If a friend gives us a hand when we are in need, it’s a good idea to write him a thank-you note.

【1】

“People don’t seem to walk around giving thanks to people quite often,” Amit Kumar from University of Texas said.【2】And how do people feel when they receive one?

Kumar and his team asked some students to write a thank-you note to another person by email. Then, they asked both the writer and the receiver how sending or receiving these notes made them feel.

They found that the students didn’t like to write the notes because they felt like they had to think too much about them.【3】

The receiver, however, enjoyed the notes. “When you are a receiver, you focus on the warmth of the note.” Kumar says. “How heartfelt was it? How friendly and warm? ”

The writers also thought the receiver might be shy for receiving a thank-you note. 【4】“The receiver feels quite happy,” Kumar says.“They don't really feel shy at all.”

Writing a thank-you note does have such a big influence on others.【5】Simple and small changes in our everyday lives can make a big difference to the way we treat other people and how we feel.

A. If people knew this, they would do it more often.

B. Thank-you notes can show our great love.

【解析】

本文介紹了如果朋友在我們需要幫助的時候伸出援助之手，給他寫一封感謝信是個好主意。但是很多學(xué)生不喜歡寫感謝信。寫感謝信對其他人會有很大的影響。如果人們知道這一點，他們會經(jīng)常寫感謝信。

【1】根據(jù)“People don’t seem to walk around giving thanks to people quite often,” Amit Kumar from University of Texas said.可知，人們似乎不經(jīng)常道謝。因此道謝的人少，故選F。

【2】根據(jù)“People don’t seem to walk around giving thanks to people quite often,” Amit Kumar from University of Texas said.可知，此處道謝的人少，因此詢問為什么人們羞于發(fā)送感謝信?故選C。

【3】根據(jù)“They found that the students didn’t like to write the notes because they felt like they had to think too much about them.”可知，學(xué)生們不喜歡寫感謝信，他們覺得必須想很多關(guān)于感謝信的內(nèi)容，因此他們擔(dān)心要寫的內(nèi)容。故選D。

【4】根據(jù)The writers also thought the receiver might be shy for receiving a thank-you note.可知，寫感謝的人會認為收到感謝信的人可能會不好意思收到感謝信，根據(jù)“The receiver feels quite happy,” Kumar says.“They don't really feel shy at all.”可知，實際上收到感謝信的人一點也不害羞，因此認為那些人的說法是不對的，故選E。

【5】根據(jù)“Writing a thank-you note does have such a big influence on others.”可知，寫感謝信對其他人會有很大的影響，因此如果人們知道寫感謝信的好處，他們會經(jīng)常寫的，故選A。

認真閱讀選項的句意，根據(jù)空格前后文語境，選擇適合的句子填空。例如小題1，根據(jù)“People don’t seem to walk around giving thanks to people quite often,” Amit Kumar from University of Texas said.可知，人們似乎不經(jīng)常道謝。因此道謝的人少，故選F。
