Our little boy came up to his mother one evening while she was cooking supper, and handed her a piece of paper with some words written on. And this is what it said:

For cutting the grass in the garden $5.00

For cleaning up my bedroom this week $1. 00

For going to the store for you $0. 50

For baby-sitting my kid brother while you went shopping $2. 25

For taking out the rubbish $1. 00

For getting a good report card $5. 00

Total owed (欠): $14.75

After reading, his mother thought for a while. Then she picked up the pen, turned over the paper and wrote:

For the nine months I carried you while you were growing inside me—free

For the nights and days I worried about you—free

For the toys, clothes, food—free

For all the love I’ve given you—free

Then with tears in his eyes, our son looked straight up at his mother and said, “Mom, I love you. ” And he took the pen and wrote: “PAID IN FULL”.

完型填空:阅读短文,从每题所给选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

If you think you are too shy(害羞的)and want to be a little braver, just try the following things.

Be open to others. Tell people you are shy. There is no need to it. When they get to know you are a child, they will understand you better. This also helps you feel more comfortable in talks.

Try to smile more. When you smile, people think you are and easy to talk with. Remember that other people have feelings too, and most people will keep away an angry-looking (充满怒气的) face.

Learn to be a good talker. If you find it hard to start a talk, say something nice about people around you. Think about how great you feel someone says something nice to you. You can’t stop talking to that person, right?

Don’t too much. Think more about ways to enjoy parties or games. Don’t too much time worrying about your look or whether (是否)people like you or not. You will become relaxed(放松) and find it’s not so hard to talk with others.

Take one small step(步) at a time. Each time after you say or smile at someone for the first time, say to “I did it”, or even buy an ice cream as a reward(奖赏).

Always try and one day you’ll feel shy when you talk to others.
