In a book called Magnificent Obsession,by Lloyd C.Douglas,a description is given of people helping others but doing it secretly.When difficult problems worried an individual,friends nearby would meet to discuss possible solution without the individual knowing their actions.When a solution was agreed upon,one or two of the friends would carry out the plan and solve the problems secretly,to the great delight of the worried individual.The helpers would stand by privately,contented with their success.No reward was given to the problem solvers,not even a sincere “thank you”,because they were never known.

This concept is popular today but in a different way.The phrase “pay_it_forward” is now used when one person helps another.However,the person being helped may not be able to repay the person or group that helped them.So rather than return the favor to their helpers,they are supposed to help someone else in the future,which means they pay it forward.It is the sense of responsibility that makes us want to give back in equal measure to the one who has helped us.But,in this case,the responsibility turns to helping someone in the future.

Suppose your elderly grandmother pays part of your schooling.She may tell you there is no need to repay her because it is a gift from someone who loves you very much.Nothing would please her more than to have you use her money to get a good education.

You may never be able to repay her for such a gift.However,she not only gave you some money,but she provided you with an example that you should also help other people who need it.

People with serious needs are everywhere.Many are children who need better clothes,more books and even better schools.Some are elderly people who can’t afford their medicine or a doctor’s care.Consider how you can “pay it forward”rather than pay money back to your grandmother.

1.The helpers in the book Magnificent Obsession were not rewarded because________.

A.they hadn’t solved the problems thoroughly

B.they had solved the problems secretly

C.they were friends of the worried individual

D.they expected to be paid back in the future

A.to repay someone who has helped you

B.to pay someone else who needs help

C.to help someone who has helped you

D.to help someone else who needs help

3.What does the writer suggest with the example of “your elderly grandmother”?

A.We should learn to respect our grandparents.

B.We should work hard to get a good education.

C.We should also lend a hand to other people in need of help.

D.We should never forget to repay people for their help.

4.By writing the passage,the author wishes people in the world to be________.

Parents and the Young

It is natural that young people are often uncomfortable when they are with their parents.

1. They often think that their parents are out of touch with modern ways, that they are too serious and too strict with their children, and that they seldom give their children a free hand.

It is time that parents often find it difficult to win their children’s trust and they always forget how they themselves felt when young. 2. It is one of their ways to show that they have grown up and they can face any difficult situation. Adults worry more easily. Most of them plan things ahead.

Young people make their parents angry with their choices in clothes, in entertainment and in music. But they do not mean to cause any trouble: It just shows that they feel cut off from the adult’s world, and they have not yet been accepted into their world. 3. And if their parents do not like their music or entertainment or clothes or their way of speech, this will make the young people very happy.

Sometimes you are so proud of yourself that you do not want your parents to say “yes” to what you do. 4. It is natural enough, after being a child for so many years, when you were completely under your parents’ control.

5. If your parents see that you have a high sense of responsibility, they will give you the right to do what you want to do.

A. Parents should understand young people.

B. Young people like to live with their parents.

C. Young people like to act without much thinking.

D. They say that their parents don’t understand them.

E. All you want is to be left alone and do what you like.

F. If you plan to control your life, you’d better win your parents.

G. That’s why young people want to make a new culture of their own.
