It’s a good chance to work on different activities that you don’t have much time to do during the rest of the year. We asked about 2,000 people what they would do during the summer vacation. Most of the surveytakers agreed that the summer vacation was a break from homework and they could relax. Alexis said, “At school, I’m really tired, so during the summer vacation I can read books and do many outdoor activities.” Amy is in high school. After school, she sometimes works in a cafe during the school year. She told us, “It’s a chance to relax after a hard school year—sleep more and see my friends more.” We also asked them if they would be too busy. About half (52%) of the surveytakers said they were busy during the summer vacation but still had time to relax. And that is exactly what a vacation should be like. But not everyone said their summer vacation was the right balance(平衡) between being busy and relaxing. Many thought that they sometimes felt too bored. How bored or busy people feel during the summer vacation depends on how old they are. Surveytakers under 15 were more likely(可能的) to be bored. Among them, 40% said they were bored and only 10% thought they were too busy. 1．What does the underlined word “surveytakers” in Paragraph 2 mean? A．People who take the survey. B．People who make the survey. C．People who write a survey report. D．People who read the survey report. 2．What does Amy want to do during the summer vacation? A．To find a new job.

A．feel bored B．are too busy to relax C．have time to relax though being busy D．spend all the time enjoying themselves 4．How people feel during the summer vacation depends on ________. A．how old they are B．what they do for a living C．where they live D．when they have the summer vacation 5．Who most probably answered the questions in the survey? A．Scientists. B．Doctors. C．Students. D．Teachers. 【答案】1．A 2．D 3．C 4．A 5．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍暑假活动计划的报告。 1．词义猜测题。根据“We asked about 2,000 people what they would do during the summer vacation.”可知是做了调查，给出答案的人自然是受调查者，所以“surveytakers”为“接受调查的人”。故选A。 2．细节理解题。根据“It’s a chance to relax after a hard school year—sleep more and see my friends more.”可知，Amy在假期期间想多睡觉，多去看望朋友。故选D。 3．细节理解题。根据“About half (52%) of the surveytakers said they were busy during the summer vacation but still had time to relax.”可知，约有一半的受访者表示，他们在暑假期间很忙，但仍有时间放松。故选C。 4．细节理解题。根据“How bored or busy people feel during the summer vacation depends on how old they are.”可知，人们在暑假期间感到多么无聊或忙碌取决于他们的年龄。故选A。 5．推理判断题。根据文章中的Alexis，Amy都是学生，并且有暑假，以及“Most of the surveytakers agreed that the summer vacation was s a break from homework and they could relax.”可知，大多数的调查者都认为暑假不用做家庭作业，他们可以放松，由此可推测参加调查的人可能是学生。故选C。 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ Unit 1 Happy Holiday 单元话题阅读理解练习 Unit 1 Happy Holiday单元话题：节假日活动 本资料共10篇专题训练，从上到下依次按照难度分为基础语篇巩固练和重难语篇提升练 基础语篇巩固练 （23-24八年级上·四川宜宾·阶段练习）Chinese students only have long holidays in summer and winter.

Some people might travel around their city, visiting local parks and museums. Others might try countryside trips and take part in local festivals. People like me love to just stay at home.

Most of the surveytakers agreed that the summer vacation was a break from homework and they could relax. Alexis said, “At school, I’m really tired, so during the summer vacation I can read books and do many outdoor activities.” Amy is in high school. After school, she sometimes works in a cafe during the school year. She told us, “It’s a chance to relax after a hard school year—sleep more and see my friends more.” We also asked them if they would be too busy.
