Meanwhile, her Daddy was engrossed in conversation, and as he continued to chat with his family, Tegan would hand him a cup of tea. Her Daddy, who always
24、 tries to participate in her games, would pause for a few seconds from his conversation, and say all the proper words and gestures for her tea party which would thrill Tegan. He would request two lumps of sugar. He would tell her how wonderful her tea tasted, and then he would continue his adult con
25、versation with his family.After going through this routine several times, her Daddy suddenly awoke to reality as he had a flash of concern in his mind: She is only three years old, where is she getting this tea that Ive been dutifully drinking? He quietly followed her without her knowing, and his fe
26、ars were growing stronger as he saw her turn and go through the bathroom door.

30、d from their classmates and have a poor relationship with them. Sam is a newcomer and has had his share of school trouble before; Kelsey quietly carries her pain at losing her father; Judys sense of justice always annoys others; Brenton is the smartest child in the school, so smart that even his par
31、ents and teachers have trouble keeping up with him. When Brenton and his three classmates are put into the same study group by their teacher, the others discover that Brenton has made a time-saving gadget(装置) to do homework for him. Although the boy is perfectly able to do his homework himself, Sam,
32、 Kelsey and Judy can use his help.Having perfect grades is something new for these three, and as they meet every day to do homework, they find that theyre learning a lot about each other.

33、 get nervous. Soon theres an even more frightening problem why cant the Homework Machine be turned off?Told in different voices as all the children make statements to the Grand Canyon Police, the story develops in an interesting fashion.

37、ive (积极正面的) Thinking movement, which encourages us to be full of positive energy and let go of our anger. However, the truth is that anger is just an emotion, and emotions are neither right nor wrong. We do not consciously(有意识地) choose them. We do, on the other hand, choose how we express our emotio
38、ns and there are definitely right and wrong means of expression. The reason why were often advised to keep a lid on our anger is that few people ever learn proper and positive ways to express anger. Instead, we are taught that anger is wrong and you should keep your anger inside. But these messages
39、dont change the fact that for most of us, anger exists. Many popular Positive Thinking programmes assume that success comes from controlling our emotions and that this can be done by simply repeating positive statements. Interestingly, these positive slogans (口号) often include a lot of negativity(消极
40、负面性). Only losers complain(抱怨)! I am a winner! is one popular saying. The belief that those who disagree with us are losers is actually quite negative and is often used as an excuse for rude language and personal attacks. When it comes to dealing with negative situations in our daily lives, the abil
41、ity to reasonably express anger or disagreement is an important skill. But we must use balanced and non-violent methods to express our dissatisfaction. Frustration (挫折) at unfair policies or treatment can certainly cause anger, but our anger can never be an excuse for abusing (虐待) family members, da
42、maging schools, attacking doctors or most seriously, engaging in terrorism (恐怖主义).Instead of pretending that anger doesnt exist, we should start teaching appropriate (恰当的) means of dealing with anger. When we experience angry feelings in ourselves or others, what we should let go of is the silly ide
43、a that we can remove anger with just a few sweet words. Instead, we should find reasonable solutions to the causes of those angry feelings. We need to accept anger as a natural emotion but stop using it as an excuse for violent (暴力的)and destructive (破坏性的)behavior. Anger isnt wrong, but failure to de

It does not offer useful solutions for dealing with anger. C. Simply following its advice can improve peoples chances of success.D. Most of t

48、) friends cannot replace the real thing, say psychologists(心理学家).People are happier and laugh 50% more when they talk face to face with friends or via webcam (web camera) than when they use social networking sites, a study has found. Dr. Roberts, a famous lecturer at the University of Chester, said
49、such websites dont appear to help make true friendships. Based on two questionnaires(调查表), he found there was no link between Facebook use and people with larger groups of friends.Dr. Roberts, whose work will be presented at the British Psychological Society conference in Harrogate, said, The bottom
50、 line conclusion is that our relationships are not dependent on the quantity of communication. They depend on quality, and even Skype(一种网络即时语音沟通工具) is better at increasing the quality of our communication than time on Facebook. Even talking on the phone or texting does not make people feel as good a
51、s sharing a smile, the research says. The studies suggest quality, not quantity, of communication is the most important for keeping friends for life.People find the most satisfying relationships come from a small number of close friends, with an outer ring of 10 significant others. With these people
52、, it doesnt matter what type of social media you use for communication. But people who want to contact the world at large using Facebook can be disappointed because they spread themselves too thinly, claim researchers.In a third study, Dr. Roberts asked people to communicate with friends face to fac
