Living in a city has both advantages and disadvantages. It is often easier to find work. If you go out, you can choose different vehicles. Besides, there are a lot of places of interest ot see. You can eat in good restaurants, visit museums, go to parks and watch films when you want to relax. However, living in a city is often very expensive. You must find a well-paid job, otherwise you will not have enough money to spend on the things you need. What’s more, the city is always crowded, noisy and dirty. It has become harder to find a good place where people can enjoy peace and fresh air as in the countryside.

Imagine you are living in a moving house. Inside the house, there is a small kitchen, bathroom and bedroom. Everything you need is close at hand.

In the US, you can really see these moving houses on the road. They are called recreational vehicles (RVs, 房车). People call them houses on wheels. When it’s holiday time, the whole family often gets into this lovely house and goes out for a journey across the country.

Not like a real house, this home on the road is small for a family who has to spend every hour of every day together. But the best thing about it is that it changes your journey into a free exploration (探险).

You can drive as long as you like without worrying about finding hotels and restaurants. Or you can just stop somewhere nice and stay for a few weeks. You may also meet other families who are also on road trips. Together, you take out your tents and snacks. It’s camping time with a lot of talk and laughter!

Of course, RVs can be inconvenient (不便利的). They can sometimes break down and you have to spend time fixing them up. But this kind of road journey still wins people’s hearts because they can go wherever they want and whenever they would like.

1. What is an RV like ?

_____________________________________________________________________________

2.Do you need to worry about hotels and restaurants when traveling in the RV?

_____________________________________________________________________________

3.Can you stop somewhere nice and stay for a few weeks with an RVs?

_____________________________________________________________________________

4.Why does an RV road journey still win people’s hearts when there’s some inconvenience?

_____________________________________________________________________________

A long time passed. These people began growing crops. No one knows how or when those people learned about growing food. But when they did， their lives changed， they did not have to move houses any more.

They could stay in one place and grow it. People began to live near each other. And so the first villages grew. Many people came to work in the villages. These villages grew bigger and bigger. Then people had machines， and lives in the villages changed again. They built factories. So the villages grew into cities. Some of them grew very big.

All big cities are quite similar. Living in a modern Asian city is not very different from living in an American city. But it is different from living on farms however.

In many parts of the world, farmers and their families live in villages or towns. In the United States, however, each family lives on its own fields and often can't see any neighbor. Instead of traveling from a village to the fields every morning. American farmers stay on their land all the week. They travel to the nearest town on Saturdays for shopping or on Sundays for church. The children ride on horses to large schools which serve all of the farm families living in the area. In some areas there are some small schools serving a few families and the children walk to school.

Of course, life keeps changing for everyone including farmers. Today there are cars, good roads, radios and TV sets. And of course, there are modern machines for faming now. All these have greatly changed farmers’ life.

Before, farming in America was often a lonely way of living for a long time. Farmers had to deal with their own problems, instead of getting help from others. They learned to try new ways, and thought of their own ideas instead of following old ways.

1.Where do the farmers live in the United States?

A.Villages B.Towns C.Buildings D.Fields

2.Why do the farmers in America travel to the nearest town on Saturdays?

A.Because they want to meet friends B.Because they want to buy something
