When many of us take a vacation, more than anything, we seek to relax. We spend long, lazy days on a beach chair or in a hammock(吊床). But too often, we return home, tired.

It doesn’t have to be this way.

In fact active vacations are often the most relaxing of all. We don’t expect you to take up jogging(慢跑), or climbing. Rather, we ask the sedentary(久坐的) vacations among you to spend two to four hours a day doing things, such as walking in the city street, going to a zoo or biking along the ocean.

These kinds of activities aren’t just good for your physical health. They improve your mental health, even your spiritual health. Here are some fresh ideas to make your vacations as pleasurable as they are active and healthy.

A walk at dawn or dusk helps keep you young. Try to make this a daily habit of life when you’re away from home, and you will guarantee yourself both physical and spiritual refreshment.

Don’t allow yourself to spend all your time sitting in front of water. Whether it is the ocean, a swimming pool, or a tree-lined lake, make sure you get into the water for swimming or games, or even walking. Merely standing in waist-high water is a good workout, thanks to the action of the water. And you’ll feel so much more active!

Many of us spend a large chunk of our vacation on the road, either getting to and from our destinations, or using the car for sightseeing. But no matter how beautiful the scenery is, great, memorable vacations don’t happen in a car seat. Frequently get out and stretch, walk, picnic, shop, visit, and have fun. It’s important for your health and energy, and it makes traveling a lot more active and interesting

1.The idea in the text is mainly to _______.

A. suggest ways to make vacations relaxing

B. suggest places for relaxing vacations

C. explain the reasons for having vacations

D. explain the relationship between vacations and health

2.Which of the following can be considered as a form of exercise?

A. Sitting by a lake.              B. Standing in water.

C. Staying in a car.        D. Enjoying beautiful scenery.

3.In the last paragraph, the author seems to advise us to _______.

A. have vacations frequently         B. get out of the car frequently

C. go on vacations on foot           D. stay in a car seat

Friends should always be honest with you, right? So when they lie, it can be really hard to take. You want to trust your friends and that means knowing that they’ll tell it to you straight no matter what it is. 1.Why does this happen?

2.

One of the biggest reasons friends lie is simply to avoid hurting your feelings. Some people don’t understand the difference between being gently honest with a friend and being so straightforward that they leave a verbal wound. They choose to avoid these two extremes in the form of a lie.

They feel embarrassed.

Sometimes friends will lie about things in their life because they are too embarrassed to admit the truth. Maybe they are going through a rough time and they just don’t want you to know about it. Avoid trying to badger ( 纠 缠 ) your friends into telling you what’s wrong.3.

Avoid an argument with you.

Perhaps your friends know that if they tell you the truth, you’ll get angry with them. Make sure that if a friend tells you something unpleasant, you don’t overact.4. If you do end up arguing, do　 it in a respectable way.

Exclude you.

Lying isn’t always a sign that friends are trying to protect you, however. 5. When you find out with certainty that your friend is lying to you, try and face it. If you feel your friend is lying because he or she doesn’t want to be around you, that’s your wake-up to move on.

A.Protect your feelings.

B.They want to be your closer friends.

C.But a friend who lies isn’t always trying to hurt you.

D.Consider what’s being said and why your friend is telling you this.

E.Being honest and making a sincere effort can keep the friendship strong.

F.Sometimes they lie because they don’t want you to be included in their plans.

G.Instead, make it clear that you are there for them when and if they are ready to talk.
