Are you always unwilling to do housework and cleaning for no reason? Well, you will be happy today. Today is No Housework Day. It’s time to forget about housework and be relaxed.

No Housework Day is always on April 7th. It is your chance to do anything, except housework. Better still, have someone else do housework for a day. Housework is a daily and endless job and most people think it’s boring to do housework. I have many friends and their wish is to stay away from housework. In fact, their wish can never come true.

If you usually do the housework around the house, forget it on this day. Instead, kick back and enjoy the day. Relax and do anything, except housework.

“I sometimes get up at three or four in the morning to surf the Internet.”

“ I checked my e-mail almost forty times a day.”

“I seldom spend less than three hours each time on the net.”

“I spend more time in chat rooms than with my ‘real-life’ friends.”

Do you know any people like these? They are part of a new addiction* called Internet addiction. According to experts, Internet addicts* spend at least thirty hours online every week. They lose control of the time they spend on the Internet.

For example, one college student was missing for several days. His friends were worried and looked for him everywhere but couldn’t find him. They called the police. The police found the student in the computer lab: he was surfing the Internet---for seven days straight.

A study shows that about seven to ten percent of Internet users become addicted. The teenagers spend more time on the Internet than with friends and family. That’s why some experts worry most about young people.

Is “surfing the Internet” a hobby or an addiction for you? You may have a problem if you have one of the following symptoms*.

★ You go out with your friends less and less.

★ You’ve decided to spend a short time online, but then you spend several hours.

★ You do not go to important family events or you do not do school projects because you like to spend hours on the Internet.

What is the situation? Some experts suggest that people set strict limits on their time for internet use. You have to learn to control it, or the Internet would control you.

1.Internet addicts at least spend ________ hours online every week.

A. twenty B. thirty C. forty D. fifty

2.Some experts worry most about young people because__________.

A. they spend too much time on the Internet.

B. they spend too much time with their friends

C. they get up too early to surf the Internet

D. they spend too much money shopping online.

3.Where may you find this passage?

A.In a guidebook B. In a magazine

C. In a movie poster D. In a storybook

A habit is any action that we have performed so often that it becomes something that we do almost without thinking. Some of them are thought to be bad habits. People spend countless hours and dollars each year trying to get rid of these bad habits but often fail. Why? Change is hard work and there is no shortcut to achieve it. However, there is still some advice for you to follow.

First, look at why you do it. In other words, what’s the result of doing this thing? If your bad habit is shouting at people when you are unhappy or under pressure, what do you get from it? It may make you feel a little better for the moment. Or maybe you have a bad habit of leaving your homework undone. The result could be that you get more time to spend on the Internet!

Next, take a look on the other hand. What are you losing because of your habit? Shouting at other people is a bad habit because it makes people around you feel bad and unhappy. Leaving your homework undone is a bad habit because you may be punished by your teacher. Having more Internet time means that you are losing the chance to learn the things that you need to learn. When you think that way, you’ll find that it’s not wise to keep your bad habit! Now it is time to make a decision. What will you choose? I’m sure you will choose to do what you think is more important.

A. a habit is a terrible thing that we can never change

B. people spend countless hours and dollars to get rid of habits

C. none of the people who try to break bad habits are successful

2.The underlined sentence “there is no shortcut to achieve it” means that ________.

A. it is not easy to get rid of bad habits

B. there is a long way and a short way

C. something dangerous may happen

D. we must cut it in a short time.

3.According to the reading, if you want to get rid of your habits, you have to _____.

A. talk to others when you are in low spirits

B. know why you do what you do

C. finish your homework first

D. spend less time on the Internet

Around the world more and more people are taking part in dangerous sports and activities. Of course, there have always been people who have looked for adventure-those who have climbed the highest mountains, traveled into unknown parts of the world or sailed in small boats across the greatest oceans. Now, however, there are people who look for an excitement from a risky activity which may only last a few minutes or even seconds.

I would consider bungee jumping （蹦極跳）to be a good example of such an activity. You jump from a high place (perhaps a bridge or a hot-air balloon)200 meters above the ground with an elastic (有彈性的) rope tied to your ankles. You fall at up to l50 kilometers an hour until the rope stops you from hitting the ground. It is said that two million people around the world have now tried bungee jumping. Other risky activities include jumping from tall buildings and diving into the sea from the top of high cliffs.

Why do people take part in such activities as these? Some psychologists suggest that it is because life in modern societies has become safe and boring. Not very long ago, people's lives were often in danger. They had to go out and hunt for food, diseases could not easily be cured, and life was harder than that of the present days.

Nowadays, according to many people, life offers little excitement. They live and work in safe environment; they buy food in shops; and there are doctors and hospitals to look after them if they become ill. The answer for some of these people is to look for danger in activities such as bungee jumping.

1.More and more people today ______.

A. are trying activities such as bungee jumping

B. are climbing the highest mountains

C. are coming close to death in sports

D. are looking for adventures such as exploring unknown places

2.In bungee jumping, you ______.

A. jump as high as you can

B. slide down a rope to the ground

C. tie yourself to a rope and fall to the ground

D. fall towards the ground without a rope

3.People probably take part in dangerous sports nowadays because ______.

A. they have a lot of free time

B. they can go to hospital if they are injured

C. there isn’t so much excitement in life.

D. they no longer need to hunt for food

4.Which of the following is the best title for this passage?

A. Modern Life is Boring

B. Dangerous Sports: What and Why

C. Is Bungee Jumping Really Dangerous

D. Need for Excitement
