【题目】 We all know vacations (假期) are good for our health. But which kind of vacation is better: one long vacation or several short ones? Here is information from research studies about the benefits (好处) of each kind of vacation.

The benefits of a long vacation

International travel has big benefits. For example, people who travel abroad are more c【1】 when they come home. When people visit other countries, they discover different ways people live. This results in more ways of thinking and better problem solving.

Some studies show that people do not sleep well until day two or three of their vacation. After day two or day three, they sleep well for the w【2】 vacation. They also sleep well for one week after the vacation. A long vacation means better sleep for more days.

Traveling on vacation can be stressful. It takes time and money to travel. If you have a long vacation, you get more days of relaxation for your days of travel stress.

If there is a problem at work during your vacation, your coworkers (同事) are more likely to take care of the problem. They are not likely to wait for you. The result? You have l【3】 work when you come back. The benefits of short vacations:

Studies discovered that people enjoy p【4】 their vacation as much as they enjoy taking the vacation. If you decide to take your short vacations a year, you can experience the fun of making arrangements for four different times.

Many people do not call the office during a short vacation. People on long vacations are more likely to check email and worry about work. For example, France has the highest number of vacation days (an average of 30 days a year). It a【5】 has the highest number of people (93%) who check their work email.

Vacations improve our a【6】 to our lives, our families, and ourselves. When we get back to work, we quickly forget all those positive (积极的) feelings. Taking several short a year helps you feel positive about your life more often.

We are busy all the time. It is difficult to find a complete week when everyone can go on vacation. A short vacation is easier to fit in to our busy s【7】 . The busier we are, the more important it is to connect with friends and family on vacation.

【答案】

【1】creative

【2】whole

【3】less

【4】planning

【5】also

【6】attitudes

【7】schedules

【解析】

本文讲述了长假期和短假期的好处分别是什么。

【1】句意：例如，当出国旅游的人们回到家时，他们会有更多的创意。

根据句子结构，空格处是位于系动词are后面，所以空格处填形容词作表语。根据下文When people visit other countries, they discover different ways people live. This results in more ways of thinking and better problem solving“当人们参观其他国家时，他们会发现人们生活的不同方式。这就产生了更多的思考方式和更好的解决问题方法”，可知，人们去参观其他国家回到家后，因为在旅游过程中的所见所闻，会给他们带来更多的启发，让他们有更多的创意，所以空格处填形容词creative。故答案为creative。

【2】句意：第二天或第三天后，他们整个假期都会睡得很好。

根据前文Some studies show that people do not sleep well until day two or three of their vacation“一些研究表明，人们直到假期的第二天或第三天才会睡得很好”及后文They also sleep well for one week after the vacation“他们也会在假期后的一个星期睡得很好”，可知，假期会帮助他们的睡眠，在假期的第二天或第三天之后，一整个假期乃至假期后的一个星期都会睡得很好，所以空格处填whole。故答案为whole。

【3】句意：结果是什么？当你回来后有较少的工作。

根据前文If there is a problem at work during your vacation, your coworkers (同事) are more likely to take care of the problem. They are not likely to wait for you“如果在你休假期间工作上有问题，你的同事更有可能解决这个问题。他们不大可能等你”，可知，在休假期间工作上产生的问题，同事都帮忙解决了，那回来之后就不会有较少的工作。work是不可数名词，所以用little的比较级less修饰，故空格处填less。故答案为less。

【4】句意：人们喜欢规划他们的假期就像他们喜欢度假一样。

固定搭配enjoy doing sth，所以空格处填动名词。根据下文If you decide to take your short vacations a year, you can experience the fun of making arrangements for four different times“如果你决定每一年度一次短假，你可以体验安排四个不同时间的乐趣”，可知，人们喜欢度假，也很喜欢规划假期，所以空格处填动名词planning。故答案为planning。

【5】句意：法国人的假期最多（一年平均30天），法国查看工作邮件的人数也最多。

根据People on long vacations are more likely to check email and worry about work“在长假期中的人们更可能查看邮件和担心工作”及 For example, France has the highest number of vacation days (an average of 30 days a year)“例如，法国人的假期最多”，可知，假期长了，人们要查看邮件，法国人的假期最长，所以他们也是要在假期中查看工作邮件最多的人。空格处是位于实义动词has前，所以用also表示“也”。故答案为also。

【6】句意：假期会改善我们对生活，对家人，对自己的态度。

our是形容词性物主代词，后接名词。根据下文Taking several short a year helps you feel positive about your life more often“一年休几次短假可以帮助你对生活更加积极乐观”，可知，假期可以让你对生活更加积极，这样就会改善对生活，对家人的态度，attitude表示“态度”，为可数名词，our是复数物主代词，所以后面接复数名词attitudes，故空格处填名词attitudes。故答案为attitudes。

【7】句意：短暂的假期更容易适合我们的日程安排。

busy是形容词，后接名词作宾语。根据前文We are busy all the time. It is difficult to find a complete week when everyone can go on vacation“我们一直都很忙。当每个人都可以去度假时，很难找到一个完整的星期”，可知，忙碌的生活很难让我们有长假期，反而短暂假期更适合我们忙碌的日常安排，schedule表示“日常安排”，是可数名词，our表示“我们的”，后接复数名词，所以空格处填复数名词schedules。故答案为schedules。
