Have you heard about "Survival (生存)
Holidays"? "Survival Holidays" is
for children to go into the lonely
place for exciting activities. Now
about 1,100 companies are allowed
to take children into the great
outdoors without their parents. The
reason why people like "Survival
Holidays" is that they think being
close to nature is good for children.
Many children in big cities spend all
time watching TV and playing
computer games. "Survival
Holidays" gives them an important
change.
Is "Survival Holidays" a wonderful
idea? Maybe it is. Children need more free time to play. They need to be left on their own, without adults disturbing (打扰) them. Parents care too much about their children. They like to see the children being busy with activities that are controlled by adults, but children don't know what to do when they are in danger. Even something like crossing a small river seems to be a hard challenge. Children are not comfortable with danger. Even small danger like getting their feet wet or falling down seems very terrible to them. Many people think the survival activities are good for children. Even years later, they will still remember what they have learned. Some have learned to stay calm in different times. Some have learned how to keep safe. Others have learned how
to work in a team. All these skills will help them a lot in their lives. Answer the following questions according to what you read.
51. Is”Survival Holidays” for children or parents? _____________________________________ __
52.Why do people like “Survival
Holidays”?
_________________________________
_______
53What do the children in big cities usually do?
_________________________________
________
54.How do children feel when they are in
danger?
