Three men from the Bennett family talk about how life has changed over three generations. George, the grandfather, 65 years old
When I see my son staying with his son, I think they have a good relationship(关系)─ it wasn’t like that in my day. My father was very strict, and we had to obey him all the time.
When I was a boy, I had to walk six kilometres to school. There was no other way of getting there.
At home we didn’t have a television, so we had to make our own entertainment(娱乐). I spent all my free time outside playing football.
But we couldn’t play football on Sundays because we had to go to church. I left school when I was fourteen and went to work in a bakery. Martin, the son, 44 years old
When I was growing up, my father was always at work. When he came home, we couldn’t disturb him because he was tired.
Because my father left school very early and felt sorry for it later, he wanted me to do well at school. I had to show him my homework every night and I could only watch television at the weekend.
When I was eighteen, I got a place at university. My parents didn’t have to pay for my study because the government did.
I didn’t go home very often, even during the holidays. I preferred to
spend time travelling around. Brian, the grandson, 19 years old
I’ve always had a very close relationship with my dad and I don’t have to hide anything from him.
When I was at school, I had a lot of freedom. When I went out, I didn’t have to come home at a certain time ─ my parents believed me.
I’m at college now, and my parents have to pay for my studies, but I have to work in the evenings to pay for any additional entertainment and expensive things I want.
I think it’s wrong that my parents have to pay for my studies. I think colleges and universities should be free for everybody.
71. George’s father was a strict man and George always had to obey him. 72. George lived six kilometres away from school, so he went there by bike. 73. Martin left school very early because he didn’t do well at school. 74. Martin watched TV every night after he had finished his homework.
75. Brian never hides anything from his father because they are close to each other. 76. Brian has to pay for his studies at college himself, so he needs to work in the evenings.

The water tap was leaking(漏水)again, and the noise was driving Cassie crazy.
Cassie looked at her watch. It was nearly nine o’clock. She climbed out of bed and stood on a chair by the shelf. Her mother’s Mr. Fix-It Book was on the top shelf. Cassie stepped down quietly. She read the book quickly until she found the page she was looking for, and then began to read carefully.
Next, Cassie opened a box in the kitchen and picked out the tools she needed ─ a hammer, a wrench, and several small things. It was no easy job for her to do the repair, and she tried several times. Finally, the water tap was in pieces. One by one, she carefully laid
them out on the table. That way she would know how they went back. While this was going on, her cat walked over to watch what she was doing.
Cassie worked late into the night. At one point, she thought she was done. Oops! A small piece that she had forgotten still lay on the table. Slowly Cassie took the water tap apart(分开)one more time. This time she made sure everything was in place. She turned the water tap on and then off. One... two... three... She waited a full minute. There was no leak! Cassie smiled and put the tools back into the box. Then she went back into bed.
The next morning, Dad was in the kitchen when Cassie got up. “Notice anything, Dad?” she asked.
He looked around and listened. “Hmm, something’s missing... I can’t find out what it is... Wait, it’s too quiet in here!”

A survey has been published which shows that British people don’t like their neighbours very much. 80% of the people who took part in the survey feel that their neighbours pay attention to other’s feelings. 25% don’t talk to the people who live next door and 10% don’t even know their names. In fact, one million people in Britain would like to because they don’t get along well with their neighbours.
According to the survey, the problem is noise. Many of the complaints about noise came from people who live in flats and old houses. These places often have thin walls which can’the noise from the next door.
The other main problems are disagreements(不和)about car parking spaces, and old people time. In one case, people who live in the same building haven’t talked to each other for fifteen years. Sometimes the disagreements end in violence. In one of the worst cases, a man killed a neighbour because he kept parking in “his space”.
Another survey shows that 90% of the neighbours never share a meal, 80% have never had a drink and 20% have never even spoken. However, when neighbours become each other’, they are often ready to offer help, as we can see in many parts of the world.
One solution to such problems is to talk about them with a professional organization and, if necessary, to sign a written agreement. Now people can get this service in more and more towns.
E. Answer the questions(根据短文内容回答下列问题):(14分)
Mary Donaldson is worried about her 16-year-old daughter, Sophia. Six months ago, Sophia came back from a party, upset and unhappy. From then on, she thinks of nothing but how to lose weight and become beautiful. She refuses to eat and keeps on doing exercise. Sophia had always been a little heavy, so when she decided to go on a diet, Mary encouraged her. She felt that her daughter would look more attractive if she lost 10 kilograms. However, Sophia has lost over 20 kilograms until now. Her eating and exercising habits are having a harmful effect on her health. She is too thin and is often sick.
Her mother is trying to prevent her from going on a diet and losing weight, but Sophia thinks that she is still too heavy and refuses to start eating as usual. Sophia’s mind is full of the idea of looking like a model(模特). Every day she goes to a club to do
exercise. When she is not there, she spends her time reading magazines like Fashion & Beauty(《时尚与美》). The models in these magazines are very thin and beautiful. Sophia says, “If I look like these models, I will be happy and all the boys will like me.”
Mary doesn’t know how to help her daughter. She feels sorry for having encouraged her at first, because Sophia no longer feels good or pleased with her body. She’s afraid that Sophia will
