题目列表(包括答案和解析)
In our life, we don’t often express our gratitude(感激) to the one who has lived those years with us. In fact, we don’t have to wait for anniversaries(周年纪念日) to thank the ones close to us --- the ones so easily overlooked(忽视). If I have learned anything about giving thanks, it is time to give it now! While your feeling of appreciation is alive and sincere, act on it. Saying thanks is such an easy way to add to the world’s happiness.
Saying thanks not only brightens someone else’s world, it brightens yours. If you’re feeling left out, unloved or unappreciated, try reaching out to others. It may be just the medicine you need.
Of course, there are times when you can’t express gratitude immediately. In that case don’t let embarrassment(尴尬) sink you into silence--- speak up the first time you have the chance.
Once a young minister, Mark Brian, was sent to a remote area of Kwakiutl Indians in British Columbia. The Indians, he had been told, did not have a word for thanking you. But the Brian soon found these people had unusual generosity. Instead of saying thanks, it is their custom to return every favor with a favor of their own, and every kindness with an equal or superior kindness. They do their thanks.
I wonder if we had no words in our vocabulary for thanking you, would we do a better job of communicating our gratitude? Would we be more responsive(反应灵敏的), more sensitive, more caring?
