    How often do you use your car? Can you use your car less often? Do you know the following facts in the UK?
    ? About 50% of all car journeys are just for fun.
    ? Over 80% people go to work by car.
    ? 25% car journeys are under two miles.
    ? 70% car journeys are under five miles.
    WALKING & CYCLING
    Instead of using the car for short journeys, why not walk or ride a bicycle? Walking is a most popular form of exercise—it’s healthy and it can save you money. If you work nearby, try walking or cycling instead of driving.
    BUSES
    Bus companies are using new buses: some run on new fuels which produce less pollution; some have easier access for disabled and old people. There are special traffic lanes (行车道) to make bus journeys easier and more reliable. So do something to help solve the pollution problem—let the bus take you to work and your children to school.
    TRAINS
    All car journeys, long or short, can be hard work. For some trips it is wiser to take the train. Leave your car at home and walk, cycle or take a bus to and from the station. Train travel is fast, safe and comfortable. Train tickets are not always expensive; some are quite cheap at discount.
    小题1:How many of car journeys are just for fun in the UK?

    Finally, a cell phone
    That's… a phone
    With rates as low as $3.75 per week ！
    “Well, I finally did it. I finally decided to enter the digital age and get a cell phone. My kids have been annoying me and the last straw was when my car broke down, and I was stuck by the highway for an hour before someone stopped to help. But when I went to the cell phone store, I almost changed my mind. The phones all have cameras, computers and a "global-positioning" something or other that's supposed to spot me from space. Goodness, all I want to do is to be able to talk to my grandkids ！ The people at the store weren't much help. They couldn't understand why someone wouldn't want a phone the size of a postage stamp. And the rate plans! They were confusing, and expensive… and the'contract (合同）lasted for two years! I'd almost given up until a friend told me about her new Jitterbug phone. Now,I have the convenience and safety of being about to stay in touch with a phone I can actually use. ”
    Affordable plans that I can understand一and no contract to sign (签订）！ Unlike other cell phones，Jitterbug has plans that make sense. Why should I pay for minutes I m never going to use? And if I do talk more than I plan，I won ’t find myself with no minutes like my friend who has a prepaid phone. Best of all, there is no contract to sign_so I m not locked in for years at a time. The US-based customer service is second to none. And the phone gets service anywhere in the country.

    Children like to imagine they are someone else in a game. As a parent you might never guess how it can benefit your child. It helps your child：
    Develop Social Skills
    As children play pretend games，they explore relationships between family members，friends and co­workers and learn more about how people interact.Playing doctors，they imagine how physicians care for their patients.Imaginative play helps develop empathy(移情) with others.If children can imagine how it feels to be left out of a game or to lose a pet，they are better able to help those in need.They become more willing to play fair，to share，and to cooperate.
    Build Self­confidence
    Young children have very little control over their lives.Imagining oneself as a builder of skyscrapers or a super hero defending the planet is inspiring to children.It helps them develop confidence in their abilities and their potential.
    Promote Intellectual Growth
    Using imagination is the beginning of abstract thought.Children who can see a king's castle in a mound of sand or a delicious dinner in a mud pie are learning to think symbolically.This skill is important in school where a child will have to learn that numbers symbolize groups of objects，letters symbolize sounds，and so on.
    Practice Language Skills
    Kids who pretend with their friends do a lot of talking.This helps increase their vocabulary，improve sentence structure and develop communication skills.

    B．Preparing a delicious dinner with mud.

    Still seeking a destination for your weekend break? There are some places which are probably a mere walk away from your college.
    King's Art Centre
    A day at the Centre could mean a visit to an exhibition of the work of one of the most interesting contemporary artists on show anywhere. This weekend tees the opening of an exhibition of four local artists.
    You could attend a class teaching you how to 'learn from the masters' or get more creative with paint ---- free of charge.
    The Centre also runs two life drawing classes for which there is a small fee.
    The Botanic Garden
    The Garden has over 8,000 plant species; it holds the research and teaching collection of living plants for Cambridge University.
    The multi-branched Torch Aloe here is impressive. The African plant produces red flowers above blue-green leaves, and is not one to miss.
    Get to the display house to see Dionaea muscipula, a plant more commonly known as the Venus Flytrap that feeds on insects and other small animals.
    The Garden is also a place for wildlife-enthusiasts. Look for grass snakes in the lake. A snake called 'Hissing Sid' is regularly seen lying in the heat of the warm sun.
    Byron's Pool
    Many stories surround Lord Byron's time as a student of Cambridge University, Arriving in 1805, he wrote a letter complaining that it was a place of "mess and drunkenness". However, it seems as though Byron did manage to pass the time pleasantly enough. I'm not just talking about the pet bear he kept in his roans. He spent a great deal of time walking in the village.
    It is also said that on occasion Byron swam naked by moonlight in the lake, which is now known as Byron's Pool. A couple of miles past Grantchester in the south Cambridgeshire countryside, the pool is surrounded by beautiful circular paths around the fields. The cries of invisible birds make the trip a lovely experience and on the way home you can drop into the village for afternoon tea. If you don't trust me, then perhaps you’ll take it from Virginia Woolf- ----over a century after Byron, she reportedly took a trip to swim in the same pool.
    小题1:As mentioned in the passage, there is a small charge for_____.
    A．attending the masters' classB．working with local artists
    C．learning life drawingD．seeing an exhibition
    小题2:"Torch Aloe" and "Venus Flytrap" are_____.
    A．common insectsB．impressive plants
    C．rarely-seen snakesD．wildlife-enthusiasts
    小题3:We can infer from the passage that Byron seemed_____.
    A．to fear pet bearsB．to like walking
    C．to be a heavy drinkerD．to finish university in 1805
    小题4:In the passage Byron's Pool is described as a lake_____.
    A．surrounded by fields
    B．owned by Lord Byron
    C．located in Grantchester
    D．discovered by Virginia Woolf
    小题5:What is the passage mainly about?
    A．Some places for weekend break
    B．A way to become creative in art.
    C．The colourful life in the countryside.
    D．Unknown stories of Cambridge University.
