3.My mother sat in silence,shocked by my guided tour of websites of adventurous families,who bike around the world for charity,sail the globe in search of their roots or see the world through children's eyes.We found many people on boats,bikes and foot,showing that adventure doesn't have to die when a new life is created.As one of my friends says,‘This is your one and only chance to explore the world with your children as they are now.'
‘Mum,'I began awkwardly.‘We're going to travel across New Zealand.Two bikes,two trailers(拖車),two toddlers(學(xué)步的孩子) and 2,000 miles.'
‘Two thousand nappies(紙尿褲)more like.'
My mother wasn't the only one to raise objections.While friends and family were impressed by our bravery,they were horrified at what it would involve.‘No nursery,no babysitters,no bath time,no peace,no escape…'And that was before we mentioned the real difficulty:pulling 50kg of trailer,toddler and baggage.And of course the nappies.
‘Is there anything I can say to put you off?'my mother asked.
‘No,Mum,'I replied firmly.
‘Well,we'll see about that.'
The challenge of dealing with my mother's phone call about potential disasters is as great as anything we may have to face on the road.Meanwhile,we rush to toilet-train both children to avoid the nappy carrying.Among the voices of doubt and disapproval,I still sometimes wonder if we are mad,but know we aren't mad alone.We have now been in communication with many of the families I showed my mother on the web.And we can feel our own voice getting stronger and more confident with their encouragement,advice and support.
Now we know there are so many families out there adventuring,we're already developing ideas for a world tour to meet some of these families and talk with them about their experiences and spread the word about the possibilities for independent family adventure.As a friend of ours said,‘The only limit is the parents'imagination.'We intend to let ours run wild.

28.What made the author's mother surprised?B
A.There're so many things to view on the Internet.
B.So many parents travel with their small children.
C.There're so many different ways to see the world.
D.The author made so many friends on the Internet.
29.When the author's friends knew her travel plan,they feltC.
A.delighted   
B.curious         
C.worried
D.excited
30.When the author is travelling,her mother phones her toC.
A.offer her advice on training children
B.help her get in touch with friends
C.persuade her to stop travelling
D.make sure she isn't mad
31.According to the last paragraph,the authorD.
A.is planning a reunion party with her family
B.has already made a detailed plan for a world tour
C.is concerned that her imagination may cause problems
D.hopes to meet other families and share their experiences.

Dear editor,
I'm writing to you about a common phenomenon to draw it to the public attention.
As is often the case,when people are having meals,waiting for buses or even walking along streets,they are always addicted to their phones,heads hanging down,completely ignoring others.
The reason for the increasing number of phubbings everywhere is that smart phones nowadays can be used for people to do nearly everything,such as playing mobile games,shopping online and keeping in touch with friends through QQ.However,too much exposure to phones is harmful for their health and safety.Moreover,people engaged in phones fail to communicate well with those around them.
Personally,people should wisely use their phones to help with their work and study.Meanwhile they'd better care more about their family and friends rather than phones.
Best wishes to you!.

14.Housework is a frequent source of disputes (爭(zhēng)論)between lazy husbands and their hard-working wives,but women have been warned not to expect men to pull their weight any time soon.
A study from Oxford University has found that men are unlikely to be doing an equal share of housework before 2050.Mothers,the researchers warned,will continue to shoulder the burden of childcare and housework for the next four decades,largely because housework such as cleaning and cooking is still regarded as"women's work".
The gap between the amount of time men and women spend on housework has narrowed slowly over the past 40years.But it will take another four decades before true housework equality  is achieved,the study concluded.The research found that in the Nordic countries,the burden of housework is shared more equally between men and women.In the UK,women spend an average of four hours and forty minutes each day on housework,compared with two hours and twenty-eight minutes for men.This is an improvement from the 1960s,when British women typically spent six hours a day on housework,while men spent just 90minutes every day.
But progress towards housework equality appears to be slowing in some countries.Dr Oriel Sullivan,a research reader from Oxford's Department of Sociology,said,"we've looked at what is affecting the equality in the home,and we have found that certain tasks seem to be given according to whether they are viewed as‘men's work'or‘women's work'."Dr Sullivan said cultural attitudes taught at school may be responsible for the views of housework."At school it is much easier for a girl to be a tomboy,but it is much more difficult for a boy to enjoy baking and dancing,"she said.

28.What does the underlined part word probably mean in Paragraph 1?D
A.Lose weight.B.Be lazy.C.Earn money.D.Do equal housework.
29.Why will women continue to do more housework before 2050?D
A.Because men are too busy to help.
B.Because they would like to do so.
C.Because they can do better in housework.
D.Because housework will still be considered as women's work.
30.From Paragraph 3,what do we know in the UK?C
A.Men now spend just 90 minutes a day on housework on average.
B.Women now are too busy with their work to do housework.
C.Women now spend less time on housework than before.
D.Housework is shared equally between men and women.
31.In Dr Sullivan's opinion,what is to blame for the housework inequality?A
A.Cultural attitudes towards housework.
B.Policies made by the government.
C.The time spent on work.
D.The type of housework.
