The summer vacation is a time to enjoy a change from the school year.It’s a good chance to work on different activities that you don’t have much time to do during the rest of the year.

We asked about 2,000 people what they would do during the summer vacation.Most of the survey-takers agreed that the summer vacation was a break from homework and they could relax.

Alexis said,“At school,I’m really tired,so during the summer vacation I can read books and do many outdoor activities.”

Amy is in high school.After school,she sometimes works in a cafe.She told us,“It’s a chance to relax after a hard school year—sleep more,and visit my friends more.”

We also asked them if they would be too busy or kind of bored.About half (52%) of the survey-takers said they would be busy during the summer vacation but still have time to relax.And that is exactly how it should be.

But not everyone said their summer vacation would be the right balance(平衡) between being busy and relaxing.Many thought that they would be too bored.

How bored or busy people feel during the summer vacation depends on how old they are.Survey-takers in their early teens were more likely (可能的) to be bored.Among them,40% said they would be bored and only 10% thought they would be too busy.

Perhaps you’ve seen the English letters “WC” in your city. They show public toilets. But do you know it is far from elegant (優(yōu)雅的) English? In fact, foreigners from English-speaking countries rarely use the letters.

Workers in our city are changing “WC” signs all over the city. The government is spending much money changing all the bad English on signs and restaurant menus. Many other places in China are following our steps.

“WC, or water closet, is old-fashioned English. It sounds dirty to me,” says Charlie Shifflet, a young man from the US. The old sign will become “Gents/Men” and “Ladies/Women”.

“I see lots of poor English in everyday life, and not only on signs,” he says. “I know what they mean. But they are Chinglish, not real English. For example, when someone says to me ‘My hometown is Henan Province’, I know he should say: ‘My hometown is in Henan Province’. ‘Hometown’ is a smaller place in a province.” The common(通常的) mistakes include “Not Entry”, which should be “No Entry”, “Direction(方向) of Airport” should be changed to “To the Airport”. And it is “room rate(房價(jià))”, not “room price”. And remember to “Keep off the grass”, rather than “Care of the green”.

1.What does the writer think of the use of “WC”?

A. He doesn’t think it means water closet.

B. He doesn’t think it old-fashioned English.

C. He doesn’t think it proper for a sign.

D. He thinks it elegant English.

2.The underlined word “rarely” means .

A. sometimes B. seldom C. often D . always

3.Charlie Shifflet .

A. is a Chinese living in America

B. thinks Chinese people are sometimes using incorrect English

C. likes to hear or see Chinglish

D. sometimes uses Chinglish

4.Which of the following signs does NOT use Chinglish(中國式英語)?

A.

B.

C.

D.

5.The last paragraph is about .

A. why there are so many Chinglish signs B. examples of Chinglish

C. where Chinglish signs are D. who uses Chinglish signs

1.C 2.B 3.B 4.D 5.B 【解析】試題分析：英語越來越廣泛的應(yīng)用于我們的日常生活，但是在中國有很多英語的標(biāo)志其實(shí)都是不符合英語的表達(dá)習(xí)慣的，例如WC，這是很不優(yōu)雅的一個英語詞匯。文章中還舉了很多漢語式英語的例子。 1. 2.rarely use the letters可知，作者的觀點(diǎn)是用WC指公共廁所是不優(yōu)雅的，因此來自說英語國家的外國人很少...

科目：初中英語 來源：人教版九年級英語Unit 6　When was it invented？自我復(fù)習(xí)與檢測 題型：閱讀單選

Many children spend a lot of time watching or playing with electronic media –from televisions to video games, computers and other devices（設(shè)備）.

So, it is natural that parents should wonder about the time children spend looking at a TV or computer screen. Americans say “screen time” when they talk about any time children spend in front of an electronic device.

Perhaps parents can stop worrying so much about screen time, at least for older boys and girls. In October 2016, the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) listed several suggestions for parents and child care workers. Here are some of the suggestions.

? Avoid digital media use in children younger than 18 to 24 months.

? For children aged 18-24 months, avoid letting the child watch media alone. And avoid using media as a way to comfort your child.

? For children two to five years of age, allow one-hour screen time on “high-quality（質(zhì)量）programming” a day and watch it with your child.

? For children aged 6 and older, don’t spend too much time using media. Also, make sure that screen time does not take the place of healthy sleep, exercising, doing homework and other activities.

? Make sure to have media-free time together as a family, such as dinner or driving. Also make some areas of the home media-free. Turn off you child’s electronic devices an hour before bedtime.

1.What is “screen time” according to Americans?

A. A kind of timing system（系統(tǒng)）.

B. A survey on electronic media

C. Any time children spend in front of electronic media.

D. Any electronic device children like to play with

2.What did AAP do in 2016 after?

A. They gave some practical suggestions.

B. They told parents how to reduce their children’s screen time.

C. They trained many child care workers.

D. They raised much money to stop children using electronic devices.

3.How do parents deal with the screen time for children two to five years of age?

A. Choose proper programs and watch with them. B. Play with them for at least one hour.

C. Avoid letting them watch TV. D. Don’t worry about them.

4.How does AAP explain too much screen time?

A. An hour or more every day. B. Using too many electronic devices.

C. Screen time takes the place of other activities D. Using electronic media to comfort the children.

5.What is media-free time?

A. It is the time you can use media freely. B. It is the time you cook or drive.

C. It is the time to be with your family. D. It is the time you stay away from electronic devices.
