What do you usually do after school? Playing football? Watching TV? Come on, we need something new! Let's see how kids in foreign countries spend their free time!

Mess around with Dress-up

Do your parents have any old clothes? See if you can get an old box and start collecting hats, shoes and clothes now! Then, when your friends come over after school, you can play dress－up. See if you can make yourself into a doctor, or a cowboy, or even a spaceman! Use glitter paint and old material to decorate the clothes the way you like them.

If you are really clever, you could even put on a show for your family! Let your imagination run wild!

A young woman carrying a three－year－old child got on a bus. The conductor hurried to give her a warm welcome and then kindly asked the other passengers to make more room for the woman and her child. On seeing this, people began to talk. “You know this conductor used to be very rude. Now suddenly he has changed his bad behavior.”said a middle-aged man.

“Yes, he should be praised and we must write a letter to the company. ”said a second passenger. “That's right.” another lady said, “I wish a newspaper reporter were here so that more people could learn from this conductor.”

Just then a gentleman who looked like a teacher turned to the conductor and said, “Excuse me, but can I know your name, please? Your excellent service must be praised ...”

Before he could open his mouth, the three-year-old child sitting on the young woman's lap interrupted, “I know his name. I call him Dad.”

How many people have I met who have told me about the book they have been planning to write but have never yet found the time? Far too many.

This is Life，all right, but we do treat it like a rehearsal (排演) and，unhappily, we do miss so many of its best moments.

We take jobs to stay alive and provide homes for our families，always making ourselves believe that this style of life is only a temporary (暂时的) state of affairs along the road to what we really want to do. Then，at 60 or 65，we are suddenly given a clock and several grandchildren and we look back and realize that all those years waiting for Real Life to come along were in fact real life.

In America they have a saying much laughed at by the English：“Have a nice day.”They speak slowly and seriously in their shops，hotels and sandwich bars.I think it is a wonderful phrase，making us remember, in effect，to enjoy the moment：to value this very day.

How often do we say to ourselves，“I'll take up horse－riding(or golf, or sailing)as soon as I get a greater job，”only to do none of those things when we do get the higher position (职位)．

When I first became a reporter I knew a man who gave up a very well-paid respectable job at Daily Telegraph to go and work for a small weekly newspaper.At the time I was surprised by his decision：Why was he in this completely abnormal (反常的) mental (精神) state? How could anyone turn_his_back on Fleet Street in central London for a small area in the countryside? I wanted to know.

Now when I am a little older and possibly wiser, I see the sense in it. In Fleet Street the man was under continual pressure.He lived in all unattractive London suburb (郊区) and he spent much of his life sitting on Southern Region trains to and back from his work.

29．The first paragraph of the passage tells us that ________.

A. we always try to find some time to write a book

B. we always make plans but seldom complete them

A. leave for B. return to

C. give up D. rely on

31．The man left his first job because he was ________.

A. in an abnormal mental state B. under too much pressure

C. not well-paid D. not respected

32．What is probably the best title for the passage?

A. Provide Homes for Our Family B. Take Up Horse-Riding

C. Value This Very Day D. Stay Alive

D

Recently, we’ve been talking about how we need better teachers. There’s no doubt that a great teacher can help in a student’s achievement but here’s what some new studies are also showing: We need better parents.

Every three years, the organization called O.E.C.D. organizes exams as part of the Program for International Student Assessment (评估), or PISA, which tests 15-year-olds on their abilities to solve real problems. America’s 15-year-olds have not done as well as students in
