People go fishing for many reasons, for one they like the sport of it, reeling in (搜卷軸拉近魚鉤) the big catch after a long day of work or just having a few drinks on the water with some friends and letting all the stress just go. Whatever the reasons may be, it is absolutely therapeutic.
People in the south sometimes do a strange type of fishing where they reach their arm inside a hole in the bank and pull out cat fish the size of a boat. There is one form called jug fishing where you get a milk jug or water jug and tie a heavy fishing line with a big hook, put on a small brim(容器的口)and throw it in the water. The next morning you get up and see what’s on the hook. There is fly fishing which is with a lighter string and top water jigs(滾鉤)such as bugs that lay on the top of the water until the trout(鱒魚)comes and takes it. It takes longer to reel them in because the line is so light and the fish are heavy.
Ice fishing is a dangerous kind of fishing in the north. You cut a hole in the ice, drop in your bait(誘餌)and wait for a fish to bite. You have to be careful that the fish doesn’t pull your line into the side of the ice and snap it. That is one problem with ice fishing but the fish are usually bigger and worth the trouble.
Going out on the lake with a couple of friends or alone with a couple of drinks and a fishing pole can be the most stress releasing thing you can do sometimes. Just to feel the waves rocking the boat and a good conversation is all the therapy you will need sometimes. Catching a fish is always a great bonus(獎(jiǎng)勵(lì)).
【小題1】 The underlined word “therapeutic” may be replaced by ________.

A.beneficialB.caring C.curableD.healthy
【小題2】 What is the second paragraph mainly about?
A.Some characters about fishing
B.Some different fishing in the south
C.Three common fishing in America
D.People’s creative fishing in the north
【小題3】How many ways of fishing have been introduced in the passage?
A.Two B.Three C.Four D.Five
【小題4】What problem should people pay attention to when going ice fishing?
A.Dropping in the bait several times
B.Waiting for the fish more patiently
C.Cutting a big enough hole on the ice
D.Taking care of the lines of their poles
【小題5】 Fishing is becoming more and more popular mainly because _______.
A.it is a good way to harvest much fish from the rivers
B.it can help people have a good time with their friends
C.it can help people relax themselves to the fullest
D.it is a good way to exercise the strength of their arms

My wife and I went to a supermarket, there we bought some cold drinks and cakes. After we came out of the supermarket, we noticed that in the front of the supermarket was a nice little garden with benches for people relax on. We sat there and started enjoying the things we have just bought. There was ten small cakes in the bag and we couldn’t eat all of it. I wanted to share, but of whom? A young boy appeared. He was looking into the trashcan for nothing to eat. We had just finished three of the ten cakes. So, I took the remained pieces and gave them to him. He thanked me and ran away in a happily mood.

 White-collar workers going to great lengths for stress relief

A soldier of the South Korean special attack corps paints his eyes during a friendly Taekwondo match at a South Korean Army Base in Pochon, north of Seoul.

Stressed out white-collar workers are scaling(攀登) skyscrapers, camping out on rooftops, smashing up restaurants, pretending to be children and even visiting cemeteries in a bid to relieve the pressure of modern life.

As the country's economy continues to steam ahead, once popular forms of entertainment, such as karaoke, card games and even boxing bars, appear to be losing their appeal.

Consider the members of Shanghai's Cat Rain club. By day, this group of young women works executive jobs, but by night they climb buildings so they can spend the night on the roof. "It's a good way to release our pressure. You feel relaxed when you're sitting on the roof, looking up to the sky and chatting with intimate(親密的)friends," said Gong Ying, 25.

The stress of work is not just limited to people in Shanghai. A recently-opened restaurant in Beijing encourages customers to smash plates - as long as they are willing to pay to replace them.

Though there has been some debate about the extravagance(奢侈)of such services, some psychologists say the activity reflects the desire of some white-collar workers to vent their angst.

Some workers even appear eager to return to their childhoods. This May, hundreds of people took part in a festival in which adults pretended to be children. It was an adults-only event, and participants could read comics and eat sweets all day.

Scenic places such as parks and rivers can also help people relax and put things in perspective. But a cemetery? Cemetery companies in Shanghai organized visits to local graveyards for stressed-out workers in March. The participants were taken to quiet spots in the cemetery where they could contemplate (考慮 )life and their futures.

Roof-camper Chen Bin, an IT marketing professional, said she had camped out on a rooftop about 30 times. When she's not sleeping out under the stars, she also has several other adrenalin-fueled interests, such as downhill racing and paragliding.

 "Pressure may bring us distress, but it doesn't mean we can't find ways out," Chen says. "Life should be imaginative."
