Good evening and welcome to World Views. Earlier in the day, we spoke to three different people about family traditions. Here’s what they said.

① Christmas presents

One of our traditions is to do with Christmas presents. Most people open their presents in the morning, but we open ours in the late afternoon after Christmas lunch. It’s really nice to do so because opening the presents in the morning makes the rest of the day, you know, it’s boring. Well, that’s what we think.

② Birthday cakes

One tradition we have is to do with birthdays, all our birthday cakes have to be carrot cakes. My dad has to make the cake. He even has to make the cake for his own birthday! Perhaps it’s because my mum doesn’t like other tastes cakes. And the funny thing is, we never have carrot cakes at any other time-only birthdays.

③ Special day

We had a tradition in our family for the last day of the summer holidays. The day before we had to go back to school, mum and dad would always take us out for the day. In the morning, we’d get up early and go for a long walk. Next, we’d go for lunch in our favorite restaurant. Then, to the cinema to see a film. Finally, home, where we’d play games. It made going back to school so much better.

完形填空 先通读下面的短文,掌握其大意,然后从下面四个答案中选择可以填入相应空白处的最佳答案。

My mother used to say things just to make me . Like most teenagers, I thought I knew . And what I didn’t know, I didn’t want to . For example, if I said I was going to a movie, my mother would roll(转动)her eyes. On my way out, she’d shout: “You need to slow yourself down before something happens! You don’t want to learn that the hard way!” I didn’t know what that . I thought she just wanted me to stay home.

Many years later I had three teenagers my own. They thought they knew everything. I would say the same things to them my mom. That’s when I first saw it. My mother wasn’t trying to make me stay at home. She was trying to help me.

Why do we always have to learn things “the hard way”? Why can’t we just accept our wisdom? It’s a good lesson for anyone. Obviously(显然),I still haven’t learned it. Yesterday, I stepped out of the shower when I heard my cell phone in the kitchen. Grabbing(抓) a towel, I ran the house. I grabbed the phone and hit my left foot against the table. The X-ray showed that I’d broken two toes.

We all need to slow ourselves down once in a while, before something bad does it for us. My mother was right about a lot of things. I wish I could have told her.
