【題目】Expressing gratitude regularly is a wonderful habit to your children. In fact, studies have shown that people who feel gratitude on a daily basis are happier in general. Today we’ll discuss ideas to help your children express their gratitude.

Make a gratitude tree. Start with a large piece of craft paper and draw a tree trunk. Then ask the kids to paint or color it in brown. Each day ask your kids to think of something they're thankful for. 【1】 And they’ll have a gratitude tree full of leaves one day.

Express your thankfulness to the ones you love. 【2】 Print the photos in a 5'×7'size and ask the kids to write a short note on the back explaining why they're grateful to that person. Family members, especially those who don't live nearby, will cherish the present.

【3】 Pick a regular time, maybe one Saturday a month, and do some voluntary jobs as a family.【4】 One child may want to spend a day helping to clean up their favorite park while another might want to read books to nursing home residents.

Go grocery shopping for a family in need. Many stores now offer pre-made bags to donate right at the checkout line. While this is convenient, the larger the role they play in the act of giving, the bigger the effect it will have on your kids.【5】

Taking time as a family to practice gratitude doesn't have to be difficult or time-consuming and the benefits your children will get are long-lasting.

A. It will make the experience much more powerful.

B. Let kids take pictures of themselves with their loved ones.

C. Keep gratitude journals.

D. Volunteer together.

E. If you can find a charity where you deliver the groceries , that's even better.

F. Write it on a green leaf and tape it to the tree trunk.

G. Let family members take turns to pick an activity that means something to them.

【3】D

【4】G

【5】E

【解析】這篇短文主要介紹了在感恩節(jié)，老師要求孩子們畫出他們想要感謝的東西。結(jié)果道格拉斯畫了一只手，以此來(lái)表示對(duì)老師關(guān)心的感謝。告訴我們不同的人可能用不同的方式表示他們的感恩之心。

【1】Ｆ

根據(jù)上文：每天都要讓你的孩子去想一些他們感激的事情。再根據(jù)下文：那么總有一天會(huì)有一棵感恩樹(shù)�？芍�F項(xiàng)，Write it on a green leaf and tape it to the tree trunk. （把它寫在綠葉上，然后把它帶到樹(shù)干上。）符合題意。關(guān)鍵詞：ｌｅａｆ葉子。

【2】Ｂ

根據(jù)下文：把照片洗成5'×7'大小，要求孩子們?cè)谡掌趁鎸懮蠟槭裁锤屑み@個(gè)人�？芍暇涞囊馑紤�(yīng)該是：讓孩子們和最鐘愛(ài)的感激便條在一起拍照。故選Ｂ。關(guān)鍵詞：Print the photos／take pictures。

【3】Ｄ

此空是段落首句，相當(dāng)于一個(gè)小標(biāo)題。根據(jù)下文：挑選一個(gè)固定的時(shí)間，作為一個(gè)家庭做一些志愿工作�？芍�D項(xiàng)， Volunteer together.符合題意。關(guān)鍵詞：voluntary／Volunteer；as a family／together．

【4】Ｇ

根據(jù)上文：全家人去做志愿工作。再根據(jù)空格下句：一個(gè)孩子可能會(huì)花一天的時(shí)間幫助清理他們最喜歡的公園而另一個(gè)可能是想給療養(yǎng)院居民讀書。由此可知此處的意思是：讓家人輪流挑選一件對(duì)自己有意義的活動(dòng)。故選Ｇ。

【5】Ｅ

根據(jù)上文：盡管這個(gè)活動(dòng)是方便的，他們?cè)诮o予行為中扮演的角色越大，它對(duì)你孩子的影響越大。由此可知下文的意思是：如果你能找到一家能夠郵遞食品的慈善機(jī)構(gòu)，那會(huì)更好。關(guān)鍵詞：larger ／ bigger／even better．

My old classroom was interested because three sides of the classroom were made of glass. I enjoyed sitting close to the windows and looked at the window. On the left-hand side of the class, I could easily see the football field which was full with students exercise in the mornings. The view from the back of the classroom was also wonderful. Close to the school there is a beautiful park with many trees around them. Farther in the distance, I could not enjoy the view of snowy mountains. On the right side of the class was the road. I was always interested to see the drivers in hurry in the morning. The position of the classroom with its view made me felt like I was dreaming. Though I was only a children when I studied in that classroom, I will never forget it.

【題目】Two of the saddest words in the English language are “if only”. I live my life with the goal of never having to say those words, because they convey regret, lost opportunities, mistakes, and disappointment.

My father is famous in our family for saying, “Take the extra minute to do it right.” I always try to live by the “extra minute” rule. When my children were young and likely to cause accidents, I always thought about what I could do to avoid an “if only” moment, whether it was something minor like moving a cup full of hot coffee away from the edge of a counter, or something that required a little more work such as taping padding (襯墊) onto the sharp corners of a glass coffee table.

I don’t only avoid those “if only” moments when it comes to safety. It’s equally important to avoid “if only” in our personal relationships. We all know people who lost a loved one and regretted that they had foregone an opportunity to say “I love you” or “I forgive you.” When my father announced he was going to the eye doctor across from my office on Good Friday, I told him that it was a holiday for my company and I wouldn’t be here. I know there will still be occasions when I have to say “if only” about something, but my life is definitely better because of my policy of doing everything possible to avoid that eventuality. And even though it takes an extra minute to do something right, or it occasionally takes an hour or two in my busy schedule to make a personal connection, I know that I’m doing the right thing. I’m buying myself peace of mind and that’s the best kind of insurance for my emotional well-being.

【1】Which of the following is an example of the “extra minute” rule ?

A. Start the car the moment everyone is seated.

B. Leave the room for a minute with the iron working.

C. Wait for an extra minute so that the steak tastes better.

D. Move an object out of the way before it trips someone.

【2】The author decided to go to her office on Good Friday to ______.

A. keep her appointment with the eye doctor

B. meet her father who was already an old man

C. join in the holiday celebration of the company

D. finish her work before the deadline approached

【3】The underlined word “foregone” in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to ______.

A. avoided B. lacked C. abandoned D. took

【4】What is the best title for the passage?

A. The Emotional Well-being

B. The Two Saddest Words

C. The Most Useful Rule

D. The Peace of Mind
