Most children don't enjoy doing chores. They like playing computer games rather than cleaning the rooms. But in Australia, Jim and Robert's mother, Mrs. Black, has good and proper methods(方法)to get her children to do housework. Here is an example.

“Mom, have you worked out next week's chores? Let Jim and me choose the cards. I can't wait. It's fun！”

When Robert shouted out, his mother had already put all the cards on their big table. On the cards, there are some words like these, “sweep the floor, clean your bedroom, help Mom cook, wash vegetables, make beds, clean the bathroom” and many others. Jim and Robert chose two cards for each day from Monday to Friday. Then they would hang them on the weekday task board. Jim likes to clean the bathroom, so he picked up the card “clean the bathroom”. Robert loves to make the bed, so he picked up his favorite card. Jim again picked up “wash vegetables” and Robert chose “feed the fish”. Soon the two boys were happy to take away all the cards.

To help the children do chores, their mother thought hard and figured__out this idea. Of course, the parents did the chores at weekends and left Jim and Robert two days free.

(　)56. From the passage we know that most children like______.

A. doing chores   B. playing computer games

C. Thought of.  D. Believed in.

A. 回答问题(本题共5小题，每小题2分，共10分)

How many times have we told ourselves“I'm going to study from now on. ”or “I'm going to do more English exercises to improve myself next week. ”？And soon, all our decisions are gone.

Being lazy is the most common thing in the world. It has become the biggest enemy (敌人) in front of us and “giving up” usually happens to us. So how could we beat laziness? The following ways are very useful.

First, set a goal that you can get to. Remember, laziness is powerful. That's because you are used to the way that things are going, and even if you want to change, it's difficult. So don't try to conquer (征服) the world in the beginning. Just conquer some small things which you can achieve. As the saying goes, “Well begun is half done. ”

Second, take action at once and then you will make progress little by little. Please remember“Actions speak louder than words. ”

Third, be accountable (有责任心的) . It's common for us to get lazy from time to time, and there's nothing wrong with that. But to beat laziness, we need a bit of pressure. Pressure can encourage people, especially when it's good. This kind of pressure includes encouragement from our family or friends and so on.

Finally，be confident (自信的) and keep doing it no matter what happens. You'll meet difficulties and fall down. Just get up and keep going. You'll make mistakes and get disappointed. It doesn't matter. Learn from your mistakes and keep going.

In fact, being lazy is not terrible. Follow the advice above, keep your own promises and get started right now.
