根据短文内容回答下列问题。

We have a two-day holiday every week. We don't have any lessons on Saturdays or Sundays, so every weekend I have a good time.

On weekends, I like taking a trip. I sometimes go to the country with my classmates by bus to breathe(呼吸) the fresh air, watch the green hills and the blue sea, and walk in the beauty of the countryside. Sometimes I go for a picnic in the open air with my friends by bike. There we draw many pictures and take photos. Sometimes I go to visit a place of interest with my parents by car.

Sometimes on Saturdays, I take a long trip with my parents. We don't go home at night and make a fire on the hill. We sit around it, singing and dancing happily. If we feel tired, we get together, look at the stars and chat for a long time. And then sleep for a few hours.

My weekends are always full of interest and happiness.

（1）、Why does the writer have a good time every weekend?

（2）、What's the meaning of the underlined word "beauty "in Chinese?

（3）、How does the writer go for a picnic?

（4）、If the writer and his/her parents feel tired, what do they do?

（5）、Do you have a two-day holiday every week? If so, what do you often do?

I think everyone has a dream. My dream is to have a large home. I don't like living in the city. So the home is in the country, but not far from the city of Nanjing. On the ground floor, there is a training room and a swimming poor. I can play table tennis, basketball and badminton there. And I can also swim there. After training, I can have a shower and a bath with my friends. So there must be a bathroom. On the second floor, there is a computer room and a reading- room. And there is a bedroom. Then I can go to bed there.
Now, what's on the first floor? We will have meals. So there is a kitchen and a dining-room there. And we can watch TV, play cards, listen to the music and so on. Welcome to my home to be the guests.

    The students' life today can be very stressful (紧张的). They are under pressure (压力) every day. They need a (1)break from it. Parents should ask children to do something else. But not let them relax in front of the TV. A hobby is the perfect answer.
    There are many different kinds of hobbies. Chess is a good example. It is a very enjoyable game and it also helps children develop their thinking skills.
    Collecting something is also a good hobby for children. A child can collect almost anything: key rings, stamps, postcards, old coins, etc. Many of these collecting can be both interesting and fun. They teach children a lot and broaden (开阔)their knowledge. For example, gardening (园艺) is a useful hobby because it is a physical activity and it also teaches children about nature.
    (2) A hobby can be a useful learning tool. Children may become experts in something if they really love their hobbies. Children will also learn to become more organized and make places, for example in collecting something. Hobbies will also teach children a lot about responsibility(责任).

Different people have different hobbies. Some like growing flowers, some like singing and others like building model ships. I'm interested in stamps and started to collect them in 2008.

My father works in a big company. He always goes abroad. Eight years ago, when he was working in America, he sent home a letter with a beautiful stamp on the envelope(信封). I liked the stamp very much. From then on I have always asked my father to send me different stamps from different countries. Later I joined a club and I have made many friends there. They helped me learn more about stamps and always traded(交换) stamps with me. And I got some special stamps from them.

Now I have more than a thousand stamps. When I look through these beautiful stamps, I feel relaxed and happy. I can enjoy the beautiful designs of stamps.

In the countryside of China, many people are moving to cities to find work. They move because often there isn't much work in the countryside. Services like hospitals and schools are usually not very nice there.

But in the big cities like London, New York, Paris, people are moving out. They want to live a quiet life. They don' t like the city because it is noise and dirty (脏的)in cities. The traffic is heavy. Living in the cities costs too much. They want a big house with a garden and fresh air. So they move the countryside with clean water and green trees. There, they begin new lives and try to make new friends.

"A wise old owl sat on an oak. The more he saw, the less he spoke, the more he heard. Why aren't we like that old bird?" –Edward H.Richards.

We all need to learn to listen well. Listening is a skill we should be practicing every day. And I mean active listening, not just listening when it is convenient to us.

Listening shows others that they are important. It's a sign of respect (尊重). If someone listens to you carefully when you are talking, it shows that they are really interested in what you are saying.

How do you practice listening? Here are some basic rules:

{#blank#}1{#/blank#} Are you in the middle of writing something? Put down the pen and fold your hands. Are you reading something? Close it so that it will be impossible for you to look down and start reading again. Then put it down.

{#blank#}2{#/blank#} The computer will take your attention from your job at hand—listening.

{#blank#}3{#/blank#} Facing the person you are talking with will help you focus completely on listening. It will also make the person feel that you find what he is saying important.

{#blank#}4{#/blank#} Standing closer to the speaker will show interest. Crossing your arms in front of your chest shows disagreement. Looking around the room shows you have no interest. Looking the speaker in the eyes tells him that he is important.

{#blank#}5{#/blank#} Do not start sharing your ideas after hearing the first few words. Do not just think about your reply in your mind. Pay attention to the speaker. Really listen to what he is telling you.
