Activities For Families with Children
There are plenty of things to do and see around Cusco, Peru that children will enjoy.
Horse riding
Many children will enjoy the opportunity to ride a horse. The Happy Ranch horse
farm organizes horse rides through the countryside passing wheat fields and small towns,
wooden huts, open air markets and cooking outside over a fire. Price for a horse ride is
US $ 12 per person.
Cooking class
If you enjoy local food, taking a cooking class could be fun. Several restaurants
offer classes, which start with a visit to a local market to buy fresh ingredients (原料).
Wearing a cook’s hat, children can help washing and cutting. Prices for a 3 hours class
start at US $ 13 per person.
Hot -air balloon
A hot- air balloon ride will give you great views of the city. The balloon goes up
about 200 meters if weather conditions are OK, less if conditions are windy. The
balloon will stay at that altitude for about 10 minutes. Prices are US $ 20 for an adult,
half price for children.
Ceramics class
A fun activity for kids is taking a ceramics class at the Fine Arts Center. With the
help of an experienced potter, kids can make their own creation on the potter’s wheel
from clay. The basic clay class costs US $15 per person and takes 1.5 hours.

Washington is home to lots of trees and lots of wood-burning stoves(火炉) too. But
what if you live there and can't cut wood or can't afford to pay anyone to do it? Luckily,
Shane McDaniel and his twin sons, Harrison and Henry McDaniel, 21, are happy to lend
an ax(斧子).The three men cut truckloads of wood and then give the wood to those in
need.
The idea was put forward by Shane as a father-son bonding project. He wanted to
pass along the feeling his father Jackson and he shared while they cut wood, so he and
the twins spent the summer doing their deeds. The result was a great wall of wood piled
up around their house in Lake Stevens, about 35 miles outside of Seattle. To buy that
much would cost about $ 10,000.
It was too much for the McDaniels to use themselves, and when the weather turned
cold that November, Shane started thinking of others. He posted a request on a social
networkling site:”IF
YOU ARE IN NEED OF FIREWOOD AND CANNOT AFFORD IT, PLEASE PM
[ personal message ] ME…Please help me and my boys make sure NO ONE GOES
COLD IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD．"
The response was immediate. One man offered to donate a wood-burning stove.
Others raced over with more wood for the pile. Single dad Peter Ticer, 29, and his four-
year-old daughter depend on a wood-burning stove as their unique source of heat. so it
was a relief to receive a truckload of firewood from the McDaniels before the
holidays.”To get that much wood moved me to tears" he said.“So much stress and
anxiety off my shoulders. I couldn't be more thankful."
Giving is the reward. It has nothing to do with how well its received; it's about how
much it's needed.
24. Which of the following best describes the McDaniels?
A．Energetic. B．Hard-working. C．Considerate. D．Mean.
25. What does”father-son" in paragraph 2 refer to?
A．Shane and Harrison. B．Jackson and Shane.
C．Harrison and Henry. D．Shane and the twins.
26. Why did Shane post the message on the Internet?
A．To advertise the wood they cut. B ．To help those in need.
C．To get wood-burning stoves. D．To ask for others' help.
27. What is the main idea of the text?
A．A family's firewood warms their neighborhood.
B．Cutting down trees teaches a family life lessons.
C．No one goes cold in the McDaniels' community.
D．Giving is a tradition of cheering up those in need.
C
Kids are three times more likely to choose to be Internet celebrities than astronauts, a
survey found recently. Many are already on their way --- more and more children are now
making and sharing videos on social media.
Meanwhile, education experts worry that going after Internet fame won’t be good for
children in the long run. Their biggest concern is that kids don’t know how being on the
Internet today might affect them in the future. The parts of the brain that people use to make
decisions don’t fully mature until around age 25, so children cannot imagine how their future
might be affected by what they share now.
What’s worse, some parents, who are crazy about becoming famous on their own, can’t
watch out for the best interests of their own children. A young mother, Michelle Hobson, was
accused of starving and kicking her children when they didn’t do what she wished for in the
videos. She was charged with child abuse and ordered to distance herself from kids.
Keeping famous on the Internet takes much time and patience, too. It can distract students
away from homework, sports and other activities. For example, one of the superstars, 14-year-
old Emma Garza, dropped out of school to become a Vlogger (video blogger). She said that
making videos was so tough that she couldn’t make time for study and even suffered back pain
and weakening eyesight.
Although we don’t yet know the effects on a child’s development by constantly performing
to entertain others, we can easily imagine that the effort to attract viewers will be less helpful
to a kid, compared with spending that time reading a book. For a kid today, becoming an
Internet superstar might not only be more popular than being an astronaut. It might also be
more dangerous.
28. What problem is discussed in Paragraph 1?
A. Internet affects kids’ growth. B. Young kids seek Internet fame.
C. Social media mislead children. D. Children watch too many videos.
29. What is the major concern of education experts about children?
A. Future. B. Family. C. Study. D. Security
30. Why is Emma Garza mentioned in the passage?
A. To highlight her success. B. To introduce a new career.
C. To show the impact on students. D. To encourage kids to be Vloggers.
31. What does the author think of children’s being an Internet celebrity?
