One of the most traditional British holidays was the “seaside holiday”. Families got on a train or into a car and travelled to seaside towns nearby to sunbathe on the beach,buy ice-creams and eat fish and chips and so on.
In the late 1970s,more and more British people started travelling to other countries in Europe for their summer holidays (July〜August) because the weather wasn’t very good,even in summer. The “package holiday”wasverypopularwithmostfamilies.
In the 1980s and 1990s,young people in the UK became richer,so many of them travelled to countries all over the world for their holidays.
These years,after the world financial crisis (金融危机) ，most British people do not have enough money to spend their holidays all over the world. They again begin to choose to stay in their own homes and go on a few day trips. They don't want to spend money on hotels any more. They call this kind of vacation a “staycation”.

A
Almost every day,we use a computer to search information,send e-mails and play games. But everything would not go so well without its friend :small,clickable mouse.
In 1968,US inventor Douglas Engelbart showed a cute machine to the public. It was a small wooden box with two metal wheels to roll back and forth. On top of it,there was a small red button that you could click. The machine was connected to the computer with a cable that looked like a “tail”. That's how it got its name “mouse”. This was the first mouse that could fit into a user's hand
Engelbart wanted computers to be more user-friendly. And he certainly succeeded. The coming of the mouse changed the way in which humans work together with computers. Instead of typing orders with a keyboard,users can now go faster with a mouse.
But the mouse didn,t become popular until more than 10 years later. Apple's CEO Steve Jobs showed Applet Lisa computers with a mouse during the early 1980s. Since then,the mouse has been made in many shapes,sizes and colors,but allbased on the idea of Engelbart^ design.
Although there are touchpads (触摸板) and touch-sensitive screens,the mouse is still an important part of all modern computers.

A. in 1968 B. during the early 1980s

If you ask someone why he or she wears clothes,the answer will probably be “To keep w 1 and to cover my body. ” That's true. But people also want to look attractive and a 2 successful to others.
If people only wore clothes for warmth and to cover their bodies,most clothes would be simple and cheap. In most Western c 3 ,however,clothes are sometimes very expensive. The main r 4 for this is not the cost of the cloth or the cost of m 5 the clothes. It is m 6 because of fashion.
Fashion is always c 7 . This means that people who want to be fashionable have to buy new clothes every few months,e 8 if last month's clothes have only been worn once or twice. Some people have g 9 wardrobes full of clothes. These clothes may have hardly been worn but are no 1 10 in fashion. So,being fashionable can be a very expensive hobby.

Most people want to be happy,but few know how to find happiness. Money and success alone do not bring lasting happiness. Aristotle,a Greek thinker,said, “Happiness depends upon ourselves." In other words,we make our own happiness. Here are a few suggestions to help you be happier.
The first secret of happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life. Too often,we spend so much time thinking about the future —for example,getting into college or getting a good job—that we fail to enjoy the present. You should enjoy life's simple pleasures,such as reading a good book,listening to your favorite music,or spending time with close friends. People who have several close friends often live happier and healthier lives.
Another secret to living a happy life is to be active. Many people go dancing or play sports. People can forget about their problems and only think about the activities.
Finally,many people find happiness in helping others. Studies show that people feel good when they spend their time helping others. If you want to feel happier,do good things for someone. You can help a friend with his or her studies,go shopping to buy food for an elderly person,or simply help out around the house by washing the dishes.
