Fill in the blanks with proper words (在短文的空格内填入适当的词,使其内容通顺。每空格限填一词,首字母已给)

One day I was driven by a rain-storm to take shelter in a little hut by the road-side, which was used by a shoe-maker as his workshop to fix shoes. The man and his son were busy with their work; and after saying, "Good day," we began to talk together.

Before I had been with them long, the old man sent his son out to get something that he needed for his repair. His son was only one kilometre away, but it was too long for the h【小题1】 shoe-maker to be free. He at last took up a piece of leather and began to work on it, saying, "You know, sir, it will never do to waste time."

As soon as the rain was over, I went on my way home, thinking over what I had heard, "It will never do to waste time." Some people are always lazy, others are lazy only now and then. I was one of the second ones. I couldn't f 【小题2】 my attention all the time. So the old man's words came home with me and I began to feel how w【小题3】it was to waste so much of my life in laziness.

I had often heard and read that laziness was great h 【小题4】; but now I begin to see that it causes far more disadvantages than people are aware of. They don't know the wasted time never goes back.

When a man is busy, he is said to be "occupied." What does that mean? It means that a man at work is like a house with people living in it. When our minds are full of our work, there is no s【小题5】 for anything else. Laziness, on the other hand, is emptiness; and when the mind is empty, then the doors are thrown open, and bad thoughts come in to influence your pure heart. When it once gets hold of a man, the habit of laziness isn't e【小题6】 got rid of.

I have made up my mind to follow the shoe-maker's rule for the rest of my life. Although it was very hard at first, I stick to it because I learn to r【小题7】 myself not to waste time. Above all, I decide that my mind should never be empty.

Answer the questions(根据以下内容回答问题)

Many young people love western festivals not because of their cultural meaning, but because of life fun. They don't think it important to know the cultural meaning about western festivals. Actually, we don't just need to remember their names, but we should have an understanding of their culture and history. Western festivals are popular in China because of the differences between western festivals and Chinese ones.

Chinese festivals and western festivals were born for different reasons. Chinese festivals mainly came from celebrations, worship and other activities. However, most western festivals are linked with religions(宗教). Also the ways that western people and Chinese people celebrate festivals aren't similar. Let's take Christmas and the Spring Festival as an example. At Christmas, people prepare Christmas cards, Christmas trees and hold Christmas evenings. Traditionally, Chinese people celebrate the Spring Festival based on blood relationship in the forms of watching television and paying New Year's visits. In addition, western festivals deliver quite different values from Chinese ones. For example, the Valentine's Day, which falls on February14th,adds fresh mind to Chinese. The festival spreads seeds in-every corner of China and encourages people to look for true love which belongs to themselves. Ancient Chinese people don't dare to think of that.

Whether you like western festivals or not, you can't ignore the effect western festivals they have brought to us. We are paying more attention to thanks-giving and emotions instead of food and money. They have made great contributions to enrich our culture.

【小题1】Many young people love western festivals because of life fun, don’t they?
【小题2】Why are western festivals popular in China?
【小题3】How do western people usually celebrate Christmas according to the article?
【小题4】What don't ancient Chinese people dare to think of?
【小题5】How many differences between western festivals and Chinese festivals are mentioned in the article?
【小题6】Which western festival did you celebrate?
What advantages can you gain after understanding western festivals? List two points.
