1. Fun can do away with bad feelings and lift our spirits. 娱乐可以消除 不良情绪，提振精神。
（1）fun在句中作不可数名词，意为“乐趣；娱乐”。如：We had a lot of fun at the party. 我们在那个聚会上玩得很开心。
其常见搭配如下：
①have fun （in） doing sth意为“做某事很开心”。如：We had fun （in） talking and playing. 我们聊得很开心，玩得很愉快。
②for fun意为“为了好玩”。如：He said it only for fun. 他只是 说着玩的。
③make fun of sb意为“取笑某人”。如：Don t make fun of others who look different. 不要取笑那些看起来与众不同的人。
fun还可作形容词，意为“有趣的；令人愉快的”，通常修饰名词。 如：a fun game 一个有趣的游戏。
注意：fun作形容词时，正式语法中通常不单独作表语，而应使用 funny（滑稽的；好笑的）。
（2）do away with意为“废除；摆脱；摒弃”，后面通常接名词或动 名词。如：The government is planning to do away with the outdated tax system. 该政府计划废除过时的税收体系。She needs to do away with her fear of public speaking. 她需要摆脱对公众演讲的恐惧。I have to do away with smoking because it s bad for my health. 我必须戒烟，因为这对我的 健康有害。
（3）lift sb s spirits意为“使某人开心起来；使某人振奋”，指通过 积极行为或言语改善他人的情绪状态。主语可以是人、事物或事件。作 谓语时须搭配具体情境，适用于安慰、鼓励、庆祝等场景。如：Doing sports can lift our spirits. 做运动可以振奋我们的精神。Mum lifted his spirits with a warm hug. 妈妈用一个温暖的拥抱让他振作了起来。The good news lifted everyone s spirits. 这个好消息让每个人都振奋起来。
辨析：lift sb s spirits与cheer sb up
lift sb s spirits偏重精神层面的鼓舞，常用于描述一种整体情绪或士 气的提升，尤其适合群体或正式场合。如：The coach s speech lifted the team s spirits. 那个教练的演讲鼓舞了全队的士气。
cheer sb up偏重情绪上的开心，强调通过具体的行为或言语来改善 情绪，更口语化。如：She told a funny story to cheer him up. 她讲了个有 趣的故事让他开心起来。
2. Fun also keeps us feeling youthful. 娱乐也让我们保持年轻。
（1）keep在句中作及物动词，意为“保持”。keeps us feeling youthful是典型的“keep + 宾语 + 现在分词”结构，表示“使某人/某物持续 处于某种状态”。如：Don t keep me waiting. 别让我一直等着。
keep的其他用法如下：
①keep + 形容词：表示“保持某种状态”。如：Keep quiet. 保持 安静。
②keep + 名词：表示“保留、保管某物；饲养”。如：How long can I keep this book？ 这本书我可以借多久？He keeps a pet turtle in his room. 他在房间里养了一只宠物龟。
（2）youthful作形容词，意为“年轻的”。如：My grandmother has a youthful spirit. 我的奶奶有着年轻的心态。其名词形式为 youth，意为“青年；青年时期”。如：The youth of today are very creative. 如今的年轻人很有创造力。Youth is the best time to learn. 青年时期是学习的最佳时机。
辨析：youthful与young
youthful与young都表示“年轻的”，但侧重点不同。
youthful 强调年轻人特有的活力、精神特质或外貌，常带褒义。 如：youthful energy年轻态的活力，youthful appearance 年轻的外表。
young主要指年龄上的年轻，是客观描述，属于中性词。如：young children 小孩子，a young company 一家新公司。
3. Don t forget to take some time out to have fun and enjoy life！ 别忘了抽点时间，找点乐子，享受生活！
本句是一个否定祈使句，核心动词是forget，通过助动词do的否定 形式don t构成劝告或提醒语气。祈使句的用法如下：
①定义：用于表达叮嘱、命令、请求、劝告、希望、禁止等的句子 叫祈使句。祈使句通常省略主语而以动词原形开头，无时态和数的变 化。为表示礼貌，可在句首或句末加上please。please放在句末时，其前 通常加逗号。
②形式
1）肯定祈使句的形式：
种类 构成 例句
Do型 动词原形 （+ 宾语） + 其他. Please have a seat here. 请这边 坐。
Be型 Be + 表语 + 其他. Be a good child！ 要做一个好孩 子！
Let型 Let + 宾语 + 动词原形 + 其他. Let me help you. 让我来帮你。
2）否定祈使句的形式：

·Let型祈使句的否定式有两种：“Don t + let + 宾语 + 动词原形 + 其 他.”和“Let + 宾语 + not + 动词原形 + 其他.”如：Don t let him go. = Let him not go. 别让他走。
·用no开头，表示禁止的祈使句。如：No smoking！ 禁止吸烟！ No fishing！ 禁止垂钓！
4. But we just sit there and look at the screen without noticing it at all. 但我们只是坐在那里盯着屏幕，完全没有注意到它。
（1）notice在句中作及物动词，意为“注意到”。其用法如下：
①notice + 名词/代词：表示“注意到某人/物”。如：Did you notice the change？ 你注意到那个变化了吗？
②notice + 宾语 + 动词原形：表示注意到动作的全过程。如：I noticed him enter the room. 我注意到他进了房间。
③notice + 宾语 + 现在分词：表示注意到动作正在进行。如：I noticed him talking on the phone. 我注意到他正在打电话。
notice还可作名词，其用法如下：
①作不可数名词时，意为“注意；理会；察觉”。如：Don t take any notice of it. 别在意它。
②作可数名词时，意为“通知；布告；辞职信；搬迁通知”。如： There was a notice on the board. 那块布告板上有个通知。He handed in his notice. 他递交了辞呈。
（2）at all的核心用法是加强语气，意为“根本；究竟；丝毫”。它 主要出现在三种句型中：
①否定句：表示“根本不；一点也不”。如：I don t like horror movies at all. 我一点也不喜欢恐怖片。
②疑问句：表示“到底；究竟”。如：Did you sleep at all last night？ 你昨晚到底睡了没有？
③条件句：用于加强if的语气，表示“假若；既然”。如：If you do it at all, do it well. 你既然要做，就把它做好。
此外，单独使用“Not at all.”可回应感谢或道歉，意为“不客气；没关 系”。
5. We become couch potatoes with sore necks and dry eyes. 我们变成 了脖子酸痛、眼睛干涩的窝在沙发里不愿运动的人。
（1）couch potato是一个固定俚语，原意为“老泡在电视机前的 人”，中文常戏称为“沙发土豆；电视迷”。也可指代“久坐不动、不愿运 动的人”。这个词形象地描绘了人像土豆一样“扎根”在沙发上的状态。
英语里还有几个类似的表达：
mouse potato：指整天泡在电脑前的“电脑迷”。
desk potato：形容长期久坐办公的“办公族”。
slouch potato：强调懒散、驼背的坐姿，也是指懒人。
（2）sore在句中作形容词，意为“疼痛的；酸痛的”，形容身体 部位因发炎或过度使用而产生的短期疼痛。如：sore throat喉咙 痛，sore muscles肌肉酸痛。它也可以作名词，指身体上的溃疡或伤 口（如口腔溃疡、皮肤溃疡），也可比喻为情感或关系中的“痛 点”。如：I have a small sore on my tongue after eating spicy food. 吃完辣的食物后，我舌头上长了一个小溃疡。Losing the game was a sore for him, but he promised to practise harder. 输掉那场比赛是 他的“痛处”，但他保证会更努力练习。

续表
6. We miss out on sweet moments with loved ones. We are deaf to the real world. 我们错过了与亲人在一起的甜蜜时刻。我们对现实世界充耳 不闻。

Taking part in fun activities can make our lives colourful. While some people enjoy spending time 1. 　　　　, others find joy in group activities. It s important 2. 　　　　 friends to join us in these activities, as it can make friends become very close and create 3. 　　　　 memories.
When we take part in different activities, we often discover new interests. For example, trying a sport allows us to understand our physical abilities and improve our teamwork skills. On the other hand, activities like hiking can heighten（增强） our awareness of nature. We might 4. 　　　　 the beauty of a sunset or the sound of birds—the things that are often overlooked in 5. 　　　　.
However, while looking for fun, we must remain careful. Some activities can be dangerous if we do them in a wrong way. Therefore, it s important for us to keep 6. 　　　　 safe.
1. 此处要填入副词来修饰动词spending；句子前后为对比关 系，根据“group activities”可知，此处强调个人活动。2. It s important to do sth意为“做某事很重要”，为固定句型；invite sb to do sth意为“邀请某 人做某事”，为固定搭配，符合句意。3. 此处强调参加活动的好处，要 填入褒义形容词来修饰名词memories。4. 情态动词might后跟动词原 形。5. 此处指日常生活中经常忽略的事物。6. 此处强调保护我们自身的 安全，要填入反身代词。
　1. alone　2. to invite　3. unforgettable　4. notice　
5. daily life
6. ourselves
　1. forget的用法
forget作动词，意为“忘记”，其用法及变形如下：
①forget to do sth：意为“忘记去做某事（动作还没发生，还没 做）”。如：Don t forget to invite your friends. 别忘了去邀请你的朋友。
②forget doing sth：意为“忘记做过某事（动作已经发生，做了但记 不起来了）”。如：I forgot inviting him last week. 我忘了上周已经邀请过 他了。
③forget的形容词为forgettable和forgetful，其区别如下：
·forgettable：意为“容易被忘记的”，用来描述事物缺乏特色、不令 人印象深刻，容易被遗忘。如：The movie was forgettable—I can t even remember the plot. 这部电影很平淡，我连剧情都记不住了。其反义词为 unforgettable，意为“令人难忘的；难以忘怀的”。如：That trip was unforgettable. 那次旅行令人难忘。
·forgetful：意为“健忘的”，用来描述人容易忘记事情，记忆力 差。如：My grandpa is so forgetful that he often forgets to take his medicine. 我爷爷很健忘，经常忘记吃药。注意：这个词的反义表达 是 not forgetful 或 has a good memory，而不是“unforgetful”——后 者不是标准英语单词。
2. 反身代词的用法
在句子“Therefore, it s important for us to keep 6. 　　　　 safe.” 中，“keep”在这里表示“使……处于某种状态”，“us”是“keep”的宾语，当 宾语和主语为同一对象时，通常使用反身代词来强调“我们自己”。这里 强调的是对“我们自身”安全的保障，即我们要使我们自己处于安全的状 态，所以要用反身代词ourselves。
反身代词是英语中表达“……自己，本身”含义的一类代词。
数 第一人称 第二人称 第三人称
单数 myself yourself himself/herself/itself
复数 ourselves yourselves themselves
其基本用法如下：
①作宾语：主语是动作的发出者，同时也是承受者。如：He taught himself to play the piano. 他自学弹钢琴。
②作表语：用于系动词后，说明主语的身份、状态。如：I m not quite myself today. 我今天状态不太好。
③作同位语：位于主语后或句末，起强调作用，去掉后句子仍成 立，但语气减弱。如：The teacher herself answered the question. 那位老 师亲自回答了问题。I saw the movie myself. 我亲自看了这部电影。
④用于“by + 反身代词”结构。如：They built this small house by themselves last year. 去年他们亲手盖了这座小房子。

①You may find something different in schools in Kunming.
②In the past, students had to run to the toilet and then back to class with no time for anything else. But now, things are really different. “I can have more time to rest and share interesting things with my classmates. It is really great,” said Kevin from Kunming. “I can run to the sports field and play soccer with my friends,” said another student.
③From this term, students at primary and middle schools in Kunming have longer breaks between classes. It has been changed from 10 minutes to 15 minutes, encouraging more outdoor activities among students. Students can now spend more time outside, so they can be healthier and happier both in body and mind. To help students better enjoy break time activities, some schools mixed break time with labour education by opening planting areas and animal feeding areas.
④“We have some ducks and rabbits in our school！” said Zhang Boren, a 13 year old boy. “Some students can play with them while others exercise on the sports field. Getting closer to nature is relaxing and doing exercise helps us keep fit.” What s more, many other schools have space for reading or playing the piano.
⑤However, as the break time is longer, it s important to make sure everyone is safe. Teachers now must keep an eye on students playing on the ground. “Sometimes, the ground can be wet in the morning, so we tell students to be careful,” said one teacher.
⑥All these make the breaks safe, colourful and interesting.

Children s Games in Ancient China
During ancient times, Chinese children didn t have mobile phones or computers, but they had a great time playing some interesting games. Let s take a look.
●Kicking stone balls
In the Qing Dynasty, children usually made stones into small balls and kicked them. They often played the game on cold days to keep warm. When playing, each player placed a ball on the ground and kicked it. If the ball hit another ball, the player won.
●Playing hide and seek
Hide and seek was popular all over China in ancient times. There were two ways to play: keeping a child s eyes closed when others ran around to make fun of him or her; or more commonly, some children hid and one child tried to find them.

●Playing diabolo（抖空竹）
Playing diabolo was a very interesting game among young children in North China. Diabolo was always made of wood or bamboo and was hollow （空心的） in the centre. Hanging on a rope, the high speed rotating（高 速转动的） diabolo would make a sound.

Why do people play games？ Because they are fun, and a lot more besides. Following the rules, planning your next move, acting as a team member—these are all “game” ideas that you will have throughout your life.
Think about some games, such as rope jumping and hide and seek. They are fun. But more importantly, they translate life into exciting play that teaches children some rules to follow the rest of their lives, such as taking turns and teamwork.
Many children s games have a practical side: they prepare children for future work by training basic abilities. For example, some Saudi Arabian children play a game called bones. It can exercise their hands and eyes, a key skill for many jobs later in life.
Just as children s games teach lifelong skills, sports carry these ideas further and become a force that unites communities and even nations.
Many sports encourage national or local pride. The Olympic Games, the most famous games of all, bring athletes around the world together to take part in the friendly competition. People who watch the games wave flags, knowing that a gold medal is a win for a whole country, not just the athlete. For countries experiencing natural disasters（灾难） or war, an Olympic win can mean so much.
Sports are also a unifying force that brings people together. People across the world play soccer—some for fun and some for a living. One Californian soccer player has discovered a way to spread hope through soccer. He set up an organisation to provide poor children with not only soccer balls but also a hopeful future.

Ⅱ. 阅读理解
DIY, which means “Do It Yourself”, is quite popular in the UK. Lots of stores and supermarkets sell DIY things. TV programmes show people how to DIY.
British people like DIY. There is a saying in the UK: “An Englishman s home is his castle.” A huge number of people spend their holidays making their homes into beautiful “castles”. If there is anything that needs fixing around their homes, such as painting the walls or putting in a new shower, they will do the jobs themselves. They share DIY experiences with their friends.
More and more people have discovered the joy of DIY. Sometimes, people also DIY for saving money. With the economic downturn（经济滑 坡） at present, many people cannot afford a big house. They are looking for ways to make their houses better without spending a lot of money. It is not surprising that DIY is so popular.
DIY can be difficult. There is a huge market for DIY furniture which people need to put together themselves with a few basic tools. However, people often find it not easy to assemble（组装） a piece of furniture because they can t understand the instructions. Sometimes the instructions are simple and clear, but the furniture itself is difficult to assemble. One thing is for sure, although most DIY projects are started with the best intentions, many of them may not get finished.
DIY can also be dangerous. For example, anything electrical should be done by a professional worker. Unluckily, many people don t care about this warning and put themselves in danger. It is reported that in just one year over 230,000 people were hurt while doing DIY in the UK, including 41,000 who fell off ladders.
Therefore, DIY can bring us fun and help us save money, but it is not always as easy as it is thought to be if we bite off（咬掉） more than we can chew. Maybe factories should make products that are easier and safer for us to DIY.

Hobbies are also fantastic for bringing people together and building friendships. I have a friend named Jenny from the UK. She likes collecting stamps, too. 2. We love talking about our latest finds.

There is a popular Chinese 1. （say）, “du wan juan shu, xing wan li lu”. It means “read ten thousand books and travel ten thousand 2. （mile）” in English.

Dong used the saying to encourage people 4. （study） more and gain knowledge, then put what they learnt into practice.

5. , later on, some people twisted（曲解） Dong s saying to “Travelling ten thousand miles 6. （beat） reading ten thousand books.” The idea says that experience is more important and meaningful than 7. we can get from books.
The two ideas, no matter how you understand them, both compare 8. （read） with travelling.
But this is not only a Chinese idea. Westerners have the similar expression.
