  People in Britain are living longer and are 1 , with the 2 that more and more money is being spent on consumer goods, 3 the latest statistics.

  But while people 4 appear to be healthier and wealthier, an analysis of 5 activities suggests they are also lazier. 6 the most popular pastime is watching television, with 98 percent of homes having 7 one set and over a third having a video recorder.

  Other pastimes 8 listening to music, gardening, sports, visiting friends or going out for a meal. The 56.8 million people of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland 9 an 10 12 million household pets.

  Most of the homes now have central heating, washing machines, refrigerators, telephones and even cars.

  Britain are also 11 more foreign holidays. United Kingdom residents took over 17 12 holidays overseas in 1986, 13 15.75 million in 1985, and the most popular destinations were 14 Spain, France and Greece.

  More people are eating meals out and 15 lifestyles have changed, the consumption of take--away meals, convenience foods and so--called fast food has also 16   . Over the past 25 years, consumption of 17   coffee, processed foods, fruit and vegetables has risen 18 home consumption of beef, lamb, bread, potatoes, butter, sugar and tea has 19   .

  Alcohol consumption is continuing its rise but the types of drinks taken has changed. Beer remains the most popular, but lager(淡啤酒)now 20 more than half of beer sales and there has been a switch from whisky to other spirits.

  And those of us who survive and prosper can expect to live to the age of 71 for men and 77 for women--a year longer than in 1985.

      Mr. Harris worked in Dover, but then he changed his job, and he and   his wife 1 to another town. They did not have many friends there,   2 they soon met a lot of interesting people, and after a few weeks   they often went to 3 or to parties at other people's houses.

       Then Mrs. Harris said to her husband, "We've been 4 lots of other people's houses, and now we must    5 them to our house, mustn't we?"

       "Yes, 6 ," answered her husband. "A big party will be the   easiest, won't it?"

       Mrs. Harris said, "Yes, I'll invite all our friends here to a 7 party on December 5th."

       "How many will that be?" Mr. Harris asked. "Don't invite too many."   Mrs. Harris was beginning to write the 8 when her husband saw that   she was writing, "Party: 6:30 9 8:30 pm."

       "That isn't very 10 , is it?" he said. "You're telling our   guests that they must 11 at 8:30." So Mrs. Harris    12 wrote, "Party: 6:30 pm." A lot of guests came, and they all had a    13 time, so they did not go home at 8:30.    14 , they were still there 15 when the door bell rang and a    16 arrived. He said, "You must stop making    17 , because 18 has complained (抱怨)."

         Mr. Harris said he did not want to    19 with the policeman, so everyone went home. They were    20 to have to go. When Mr. and Mrs.   Harris were 21 again, she said to him, "That was a    22 , wasn't it? Who complained about the 23 ?"     " 24 did," Mr. Harris answered in a    25 voice.

  “I didn't get in, but I'm on the waiting list.”

  “Well, at least it isn't   4  , ” he said brightly.

  “Yeah, but   5  , I don't want to be on the waiting list; I want to be   6  .No one gets in off the waiting list.It's a way of saying ‘Thanks for   7  ’.”

  “Then let's go out there and tell them so.”

  Upset and annoyed, I   9   myself in my room.However,my father's advice kept   10   in my head.I thought about it for a few days, finally coming to the   11   that he was right.And the next day I seated myself across from Mr.Luis Soto, my admissions officer.

  “What can I do for you, Nacie? ” he asked pleasantly.

  Mr.Soto looked me over for a minute before he smiled broadly.

  “OK, that is the kind of thing we love to hear.Congratulations, you’re in.”

  It was so   17   and I asked, “I'm sorry? ”

  “We want people in the class who want to be here, who will   18   the best of this education.I'm glad you came to talk   19   to me.I'm happy to offer you a position in the Class of 2009.”
