Project Active Winter Camp 2026 —The Most Fun English Camp for Teens in Europe
※All English levels welcome ※?590 per head
Beat the winter blues with a week of English, energy, and unforgettable memories! Set in the heart of Goirle, just a short walk from the town centre, our modern youth centre is fully equipped to keep the fun going — rain or shine. With a huge indoor sports hall and warm, welcoming atmosphere, every day is packed with laughter, teamwork, and real English immersion (沉浸).
This Carnival holiday, campers learn English naturally through sports, games, and multimedia projects led by native-speaking staff. Using iPads, drones (无人机), and cameras, students bring their creativity to life while practising English in real-world situations.
Even when it’s cold outside, our indoor and outdoor spaces are filled with activities — from football and dance sessions to creative video projects and team challenges. Hikes to Rotterdam, swimming trips, and movie nights make every day different and exciting.
Campers stay in comfortable shared rooms, with meals taken together (a staff member at every table) and breaks watched all day. It’s a safe, social, and 100% English-speaking environment designed to build confidence, independence, and new friendships.
Spots fill quickly every year — book early and give your child an active, inspiring English holiday they’ll never forget!
If you’re ready to give them a life-changing experience, register & pay online now!

It was a week after my mom had passed away, and I didn’t know how to go on with life. So when I received an email from a friend about a race benefiting cancer research, I ignored it. It seemed too close to the heart, as cancer was the disease that had taken my mother away from me.
But something about my friend’s words — “I can help organize the whole thing” — stuck with me. I felt obliged to agree. In the weeks to come, I managed to re-enter the world of the living. I checked our team’s website daily, feeling proud each time a donation ticked up our total. I knew my mom would have wanted it that way. She was the type who never got defeated. It was this very spirit that helped me get by.
When the race ended, I noticed the runners all had one thing in common: There were big smiles on their faces. They made it look so rewarding and effortless. I wanted in.
So I enrolled in another race two months later. Considering I could barely run a mile, it was ambitious. But my friend and I made a training plan so I wouldn’t come in last. I followed it religiously and didn’t let anything get in my way.
Running up and down the city’s hills, I was flooded with memories. I had lived there after college and my mother had visited often. I passed Bloomingdale’s, recalling the time she and I had gotten into a screaming argument there.
I was about to beat myself up when I remembered what Mom had said after her diagnosis of cancer. “I don’t want you to feel guilty about anything.” Her paper-thin hands had held me tightly. A weight lifted from my shoulders.
When the race day arrived, I gave it my all for my mom and for all she had taught me and continued to teach me. As I ran, whenever I felt like slowing down, I pictured her cheering me on. Crossing the finish line, I was filled with her love and a sense of peace.
4. Why did the author ignore the email in the beginning
A.She felt it hard to finish the race.
B.She had no time to join in the event.
C.She thought the research meaningless.
D.She was reminded of her mother’s death.

B.The inspiration from her mom.
C.The pleasure in going for a run.
D.The success in organizing an event.
6. Which of the words can best describe the author’s mom
A.Considerate and polite.
B.Brave and humorous.
C.Strong-willed and caring.
D.Outgoing and patient.
7. What can we learn from the passage
A.Every cloud has a silver lining.
B.Where there is a will, there is a way.
C.Actions speak louder than words.
D.Love remembered gives strength to go on.
C
In recent years, the concept of “slow travel” has appeared as a reaction to the fast-paced, mass tourism that dominates (主宰) the industry. Slow travel encourages travelers to engage deeply with local cultures, stay longer in destinations, and form meaningful connections with local communities.
One of the key principles of slow travel is to reduce environmental impact. By choosing to stay in locally-owned accommodations, eating at family-run restaurants, and using public transportation or bicycles, travelers can greatly decrease their carbon footprint. For instance, a study found that tourists who engage in slow travel produce up to 70% less greenhouse gas emissions compared to those on traditional package tours.
Slow travel also allows for a deeper cultural understanding. Instead of rushing through tourist attractions, slow travelers take the time to participate in local traditions, learn about historical importance, and interact with locals. This not only enriches the travel experience but also provides economic benefits to local communities. In some rural areas, “slow travel” has helped preserve (保存) endangered crafts and save dying traditions.
However, slow travel is not without challenges. It requires more planning and flexibility. As travelers need to research local customs, transportation options, and authentic (真实的) experiences. Additionally, slow travel may not be feasible for everyone due to time or budget (预算) limit. For busy professionals or families with limited vacation days, spending weeks in a single destination may seem unrealistic.
Despite these challenges, the slow travel movement continues to grow. Travelers are becoming more aware of their environmental and cultural impact, and many are seeking more authentic and sustainable ways to explore the world. As a result, travel companies are starting to offer more slow-travel options, such as longer home-stays and cultural experience programs.
8. Which is the benefit of slow travel
A.It can save money on traveling.
B.It can be more environmentally friendly.
C.It can increase the income of travel companies.
D.It can allow travelers to visit more places hurriedly.
9. What can we learn about slow travel from the third paragraph
A.It has little impact on local economies.
B.It focuses on interactions with travelers.
C.It discourages travelers from learning about history.
D.It may contribute to the preservation of traditional crafts.
10. What does the underlined word “feasible” mean in this context
A.desirable
B.affordable
C.practical
D.classical
11. What can be inferred about the future of slow travel
A.It will cost less as time passes.
B.It will only be accessible to rich travelers.
C.It may become more popular in the future.
D.It will take the place of traditional tourism entirely.
D
Does your heart sink when you see a supermarket bin full of unopened, in-date food disposed of at closing time Mine does. That feeling only deepened after I volunteered at a UK food bank, where I watched families struggle to afford basic groceries, while perfectly good food was being abandoned by retailers (零售商) every single day.
Food waste is a global crisis troubling the retail and grocery sector. The UN Food and Agriculture Organization reports that roughly 14% of food produced worldwide is lost between harvest and retail, with a further 17% wasted in households, restaurants and retail stores. While many supermarkets have trialled donation plans or end-of-day discounts, UK-based app Too Good To Go has pioneered a creative solution: it lets customers buy “magic bags” of surplus (剩余的) food for just a third of the original price. Launched in 2016, the app now operates in 17 countries, with more than 75 million registered users.
Crucially, none of the food in the magic bags is unsafe or past its expiry (过期) date. Instead, this surplus food has a clear source: it is the stock that shops fail to sell before closing time each day. It mainly includes some extra bread, unsold pre-made salads, and other items that remain in stores but cannot be put on sale the next day. Many small cafes and bakeries report the app has not only reduced their food waste, but also attracted new, loyal customers.
Dr. Elena Marquez, lead researcher on the 2023 industry study into food waste reduction, notes that while the app cannot single-handedly fix the global food waste crisis, it delivers a win-win model for the sector. “This technology is a reminder that small, accessible actions can drive meaningful change,” she says. “It turns a pressing environmental and social challenge into value for businesses, families and our planet, and sets a powerful example for more sustainable solutions going forward.”
12. What can be learned about the author from the first paragraph
A.He shows great concern for needy families.
B.He once worked in a local supermarket.
C.He helped deliver food to local retailers.
D.He throws away unsold food at closing.
13. What do we know about the app Too Good To Go
A.It was created by the UN Food and Agriculture Organization.
B.It is used to promote new products.
C.It aims to prevent surplus food from being wasted.
D.It helps sell discounted food near its due date.
14. What is paragraph 3 mainly about
A.How magic bags are priced.
B.Why magic bag food is safe.
C.What food customers prefer.
D.Where surplus food comes from.
15. What can we infer about the app from the last paragraph
A.It has solved the global food crisis completely.
B.It has a positive and far-reaching influence.
C.It has only gained popularity in the UK market.
D.It has a leading role in global waste reduction.

五、书面表达(读后续写)
47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Uncle Li’s bookstore was a quiet island in the busy modern city. For many years, it had been a warm home for people who loved reading. The old wooden sign above the door read “Li’ s Books” in dark red letters. Time seemed to slow down the moment people opened a book there. Now, it was going to close.
The news made Tom, a quiet high school student who had grown up reading in the comfortable corners of the shop, feel very sad. He had spent many years reading in the cozy chairs of the shop. The smell of old paper felt like his own childhood, watching him grow up. He couldn’t imagine the street without the store’s warm, friendly light. When people in the neighborhood heard the news, everyone looked worried.
The reason for the closure was that a large development company had made a generous offer to buy the building for its potential as a trendy coffee house, a profitable upgrade. To the company, it was just business. Uncle Li was getting old and tired. He told Tom, “Maybe it’s time to let go. Young people today don’t read as much as before.” He sighed, resting his hand on an old storybook. “The World has moved on.”
On the last Saturday before closing, Tom came early. His bag was full of things he had kept from the store: a colorful bookmark he got at 10 years old, a receipt from his first book, and a photo of him and Uncle Li at a reading party. He picked up his favorite book,The Little Prince, from the shelf. Its cover was faded, but the pages were still in good shape. He saw Uncle Li was packing up everything.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150个左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Tom couldn’t let the store close — not without trying to change things.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
With the help of the neighbors, Tom’s plan to combine the bookstore and a coffee house began.

五、读后续写范文
Tom couldn’t let the store close — not without trying to change things. He gathered all the neighbors who loved Uncle Li’s bookstore and shared his idea: a mixed space of bookstore and coffee shop. They planned to talk with the development company to rent the building instead of selling it. Tom also collected many photos and stories of the bookstore to show the company its special value to local people.
With the help of the neighbors, Tom’s plan to combine the bookstore and a coffee house began. The company finally agreed to rent the house. Everyone volunteered to clean and decorate the store. Uncle Li kept all his old books, and small tables for coffee were placed beside bookshelves. The warm bookstore came back to life again, attracting more readers than ever before.
