23、Many people like to travel when they have time off from school or work. They might go to their hometown to see their family, or travel somewhere far. But not everyone does this—some people take a “staycation” instead.

A staycation is a vacation when you do not travel at all. Some people use a staycation to just stay at home, and others prefer to experience the attractions around them without traveling very far.

There are many choices for staycations. Any town or city has plenty of choices for things to do if you know where to look. If the weather is nice, you can visit the local gardens or forests for a hike. You can look online for several historic places and create your own history tours. Of course, you can also visit other attractions in the areas like museums, restaurants, bars, parks, beaches, and so on.

I had a staycation of my own over the summer. I slept in late every day. I worked on music and played video games. I wasn’t too lonely—I had my cat to play with, and I visited some of my friends around the city.

Traveling is fun from time to time. But it’s also nice to just stay home and relax. It’s also cheaper, since I don’t have to pay to travel. You can choose to do just about anything you want—or, if you want, just do nothing. There’s nothing wrong with that.

D．Busy.

【5】Which of the following might the writer agree with?

A．People should spend some time alone during weekends.

B．Doing nothing at home is OK for vacation.

C．People choose to stay at home because it’s cheap.

24、Terry Fox was only seventeen when he got cancer (癌症) . He must have felt hopeless when the doctor said his right leg would have to be cut off 6 inches (英寸) above the knee.

But to everyone’s surprise, Terry Fox made up his mind to become a long-distance (长距离的) runner and do something about the cancer. What a dream!

Although it seemed impossible, Terry decided to run across the whole country. He hoped to raise one million dollars for cancer research. Few people believed he would make it.

25、Climbing a mountain is hard work. But one step after another finally brings a person to the t 【1】. Along the way, he can stop and look a【2】. And the higher he climbs, the more w【3】 views there will be. If he k【4】 climbing, he will have a new world before him. He will have a new way of seeing everything.
