1．阅读理解

In modern China, people's lives are becoming better and better. Many people don't stay at home during their vacation （假期）. They want to go out to see something different or do something interesting. So people living in the countryside （乡村） come to cities and people from cities go to the countryside for vacation. During the vacation, trains, buses and planes are all very busy. It is very hard to buy train or plane tickets. So many people take buses or drive cars to travel.

Like many people, my family love nature （大自然）. We like spending time in the beautiful countryside. But not all vacations in the countryside are nice. It is Saturday. My father drives us to the countryside for vacation. There are too many cars on the street, so we have to move very slowly. It takes us about an hour to get out of the city. Then after fifty minutes' drive, we come to a hill. Not far from it, there is a lake. The water is very clean. And there are many people fishing. It is a good place to have a picnic. We take the food, fruit and drink out of the car. We sit down under a big tree on the hill and begin to eat. Before we finish eating, it suddenly starts to rain hard. We have to run back to our car. Then we drive back home. What a bad vacation!
