13、 "The first of June, and the King family is going on holiday tomorrow! " said Meg. "I'm free for three months!"
"And Aunt March went away for her holiday today." said Jo. "Isn't life wonderful!"
"What will you do all your holiday?" asked Amy.
"I'll stay in bed late, and do nothing." said Meg.
"I have lots of books to read." said Jo.
"Let’s not do any studying, Beth...." said Amy. "Let’s play all the time and rest, as Jo and Meg are going to do."
"I will if Mother doesn’t mind." said Beth.
Mrs. March agreed to the plan and said they could try it for a week.
"But," she added, "I think by Saturday night you will find that all play and no work is as bad as all work and no play."
Next day, Meg appeared at ten o'clock and ate breakfast alone. It was a lonely meal and the room was untidy, because Beth had not cleaned it.
Jo went to the river with Laurie, then sat in the apple tree and read a book. Beth began to tidy things in her cupboard, but she got tired and left it half-done. She went to her piano, glad that she did not have to wash the cups and plates. Amy sat in the garden to draw, hoping someone would see her and say something nice about her picture. But no one appeared, so she went for a walk, got caught in the rain and came home very wet.
At tea, everyone said that it had been a happy but unusually long day. Meg, who had been shopping in the afternoon, now decided that she did not like the dress she had bought. Jo had a headache from reading too long. Beth couldn't find anything in her cupboard, and the rain had made Amy’s dress so wet that she couldn’t wear it to Katy Brown’s party the next day.
Mrs. March listened, smiled and said nothing.
The week seemed to get longer and longer with nothing much to do, and by Friday the girls were glad that it was nearly over. Then Mrs. March gave Hannah a holiday, and when the girls got up on Saturday, there was no breakfast ready, no fire in the kitchen, and no mother waiting for them.
"What has happened?" said Jo.
Meg ran upstairs, then came down to say that Mother was staying in her room to have a rest.
"She says we must look after ourselves today." Meg said.
"Good, I want something to do." said Jo.
Secretly, they were all pleased to have something useful to do again. Beth and Amy put cups and plates on the table while Jo and Meg got the breakfast, then Meg took some tea and an egg up to Mrs. March. The tea was too strong and the egg was burned. Mrs. March did not complain, but she laughed to herself afterwards.

15、Millions of Chinese have been playing a mobile game called Travel Frog recently. You play as the “mother” of a frog who lives alone and enjoys traveling. You need to prepare food and tools for his trips. The frog will send you postcards while he is away.
The game’s popularity may have something to do with how lonely people are these days, according to the Xinhua News Agency. Many players have said that the lonely frog is just like them. But playing with the frog helps them forget their loneliness for a short time.
Loneliness seems to be a common problem today. According to the Guardian, a British daily, about 40 percent of American adults say they’re lonely. And in the UK, about one in five people in the country are “always or often lonely”, the Telegraph reported.
This might be why the UK government announced the country’s very first “Minister of Loneliness” (孤独大臣) in January. The minister’s job is to find ways to help UK citizens feel less lonely. The minister’s office will provide more money for activities that connect people together.
This loneliness problem may be partly because of social media. When we see pictures of friends having fun or posting pictures on WeChat or Microblog, we may compare their “perfect” lives with our own and feel sad and lonely.
But we should remember that no one is born to be lonely. As UK poet John Donne once wrote, “No man is an island. Every man is a piece of the land, a part of the main.” Here are some tips to get rid of loneliness:
Sing your favorite songs.
Connect with a friend.
Do something creative, such as drawing a picture.
Imagine some place you’d like to visit, like a fun gathering or a sporting event.
1.What do players do while playing Travel Frog?
A.Build houses for their frogs. B.Write postcards to their frogs.
C.Choose places for their frogs to travel. D.Prepare food and tools for their frogs’ trips.
2.According to the passage, why is the game so popular?
A.Because the frog is lovely. B.Because it can be played on mobile phones.
C.Because it makes people feel less lonely. D.Because people have more spare time now.
3.To deal with the problem of loneliness, the UK government .
A.designed the game Travel Frog B.named the “Minister of Loneliness”
C.held parties for people to get together D.stopped people’s use of social media
4.What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A.Everyone is connected with others. B.We should not compare ourselves to others.
C.It’s not fun to feel lonely. D.We should be away from social media.
