    As prices and building costs keep rising, “the do-it-yourself”（DIY）trend（趋势） in the US continues to grow.
    “We needed furniture for our living room,” says John Kose, “and we didn’t have enough money to buy it.” So we decided to try making a few tables and chairs. John got married six months ago, and like many young people these days, they are struggling （努力）to make a home when the cost of living is very high. The Koses took a 2-week course for $ 280 at a night school. Now they build all their furniture and make repairs around the house.

    I'm pretty sure everyone wants to visit Europe at least once in their lifetime. Here's a list of the most amazing places to visit in Europe.
    Riviera
    Wow, this is such a beautiful place in Italy. The Cinque Terre is a very beautiful national park, which connects five beautiful villages. Walking paths connect the villages, follow the coastline and offer hikes through hills. The villages remain unaffected by tourism.
    Tuscany
    Another Italian region, Tuscany is simply attractive. The buildings there are amazing, and the culture is special. From the historical center of Florence to the Cathedral of Pisa, it's a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Make sure you check out the nature reserves, and enjoy a few bottles of the very famous wine.
    Lauterbrunnen
    Since a school trip here, I've always wanted to revisit this city in Switzerland. The city always seems as if it's trapped in time. There are untouched fountains and springs everywhere, and a huge number of waterfalls and valleys. The area is very popular for skiing.
    The Greek Islands
    There are plenty of places to visit in Greece. But I love the Greek Islands best. White houses and beautiful churches, beaches and Aegean Sea make this a very popular place to visit. However, there is more to do here than just sunbathe. I cannot wait to go back and check out the caves and culture that make the Greek Islands one of the best places in Europe.
    Venice
    I am a big Italy lover, and Venice is another city that is not to be missed. It has its own share of history, art and attractive buildings. However, the attraction comes from the pedestrian （行人） — only streets and rivers filled with boats.
    小题1: According to the passage, people who are interested in waterfalls and valleys would most probably go to _______.
    A．RivieraB．Tuscany
    C．LauterbrunnenD．the Greek Islands
    小题2: From Paragraph 5 we learn that the Greek Islands_______.
    A．hasn't been visited by the writer yet
    B．is a good place for sunbathing
    C．isn't worth exploring
    D．has many waterfalls and valleys
    小题3: What will you probably see when you are visiting Venice?

    任务型阅读 阅读下面短文，根据短文内容，完成下列各题。（共5小题，计10分）
    Language is always changing and developing. This isn’t a bad thing. If English hadn’t changed for a long time, we won’t have words to describe telephones, washing machines, computers or some other new things.
    Language changes for several reasons. First, it changes because the needs of its speaker change. New technologies, new products, and new experiences need new words to express them clearly. Another reason for change is that different people have different language experiences. People use different sets of words and expressions, because they have different ages, jobs, education levels(水平) and so on.
    How does language develop then? On the one hand, many of the languages changes begin with young people. When young people communicate with others of their own age, their language grows in grammar, words and expressions that are different from the older people’s. Some have a short lifetime but others can influence the language for long. On the other hand, we get new words in many different ways. We borrow them from other languages, we create them by making words shorter or combining words and we make them out of proper names.
    Languages that don’t change over time are considered dead languages. The fact that English changes so much shows that it is alive and well.
    小题1:What does the writer think of the change and development of language?
    He thinks it is                       .
    小题2:Why do people use different sets of words and expressions according to the passage?
    Because their          and education levels are different.
    小题3:How many reasons for language change are mentioned in this passage?
    The writer mentions          reasons.
    小题4:How do young people help develop language?
    They do it when they                  others of their own age.
    小题5: What is considered a dead language according to the passage?
    The one that                   over time is considered a dead language.

    In Britain, the first day of the month of May is known as May Day. May day marks the end of the harsh(严酷的) winter months, welcomes the beginning of Summer, and optimistically looks forward to the bright and productive months.


    For their ancestors, largely in rural areas, it was a major annual festival and was celebrated(庆祝) through out the country, especially on the first day of May with music, dancing and games.

By tradition she took no part in the games or dancing, but sat like a queen in a flower-decked chair to watch her 'subjects'.

    In most parts of the world there are four seasons. They are spring, summer, fall and winter. In different seasons people wear different clothes and do different things.
