Many people like to travel when they have time off from school or work. They might go to their hometown to see their family, or travel somewhere far. But not everyone does this, more and more people are choosing to take a“staycation”.

A staycation is a new word for a period of time when people stay at home on vacation or take day trips from their home to local(当地的) places of interest.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.

I had a staycation of my own over the summer. I slept late every day. I worked on music and played video games. I wasn't too lonely. I had my cat to play with,and I got together with some of my friends around the city.

Travelling is fun, but it's also nice to just stay at home and relax. It's cheaper as well, since I don't have to pay for travel. And you can choose to do something you like. If you want, just do nothing. There's nothing wrong with that.

You can find trees all over the world. One tree can be the home to thousands of living things. It keeps them away from other animals and bad weather.

This kind of beak can help them find insects in the tees. They are sure that forests are the best place for them to live in.

Over half of the world's plants and animals live in the rainforests. But every year, more and more trees in rainforests are cut down for food and the lands are turned into fields for growing rice and vegetables. The rainforests in some parts of the world disappeared. Today, too many trees are still being cut down.

Some scientists say that one kind of animal dies out every half an hour as the rainforests disappear. Many animals need the rainforests to live in. When trees are cut down, they have no place to live in or to get food from. Then many animals are made to live near towns and cities to get food.

Do you have true friends? Do you want to know better between you and your friends? There are three different kinds of friends:“pest friends”“guest friends”and“best friends”

The first kind of friend is simply acquaintances, and all you usually know about them is their names. You may meet this kind of friend at school, at work, or on the bus, but you don't miss them when they' re not around. When this kind of friend does something bad, you don't tell them. That is why they are called“pest friends”.

The second kind of friend could also be called“guest friends”. They are closer than acquaintances, but not as close as true friends. You know their names,a little of what they like or dislike, and a little of their family histories. You usually have a few things in common, but you don't talk about anything deep, such as your wishes or fears(害怕), and they don't open up to you how they really feel.

The last kind of friend, the“best friend”, is the one you know the deepest.You' re like family, and know everything about each other. You have no problem staying at each other's houses, and you share your deepest feelings and thoughts.They will correct you when you' re wrong, and though they may not be perfect, they will always care about you, and hardly ever do anything bad to hurt you.

We all have our pest, guest, and best friends. We should value all friendships and remember, all best friends start out as just acquaintances.

16. If you and David are neighbours and classmates, and do things together, but don't share your feelings, what kind of friends are you?

A. Pest friends.     B. Guest friends.    C. Best friends.      D. Not friends.

A. People you know a little.          B. People you know well.

18. What does the fourth paragraph mainly tell us?

A. What a“best friend” is B. How to make a best friend.

C. What a best friend can't do for you. D. How to learn from your best friends.

A. Pest friends are more important than guest friends.
