He says, “You’re 45. Dad, you’re never going to wear this again. Can I have it?”Keith has had a bad day at work, and he is feeling old. And Jonny has hit his pain. Keith raises his voice and says, “What? You mean I’m too old to wear the jacket again?”Jonny feels like this has come out of nowhere, and now he feels hurt. But I only asked, “Why are you shouting at me?”“But I don’t like being treated as though I’m too old.” Both of them feel a bit upset.Have you ever had a similar argument with the people around you? Here are some tips for you to remember when you’re getting mad.● Accept your feelings and consider the other person’s feelings. That means not always making yourself “right” or “clever” and the other person “wrong” or “stupid”.● Explain yourself and not the other person, so you can speak out your ideas by starting with “I” but not “You”.● Don’t always have to reflect before reacting（回应）. If you feel angry, I think it’s a good idea to stop for a moment and understand why.●Don’t decide the purpose of the other person by your guessing. Try to work out whathe or she is feeling, and admit（承认）it if you were wrong.Don’t forget that it’s never too late to start the ways of communicating.26．From the passage, we can know Jonny ________.A．is school boy B．doesn’t like his dadC．thinks his dad is too old D．wants his dad’s new jacket 27．Jonny felt hurt because his dad ________.A．hit is pain B．had a busy dag C．liked the jacket D．was angry with him28．To avoid an argument, the writer gives us ________ suggestions.A．2B．3C．4D．5 29．According to the passage, if you want to express your ideas, you’d better begin like this: “________”.A．You misunderstood me…B．I know how you feel, but…C．They’re different from us…D．Things aren’t the same…30．The best title for the passage can be ________.A．Learn to Admit Your Mistakes BravelyB．Be Patient with the People around YouC．An Argument between a Father and a SonD．Good Ways of Communication Are ImportantWhen I was a girl growing up, I cannot once ever remember either my mum or my grandma wasting food.Anything we didn't eat at one meal was leftovers（剩菜）. I can remember my grandma making a huge pot of potatoes. We would all eat until we were full enough, but there were always about half of the potatoes leftover. A few days later, Grandma would take those potatoes out of the fridge, boil some noodles, add some vegetables and mix them all together. And I also remember when I watched my mum fry bacon （煎培根）for us in the mornings, she would always take the oil carefully and pour it into a bottle. Then she would use it later to add flavor to so many other dishes. I was an adult before I realized that potatoes didn't actually taste like bacon!I learned their lessons well, and after I grew up, I tried to never waste food myself. Ialways planned the week’s meals ahead of time and only bought what was on my shoppinglist so that nothing went to waste. Every meal went into our stomachs and any leftovers were later eaten by either myself my boys, my husband or, my dogs. To me, throwing food into the bin was just wrong.However, when it comes to living, there are no leftovers. Life is just like a feast. Each moment that you don’t live is lost forever. Life cannot be saved or stored. Each day is a fresh beginning. Live each moment of your life to the fullest, then.31．The writer’s grandma used the leftover potatoes to ________.A．mix with noodles B．boil some vegetablesC．fry bacon D．throw away32．Why did the potatoes cooked by the writer’s mum taste like bacon?A．Because she mixed the bacon with potatoes.B．Because she put potatoes into the containers.C．Because she was good at cooking.D．Because she poured the bacon oil into potatoes.33．According to the passage, how did the writer save food in her way?A．By shopping ahead of time.B．By throwing it into the litter bin.C．By following her mother's shopping list.D．By planning the next week’s food.34．What does the underlined word “feast” in the last paragraph probably mean?
