C
The summer vacation is a time to enjoy a change from the school year. It’s a good chance to work on different activities that you don’t have much time to do during the rest of the year.
We asked about 2，000 people what they would do during the summer vacation. Most of the survey-takers agreed that the summer vacation was a break from homework and they could relax.
Alexis said she was really tired at school. So during the summer vacation she can read books and do many outdoor activities. Amy is in high school. After school，she sometimes works in a cafe. She told us，“It’s a chance to relax after a hard school year—sleep more，and see my friends more.”
We also asked them if they would be too busy or bored. About half(52%) of the survey-takers said they would be busy during the summer vacation but still have time to relax. And that is exactly how it should be. But not everyone said their summer vacation would be the right balance (平衡) between being busy and relaxing. Many thought that they would be too bored.
How bored or busy people feel during the summer vacation depends on how old they are. Survey-takers in their early teens were more likely(可能的) to be bored. Among them，40% said they would be bored and only 10% thought they would be too busy.
