What do you usually do on weekends? Go to the movies? Watch shows? Or take some after-school classes? Children today seem busy doing many kinds of things on weekends. But years ago, children spent the weekends in a different way.
In the past, children had less homework and they didn’t have to take after-school classes. So for most children, the weekends were a good time for them to have fun. There were fewer movie theaters or amusement parks(游乐场),so children often played outdoors. In the countryside, children ran on the farm, swam in the river, climbed mountains and picked fruits from the trees. In the town, children hung out with friends, rode bicycles and played games anywhere.
Of course there were many other things children would do on weekends. For example, they usually helped their parents with housework or farm work. They might clean the house, do some washing, grow vegetables or feed the chickens. Some children even cooked for family. And the older children in the family would take care of their younger brothers and sisters if their parents were still busy working. After dinner, children often got together in a house with a television——in the past, there might be only one or two televisions in the neighborhood. They always watched TV with a lot of interest although there were much fewer shows.
41. What did children in the countryside do for fun? List(列举) two activities.
________________________________________________________________________________
42. Why did the children do housework or farm work?

43. Where did the children often get together after dinner?

44. What do you think of the children’s weekends in the past? Write 30 words or more.
