Have you ever wondered what goes through your mind when you choose where to sit in a new classroom?Or in a waiting room full of strangers? Or on a bus? Researchers have found out some interesting facts.Girls sit by girls and boys sit by boys. Adults sit together and young people choose another youngperson to sit near. But it goes further than this. We even choose to sit near someone who looks likeus. People with glasses are more likely to sit near other people with glasses. People with long hairsit closer to other people with long hair.We seem to believe that people with similar habits or hobbies will share similar experiences andwe are more likely to be accepted by people like ourselves, or even, we think we may be safer with people who look like us. Sometimes that's true but it's a pity if we always stay with the same people, the samegroup. The danger in always staying in our comfort zone (舒适区) is that we just recycle the same o pinions, the same tastes and the same ideas. We l ose the chance to learn something new, find out interesting things, hear funny stories and discover differences.When we always stay with the same people, how can we break down the barriers which prevent us fromgetting to know people with different ideas? And how can we avoid the ignorance (无知) ? If you wantto live in a society that opens to changes , new things and different opinions ,be the cat among thepigeons(鸽子).Move out of your comfort zone. Go and sit next to someone different. And don't just sit there insilence. Say hello. Ask a question. Start a conversation. That's how we make friends. That's how we learn about people. That's how we open our minds to new ideas. That's how we live an exciting life.(1) From the passage ,we know that people prefer sitting by someone who .A . is like themselvesB . has a sense of humorC . is open - mindedD . lives an exciting life(2) People like staying in their comfort zone because they may .A . remain comfortable and specialB . find out more interesting thingsC . be accepted easily and feel safeD . discover differences among themselves(3) The sentence "Unsurprisingly, we prefer to sit closer to people like ourselves." should be put at the beginning of .A . Paragraph 1B . Paragraph 2C . Paragraph 3D . Paragraph 4(4) What does the underlined word "barriers" mean in Paragraph 4 ?A . 联系B . 隔阂C . 纽带D . 熟悉(5) What is the purpose of the passage?A . To tell us not to talk with strangers.B . To introduce ways to learn about the world.C . To explain how people communicate with foreigners.D . To encourage us to get along with different people.2.

CI arrived at my mother's home for our Saturday family dinner. The smells of food flew over from the kitchen. My mother was pulling out quilt after quilt from the boxes, proudly showing me their beauties. I knew they were all made herself. She was preparing for a quilt show on TV. When we began to fold and put them back into the boxes, I noticed something at the bottom of one box. I pulled it out."What's this?" I asked."Oh?" Mom said, "That's Mama's quilt."I spread the quilt. It looked as if a group of school children had made the pieces together. "Grandmother made this?" I asked in surprise. My grandmother was a master at making quilts. This certainly didn't look like any of the quilts she had made."Yes, right before she died. I brought it home with me last year and made some changes," Mom said, "I'm still working on it. See, this is what I've done so far."I looked at it more closely. She had made a line straight. At the center of the quilt, she had stitched a piece of cloth with these words: "My mother made many quilts. She didn't get all lines straight. But I think this is beautiful. I want to see it finished. Her last quilt.""Oh, this is so nice, Mom." I said. I was sure now that by completing my grandmother's quilt, my mother was honoring her own mother.

人教版英语专题训练阅读理解(人生百味)一、九年级中考英语阅读理解(人生百味)(含答案详细解析)1.阅读理解As a kid, I read a story of a bird. It described a male bird which takes a lot of pain to build a house and the female bird takes care of the baby in it. When the baby bird learns to fly, the whole family flies off to a different place leaving behind the beautiful nest for other birds to grow their family in it. It made me confused(困惑的):How could they so easily give up their house built with so much effort?One night, I got this dream. I was walking on the endless road with beautiful trees on the either side. Attracted by the greenery, I went on, then I saw a wonderful house. I explored the house. There was a sloping(斜的) roof which matched with the greenery around; the large central open yard reminded me of the activities that might have taken place there which felt lively even now. The small water body that kept the house cool added to the beauty of the house — of course, it was all dried up now. Such liveliness turns the house into a home. People say “THE HOME IS WHERE THE HEART IS”, and now I felt it and was attracted deeply.When I woke up from the dream, I was clear about everything. I realized what message my dream wanted to convey(传递) me. And years later, when I chose my career, I thought of the story of the bird and my dream,then I was sure what to do. I decided to choose architecture as my career. I wanted to do the same thing that the male bird in the story did, to take pain in building a beautiful house and let others stay in it. My dream comes true and the happiness that I gain now from this career is great.(1)When the writer read the story of the bird,he felt _______.A. boredB. confusedC. amazedD. worried(2)In the writer's dream, what part of the house attracted him most?A. The sloping roof of the house.B. The body of water that keeps the house cool.C. The large central open yard.D. The liveliness that he felt around the house.(3)The underlined word “architecture” in Paragraph 3 means _______ in Chinese.A. 考古B. 天文C. 建筑D. 艺术(4)The passage is mainly about _______.A. how the bird could give up their house easilyB. how the writer finally becomes an honest citizenC. what we need to do when we choose our careerD. why the writer chooses architecture as his career【答案】(1)B(2)D(3)C(4)D【解析】【分析】本文主要内容是作者小时候听到一个关于一种小鸟的故事,这种鸟的公鸟负责搭窝,母鸟负责抚养后代,小鸟长大后,他们飞走了,把鸟窝留给其他鸟。

An illness had kept the boy home, but he had expressed an interest in meeting me, and it would mean a great deal to him, so I agreed.During the nine-mile drive to his home, I found out something about Matthew. He had muscular dystrophy (肌肉萎缩症).When he was born, the doctor told his parents that he would not live to see five, and then they were told he would not make it to ten. Now he was thirteen. He wanted to meet me because I was a gold-medal power lifter, and I knew about overcoming(克服)difficulties and going for my dreams.I spent over an hour talking to Matthew. Never once did he complain or ask, “Why me?” He spoke about winning and succeeding and going for his dreams. Clearly, he knew what he was talking about. He didn't mention that his classmates had made fun of him because he was different. He just talked about his hopes for the future, and how one day he wanted to lift weight with me. When we finished talking, I pulled out the first gold medal I won and put it around his neck. I told him he was more of a winner and knew more about success and overcoming difficulties than I ever would. He looked at it for a moment, then took it off and handed it back to me. He said, “You are a champion. You won that medal. Someday when I get to the Olympics and win my own medal, I will show it to you.”Last summer I received a letter from Matthew's parents telling me that Matthew had passed away. They wanted me to have a letter he had written to me a few days before:Dear Rick,My mum said I should send you a thank-you letter for the picture you sent me. I also want to let you know that the doctors tell me that I don't have long to live any more, but I still smile as much as I can.I told you someday that I was going to the Olympics and win a gold medal, but I know now I will never get to do that. However, I know I'm a champion, and God knows that too. When I get to Heaven, God will give me my medal and when you get there, I will show it to you.

DFriendship can help you stick to your aims and make you more successful, according to an article in Times.Carlin Flora, the writer, who has studied friendship for years, finds that if you really want to change something in your life, you can develop friendship with people who have the same aims as you do.Friends can help make your own will stronger. Following good examples can help you get rid of bad behaviors and form new, healthier ones. For example, after a busy and tiring day, you probably want to go home and watch TV. However, your friend knocks on your door and asks you to go jogging with him. After jogging, you talk over coffee together. This is much better than just sitting in the room watching TV.Flora also points out that it's best to stop bad habits by turning attention to different, good ones. Instead of staying at home alone and spending hours in front of your computer, building up friendship with those who have the values and habits you admire will lift you up more easily.We all wish to be with, and be liked by our friends.

2020中考复习人生百味类专项练习一、阅读理解Two good friends, Sam and Jason, met with a car accident on their way home one snowy night. The next morning, Sam woke up blind. His legs were broken. The doctor, Mr Lee, was standing by his bed, looking at him worriedly. When he saw Sam awake, he asked, “How are you feeling, Sam?” Sam smiled and said, “Not bad, Doctor. Thank you very much for doing the special operation(手术).” Mr Lee was moved by Sam. When he was leaving, Sam said, “Please don’t tell Jason about it.” “Well…Well…OK,” Mr Lee replied.Months later when Jason’s wounds healed(愈合), Sam was still very sick. He couldn’t see or walk. He could do nothing but stay in his wheelchair all day long. At first, Jason stayed with him for a few days. But days later, Jason thought it boring to spend time with a disabled man like Sam. So he went to see Sam less and less. He made new friends. From then on, he didn’t go to visit Sam any more. Sam didn’t have any family or friends except Jason. He felt very sad.Things went from bad to worse. Sam died a year later. When Jason came, Mr Lee gave him a letter from Sam. In the letter Sam said, “Dear Jason, I am disabled. But I want you to be a healthy man. So I gave my eyes to you so that you can enjoy life as a healthy man. Now you have new f riends. I’m glad to see that you are as healthy and happy as usual. I’m glad you live a happy life. You are always my best friend... Sam”. When he finished reading the letter, Mr Lee said, “I have promised that I will keep this a secret until Sam is gone. Now you know it.”Jason stood there like a stone. Tears ran down his face.1.The car accident happened ____________.A. only to SamB. on a cold eveningC. the next morningD. on the way to work2.Sam thanked Mr Lee mainly because Mr LeeA. saved hi s friend Jason’s lifeB. was very kind and friendly to himC. came to see him early in the morningD. did the operation according to his wish3.Which of the following is the correct order of events in the story?a.

Sam died and Jason knew the truth.A. c--b--d--a--eB. d--c-- b--e—aC. d--a--c--b--eD. c--d-- b--e—a4.After we finish reading Sam’s letter, we c an infer(推断) that ___________.A. Sam caused the car accidentB. Sam’s operation was not successfulC. Jason was made blind in the car accidentD. Jason knew how Sam helped him before Sam died5.From the story, we can conclude(得出结论) that __________.A. Sam played a joke on JasonB. Sam always told lies to his friendsC. Sam thought friendship was importantD. Sam regretted doing the operation in the endWhat’s the most important thing for you to have in your life? Somebody mentions hard-work, others suggest knowledge, love and luck.If you arrange the 26 English letters alphabetically and use numbers to represent each of them, for example, 1 for a, 2 for b, 3 for c…, you can change an English word into a number. So hard-work becomes 8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11= 98, meaning 98 is its mark; knowledge: 11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5=96, while love: 12+15+22+5=54, and luck: 12+21+3+11=47, a small mark. None of these words can give one a full mark. What about money or prayer? They can’t, either.Then what else? Don’t be worried. You can always find an answer to a problem in your life, when you change your way of looking at things or doing things, which is your attitude. Yes, attitude is the word. See for yourself: attitude: 1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5=100,a full mark!Different attitudes lead to different courses of life. Most times people hope for a better life. It is possible that one will have a change for the better after one has changed one’s attitude.When you change your manner and became friendly towards others, you’ll meet more smiling faces towards you. In the same way, if you take a positive attitude towards failure, you’ll find it’s also rewarding though it has caused you losses. 6.Some people think it is important to have hard-work, knowledge, _______in their life.7.According to the passage, the mark of the word “money” is _________. 8.From the passage, we know it’s possible for you_______ if you change your attitude.9.People will meet_______ towards them when they change their manners and become friendly to others.10.The main idea of the passage is that ___________.Returning a father's loveHe was a single father, raising a 5-year-old boy by himself. He was often worried about his son growing up without a mother to care for him.One day, he went away on business, leaving the child alone.

So he sent them each on a quest, in turn, to go and look at a pear tree that was a great distance away. The first son went in the winter, the second in the spring, the third in summer, and the youngest son in the fall.When they had all gone and come back, he called them together to describe what they had seen. The first son said that the tree was ugly, bent, and twisted. The second son said no - it was covered with green buds and full of promise. The third son disagreed, he said it was laden with blossoms that smelled so sweet and looked so beautiful, it was the most graceful thing he had ever seen. The last son disagreed with all of them; he said it was ripe and drooping with fruit, full of life and fulfillment.The man then explained to his sons that they were all right, because they had each seen but one season in the tree's life.He told them that you cannot judge a tree, or a person, by only one season, and that the essence of who they are - and the pleasure, joy, and love that come from that life - can only be measured at the end, when all the seasons are up.If you give up when it's winter, you will miss the promise of your spring, the beauty of your summer, fulfillment of your fall.

EMy dear grandchildren Charlie and Mary,Your mother Rachel has expected me to write down some advice for you. Here are some important things that I've learnt about life. Wish they could help you more or less.Hold on to your dreams no matter how difficult they are or how “different” they may seem to others. Just do it! The worst thing in life is to look back and say, “I would have ...; I could hav e ...; I should have...”Make a “Life List” of all those things you want to do such as travelling to places, learning a skill, mastering a language or meeting someone special. Don't say “I'll do it tomorrow”. There is no tomorrow, and there is no “right” time to begin something except now.Be kind and spare no effort to help people — especially the weak and the poor. Everyone has a special pain, and they need our care and help.Read books, as many as you can. They bring pleasure, knowledge and inspiration (灵感) to you.Always travel, especially when you are young. Don't wait until you have “enough” money or everything is “just right”. That never happens. Get your passport today.Remember not to argue. It never works, and it only hurts both yourselves and others. You should hug people you love. Tell them how much they mean to you now. Don't wait until it's too late.Be grateful. There is an Irish saying, “This is a day in our lives, and it will not come again.” Live every day with this in mind.Yours,Granny (1)What does the underlined phrase “spare no effort” mean?A. Do your bestB. Find your timeC. Use your own wayD. Take your time (2)What did the writer wish her grandchildren to be?A. Rich and famousB. Healthy and strongC. Funny and activeD. Friendly and polite (3)The writer suggested that her grandchildren should ________.A. never look back to their livesB. leave everything for tomorrowC. be thankful for the day they haveD. always try to hug anyone they meet(4)What can we infer from the letter?A. The writer has only two grandchildren.B. The writer has experienced a lot in life.C. The grandchildren were short of education.D. The children used to argue with their mother.【答案】(1)A(2)D(3)C(4)B【解析】【分析】短文是作者结合自己的人生经历给两个孙子女的一些宝贵建议。

During the graduation ceremony, one of her classmates gave a simple speech that I will always remember. She talked about the "givers" of this world. She said, "You will be a success if you make another person smile. If you are friendly to someone who needs a little help, you will get an ‘A'!"After the ceremony, when all of the students were outside the hall trying to find their parents and friends, a man and his wife came to me and asked if I was Becky's mom. I said yes and the man handed me a gift and began to tell me how much they appreciated Becky's kindness to their daughter, Jessica, during the school sports meeting the week before.Jessica's left leg was hurt and she was unable to finish the uphill race. Becky was worried about her and kept going back to check on her leg. Jessica's dad told me that Becky had shown more concern for his daughter than the coach, and that he and his wife would never forget her kindness. Of course, I had tears in my eyes.

(6分) (2018八下·深圳开学考) 阅读理解Giving generously (慷慨地) and receiving gratefully make it easier to live happily with others. Yet, why do we have such difficulty accomplishing these things in our relationships?Let me start with the idea of giving generously. I think people are reluctant to be generous with others because they fear being used. For example, my husband and I have family members who only contact us when they need money. We usually accept their requests (要求), but we rarely receive a "thank you". Most people would say that my husband and I are being used, and I suppose we are. But when we give, we shouldn't be giving for the purpose of getting gratitude or praise.Rather, we should be giving because it's the good thing to do. A "thank you" is merely the icing on the cake. Everything that we have, from our ability to wake up each morning to the money in our bank account, is a gift from the world. In return, the world asks us to use these gifts to help others, either by giving them our time or our resources. The good news is that when we live our lives being nice to others, our lives run more smoothly. If you're generous, yes, some people will use you. But if you practice being generous, most of your relationships will improve. And at the same time, we should remember to receive gratefully. I truly believe that you cannot say "thank you" enough. So often we get lazy about expressing gratitude. Parents can feel unappreciated by their children, and teachers can feel unappreciated by their students.Just because a task is part of someone's job description doesn't mean that you shouldn't thank them for it. Words of appreciation make others feel good about themselves like nothing else.It's good for us to say "thank you" because we regularly need to remind ourselves of how lucky weare. And hearing those two words can make us feel great for days. If you are looking for a secret solution to improve your life, I can give you one: Give generously and receive gratefully.(1) The author mentions her family members mainly to explain ______.A . why we should give even if we feel we are being usedB . why people have trouble expressing gratitudeC . why we should accept whatever others requestD . why it's necessary to express gratitude or praise(2) The phrase "the icing on the cake" probably means _______.A . something that is necessaryB . something that is not of much helpC . something that leads to an unexpected resultD . something that makes an experience better(3) According to the author, why should we be grateful to those who help us?A . Because it makes us feel lucky.B . Because words of gratitude delight people.C . Because it's not other people's duty to help us.D . Because all we normally get are gifts from the world.(4) The author wrote this article mainly to ______.A . stress the importance of being generousB . persuade people to give generously and receive thankfullyC . show how to express our gratitude to othersD . give tips on how to improve other people's lives4.

They are based on his experience of building a company from the ground up, leading New York City as mayor(市长), and so on.Take RisksLife is too short to spend your time avoiding failure.In 1981, at the age of 39, I lost my job. The next day I took a big risk and began my own company. In 2001, when I was debating whether to run for mayor, most people advised me not to do it. But one person said, “If you can imagine yourself giving a concession(败选)speech, then why not go for it?” That was the best advice I received, and I followed it.In order to succeed, you must first be willing to fail— and you must have the courage to go for it anyway.Make your own luckLuck plays a part in success. The harder you work, the luckier you get.Whatever you choose to do, even if it's not the job of your dreams, always work hard at it. Be the first person at work in the morning and the last to leave at night. Hard work creates chances. Never stop learningThe most powerful word in English language is “why”. There is nothing so powerful as an open, inquiring mind(探究精神). Whatever field you choose for starting a business — be a lifelong student.Give backYou are responsible for your success and failure, but you only succeed if you share the reward with others.My first donation was a $ 5 check to my alma mater (母校) . And while the checks(支票)may be bigger today, they come with the same spirit.You don't have to be wealthy to give back. You can give back by giving your time and talents. (1)In this passage, Michael Bloomberg is the name of a .A. newspaperB. placeC. companyD. person(2)What did the writer do at the age of 59?A. Lost his job.B. Ran for mayor.C. Built a company.D. Became a teacher.(3)From the passage, we can infer that the writer .A. is a young mayorB. seldom cares about othersC. is lucky all the timeD. is a hard-working man(4)Which of the following isn't mentioned in the tips?A. Failure is the mother of success.B. It's never too old to learn.C. Money is everything.D. Luck comes from hard work.(5)In which of the following columns(栏目)can you find the article?A. Family LifeB.

She was hardworking and had a special skill in making delicious strawberry jam.Aunt Fanny was single and had no children. She didn't like to share love with others. I thought she was very lonely, although she didn't mind it. She had a workshop where my mother helped her make the best strawberry jam, and everyone in our town bought it. But aunt Fanny asked my mother not to tell the recipe(秘方) of making the strawberry jam to others.When the strawberries were ripe,my family would pick them together. We talked and laughed, experiencing the fun of picking strawberries. But aunt Fanny never joined us. She just asked us to pick strawberries quickly and make more strawberry jam to make more money for her. Each person in our town said that she just paid attention to money rather than anything else. What a poor woman! It's no use having too much money because she had no family and friends to share her happiness during her lifetime.Maybe it was the recipe that brought success to aunt Fanny. But to me, it was just a common recipe. Money can make you feel rich for a while, but it is the beautiful days spent with family and friends that truly make you rich.(1)Who owns the recipe of making the best strawberry jam?A.

I grew up in a house where the TV was seldom turned on and with one wall in my bedroom entirely lined with bookshelves, most of my childhood was spent on books I could get hold of. In fact, I grew up thinking of reading as natural as breathing and books unbelievably powerful in shaping perspectives(观点) by creating worlds we could step into, take part in and live in.With this belief, I, at fourteen, decided to become a writer. Here too, reading became useful. Every writer starts off knowing that he has something to say, but being unable to find the right ways to say it. He has to find his own voice by reading widely and discovering which parts of the writers he agrees or disagrees with. He cannot write without loving to read, because only through reading other people's writing can one discover what works, what doesn't and, in the end, together with lots of practice, what voice he has.Now I am in college, and have come to realize how important it is to read books. Reading reminds me that there is life beyond my own. It allows me to travel across the high seas and along the Silk Road, all from the comfort of my own armchair, to experience, though secondhand, exciting experiences that I wouldn't necessarily be able to have in my lifetime.(1)What can be inferred about the author as a child?A. He never watched TV.B. He found reading unbelievable.C. He considered reading part of his life.D. He read what he had to.(2)The underlined word “voice” in the second paragraph most probably means “________”.A. a beliefB. a way of writingC. a sound qualityD. a world to write about (3)What effect does reading have on the author?A. It opens up a wider world for him.B. It helps him to realize his dream.C. It makes his college life more interesting.D. It increases his interest in worldwide travel.(4)Which of the following can be the best title of this text?A. How do I read?B. What do I read?C. Why do I read?D. When do I read?【答案】(1)C(2)B(3)A(4)C【解析】【分析】作者从小的时候就非常喜欢阅读,这个习惯也让他有了成为一名作家的想法。

It is the little one that was so kind-spoken to me this morning!” he cried, and he hurried to his sons' rooms.“Quick, boys, quick!” he said. “Get to the boat, and row fast to the sea. There is a poor child there just waiting to be helped.” The fishermen lost no time, and soon little Maggie and Rover were rowed safely to land!

As I lay there bleeding, I suddenly realized that I might have to live the rest of my life without legs. How depressed I was at that moment! But then I realized that depression wouldn't get my legs back. So I decided not to waste my life feeling depressed. When my parents arrived at the hospital, they stood there quietly, looked so shocked and sad. I told them, “I've already accepted the fact. Now you also have to get used to this.”Ever since then, I often see my friends getting worried about little things: their bus comes late; they get bad grades on a test. But I just enjoy life.I am lucky to realize that it is a waste of energy to focus on what you have lost, and that the key to happiness is to take pleasure in what you have. Sounds simple, doesn't it? So why are many people unhappy?People often think happiness is based on what they achieve. “My whole life would improve if I had a new car.” But when you get the car and what happens? For a whole week you are walking on air. Then you go right back to being unhappy.Happiness is not a happening; it's a state of mind. Even though you have the whole world and you'll still be unsatisfied. And you have relatively(相对地) little but feel full of joy. Happiness comes from mastering the art of enjoying and taking pleasure in what you already have.(1)After the accident, the author didn't feel depressed anymore because________.A. the doctors could help him get his legs back.B. he must comfort his parents at that time.C. he knew depression made no difference to him.D. he was just a childish and forgettable kid.(2)In the author's opinion, the main cause of most people's unhappiness is they______.A. don't want to achieve more for future.B. pay so much and get so little.C. always compare with others.D. pay so much attention to what they have lost.(3)In paragraph 5, when the man gets the car he had expected______.A. he will choose to walk on foot for a week.B. the car will bring a lasting happiness to him.C. he will find the car is no help for him at allD. he will go back to be unhappy after a few days(4)The author wants to tell us _______.A. how one person enjoys a life without legsB. we should forget the loss and the gains in lifeC. happiness is just a state of mindD. our life will be improved if we fight for our dreams.【答案】(1)C(2)D(3)D(4)C【解析】【分析】本文主要讲述了作者在11岁时因一场车祸失去了双腿,但他却并没有因此消沉,而是意识到真正幸福的生活源自懂得满足,不能总在意那些已失去的。

(6分) (2018八下·深圳开学考) 阅读理解Giving generously (慷慨地) and receiving gratefully make it easier to live happily with others. Yet, why do we have such difficulty accomplishing these things in our relationships?Let me start with the idea of giving generously. I think people are reluctant to be generous with others because they fear being used. For example, my husband and I have family members who only contact us when they need money. We usually accept their requests (要求), but we rarely receive a "thank you". Most people would say that my husband and I are being used, and I suppose we are. But when we give, we shouldn't be giving for the purpose of getting gratitude or praise.Rather, we should be giving because it's the good thing to do. A "thank you" is merely the icing on the cake. Everything that we have, from our ability to wake up each morning to the money in our bank account, is a gift from the world. In return, the world asks us to use these gifts to help others, either by giving them our time or our resources. The good news is that when we live our lives being nice to others, our lives run more smoothly. If you're generous, yes, some people will use you. But if you practice being generous, most of your relationships will improve. And at the same time, we should remember to receive gratefully. I truly believe that you cannot say "thank you" enough. So often we get lazy about expressing gratitude. Parents can feel unappreciated by their children, and teachers can feel unappreciated by their students.Just because a task is part of someone's job description doesn't mean that you shouldn't thank them for it. Words of appreciation make others feel good about themselves like nothing else.It's good for us to say "thank you" because we regularly need to remind ourselves of how lucky weare. And hearing those two words can make us feel great for days. If you are looking for a secret solution to improve your life, I can give you one: Give generously and receive gratefully.(1) The author mentions her family members mainly to explain ______.A . why we should give even if we feel we are being usedB . why people have trouble expressing gratitudeC . why we should accept whatever others requestD . why it's necessary to express gratitude or praise(2) The phrase "the icing on the cake" probably means _______.A . something that is necessaryB . something that is not of much helpC . something that leads to an unexpected resultD . something that makes an experience better(3) According to the author, why should we be grateful to those who help us?A . Because it makes us feel lucky.B . Because words of gratitude delight people.C . Because it's not other people's duty to help us.D . Because all we normally get are gifts from the world.(4) The author wrote this article mainly to ______.A . stress the importance of being generousB . persuade people to give generously and receive thankfullyC . show how to express our gratitude to othersD . give tips on how to improve other people's lives4.
