When my son, Mark, was in the third grade, he saved all his pocket money for over three months to buy Christmas presents. The third Saturday in December Mark said he had made his list and had twenty dollars in his pocket.
I drove him to a nearby supermarket. Mark picked up a basket and went in while I waited and watched in the car. It took Mark over 45 minutes to choose his presents. Finally he came to the checkout counter and reached into his pocket for his money. It was not there! There was a hole in his pocket, but no money. Mark stood there holding his basket, tears falling down his face.
Then a surprising thing happened. A woman came up to Mark and took him in her arms. "You would help me a lot if you let me pay for you," said the woman. "It would be the most wonderful gift you could give me. I only ask that one day you will pass it on. When you grow up, I would like you to find someone you can help. When you help others, 1 know you will feel as good about it as I do now."
Mark took the money, dried his tears and ran back to the checkout counter as fast as he could. That year we all enjoyed our gifts almost as much as Mark enjoyed giving them to us.
I would like to say “thank you” to that very kind woman, and tell her that four years later, Mark went house to house collecting blankets and clothes for the homeless people in the fire. And I want to promise her that Mark will never forget to keep passing it on.

That was my grandmother's first Christmas without Grandfather. When my parents and I arrived at her little house ,we found she had waited up all night for us.
Grandfather had always said that the Christmas tree was the most important decoration (裝飾物) of all. So first we took out the beautiful tree that was stored in the closet (貯藏室). But the star was missing. It was my grandmother's favorite part of the tree.

Everyone worries. But how do you deal with your worries? Whether your worries are big or small, you can take these three steps to deal with your worries:
1. Try to find out what you're worried about
Sometimes, you will know what you're worried about. Other times, you might not. Try to find it out first; if you can't, you can ask for help.
2. Think of ways to make it better
There is always something you can do to help you feel less worried. Sitting there worrying is no fun and it won't solve your problem.
Grades at school are often top worries for kids. If you're worried about grades, ask yourself these questions:
★ Why are grades important? What do grades mean to me?
★How do I get ready for class? Do I go over my notes even when there isn't a test?
★ Do I have a good place to do my homework?
★ Have I tried different ways of studying?
If your worry is about a fight you had, you might write down all the things you could do: write a note to him or her, invite him or her to a basketball game, say sorry to him or her, etc. Once you have a list of things you could do, you can choose the one that gets your friend back.
3. Ask for help
When you're worried, it can help to find someone to talk to. You can ask your parents, friends, or teachers for help.
根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，選擇最佳答案。（5分）

Meng Meihui,14,from Dongying, Shandong, loved reading certain pieces of work. But she paid particular attention to her classmate’s every composition, just to find her faults.
“Everyone said she was better at writing than me. I didn’t believe it. I wanted to beat her,”Meng said. Meng was caught by the green-eyed monster-jealousy(嫉妒)
Jealousy is _____among students. Most people may feel a little bit unhappy when others are better than them. It’s natural. However, if students don’t change theirs mindset(思維方式)and deal with it well, jealousy can bring out many problems.
Su Lulu, 14, from Xiamen, Fujian， said those who are too jealous of others might lose _____easily.“Few people like those who always try to find faults in others,” Su said. “A popular student should be open-minded.”
Besides affecting students’ interpersonal(人際間的)relationships, jealousy may also limit students’ development.
Meng said that during that time, she paid too much attention to her competitor(競爭者)and_______to improve herself. “It was tiring and useless,” she said.
Luckily, Meng_____ realized the problem. She stopped her silly behavior and focused on her own progress.
Wang Xiao, a psychology(心理學)teacher at Huangshi Foreign Language School, Hubei, agreed with Meng’s practice. Wang said the best way to deal with jealousy is to turn it into motivation(動力)
“___those who are better than you and focus on yourself, ” Wang said. “It’s more important to improve yourself than to be better than others.”
Wang also suggested that students be confident about themselves. “Everyone has their advantages and disadvantages. Don’t _______your disadvantages with others’ advantages,” he said.
