18．　　Many middle school students don't know how to spend their free time. When they have holidays, they always have nothing to do and feel bored. Some may play computer games all day long and some may stay in bed and sleep all day. It's not a good way. Here are some suggestions (建议).
　　If you don't like to stay at home, you can go for a picnic or play some sports. In this way, you can take some fresh air and keep healthy. If you like to stay at home, you may enjoy some light music or read a few novels. You can play some indoor games such as chess, cards, and table tennis. You can also plant some trees and flowers in your garden to make your home beautiful. It is also a good way to keep a pet and talk with it. Just develop (发展) some hobbies and you will feel much happier after a long holiday.

19．　　Mrs. Green was seventy, but she had a small car, and she always drove to the shops in it on Saturday and bought her food.
　　She did not drive fast, because she was old, but she drove well and never hit anything. Sometimes her grandchildren said to her, "Please don't drive your car, grandmother. We can take you to the shops. "But she always said, "No, I like driving. I've driven for fifty years, and I'm not going to stop now."
　　Last Saturday she stopped her car at some traffic-lights because they were red, and then it did not start again. The lights were green, then yellow, then green again, but her car did not start.
　　"What am I going to do now?" she said.
　　But then a policeman came and said to her kindly, "Good morning. Don't you like any of our colours today?"

20．　　What can be both red or green, round or sharp, big or small, and more importantly, loved or hated by someone?Yes, the answer is chilies (辣椒).
　　Many of us in China enjoy adding chilies to our food, but do you know that this spicy (辣的) vegetable could also be dangerous? A 34-year-old US man recently ended up in hospital after eating a Carolina Reaper, the spiciest chili. After taking just one bite, the man began to get serious headaches in the following days, reported by BBC News.
　　In fact, eating spicy food causes stomachache and headache. But if chilies are harmful, why do people like to eat this vegetable?What makes people love chilies so much?The human body is influenced (影响) by natural chemicals (化学物质)that produce "senses happiness", noted by BBC News.
　　And Chilies do good to people in another way. Scientists found that the death rate (死亡率) of those who eat spicy food once or twice a week is 10 percent lower than those who eat it less than once a week. The death rate is 14 percent lower for those who eat spicy food six to seven times a week. This encourages people to eat more spicy food to improve health. So don't worry if you love spicy food. It seems that chilies are actually good for us.
