【篇⼀】Unit 5
How long is your day
'Have you finished your homework yet?'
'Why haven't you finished your homework?'
How often do you hear these questions in your house?
How do you feel about homework?
Children worldwide now do more homework hours than they did twenty-five years ago—but there are huge variations.
In some parts of the world, even very young children have a lot of homework.
They come home from school, and they work for three or four hours before bedtime.
In other parts of the world, children don't have much homework until they are a bit older.
At the same time, many young people worldwide have extra classes after school.
One way or another, many children 'work' twelve or fourteen hours a day. Is this really necessary?
How much homework do you have? How much time do you really spend on it? How long is your day?
【篇⼆】译⽂
“你做完作业了吗？”
“你为什么还没有做完作业？”
你在家⾥经常听到这样的问题吗？
你怎么看待作业？
全世界的孩⼦如今⽐25年前花更多的时间做作业，但是各地的情况差别很⼤。

在⼀些地⽅．即使很⼩的孩⼦也有很多作业。

他们放学回家后要花3或4个⼩时写作业，然后才能睡觉。

在其他地⽅，孩⼦直到⼤⼀些作业才多起来。

同时，全世界很多年轻⼈放学后还要上额外的课。

很多孩⼦以这样或那样的⽅式⼀天“⼯作”12或14个⼩时。

这真的有必要吗？
你有多少作业，你写作业要花多长时间，你的⼀天有多长？
【篇三】Unit 6
Bird-brained
Karen: Have you done your homework yet, Lucy?
Lucy: I'm just taking a break, Mum. I've found this really strange story on the eNews Website. Come and have a look.
An eight-year-old peacock in Shropshire has fallen hopelessly in love with a petrol pump.
Every day for the last three years, Mr.P., the peacock, has made the three-hundred-metre journey along the main road from his home to the busy petrol station.
There, he opens up his tail feathers, and shows off to a line of petrol pumps.
The pumps make a clicking noise when someone is filling up. To Mr.P., this sounds just like an admiring peahen.
One pump in particular has won Mr.P.'s admiration. He has been faithful to this pump since he was five. Mr. P has lost interest in the peahens at home. Clearly, they can't compete with the glamorous petrol pump.【篇四】译⽂
卡伦：露西，你作业做完了吗？
露西：妈妈，我稍微休息⼀下。

我在电⼦新闻站上看到了这个⾮常奇怪的故事。

过来看看。

什罗普郡⼀只8岁⼤的孔雀⽆可救药地爱上了⼀个汽油加油泵。

3年来，P先⽣，那只孔雀，每天都要从它的家沿着主路⾛300⽶到忙碌的加油站去。

在那⾥，他对着⼀排汽油加油泵开屏炫耀。

当有⼈加油时，油泵就会发出咔哒声。

对P先⽣来说，这听起来就像是⼀只仰慕他的雌孔雀发出的声⾳。

⼀只油泵特别赢得了P先⽣的欢⼼，他从5岁起就对这只油泵情有独钟。

P先对家⾥的雌孔雀失去了兴趣。

显然，她们是⽆法与光彩夺⽬的油泵相媲美的。
