Once a small boy lived on a farm which seemed so far away from everywhere.

He needed to get up before sunrise every morning to help his father on the farm. During sunrise he would take a break and climb up on the fence (籬笆) along the side of the farm. He could see a house with golden windows. "If they could afford golden windows, then there must be other nice things inside the house." He imagined how great it would be to live there. Then he promised himself, "Some day I will go there and see this wonderful place."

One morning, his father would go to the town and told him to stay at home for a rest. Knowing that this was his chance, he took a sandwich and headed across the field toward the house with the golden windows.

As the afternoon went on, he began to realize how wrong he was. The house was much farther than he had expected. As he went near the house, he saw no golden windows but instead a place in bad need of painting. A small girl very close to his age came out of the poor house and stood by the broken fence. He asked her if she had seen the house with the golden windows.

The girl said, "Sure, I know." and invited him to sit on the porch(門廊).As he sat there, he looked back from where he just came. There he saw the sunset(夕陽(yáng))turned the windows of his house to gold! Now he understood that everyone had his own house with golden windows.

2.One morning, when knowing he would stay alone, the boy thought it was a chance for him to _______.

Respect(尊重)is something often given to strangers, like politeness, but many people often forget to use it at home. Showing respect for family members needs more thoughts.

Show politeness. If politeness is good for strangers, it's good for home use as well. Remember to say "please" and "thank you", "hello" and "goodbye", "good morning" and "good evening". These are basic rules of etiquette, which can show your respect for family members when they are used in communication with them.

Defend your family members. There's no need to go out and cause trouble to protect your family. But when you're in public, watch what you say about your family members. When you face criticism(批評(píng))from others, defend your family. After all, their bad habits have a bad effect on you too.

Give them space to grow up. Respect sometimes requires you to mind your own business; even at home. For example, respect your sister's choice of her boyfriend, even when you don't agree, by allowing her to make her own decisions and being there to support her when they don't have a happy ending. Skip the "I-told-you-so" out of respect for your sister and your family connection.

Keep communication. You don't have to agree with your family members to show them respect. Even though you don't agree with it, remember to respect a family member by continuing to communicate with that person. Once you have stated your own opinion, though, you may want to avoid the disagreeable subject.

1.The underlined word "skip" in the fourth paragraph may mean " ".

A. 略過(guò) B. 跳躍 C. 改變 D. 移動(dòng)

2.Which of the following shows your respect to your family members?

A. Make decisions for your sister．

B. Protect your family in spite of making trouble

3.What should you do if you disagree with your family members?

A. Keep communicating but avoid unpleasant subjects.

B. Stop talking to them．

C. Never discuss with them again．

D. Change your own opinion．

4.What would be the best title for the passage?

A. Why Should You Respect Family Members

B. How Should You Defend Family Members

C. How Should You Respect Family Members

D. Why Should You Respect Family Members' Choices

5.This article is probably taken from .
