【题目】任务型阅读
It is reported that although our genes and environment play an important role, how happy we are largely depends on our choices and activities. The following are just several areas that tend to make a big difference to people's happiness.
Take a positive attitude
Positive emotions―like joy, gratitude, satisfaction, inspiration and pride― don't just feel good when we experience them. So although we need to be realistic about life's ups and downs, it helps to focus on the good aspects of any situation―the glass half full rather than the glass half empty.
Accept who you are and what you are
Learning to accept ourselves and being kinder to ourselves when things go wrong will increase our enjoyment of life. It also helps us accept others as they are. Ask a trusted friend or colleague to tell you what they think your real strengths are.

Caring about others is fundamental to our happiness. Helping other people is not only good for them; it's good for us too. It makes us happier and can help to improve our health. Giving also creates stronger connections between people and helps to build a happier society.
Take part in something bigger
People who have meaning and purpose in their lives are happier. They also experience less stress, anxiety and depression. It might come from doing a job that makes a difference, or spiritual beliefs, or our family. The answers may be different for each of us but they all involve being connected to something bigger than ourselves.
A. Our broader social networks bring a sense of belonging.
B. Nobody is perfect.
C. Give them a call or offer your support.
D. Try to make more use of these.
E. They also help us perform better, and improve our physical health.
F. But where do we find meaning and purpose?
G. Do things for others.

【题目】Sponsorship in Sport

Sponsorship in sport is usually in the form of financial assistance offered by a commercial organization to a person or a team in return for publicity.

Most people admit that sponsorship in sport is necessary. For one thing, sport has become increasingly expensive to manage, and players need money to be able to participate at a high level. For another, watching sport has become a major form of social entertainment, so sponsorship of sporting events helps companies to promote their products. 1 The only negative aspects for a sponsor are if an athlete should play badly or misbehave, but generally sport creates a good image (形象) for a company by conveying health and fitness.

2 The organizers of the Olympic Games have been criticized for accepting sponsorship from fast food companies. People question why the organizers take money from such companies. Public health experts believe if we really want to promote health alongside excellence in sport, then it must be linked by approvals for products which support good health. 3

Nowadays sponsorship is no longer limited to major events and professionals. Local teams and young players are also sponsored. There is a trend also for amateurs to rely on sponsorship for equipment, clothing, and to cover their expenses of training and competing even though they are not full-time sportspeople. So sponsorship enables major world events to become more impressive. 4 Besides, sponsorship enables us to view our favorite sporting event on television, even though it is taking place on the other side of the world.

However, such commercialization sometimes means compromise, and in fact, for some less popular sports it may be a negative factor, and it may even result in the end of that sporting code. Sports which are seen as less popular and therefore less commercially successful can no longer attract sponsors. 5 The uneven distribution of sponsorship could lead to the end of some less popular sports, and could reduce our freedom of sporting choice.

A. It shouldn’t be related to any unhealthy products.

B. Sponsorship may mislead players about sporting choices.

C. However, this has caused serious arguments for some major events.

D. The end goal for the sponsors is to deliver value and growth for their brands.

E. It also promotes participation at grassroots level, bringing sports to everyone.

F. Tax relief is another advantage, which means sponsorship can help to save money.

G. Sponsorship may create the situation of giving with the one hand and taking with the other.

【题目】Many kids help out around the house with chores such as emptying the dishwasher, putting laundry away, and taking out the trash. In exchange, some kids get allowances or other rewards such as extra computer time.

But some people do not think that kids should get rewards for doing chores. Susie Walton, a parenting educator and family coach, believes that by rewarding kids, parents are sending a message that work isn’t worth doing unless you get something in return. ’’Running any kind of household is a team effort, Susie said. "A home is a living space for everyone in the family. It’s important for kids to see that we all have responsibilities in the house, and that families decide together how they want their home to look, and how they are going to keep it looking like everyone wants it to look.”

Other people believe that getting a cash allowance or other rewards motivates kids to do chores, and it also teaches them real world lessons about how we need to work to earn money. There are also new applications that give kids points and digital gifts that can be redeemed (兑取) either online or in the real world. With the ChoreMonster app, kids earn digital points by completing chores that they can turn in for real-life rewards such as extra Xbox time or a trip to the mall. “Our goal is to encourage kids to earn rewards,’’ says Chris Bergman, founder of ChoreMonster. “Kids need positive reinforcement to help motivate them."

What do you think? Should kids be rewarded for doing chores? Or should kids help out around their homes without getting anything in return?

Write a 200-word response. Send it to tfkasks4you@timeforkids.com. Your response may be published in a future issue of Time For Kids. Please include your grade and contact information of your parent or teacher if you want your response to be published. The deadline for responding is February 18.
