Question

【题目】 How do students spend their spare time after finishing their homework? Watch TV, play computer games, or go outside to relax? Here’s a good example.

Tim and Kerry Meek are both teachers. They live in the UK with their two daughters: eleven-year-old Amy and nine-year-old Ella. Recently, the Meek family has become the focus of the whole country after they Completed 100 different outdoor ctivities in one year.

The Meek couple didn’t want their children to spend all their free time in front of the TV and become “couch potatoes”. So about one year ago, the Meeks decided that watching TV and playing computer games were not permitted. Instead, they set 100 tasks for the two girls to do outside. Although Mr. and Mrs. Meek are not outdoor activity fans, they took part in all the activities to encourage their daughters. It turns out that the two sisters really had a good time joining activities.

Every holiday and weekend, whether it’s sunny, rainy or snowy, the Meeks’ would set off to try the activities on their list, including hiking, sailing, climbing, skiing, and so on. The two little girls not only had a wonderful time, but also learned a lot of skills from the activities. They were even able to stand up in front of their school to give a talk for charity. “ Our friends spend a lot of their free time doing things which are harmful to their health.up Luckily, we’ve had the chance to experience something different.” Amy and Ella also helped their parents to draw a new list of challenges for the next 12 months.

【2】细节理解题。根据第四段第一、二行Every holiday and weekend, whether it’s sunny, rainy or snowy, the Meeks’ would set off to try the activities on their list, including hiking, sailing, climbing, skiing, and so on.“每逢节假日和周末，无论是晴天、下雨天还是下雪天，Meek一家都会出发去尝试清单上的活动，包括徒步旅行、航海、登山、滑雪等。”可知每逢节假日和周末，Meek一家都会去户外运动。故答案填Every holiday and weekend。

【3】翻译题。根据本句的句型人+spend +(时间/金钱)+(on)doing sth“某人花费时间/金钱做某事”，然后which引导的定语从句来修饰things，be harmful to意为“对……有害”，故答案填我们的朋友花了大量的业余时间做了对他们的身体有害的事情。

【4】主观题。根据文章第一段第一行How do students spend their spare time after finishing their homework?“学生做完作业后如何打发业余时间？”可知本文是围绕这个问题展开的，而Meek一家在业余时间做户外运动来打发他们的业余时间，以及在户外运动中我们将学到很多东西，故答案可以为1、We should do more outdoor exercises to keep healthy/fit in our spare time.2、We can get a lot of skills /learn a lot from outdoor activities.(开放式题目,言之有理即可)。

【5】主旨大意题。通读全文，本文主要讲述的是Meek一家如何打发他们的业余时间，或者是学生们如何打发他们的业余时间？或者为度过业余时间的好的例子，故答案可以为A good example of spending spare time./ How the Meeks spend their spare time./ How the students spend their spare time.
