    It’s so beautiful outside that spending the day in the office would be very boring. So why not take the vacations(假期)off? A new survey(调查)found that 31﹪of U.S workers don’t always take all of their vacation days. Americans have 12 vacation days on average(平均)each year, but they give back an average of 3 vacation days each year.

    The French take their vacations seriously. French workers get an average of 39 vacation days, and 40﹪ plan to take at least one there-to-four-week vacation.
    Workers in Sweden receive an average of 25 vacation days a year, but they can’t find time to use them all. More workers there return vacation days than any other country surveyed.
    British workers have the longest working week in Europe(欧洲),with 23 vacation days --the shortest vacation. So they feel overworked.75﹪ say their weekends or vacations are too short and 40﹪ would sacrifice a day’s pay(工资)for one more vacation day.

    试题分析：外面的风景是多么的美丽，面对无聊的办公室工作，为什么不去度假呢？因此对全世界各国的假期情况进行了一个调查。报告中指出了美国、法国、瑞典、英国等国家的假期情况，但是报告中也展示出了有的国家工人并不是将全部假期用完。
    小题1:细节理解题。问题：有多少美国工人不全部用完他们的假期？分析原文：A new survey(调查)found that 31﹪of U.S workers don’t always take all of their vacation days.句意：一个调查发现：31%的美国工人并不是一直花费全部的假期，因此结合选项之意，选择第四项。故选D

    Hip hop or rap (说唱) music started on the street and in the clubs of the New York City in the 1970s. People rap to express how they feel about their lives and problems.
    Rapping in class.
    Would you like to rap in class? Well, actually hip pop music is played in more than 10,000 schools in the USA. Why? There is a new school program called “Flocabulary” in which teachers use texts and hip hop CDs to help teach different school subjects. The words of the songs are just what students are studying. This makes learning easy and fun. Students and teachers are excited about the good results it has had on exam marks. Mr. Lee, a teacher in a high school, said, “I’ve used hip hop songs in class, and I have never seen my students so crazy about history! You can’t imagine how well they remember what I teach! We even try to write our own songs.”
    Whose idea was Flocabulary?
    Blake Harrison, a high school student, was the first person to come up with the idea of Flocabulary. The word “Flocabulary” comes from the word “flow” and “vocabulary”. “Flow” is a rap word for “style”, or the way a rapper says the words of a song. “Vocabulary” means the words you have to learn in a language. How did he get the idea? Well, he realized he could remember the words of a hip hop song very easily. So, why not make lessons into songs? Today together with Alex Rappaport, a song writer, Blake produces hip hop songs for math, science and literature (文学). They are now used in schools with great success.
    小题1: Rap music started ______ in the New York City in the 1970s.
    A．in a high schoolB．in a music class
    C．on the streetD．in a CD shop
    小题2:From the passage, we can learn “Flocabulary” is a program to ______.

    This year 2, 300 teenagers from all over the world will spend about ten months in U.S. homes. They will attend U.S. schools, meet U.S. teenagers, and form impressions  (印象)  of the real American teenagers. American teenagers will go to other countries to learn new languages and have a new understanding of the rest of the world.
    Here is a two-way student exchange in action. Fred, nineteen, spent last year in Germany with George's family. In return, George's son, Mike, spent a year in Fred's home in America.
    Fred, a lively young man, knew little German when he arrived, but after two months' study, the language began to come to him. School was completely different from what he had expected -much harder. Students rose respectfully (尊敬地) when the teacher entered the room. They took fourteen subjects instead of the six that are usual in the United States. There were almost no outside activities.
    Family life, too, was different. The family's word was law, and all activities were around the family rather than the individual. Fred found the food too simple at first. Also, he missed having a car.
    "Back home, you pick up some friends in a car and go out and have a good time. In Germany, you walk, but you soon learn to like it."
    At the same time, in America, Mike, a friendly German boy, was also forming his idea. "I suppose I should criticize(批评)American schools." He says. "It is far too easy by our level. But I have to say that I like it very much. In Germany we do nothing but study. Here we take part in many outside activities. I think that maybe your schools are better in training for citizens. There ought to be some middle ground between the two."
    小题1:The whole exchange program is mainly to______.
    A．help teenagers in other countries know the real America
    B．send students in America to travel in Germany
    C．let students learn something about other countries
    D．have teenagers learn new languages
    小题2:What did Fred and Mike agree on?
    A．American food tasted better than German food.
    B．German schools were harder than American schools.
    C．Americans and Germans were both friendly.
    D．There were more cars on the streets in America.
    小题3:What is particular in American schools?
    A．There is some middle ground between the two teaching buildings.
    B．There are a lot of after-school activities.
    C．Students usually take 14 subjects in all.
    D．Students go outside to enjoy themselves in a car.
    小题4:What did Mike think after experiencing the American school life?
    A．A better education should include something good from both America and Germany.
    B．German schools trained students to be better citizens.
    C．American schools were not as good as German schools.
    D．The easy life in the American school was more helpful to students.

    Students these days often have a lot of worries. Sometimes they have problems with their schoolwork, and sometimes with their friends.     . Some people think the worst thing is to do nothing. Laura Mills, a teenager from Washington, agrees. “Problems and worries are normal in life,” says Laura. “But I think talking to someone helps a lot. If we don’t talk to someone, we’ll certainly feel worse.”
    Laura once lost her purse, and worried for days. She was afraid to tell her parents about it. She even walked three miles to school each day because she didn’t have any money. She just kept thinking. “If I tell my parents, they’ll be angry!” But in the end, she talked to her parents and they were really understanding. Her dad said he sometimes made careless mistakes himself. They got her a new purse and asked her to be more careful. “I will always remember to share my problems in the future!” Laura says.
    Robert Hunt advises students about common problems. He feels the same way as Laura. “It is best not to avoid our problems. We should always try to solve them.” He thinks that you can first find someone to talk to. This person doesn’t need to be an expert (专家) like himself. Students often forget that their parents have more experience than them, and are always there to help them.

    In China, parents often tell their kids not to waste food. However, it's reported that a lot of food is wasted in restaurants every day.
    Many people say when they eat out, they usually order a lot of dishes and they can't eat them up. One person in Chengdu, Sichuan Province says he takes away the leftovers. "Usually we'll have some leftovers after meals, because when I invite friends to eat out, I don't know how much they can eat, so I order lots of dishes to make sure everybody has enough food."
    While another person in Fuzhou, Fujian Province says she never packs what is left on the dining table. "What I usually experience during eating out is a big meal. I seldom take away the leftovers because we often have other activities after the meals, and it's not convenient to take the leftovers. And when no one suggests taking away leftovers, I won't do so."

    If you want to do a school project on children’s rights, you can look on the Internet for some information. A United Nations website can show you plenty of useful information for the project.
    The United Nations lists the rights of children. Most countries agree all of them, but some countries do not. The following are some of the most important rights of children:
    Children have the right to be properly fed, clothed and sheltered by their family. If their family can’t do so, the government should take responsibility.

    Children have the right to be protected from being made to work too hard to make money for other people.
    In some countries children do not have these rights. Many young children are made to work long hours in factories and on farms. In some countries there are so few schools that only rich children get an education. There are not enough doctors or nurses to help many children when they are sick.
