【解析】

这是一篇说明文。文章说明了向自己所爱的人表达感激之情的六种方法。

【1】根据上文You can write these cards to your best friend, and（你可以把这些卡片写给你最好的朋友）可对应到F选项：也不需要等到特殊的场合才寄出。其中F选项中send可对应上文cards。故选F。

【2】根据上文If you want to express your gratitude, then you shouldn't do favors for your friends just because they've helped you out recently or because you want something in return.（如果你想表达你的感激之情，那么你不应该仅仅因为你的朋友最近帮了你的忙或者你想要一些回报就帮他们。）以及Instead“相反”可知应选B：帮助他们，因为你关心他们。故选B。

【3】根据下文Don't compare the person's experiences to your own unless you really think it will help.（不要把别人的经历和你自己的比较，除非你真的认为这样会有帮助。）可知除非对方要求的情况下，否则不要随便给别人建议。故选C。

【4】根据下文and to show that you appreciate all of the love, rides, food, help, and any other offerings they have given you.（表达你对他们给予你的爱、乘车、食物、帮助和其他一切的感激之情。）可知建议要对家人表达自己的爱，故E选项：记住每天都要告诉他们你爱他们。符合语境。故选E。

【5】根据下文Another way to express gratitude is to thank a person in front of other people.（表达感激的另一种方式是在别人面前感谢一个人。）可知是建议公开表达对他人的感激之情。故选G。

七选五做题技巧。做题的时候边读边做。各个问题附近的句子都需要重点阅读，圈画一些线索，再从选项中寻找相关的特征词用来判断正确答案。带入排除法也是一种很好的方法。另外，如果发现有一题拿不准的，先跳过，先做容易的能做出的题，直到读完整篇文章。至此，文章的要点和主旨、各个段落之间的逻辑关系应该基本就能清楚了。然后再回过去做之前不确定的题目。如第四小题，根据下文and to show that you appreciate all of the love, rides, food, help, and any other offerings they have given you.（表达你对他们给予你的爱、乘车、食物、帮助和其他一切的感激之情。）可知建议要对家人表达自己的爱，故E选项：记住每天都要告诉他们你爱他们。符合语境。故选E。
