"Tammy! Come here, please! Mother needs your help in the kitchen." Her father called out to her.

Tammy was in her room, getting ready to do her homework. "Yes, Daddy!" she replied. "I'll be right there."

She hurried out of her bedroom and down the hallway. She was only nine years old. Her elder sister, Ella, had just moved away to go to a performing arts high school in another city. Her brother, Harry, was in middle school and always got home late. With Ella leaving home, Tammy was expected to do a lot more than she had ever done before, especially now, because her mother was ill.

Her father was in the kitchen. "Tammy, I know you usually do your homework right now, but with things being different, we all have to change a little bit. I'll help you and Harry with your homework later on, OK?"

Her father had an apron（围裙） on over his clothes, and he looked kind of funny. He was doing the dishes and he always splashed（溅出） water all over when he did that. After helping her father with the dishes, Tammy helped set the table.

After supper, her father helped her and Harry with their homework, and then they played a board game so that their mother could lie down for a while.

The next morning, Tammy got up early on her own because she wanted to help her mother with breakfast. She made orange juice and even put bread in the toaster and got out the butter so that her mother could sleep for a few more minutes.

When her mother got up half an hour later, she was very surprised and moved to see the breakfast on the dining table. She gave Tammy a big hug.

"Thank you, Tammy. You really are mother's little helper now, aren't you?"

Ronny’s Book

Ronny looked like every other kid in the first-grade classroom where I volunteered as the Reading Mom. However, Ronny was different from his classmates in other ways. He had a speech problem so he couldn’t _______ like other kids in his grade.

I worked with all the students in Ronny’s class one by one to improve their reading skills. On the days when it was Ronny’s _______, I’d give him a silent smile, and he’d fly out of his chair. He sat very close to me and opened the book as if he was opening a treasure nobody had ever seen.

I watched his _____move slowly under each letter as he struggled (努力) to read out. Every time he ___ to read a word with a strange pronunciation, the biggest smile would spread across his face and his eyes would shine with _______. It broke my heart each and every time.

A few weeks _______ the school year ended, I held an awards ceremony (颁奖典礼). I_______ Ronny with a book — one of those Little Golden Books that only cost $5. Tears ran down his face as he held the book close to him and went _______ to his seat. I stayed with the class for the rest of the day. Ronny never let go of (放开) the _____, not once. It never left his hands.

A few days later, I returned to the school to visit. I _______ Ronny on a chair near the playground, the book open in his lap. His teacher said, “He hasn’t put that book down since you gave it to him. Do you know that’s his _______ book he’s ever actually owned?”

Keeping back my tears, I walked towards Ronny, placed my hand on his shoulder and asked, “Will you read me your book, Ronny?” And then, for the next few minutes, he read to me more_______ than I’d ever thought possible from him. The pages were already dog-eared (卷角的), like the book had been read thousands of ___ already. When he finished reading, Ronny closed his book and said with great satisfaction(满意), “_______ book!”

What a powerful contribution the writer of that Little Golden Book had made in the life of a disadvantaged child.

阅读下面短文，并根据所读内容，在文章后第1～10小题的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。注意：每个空格只填1个单词。

Let’s face it: homework can be almost as frustrating (沮丧) for parents as it is for kids. Getting kids to do their homework can be a challenge, and when they do sit down to study, a lot of other problems can appear.

Doing homework may not be as fun as playing video games or chatting with friends, but it shouldn’t be something that kids hate. Your children’s assignments (任务) should help them build a skill or learn something new.

You can help by being a homework monitor, stepping in to answer questions or offer encouragement. This gives you a chance to see what they are learning and how well they understand the material. It helps you understand their learning style and shows you care about their education.

Many kids refuse to study by asking why they have to learn things they’ll never use in real life. If your son or daughter shows little interest in their assignments, you can make them seem more important by pointing out ways you use them in daily life.

If parents feel that their kids are overloaded (超负荷), they can talk about it with the teachers. If you think it takes your child too long to finish homework, try to make a decision whether the problem lies in having too much work or managing time poorly.

If your child complains of boredom while doing homework, give him or her the following suggestions:

Get help from friends: if your children are bored with an assignment, let them call a friend for help or invite a friend over to work on it with them.

Add physical activity: set mini-goals for homework and allow time for relaxing, jumping around, or a snack after each goal is completed. For a kid who can’t sit still, find active ways to study.

Turn the tables: let your children teach you a lesson. Let them give you a test on the things they have just learned.
