.阅读表达
[1]One of the most common questions parents ask me is, “How, in this materialistic(物质至上), competitive world, can I raise kind children？” My answer to this question is to begin by ________. When your child sees you going the extra mile to help a friend, carrying someone's luggage, making a meal for a new family that just moved in, or inviting people into your life who aren't exactly like you, he will naturally see this as the right way to live.
[2]We are mirrors for our kids. When children observe your examples of kindness, they'll know where to begin. One day, I mentioned that I had a belly ache, and my 8yearold rushed up the stairs to run a bath, turn down my bed, and lay out my favorite nightdress. You know who had treated her belly aches in just such a way.
[3]Kindness_is_a_quality_that_isn't_often_rewarded_in_our_schools,_so_we_must_make_great_efforts_to_encourage_it_at_home. Kids are naturally sympathetic from an early age: As newborns, they cry when they hear another baby crying; they offer their favorite doll to the friend who has hurt his knee. We tend to expect our young children to grow out of this sympathy and become self－centered. “Oh it's the terrible twos(两三岁的年龄)，” we say. “Kids just can't share at this age.” What if we changed our expectations and saw our kids as truly caring beings? Boys in particular are often rewarded for being clever or brave, but not often for showing sympathy.

4．Which side do you think plays a more important role in developing children's kindness, the school or the family? Why? (no more than 30 words)
_______________________________________________________
5．Translate the underlined sentence into Chinese.
_______________________________________________________
答案：
1．Tips on raising a kind / caring /sympathetic child.
How to develop children's kindness.
How to raise a kind child.
2．When children observe your examples of kindness, they'll know where to begin.
3．being a kind adult、being a kind parent、showing kindness to others、setting a good example of kindness to children
4．I think the family does. Because parents are not only kids' first teacher but mirrors for kids
I think the school does
kids spend more time in shcools and the teaching in class plays a deeper effect on the kids
5．善良是一种在学校里不大经常受到奖赏的品质，因此我们必须努力在家里大力倡导这种品质
