My “perfect holiday”
As a boy, like all other boys, I wanted to be a man. But my parents did everything for me. Actually, they managed every minute of my life. Although they loved me, I felt a bit unhappy with them. “Zheng Chenyu, do your homework!” “Practise the piano!” “Turn off the TV!” I became so bored with their orders that I wished they would leave me alone.
Read the passage and choose the best summary.
Reading
Well, my wish came true! Although my parents were very
worried about leaving me, they had to go away on business for a
few days. Now was my chance! I could have some fun at last! As
soon as I got home from school the first day, I happily threw my
schoolbag on the sofa and ate lots of snacks. Then I enjoyed an
exciting film on TV and after that I played computer games. I
liked the games so much that I played until midnight.
The next morning I woke up late. I had to hurry to school
without breakfast, but I was still late. The teacher asked me for
my homework, but I could not hand it in. With an empty stomach,
I was unable to play basketball with my classmates! I felt tired
and sleepy at school all day long.
When I got home, I tried to cook some rice, but I burnt it.
I even dropped my father’s cup when I was cooking! I found
myself so bad at simple cooking tasks. I started to feel lonely.
I wanted Mum and Dad to come home soon. Mum cooked such
delicious food, and made sure I never forgot my homework.
Dad always helped me with any difficult questions, and told funny jokes when I was unhappy. Then I realised being home alone was not always perfect.
When my parents came home, they were happy to find that I could cook and tidy up now. I told them my home alone story, and we all laughed.
a) Zheng Chenyu found his life more difficult without his parents.
b) Zheng Chenyu depended on his parents to prepare meals for him.
c) Zheng Chenyu had so much homework that he did not have time to look after himself.
d) Zheng Chenyu should learn to cook.

這里manage 的意思是“安排；管理”。

父母不應該為孩子安排一切。
I manage my time well.
我把自己的時間安排得很好。

lonely adj. 孤獨的，寂寞的，偏僻的，荒涼的
e.g. Her parents were dead and she was alone.

他當醫生的愿望實現了。
realise 做“實現”講時與come true 同義。
區別在于：
realise為及物動詞，主語一定是人；
come true 此搭配為“不及物”動詞性，其主語一般是物。
e.g. My dream came true at last .最終我的理想實現了。
=I realised my dream at last.
