It’s very important to stay close, get on, and build a strong relationship with your parents. But not every child knows how to do this. Here are some ways to help you. Spend time together. Instead of playing a computer game or watching TV ask your mom and dad to play with you. Go outside together, try a board game (棋类游戏), or read a book aloud. Be kind. Little things might mean a lot to your mom or dad. You can brighten (点亮) a parent’s day with a hug (拥抱), a card, or a joke. It’s also lovely when a kid cleans up his or her room without being asked. And if you try not to fight with your brothers or sisters, your parents might be very happy! Do your best at whatever you do. You don’t have to be perfect, but when you try your best, you will make your parents proud (骄傲的). It makes them happy to see how you’re turning into a great kid. Why? Because they know you’re on the way of doing a good job. 46. Paragraph (段落) 1 mainly tells us ________________________.（10个词以内） 47.

It’s very important to stay close, get on, and build a strong relationship with your parents. But not every child knows how to do this. Here are some ways to help you. Spend time together. Instead of playing a computer game or watching TV, ask your mom and dad to play with you. Go outside together, try a board game (棋类游戏), or read a book aloud. Be kind. Little things might mean a lot to your mom or dad. You can brighten (点亮) a parent’s day with a hug (拥抱), a card, or a joke. It’s also lovely when a kid cleans up his or her room without being asked. And if you try not to fight with your brothers or sisters, your parents might be very happy! Do your best at whatever you do. You don’t have to be perfect, but when you try your best, you will make your parents proud (骄傲的). It makes them happy to see how you’re turning into a great kid. Why?
