How to Love Your Parents Even if you think that your parents are meanspirited at times,loving your parents is a normal and fulfilling part of life. You love them for the fact that they created you,raised you,and are in part a source of who you are. Here are some ways to love your parents.

1        A gentle" good morning" and" I love you”will warm the coldest heart. Remember that they brought you into this world. Without your parents,you might still wander at an unknown corner in an unknown world. Respect them more and cherish these moments.

It may seem like you are going through the hell when you don't get what you want or you have to clean. However,you had better remember they keep a roof over your head when it's cold,raining,snowing,or too hot. Understand that parents are human beings and make mistakes. 3       Since you can forgive your friends,why not forgive your parents?

Keep company with them. Do things with your parents like watching TV,or go somewhere with them. 4       Listen to their old stories and learn from them. You will find they are your teachers in this way or another.

Some people simply may not be able to love their parents. 5       Seek help if you are being abused in any way. Parents do not have a right to harm you.

敬爱父母，因为父母生养了我们，但是如何表达我们对父母的敬意？作者与我们分享了他的见解。

1. B考查总分关系。下文"A gentle 'good morning ,"与选项中"every morning "相吻合，且一天的行为从早晨开始，所以，B项正确。

2. D考查递进关系。当自己恼怒时，作者建议说：生气不能解决问题，要冷静下来，或对曰记倾诉，或与朋友交谈。之后，与父母交流情感。选项D与本段行文呈递进关系。

3. A考查顺承关系。上下文说道：父母也是人，也会有错，既然我们可以原谅朋友，为什么不可以原谅父母呢？"Forgiveness"是关键信息词。

4. E考查递进关系。本段作者劝告读者应多陪伴父母，文中"keep company with them "与选项E中"spend time with them "意思一致，故为正确答案。

5. G本句解释说明。由后文中关键词"being abused" ."harm you"可知，家长可能会伤害孩子。选项G中"family violence"有助于我们做出正确选择。

I think Christmas is the perfect time to show our kindness. Every year at Christmas my wife and I send 1        gift to someone anonymously (匿名地) .I feel that's the true 2       (mean) of Christmas―it is about giving rather than receiving.

My wife had a close friend whom she had grown up with. One year,just before Christmas,she lost her job. She had almost no one to turn to 3        help and she had two young children. It was really the 4 (hard) time in her life. I told my wife we should help her but we should do 5        anonymously.

We purchased a lot of necessities she would need from the supermarket and mailed them to her 6        no return address. We had a friend address the package 7        she would not recognize the handwriting. Besides,the package was mailed from the district 8        we did not live. Four years later,also at Christmas time,my wife9       (decide) to tell her whom the package was from. When she did,her friend just smiled,10       ( say) that from that Christmas on she had been helping others who were in need every Christmas.

Are you new to experiencing relationships? Well,let me give you some advice on how to have a healthy relationship with your partners.

1. Be an honest person with them. Don't hide things from them,and don't lie. Don't be afraid to say things that aren't very flattering about yourself. Getting them to trust you is the most important element in any relationship. If there's no trust,there's nothing there. 1      

2. Make sure you give them respect. Now,respect isn't just simply treating them nicely. 2       You have to learn to adjust to their likings. Basically,learn to study your partners'

moods,wants and needs. Don't just think about yourself,but think about what your partners need out of it as well.

4. Make sure you have a good sense of humor with them. Laughter is the key to happiness. Laugh a lot with them,and joke with them. Laughter may seem silly,but it's the secret to a lot in life. It will keep the sparks alive. 4      

5. Make sure the communication is good. This usually goes along with trust,so always communicate how you feel even if it's something that upsets you. 5       If they did something that made you unhappy,tell them about it in a respectful manner. It's important to communicate this to them,not to keep it bottled up.

Christmas is no fun when you're poor. Twenty years ago,I was a young,1       (struggle) , substitute teacher (代课老师) whose calls into work had been few. Money was tight,bills were due 2        my wife and I couldn't even afford to get Christmas gifts for each other. The only gifts we could get for our children were a few soft toys that I had found 3       (sell) at half price in the supermarket. I opened the door and brought in the gifts I 4       (hide) in our old car's trunk. Then I handed 5        to my son and daughter. I watched with a sad smile as they did their best to tear off the wrapping (包装) paper. As they pulled out their toys,though,I noticed their 6        lit up and they jumped up and down. My daughter 7       (happy) hugged her toy and then hugged her Mom and me as well. I laughed as I watched my children play with their toys 8       hours,and thanked God for the 9       ( great) gift I had ever been given. Till today I still treasure 10        gift of pure love that my son and daughter gave me that day.

Last week our class voted what to do for our class outing：visit the Singapore Zoo or go to the Night Safari (夜间动物园) .Our girls wanted to go to the zoo. And since we were in the minority,we lose to the boys,who all wanted to go to the safari. We got the admission rate for students,which was greatly since I still had enough money to buy a brochure about the park as well as anything at the souvenir shops. The safari was scary but a really fun. As we took the ride through the park's dark jungle,we could see the eye of many creatures looked out at us. Most of the animals there sleep when there is sunlight and waked up at night.

The kitchen is one of the most important parts of the house. You may think that,since it's only used for cooking,there's no need to pay much attention to its color. 1       Color influences people's mood and creates an atmosphere,and surely you want to be in a good mood when you're cooking.

To decorate a kitchen,first look for a theme which will influence the color scheme (方案) .The most common colors in kitchens are white,yellow and other light colors. Kitchens are usually painted in one color to create a clean and neat look. 2       Also,since kitchens tend to have smaller windows,the light colors help make it brighter. Neutral colors such as gray and cream can also be used to create some contrast.

3       Start with your favorite color,or two light colors that balance each other. Make sure that you test them thoroughly first so that you can be sure they'll actually work. For more adventurous kitchen owners,three colors next to each other can also work. But these need to be carefully chosen,because one wrong color can ruin the whole look of the kitchen. When the kitchen color scheme has been chosen,other elements must be considered. Some important things,such as cupboards,in the kitchen can affect its look. Tiles (免砖) and the floor must be chosen to fit the look. 4       Last but not least,no matter what color scheme you use,make sure that it really is the one you want.5      

   A. Many people want to decorate their kitchens with bright colors.

   B. Different colors have different effects on people's mood.

   C. Otherwise,get advice from other members of the family.

   D. The light colors make the room seem bigger than it is.

   E. There are different ways to create a color scheme.

   F. In a word,kitchen decoration must go together with the color scheme.

   G. But in fact,the color scheme of kitchen is as important as those of any other rooms.

    American restaurants have been talking about abolishing tipping for years. Now a major New York City restaurant group has announced a no-tip policy. The debate is starting to boil.

    When Danny Meyer,the boss of the restaurant group,talks,people listen. He's been right before. When he (禁止) smoking at Union Square Cafe,he was told he’d go out of business. However,his business improved. Ten years later,smoking in restaurants was against the law. Starting in November 2015,tipping began to be abolished at his 13 restaurants,the first major restaurant group to do this. It's been all over the news and everyone has an opinion. “Why not earlier?” some say. “Americans will not,” others insist.It’s clear that tipping is just the tip of the iceberg (冰山) .Beneath the surface are questions of pay fairness,labor law and rising costs. Tipping was borrowed from Europe more than a century ago and has been abolished there. But here,it's a deep-rooted American cultural practice.

    Usually,servers know there’s a higher chance that they’11 get a bigger tip on a bigger check,so they may push for more expensive items on the menu. Or they may rush customers out quickly to make room for new diners (and more tips!) . Basically,they may adjust accordingly to serve only the people they think will be the best tippers. Therefore,it is bad for customers.

    Besides,many servers puKtips together,so your reward is shared. Tips provide  large part of their income. But that money can't be shared legally with the un-tipped,low-paid kitchen workers. No wonder there's a growing labor shortage in restaurant kitchens. Meyer tried to abolish tipping 20 years ago,but the waiters disagreed. Is the time right now? The dining world will listen and watch.

5. We can learn from Danny Meyer’s story that

   A. people suggested he run more restaurants

   B. his ban on smoking succeeded beyond expectations

    C. his business failed because of his ban on smoking   

    D. he was threaten to shut his business

6. According to Paragraph 3 ,tipping .

   A. is quite popular in Europe

   B. is against labor law in America 

    C. spreads from Europe to America

   D. is disliked by most people in America

7. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?

   A. How customers tip.

   B. What servers do to get tips,

    C. How tipping came about.

   D. What customers think of tips.

8. Why are kitchen workers in short supply?

   A. They can't get tips.

.   B. Their income isn’t fixed,

    C.They can't see customers.

   D. Their work is very boring.
