Imagine this: your parents go away on business, but you have to stay at home alone. Would life be as easy as when your parents are around? Would it be a perfect holiday for you?

'”I can fill an empty stomach with tomato and egg soup, but that's all. I think many of my classmates are the same. We wouldn't know what to do, or how to look after ourselves," said Zheng Chenyu. "And I'd forget something important. I'd probably watch television and burn the soup. "

“As soon as I leave home, I'll learn to cook. But now parents do almost everything for us. We’re very lazy, "she said.

Most teenagers have only time for their homework. They don't learn any life skills until they go to college.

However, Sima Yige doesn't think so.

"I think I'd be all right. I wouldn't just eat sandwiches or fruit. I know how to cook, some sim­ple dishes because my mum showed me," the 13 - year - old boy said. In his opinion, many teen­agers depend too much on their parents, and there is much more to learn than cooking, like "tidying up your room or even dressing yourself properly."

For most teenagers it wouldn't be a holiday at all.

71. Why would Zheng Chenyu probably burn the soup?

    ________________________________________

72. When will Zheng Chenyu learn to cook?

73. Translate the underlined sentence "They don't learn any life skills until they go to college. " in this passage.   ________________________________________

根據(jù)短文內容,完成文后任務。注意:每個空格只填一個單詞。

Are people less happy or happier when they get older? If your answer is “happier”, then you are right, based on a study published five years ago. It found that people generally become happier and experience less worry after age fifty. In fact, it found that by the age of eighty-five, people are happier with their life than they were at eighteen.

The findings came from a Gallup survey of more than three hundred and forty thousand adults in the United States in 2008. At that time, the people were between the ages of eighteen and eighty-five.

Arthur Stone in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Science at Stony Brook University in New York led the study. His team found that levels of stress were the highest among adults between the ages of twenty-two and twenty-five. Stress levels dropped sharply after people reached their fifties.

Levels of happiness were the highest among the kids and those in their early seventies.

The survey also found that men and women have similar emotional patterns as they grow older. However, women at all ages reported more sadness, stress and worry than men did.

So why would happiness increase with age? One theory is that, as people get older, they become more thankful for what they have and have better control of their emotions. They also spend less time thinking about bad experiences.

Title: Relationship Between Age and   1.
