The first time I saw him, （2）I was too shy to speak to him. “My English is too bad！”I thought. My grandmother told me that he had just moved into our yard. “I don’t like it!” she said, "Foreigners aren't like us. Maybe he’ll play loud music and have parties every night! I' m sure he’s going to cause trouble."
Several days later, I met the foreigner as I was walking home after work. "Hello!" he said in Chinese! "My name's Tony. I've just moved into the house next door to yours. “While I was wondering what to say, he continued, "There's a nice bar down the road. Why don’t you and your family come to the bar and have dinner with me? “Bars are bad places," said my grandmother when I told her, but we decided to go. （3）The bar was not at all what I had expected. It was in a beautiful little yard house, with several large bookshelves and pictures of Tibet on the walls. Several Chinese people and foreigners were sitting drinking or reading books. I noticed that some of the foreigners were speaking reading books. I noticed that some of the foreigners were speaking place.
The bar served special "hutong pizzas". As we ate, Tony told us about himself—he is an English expert (專家) in environment. He always likes to be quiet. My grandmother said to me, “He really seems like a very nice young man.” Yes, Tony is my new neighbor, a nice foreigner.

What would you do if he is not here when you return?” I did not know how to answer that question. He continued, “It’s OK if you can’t find the shoe, but it is not OK to lose your brother.” Then he sent us to mum’s workplace by taxi.

Jealousy is _____among students. Most people may feel a little bit unhappy when others are better than them. It’s natural. However, if students don’t change theirs mindset(思維方式)and deal with it well, jealousy can bring out many problems.

Luckily, Meng_____ realized the problem. She stopped her silly behavior and focused on her own progress.
Wang Xiao, a psychology(心理學(xué))teacher at Huangshi Foreign Language School, Hubei, agreed with Meng’s practice. Wang said the best way to deal with jealousy is to turn it into motivation(動(dòng)力)
“___those who are better than you and focus on yourself, ” Wang said. “It’s more important to improve yourself than to be better than others.”

Some people think only school children do not agree with their parents, however, it is not true. Communication is a problem for parents and children of all ages. If it’s hard for you to communicate with your parents, don’t worry about it. Here is some advice for you to bridge the generation gap(消除代溝)。
Don’t argue with your parents. Don’t get to your parents when you are angry. Your parents probably won’t consider your ideas if you are shouting at them. And you can’t express yourself well if you are angry. Go someplace to cool off. Make sure you understand why you are unhappy. Then think about what you want to say to your parents. If you don’t think you can speak to them at the moment, try writing a letter.
Try to reach a compromise (和解). Perhaps you and your parents disagree on something. You can keep your disagreement and try your best to accept each other. Michael’s mother didn’t agree with him about buying a motorcycle. They argued over it. But they finally came to a compromise. Michael bought the motorcycle, but only drove it on certain days.
Of course, your parents might refuse to compromise on something. In these situations, it is especially important to show love and respect to them. Showing respect will keep your relationship strong.
Talk about your values(看法). The values of your parents are probably different from those of your own. Tell your parents what you care about, and why. Understanding your values might help them see your purposes in life.
A good relationship with your parents can make you a better and happier person. It is worth having a try!
【小題1】The passage tells us ______ have a communication problem.

A．parents and other people
B．school kids and their parents
C．teachers and their students
D．parents and children of all ages
【小題2】Your parents probably won’t consider your ideas if you ________.
A．don’t get to them often
B．write a letter to them
C．don’t speak to them politely
D．express yourself well
【小題3】The underlined phrase “cool off” in the passage means “__________”
A．to make yourself happy
B．to get you quiet and relaxed
C．to have a good rest
D．to hide yourself quickly
【小題4】 If there’s really a generation gap between you and your parents, you’d _______________.
A．have a talk with them often
B．keep away from them
C．a(chǎn)gree with them all the time
D．know about their values

It was a cold winter afternoon before Christmas. My parents and I sat on the bench in Washington, D.C.’Union Station, waiting for the train. Inside the waiting hall were many people.
A boy sat nearby. His worn jacket, pale face, dirty hands all seemed to tell me that he was homeless.
“He must be cold and hungry. Maybe I should help him,” I said to myself.
Just at that moment, a well-dressed young couple walked towards him.
“Excuse me,” the man bent down. “My wife and I bought two meal boxes but one was enough for us. We hate to waste good food. Can you help us out and put this to use?” he handed the boy a meal box.
The boy thanked them and opened the box with joy and care. Suddenly he stopped. In the direction to which he looked, I saw an old man in rags-in a worn sweater, worn trousers and open shoes, entering the hall.
Putting the meal box aside, the boy stood and helped the old to his seat. He took off his jacket and covered it on the old man’s shoulders, saying, “A gentleman brought me this warm meal but I just finished eating. I hate to waste good food. Can you help me out?” He placed the still-warm meal box in the old man’s hands without waiting for an answer.
“Sure, son, but if only you share that sandwich with me. It’s too much for a man at my age. ”
We were all touched. Dad went away and soon returned with cups of hot chocolate and a big pizza. Mum and dad went up to those rags, “Excuse me…”
I rushed into a KFC and took out my pocket money. It was so cold that afternoon but I felt much warmer than I had ever thought possible.
【小題1】Who gave the boy a meal box?

A．The young woman. B．The old man.
C．The young man. D．Mum and Dad.
【小題2】Why didn’t the boy have the meal?
A．He was not hungry.
