　　In a more reflective tone, Annabel said, “I once took a workshop at church where the woman in charge had us list all the mean things we say about ourselves.”

　　“How many did you have on your list?” I asked.

　　“Fifteen,” she confessed. “But then the teacher said, ‘Now turn to the person next to you and say all the items on your list as if you were speaking to that person!’ ”

　　My jaw dropped. “What did you do?”

　　“Nothing. Nobody did. We all just sat there, until I said, ‘I could never say these things to anyone else!’ ”

　　“And our teacher replied, ‘Well, if you can’t say them to anyone else, then don’t ever say them to yourself!’ ”

　　My friend had a point. I would never insult a child of God---and I’m God’s child, too!

　　God, today let me be as kind to myself as I would be to another of Your children.

　　閱讀理解特訓參考答案：

　　善待自己也是一門學問，不要為了一點小事就責備自己，像善待他人一樣善待自己吧。

　　1.B 細節理解題判斷題。通過對后面文章的閱讀可以知道，作者的朋友只是一種夸張評論作者自責的行為，并不是真的和奧林匹克運動有關，因此可以排除A,D。又由第二段的stun震驚，可知作者的朋友并不是在鼓勵她，而是在取消作者。

　　2.A 細節理解判斷題。由二三段可知，作者因為小事就會一直責備自己，說明作者自信心不夠。B，D選項過于絕對。而C文中提到的作者只是代課，不一定就是三年級的老師。

　　3.D 詞義推斷題。根據上下文，可知是不好的詞，而且后面說了紙張散落在桌子上，因此可以推斷是懶惰得不愛整理桌子，可知是D。

　　4.C 細節推斷題。根據上文，可知作者通過朋友的開導決定要善待自己，而不是像上帝求助。所以可知A,B,D都是錯誤的。

　　Almost everyone loves trees, but did you know that trees can help people heal faster?

　　It’s true. According to the ISA (International Society of Arboriculture), hospital patients have been shown to recover faster when offered a view with trees. And while trees certainly benefit any landscapes—whether lining residential streets, dotting urban areas, or in full glory in the forest—they are actually important to our daily well-being.

　　Trees improve the quality of the air around us by absorbing dust and other particulates (微粒), and release clean oxygen for you to breathe. If the health of people and the environment aren’t high on your list of concerns, perhaps your wallet is: Trees make economic sense. A home surrounded by trees costs less to cool and heat. Neighborhoods with trees are often several degrees cooler than those in similar climates that don’t have trees. In winter, trees can keep your house warmer by blocking high winds. Also, less water is needed in tree-shaded areas where the sun isn’t constantly boating down on the earth below.

　　Besides, trees can enhance privacy, block unpleasant views, and improve the value of your home. Unfortunately, these days, mass construction projects tend to wipe out all the trees in an area before creating new neighborhoods and buildings. That’s why it’s more important than ever to plant a tree in your community.

　　Check out the NADF (National Arbor Day Foundation) online to find out more about planting a tree in your area or how to volunteer in an urban center. The Arbor Day Foundation can tell you how to plant a tree in someone’s name as a gift, donate a tree in someone’s honor, or memorialize a loved one by planting a tree.

　　5.According to the ISA, a sick person in hospital can get well sooner if he or she ______.

　　A. Trees benefit any landscape as well as human beings.

　　B. Trees take in dust and dioxide and release clean oxygen.

　　C. The health and the environment aren’t on people’s list of concerns.

　　D. People in tree-shaded areas can reduce their cost on house holding.

　　7.It is more necessary than ever to plant trees mainly because they ______.

　　A. improve the quality of the air B. make economic profits

　　C. are destroyed for mass construction D. are used to insure privacy

　　閱讀理解特訓參考答案：

　　樹的好處難以一一列舉，盡管如此，大規模的建設卻將它們毫不留情地鏟除。參加植樹活動吧，為自己，為別人，也為我們賴以生存的地球增添一片綠蔭。

　　5.B。細節理解題。根據第二段中的“...hospital patients have shown to recover faster when offered a view with trees”可判斷B項正確。A項中的glance表示“瞥了一眼”，與原文不符;后兩項在文章中沒有信息支持。

　　6.C。細節理解題。第三段前半部分中的“If the health of people and the environment aren’t high on your list of concerns”是說“假如你不太關心人們的健康和環境”，這只是假設，因此C項不正確。

　　7.C。細節理解題。結合倒數第二段的中間部分和最后部分可知C項正確。其余三項敘述的都是樹的某種用途。

　　8.A。文章結構題。根據最后一段的開頭部分可知文章接下去要敘述的是NADF網站。B、D兩項只是網站涉及的部分內容;C項在本段中沒有信息支持
