Do English people live a life similar to ours? Here is something information for you to find

out the answer to this question by yourself.

Many English people would like to live in houses, not flats because most houses have gardens. They like growing vegetables and flowers when they have free time.

Most office workers start work at about nine in the morning and finish it at about five in

the afternoon, with an hour’s break at noon. They don’t go home for lunch. They just have quick meals near their offices. They usually have big meals at the weekend. After work, many English people like outdoor sports. They think sports are good for their health.

Children go to school at about 9:00 a.m. and go back home at about 3:30 p.m. Most

children have lunch at school. All children go to school when they are four or five years old.

Most shops open at about 9:00 a.m. and close at about 6:00 p.m. Usually they don’t close for lunch.

Chores were not popular at my house. My children didn’t like to do chores. They always saw me do chores, but they hardly ever helped me do them.

A year ago, I made a game called "The Endless Chore Game". It is really great. Here’s how the game works.

I make a card with forty squares (方框), and I write a different chore on each square. These chores can be easy and interesting like making dessert. Then my family rolls the dice (骰子) to decide what chores we have to do. The card also has a few squares with fun things, like watching TV and singing. If you are lucky, you can watch TV when the others are doing the chores.

My son likes the game very much. He goes to the kitchen happily every morning to do the game. It is really a good way to make my children do chores. You can have a try if you have the same problem with me.

Life in space is much different from life on earth. How do astronauts live in space?

Eating

In the past, astronauts could eat only small pieces of dried food. But now astronauts are able to eat more everyday food like fruit, vegetables and ice cream.

Sleeping

All the people in the ISS(国际空间站) have their own rooms. They have to tie (系) themselves to their beds, or they’ll fly away! That seems like a strange way to sleep, but astronauts say sleeping in space is really not too bad.

Exercising

This is more important in space than on earth. Astronauts exercise on bikes and other machines(机器) for about two hours every day. That way, they can still be healthy when they get back home.

Having fun

Astronauts can read books, play cards, listen to music or send e-mails to their friends and families when they aren’t working. Sometimes they just sit and look out of the window. It’s also much fun!

Astronauts are hardworking whether in space or on the earth. Though the work sometimes is difficult, they are still interested in it and love the job. Many people think their lives are very interesting and their dream jobs are to be the astronauts.

The expression “Go for it!” is a way of encouraging someone to try something. It means you should not worry about failure or be too careful. You should take a chance and be brave.

“Go for it!” gets its name from football. But it is not the football played in most countries such as England, France or Japan, but the kind of football played in the United States and Canada.

One of the most exciting times in football comes when a team has failed, after three tries, to move the ball forward ten yards. The team must make a very important decision.

The conservative (保守的) choice is to kick the ball and accept temporary （暂时的）defeat in order to get a good position for your team the next time it gets the ball. The more exciting choice, however, is to try a fourth and final time to get the remaining yards needed.

People now are certain to shout their advice. Some will shout, “Kick the ball!” But others will encourage the team to take a chance. “Go for it!” they will shout loudly.

In the 1980s, people began using this expression in many kinds of situations to encourage someone to act bravely.

There is no guarantee (保障) that the action you “Go for it!” will succeed. But that is the chance you take when you decide to go for it. You put your fears behind. You choose courage over safety. You hold your breath and go for it.

1.What does “Go for it!” mean?

B. You should take a chance and be brave.

C. You should go to school and ask teachers for help.

D. You should be very careful.
