If you think you have two left feet but would love to be a good dancer then why not try your hand at dancing?

That’s exactly what I did five years ago and I immediately fell in love with dancing. To me, dancing is a magical experience: I’ve become fitter, look younger and feel more confident. I enjoy it so much that I will never give up this healthy pastime.

It’s very sociable as well. You meet people and make new friends while dancing the night away. Haven’t you heard stories about how dancing inspired new romances or rekindled (重燃) old ones? My friends Joe and Rena just had their big day a few weeks ago after they met each other at a Ceroc workshop some three years before.

The word “Ceroc” comes from the French language. Without the complicated footwork, it is easier to pick up by beginners. Another good thing about Ceroc is that while it is a partner dance, you don’t have to bring a dancing partner.

Other popular styles of dancing in the UK include ballroom, belly dancing, lindy hop, salsa, tango and tap dancing, just to name a few.

No matter what types of dancing you do, one thing is for sure: you will become fitter. For office workers like me, dancing is good cardio exercise after a long day sitting in front of the computer screen. It also strengthens your muscles, improves your coordination(协调) and increases your physical confidence.

Few people will end up being queens of the dance floor. The aim is not to win a competition but to enjoy the interaction(交流). As long as you do the right moves, keep the rhythm and most importantly keep an encouraging smile to your dancing partners, you will always be a winner!

Raising pets is not a new thing in China , but recently it has taken on a new meaning .

As a famous Chinese saying goes, pursuit of petty (小的，不重要的) pleasures weakens one’s will to make progress . The saying has been so popular that even today many people still consider raising pets as a hobby of the idle .

Things have changed much recently and now raising pets has become a popular pastime , resulting in a successful pet care industry .

Pet food is sold in almost all supermarkets and many special stores for pet needs have been set up .

Animal hospitals provide various medical services for sick dogs and cats , and pet exchange fairs are held regularly .

At the China International Pet Show which took place recently in Beijing , more than 100 factories from across the country exhibited their products . Thousands of dealers and pet owners went to the show.

“People’s swollen pockets make it possible for many to raise pets , a hobby that used to be enjoyed only by the wealthy ,” said Wang Wei , who works with the National Kennel Association of China .

Wang Yuyan , vice president of the Small Animals Protection Association , agreed , “ In many films and novels , having a pet is used as a symbol of wealth . That’s not a complete picture . ” Wang added that pets are friends in a real sense of the word , not just playthings . “ Anyone with a loving nature can raise pets . ”

Still the high cost of keeping a pet is something many people have to think about .

“I like dogs and cats , but I have neither time nor money to raise them , ”said Li Jun , in her 40’s , a civil servant from Beijing .

The cost of raising a dog is high in Beijing , where registration (登记) is a must for all dogs and costs 5,000 yuan for each animal . In addition , pet owners must pay for regular injection of vaccines (疫苗). Most of all , dog food is quite expensive .

Unlike his mother , Li Jun’s 10-year-old son, Li Qiyu, dreams of the day he will have his own pet . “I hope I can have a dog in my house , ” he said .

1.Things have changed much recently , because ___________ .

2. In big cities in China today , raising pets ________ .

There's a lot for teenagers to do! Trying new thing is a great way to become more independent, explore your own interests and learn about other places and cultures. 1.

What about going to a festival? 2. Camp festival has The Den, an area for 13-17 year olds, with music, DJs, workshops and activities. - no adults allowed! The three-day Larmer Tree Festival has an excellent Youth Zone where you can chill out(放松). 3. I’d also recommend(推荐)the Citadel. That one is a one-day event, so it's an ideal first-time festival.

5. You won't have to organise anything because there are adults to help. But don't worry, they won’t tell you what to do, and you’ll get a lot of freedom to do what you want.

One of the most difficult things for children to deal with when moving to a new town is leaving their friends and making new ones.

We once moved and one of our new neighbors told us about a summer camp at the Recreation Center all the kids went to. My husband and I looked into it and we found it was unbelievably cheap. I had the kids sign up (报名) the next day so that they could know more kids there.

Another thing we did was to have them sign up for sports when school started. They were happy to be on teams with new friends they made. This also gave me a chance to meet new people and from them I sometimes got some useful ideas for my new books.

If you’re just moving to a new house in the same city you live in now, it won’t really be a problem unless your kids are changing schools. If they are, it is a great idea to have them take the address book to school. Thus, your children won’t feel “lost” without their old friends.

If you’re able to, over the summer vacation, try inviting the friend your child misses most to come and visit your new home for a week, or even a few weeks. I know this can be difficult if that child has to fly, but maybe you can work out a plan with the child’s parents. Think how happy the kids will be when they meet!

1. The author had her kids sign up for the summer camp mainly because _____.

A. she could afford the cost                B. she was asked to do so by her kids

C. it could give her kids a chance to meet more kids

D. it could make the summer holiday not so boring

2.What is probably the author?

A. A housewife.     B. A business woman.       C. A teacher.       D. A writer.

3.What we can’t learn from the passage is that ____.

A. a summer camp at the Recreation Center was very cheap

B. having the kids take part in sports is good for both the author and her kids

C. parents should ask their children not to think of their old friends

D. parents should create more chances for children to make new friends

4.The purpose of the passage is to teach parents how to ______ when they move to a new place.

A. get used to the new life in a short time

B. help their children make new friends and keep the old ones

C. get along with their new neighbors

D. help their children get used to the new school life

Sometimes children do not do what their parents tell them to do．When this happens，a parent tries to help the child to do the right thing．When this does not work，the parent usually punishes the child．

There are many things that a parent can do．One thing that people have done is to spank(打屁股)the child．When a parent spanks a child, they will use their hand or a hard object to strike them on the bottom．This means showing the child that they have done something wrong．

One parent remembers being spanked when he was a child．His parents used a wooden spoon．When he spanked his own children with his hand, he saw that he put a red mark on his child’s leg．He never did that again．

One problem with spanking is that it teaches the child to hit someone when they do not like what the other person is doing．Another problem with spanking is that the parent is usually angry and can hit the child too hard．Sometimes parents will use spanking for everything and not try other ways to get the child to do the right thing．

Many parents are not sure of what to do instead of spanking．Some people think that their religion tells them that spanking is okay．Some think that the law lets them do it．The courts(法院)say that parents have the right to teach their children how to behave．

Other things should be tried before a parent decides to spank a child．Telling the child exactly what is wanted from them can be one thing．Giving a child more than one choice is another thing that can be tried．Getting down to the child’s level and taking a more child-friendly approach can help as well．

1.According to the passage，when children do something wrong，one thing that parents usually do　　　　　　　　　　　　 to punish them is to

A．strike them on the bottom

C．teach them what to do

D．take them to court

2.Which of the following is NOT the problem caused by spanking?

A．It teaches the child to hit others when they offend him or her．

B．The parents may get angry and hit the child too hard．

C．Sometimes parents may use spanking for everything．

D．It makes parents try other ways to make the child do right．

3.From this passage，we can conclude that

A．good children always do the right thing

B．parents should try their best to avoid spanking their children

C．parents have no choice but to spank their children

D．children can have more than one choice to avoid being spanked
