How much each kilo?” and the shopkeeper said ,“Two rupees (盧比) .” Two rupees in India was nothing. So he bought a whole kilogram of the fruit and started eating it. But after he ate some of it: Oh,my god!His eyes watered,his mouth watered and burnt,and his face became red. He jumped up and down,saying ,“Ah!Ah! Ah!”

      But he still continued to eat the fruit!Some people who were looking at him shook their heads and said, “You’re crazy,man. Those are chilies (辣椒) !You can't eat so many!People use them as a condiment,but only a little bit to put into food for taste. You can't just eat them like that ” But the silly man said ,“No,I can't stop!I paid money for them,and now I'll eat them up. It's my money!”

      And you think that man was silly,right? We sometimes do a lot of things like that. We spend money,time or effort doing something. And even though it's a long time,hard experience tells us it won’t work,and we know there's no more hope,we still continue just because we’ve put money,time,effort and love into it. Just like the man who ate the chilies and felt so bad but couldn’t stop because he didn't want to waste the money he’d paid. So even if you’ve lost something,let it go and move on. That's better than continuing to lose.


() 1. The man chose to buy the red and long fruit only because .

   A. he hadn’t eaten it before   B. he was hungry

   C. it was cheap   D. he hadn’t seen it before


() 2. The underlined word “condiment” in Paragraph 2 probably means .

   A. 零食   B. 水果   C. 調料   D. 蔬菜


() 3. Which of the following sentence is TRUE?

   A. The man went to India to buy fruit.

   B. The man didn't want to waste money.

   C. The man bought the fruit because it was expensive.

   D. India can grow a lot of fruit.


() 4. From the passage,we can learn that .

   A. we shouldn’t waste money

   B. we shouldn’t eat chilies

   C. we shouldn’t buy something cheap

   D. letting something go is better than keeping on losing

I have to go with her sometimes,and that is truly the most boring thing in the world. Do you like horses?

     Write soon.
