閱讀理解

The weather is getting hotter. You are thirsty playing basketball or riding home from school. A cold drink may be just the thing. But be careful what you are drinking. Something that looks cool may not be good for your health.

There are plenty of “energy drinks” on the market. Most of them have beautiful colors and cool names. The lists on them tell you they are helpful to your health. Sounds great！

But after a careful check you may find that most energy drinks have lots of caffeine （咖啡因） in them. These drinks are especially aimed at young people， students， busy people and sports players. Makers sometimes say their drinks make you better at sports and can keep you awake. But be careful not to drink too much.

Caffeine makes your heart beat fast. Because of this， the International Olympic Committee has limited （限制） its use. Caffeine in most energy drinks is at least as strong as that in a cup of coffee or tea. Possible health dangers have something to do with energy drinks. Just one box of energy drink can make you nervous， have difficulty sleeping and can even cause heart problems. Scientists say that teenagers should be discouraged from taking drinks with a lot of caffeine in them.

There are about 5，000 different kinds of ladybugs （瓢蟲） in the world. They come in many different colors. Their bright colors warn other animals or insects not to eat them. Ladybugs taste bad. A bird or a frog that eats a ladybug will remember the bright colors and it will not eat another ladybug with the same colors again. When ladybugs are in danger， they will give out a fluid （液體） that tastes terrible.

In many cultures， the ladybug is considered to be a symbol of good luck. Most ladybugs are kind to humans. They eat other insects which destroy crops. One ladybug can eat up to 5，000 insects in its lifetime.

Ladybugs have six short legs. They live in many different places， including green lands， forests， cities， the countryside and banks along rivers. Different ladybugs have different spots （點）. Some of them don’t have spots at all. The most common kind in North America is the 7-spotted ladybug. The 7-spotted ladybugs are the most active from spring to autumn. When the weather turns cold， they look for a warm place to sleep， such as under stones or in houses.

Have you heard about “Survival （生存） Holidays”？ “Survival Holidays” is for children to go into the lonely place for exciting activities. Now about 1，100 companies are allowed to take children into the great outdoors without their parents.

The reason why people like “Survival Holidays” is that they think being close to nature is good for children. Many children in big cities spend all time watching TV and playing computer games. “Survival Holidays” gives them an important change.

Is “Survival Holidays” a wonderful idea？ Maybe it is. Children need more free time to play. They need to be left on their own， without adults disturbing （打擾） them. Parents care too much about their children. They like to see the children being busy with activities that are controlled by adults， but children don’t know what to do when they are in danger. Even something like crossing a small river seems to be a hard challenge. Children are not comfortable with danger. Even small danger like getting their feet wet or falling down seems very terrible to them.

Many people think the survival activities are good for children. Even years later， they will still remember what they have learned. Some have learned to stay calm in different times. Some have learned how to keep safe. Others have learned how to work in a team. All these skills will help them a lot in their lives.

2. Why do people like “Survival Holidays”？
