A. Choose the best answer (根据以下内容,选择最恰当的答案) 

Liu Yaxuan is totally a homebody. Every weekend, this 14-year-old student from Tsinghua High School watches popular TV dramas and plays with her mobile phone. She hates playing outdoor sports."It's too tiring,"she said.

She is not alone. In recent years, more and more Chinese teenagers are becoming homebodies. A 2013 survey of kids aged 2 to 14 showed about half of them spend less than one hour doing outdoor activities every day.

To some extent, heavy academic pressure (学业压力) caused this situation. Hu Huilan, 12, from Shenzhen Nanshan Language School, is busy with piles of homework and extra classes on weekends."I don't want to get behind,"she said.

Even if this isn't a problem, kids still prefer indoor life. Wang Yidi, 12, from Anhui No. 50 Middle School, often reads Harry Potter, listens to music and surfs the Internet at home."I can do so many things I like at home rather than hang out in smoggy weather,"she said.

But this causes bad health conditions. Chinese teenagers' physical conditions have been dropping for about 28 years, reported a newspaper last year.

The situation for teenagers should be changed. They should spend their free time outdoors even if it just means going to the park or reading a book under the tree. Nice weather, little homework and rich outdoor activities enable them to do that. It helps them stay energetic.

How do people from all over the world spend their free time? Let's have a look. 

·Internet

People from Canada spend about 43.5 hours online every week, 8 hours longer than Americans. Canada has long cold winters, so people spend lots of time at home. 

·Outdoors

People from New Zealand spend most of their free time outdoors. The countryside there is great for mountain climbing and water sports. 

·Bars

Spain has a lot of bars. In Spain, a bar is for families, not just drinkers. It's a meeting place and often an eating place. When none of your family or friends are free, you can still go to a bar by yourself. People around you in the bar may ask you to join them. 

·Museums

The UK has six of the top 20 most visited museums in the world, such as the National Gallery, the British Museum and Tate Modern. 

·Parties

As for parties, most people will think of Brazil. Its carnival (狂欢节) is famous all around the world. Bangkok and Berlin are two of the best cities for partying. In Bangkok, you can meet friendly people and visit great nightclubs. In Berlin, you can enjoy beautiful music on the streets. 

·Exercising

In Greece and Estonia, over 80 percent of people exercise every day. The Olympic sports are very popular in these two countries, but Estonia has a very special game: ice cricket (冰上板球)!

For tens of years, a phone booth (电话亭) stood in the Mojave Desert, about 75 miles southwest of Las Vegas, America. People called it the Mojave Phone Booth. It seemed unusual for a phone booth to stand in the desert (沙漠). The phone booth was said for local miners (矿工) and their families around 1950. 

Later one day, Godfrey Daniels, a man from Arizona, America, heard about the phone booth. He had the phone number and decided to call it just to see if anyone would answer. Nobody answered at first. He called the number whenever he was free. After several tries, someone actually answered the phone. Godfrey spoke with a woman. She was a miner working there. 

Godfrey put the phone's number on the Internet, and many people began calling it. Godfrey even travelled to visit the phone booth. And he was not the only person to do that. Many people went to the Mojave Desert just to see the phone booth. They often camped out, waiting to answer the special phone. Calls came in from many different states and even different countries. Answering the phone and talking to strangers became an enjoyable activity for them. They shared their own stories and even made friends with each other. 

In 2000, the phone booth was removed ( 被拆除) because visitors were causing too much stress (压力) on the environment. Although the phone booth is no longer in the desert, many people still remember it and talk about it.
