Many people like going on vacation. It’s a good chance to relax, visit new places and see new things. But while planning a trip, you have to decide whether you want to travel with family or friends, or just alone.

Traveling with family can be very cheap or even free if parents pay. However, there may be many arguments. One friend told me that both she and her sister were in tears after arguing on vacation. In my family, Dad always wants to go to a museum. Mom would like to stay in the hotel. My sister likes to buy clothes. As for me, the coffee shop is a great place.

Traveling with friends would be fun. When you are traveling with friends, you can do more different things than you do with family. It is a way to strengthen a friendship. You can learn more about your friends. You can become closer to each other. But money always plays an important role if you go on vacation with your friends. It is normal for you to have different budgets (预算). What’s more, there is also a lot of compromise (妥协) while you’re planning where to stay and what to eat.

When it comes to choosing whom to travel with, there is another choice: traveling alone. Traveling alone has advantages (优点). For example, you do not have to compromise on your budget. You can choose what you want to do, and it’s easier for you to make new friends.

Most children don’t enjoy doing chores. They like playing computer games instead of cleaning the rooms. But in Australia, Jim and Robert’s mother, Mrs Black, has good and proper methods to get their children to do housework. Here is an example.

“Mum, have you worked out next week’s chores? Let Jim and me choose the cards. I can’t wait. It’s fun!”

When Robert shouted out, his mother had already put all the cards on their big table. On the cards, there are some words like these, “sweep the floor, clean your bedroom, help Mum cook, wash vegetables, make beds, feed the fish, cut the wood, clean the bathroom” and many others. Jim and Robert chose two cards each day from Monday to Friday. Then they would hang them on the weekday task board. Jim likes to clean the bathroom, so he picked up the card “clean the bathroom”. Robert loves to make the bed so he picked up his favourite card. Jim again picked up “wash vegetables” and Robert chose “feed the fish”. Soon the two boys were happy to take away all the cards.

To help the children do chores, their mother thought hard and came up with this idea. Of course, the parents did the chores at weekends and left Jim and Robert two days free.

21．Most children like ________.

A．cleaning rooms B．doing chores

C．playing computer games D．washing vegetables

22．Who came up with the card idea?
