    It was a winter morning, just a couple of weeks before Christmas 2005. While most people were warming up their cars, Trevor, my husband, had to get up early to ride his bike four kilometers away from home to work. On arrival, he parked his bike outside the back door as he usually did. After putting in 10 hours of labor, he returned to find his bike gone.

    The bike, a black Kona 18 speed, was our only transport. Trevor used it to get to work, putting in 60-hour weeks to support his young family. And the bike was also used to get groceries（食品杂货），saving us from having to walk long distances from where we live.

    I was so sad that someone would steal our bike that I wrote to the newspaper and told them our story. Shortly after that, several people in our area offered to help. One wonderful stranger even bought a bike, then called my husband to pick it up. Once again my husband had a way to get to and from his job. It really is an honor that a complete stranger would go out of their way for someone they have never met before.

    People say that a smile can be passed from one person to another, but acts of kindness from strangers are even more so. This experience has had a spreading effect in our lives because it strengthened our faith in humanity（人性）as a whole. And it has influenced（影响）us to be more mindful of ways we, too, can share with others. No matter how big or how small, an act of kindness shows that someone cares. And the results can be everlasting.

    1.Why was the bike so important to the couple?

    A. The man’s job was bike racing.

    B. It was their only possession.

    C. It was a nice Kona 18 speed.

    D. They used it for work and daily life.

    2.We can infer from the text that ____________.

    A. the couple worked 60 hours a week.

    B. people were busy before Christmas

    C. the stranger brought over the bike

    D. life was hard for the young family.

    3.What do the couple learn from their experience?

    A. Strangers are usually of little help.

    B. One should take care of their bike.

    C. News reports make people famous.

    D. An act of kindness can mean a lot.

    4.Which one do you think is NOT TRUE according to the text?

    A. The couple will never steal bikes in revenge.

    B. The couple will try their best to help others in trouble.

    C. Trevor bought a new Kona immediately after someone stole his old one.

    D. The couple got some help from several people in their area.

    Anger often makes us uncomfortable. When you find your anger too uncomfortable to process, please let it go. But remember to create a healthy anger in your children is to practice creating a healthy anger in yourself. Once you're better at experiencing anger and expressing it in a healthy way, you'll be able to model a good style of anger for your kids.

    Some kids deal with anger by creating a "false self": a child who is perfect for their parents. People who have developed a false self are often passive aggressive and seem shallow because they've hid away all the feelings with depth and character.

    How do we keep kids from creating false selves? We need to raise them in an environment where it's safe to express feelings. Once you feel more comfortable with your own anger, you can teach your children why anger is a helpful emotion. When your kid expresses anger, help them examine what it is that has made them angry. Why did it make them angry? How did it do that? Then, you can teach them that while emotions are never wrong and are always valid, our expressions of our emotions are within our control.

    People who are afraid of their own anger will never learn how to listen to what their anger is trying to tell them. Instead of teaching our kids that their anger is wrong, that "happy families" are never angry, or that all feelings of anger lead to violence and fear, we can teach our children that anger is OK. Anger is natural, it is normal, and it can be experienced and expressed in a healthy way.

    1.What is the main idea of the first paragraph?

    A. Anger makes us uncomfortable.

    B. Anger is difficult to deal with.

    C. Parents often lose their temper at home.

    D. Parents should model a good anger style.

    2.What would a child be like if he developed a “false self”?

    A. Polite and optimistic.

    B. Perfect and helpful.

    C. Negative and indirect.

    D. Rude and dishonest.

    3.What’s the main purpose of the last 2 paragraphs?

    A. To give tips to create healthier anger.

    B. To suggest ways to avoid anger.

    C. To show the harm anger does to kids.

    D. To stress the importance of expressing anger.

    4.In which part of a website can we read the passage?

    A. Food& Recipes

    B. Psychology & Health

    C. Life & Entertainment

    D. School& Education
