Clothes Donation (捐赠) Box
Almost every neighborhood has a clothes donation box. Have you ever put your old clothes into it If not, you can do it right now because the clothes donation is becoming more and more popular in China.
Miss Li is a pretty young lady. She often picks out some of her clothes which are out of style after going shopping. Then she’ll put them into the donation box.
Some clothes in the box are quite new. People can either wear them or use them to make things such as handbags and pencil cases.
However, there are some problems along with the popularity of clothes donation. Recently, some volunteers have made a survey and here are the results:
◆The box is full of clothes in a short time. There is no more room for people to give away clothes.
◆Some people sell the clothes in the donation box for making money instead of wearing them.
◆Some communities set the boxes in unsuitable places. It’s not convenient for people to put their clothes in it, so there are few clothes in it.
◆Many clothes are so old and shabby (破烂的) that they are of no worth.
◆Some people throw rubbish into the box when they pass by. It has been the most serious problem since the box was set up.
Luckily, our government is taking action to make the donation box work in an efficient (有效的) way. Clothes donation will be better-organized and it’ll be more convenient for people in need to take away the clothes.
( ) 52. Where can you find a clothes donation box easily in China
A. In a school. B. In a shopping mall. C. In a neighborhood. D. In a government office.

Holidays play an important part in our life. We work hard during the year, so we feel tired and stressed at times. We need holidays to relax, even if they only last for a few days. This is especially true for women. They could get away from their husband, children and family for even one week in the year.
Holidays have many good results. Firstly, they can improve the economy. If there were no holidays, people would have little time to spend their money. Secondly, holidays allow people to relax after working hard a whole year. During and after the holidays, people feel more relaxed and are full of energy; they then bring this energy to work when they continue working. Lastly, holidays help people learn how to enjoy life. Most people improve their relationships with their other family members during holidays.
However, holidays also have some bad sides. People couldn’t enjoy travelling because of the heavy traffic. Besides, people couldn’t have fun shopping because of too many people.
Anyway, most people realize that they need holidays. I can’t imagine what people’s lives
would be like if there were no holidays.
