BI am walking through the winter park where the trees stand cold and bare (光秃秃的). The yellow leaves have fallen to the ground. Now, a group of women gather at the sides of a path. In the cold winter, theyre moving their arms and legs to a rhythm (节奏). They are, of course, the dancing aunties.It seems that if you go to any public space around China, youre likely to see these dancing aunties. When I first came to China, it was one of the first things that annoyed me. Thats because in Britain dancing in public is not a cultural habit. You wont see any age group swinging their arms and tapping their feet in a park. Usually, they just take a walk for exercise.Now and again the dancing aunties have hit the headlines (头条新闻). Some people find them annoying. But others respect their right to dance in public. Most of them are middle-aged. They finally have some free time to do whatever they like. There is no more work, and their kids have left.Personally, I like seeing these women enjoying themselves. They remind us of the importance of exercise as we get older. Besides, most of them have raised the whole families. Now it is their time to have fun and enjoy some peace.()36.What are the women doing in the cold winter? _.A.They are walking.B.They are singing.C.They are working.D.They are dancing.()37.What did the writer think of dancing aunties at first? _.A.Beautiful.

They sometimes have different ideas about living, working and having fun. But in one special program in New York, adults and teenagers live together in peace.Each summer 200 teenagers and 50 adults live together for eight weeks as members of a special work groupEveryone works for several hours each day. The purpose of this program is not just to keep busy. It is also to find meaning and enjoyment in work. Some teenagers work on the farms near the village. Some learn to make furniture and to build houses. The adults teach them these skills.There are several free hours each day. Weekends are free, too. During the free time, some of the teenagers learn photography and painting. Others sit around and talk or sing. Each teenager chooses his own way to spend his free time. When people live together, rules are always necessary. In this program the teenagers and the adults make the rules together. If someone breaks a rule, the whole group will discuss the problem. They ask, “Why did it happen? What should we do about it?”One of the teenagers has this to say about the experience, “You dont only think about yourself.

He is a Frenchman who has been living in Finland since 2006. “The idea came to me in a restaurant when I felt a bit sleepy after a meal. I thought it would be so nice to have a place for resting and I started to think what it could be like.” He said. After finding people liked his idea, Mast opened the Naphouse. People will be given slippers, a pillow, a blanket and even a teddy bear before entering the blue coloured nap room. The peoples sleeping time there is about one and a half hours on average. “A lot of different kinds of people come here: students, teenagers, working people and some mothers with babies,” Mast said. People can use the nap room for free, but some of them choose to make a donation to keep the Naphouse going.
