It announces to be"the nicest place on the Internet",where happy people can present their positive thoughts and feelings to those who are in low spirits.

I think it could really be a help to people that are feeling down or sad. It may even stop them from doing something stupid. You can also post your video to the website, and they add it to the series. It's very easy to share the love."

Q: Read the article and select the best answer. Article: Tears filled my eyes when I stood in our room. I was washing new jeans and a shirt of my 16-year- old stepson , Brett. He drank a lot last night. The clothing was already dirty. I was very tired. The clothes were just one thing. He had already kicked a large hole in his bedroom wall. Many windows were broken because of his breaking in to steal money. Brett came to live with us when he was 12 years old. During those four years I had dealt with Brett as patiently as possible, but inside I was feeling sad. Later, I cheered up again and continued parenting Brett. Still, Brett did not change his behavior. When Brett was nearly 18, my husband and I decided to send Brett to a boarding school that had very good result with troubled teenagers. At the graduation ceremony the graduates stood one by one to thank those who had helped them. Each graduate held a rose to give to the person who had meant the most to him or her. Brett spoke lovingly to me, "You did so much. You were always there, no matter what happened.You always showed me such love. And I want you to know that I love you for "it". Surprised, I stood as Brett placed the white rose in my hand and hugged me hard. At that moment I realized the truth-although I had been angry in my heart toward my stepson, Brett had seen only my actions. Question: What's the main idea of this passage? Options: A: Love is everywhere. B: Love is action. C: Love is coming. D: Love is surprise.

Question: Read the article and select the best answer. Article: A few years ago, I worked at a church . Since my son was home schooling, he went with me to the church every day. Most mornings, we'd stop at a local store, and get a chocolate drink for him and a cup of coffee for me. The clerk at the store made our lives more enjoyable each day, and so we returned again and again. She had found her own way of enjoying life and her job. I'm not even sure if she realized that her warmth and brightness put a smile upon the face of each customer . When a customer brought cakes to the counter, any other clerk could have asked: "Would you like some milk with those cakes?" Instead, she asked: "Would you like a lottery ticket with those cakes?" She might have asked me if I wanted sugar with my coffee. But instead, she asked: "Would you like some batteries with that coffee?" Yes, life is what you make of it. This clerk's method of dealing with what some think is a boring job, and with the customers she met daily, made the hours in her day more enjoyable. In doing that, she also refreshed the lives of others and made them laugh. Sometimes, if my day at the church had been very tiring, we'd stop at that store before going home. We'd giggle as we left the store, the clerk's words echoing behind us. "Would you like some shampoo with that orange juice?" Question: The clerk at the store may ask the customers, " _ " Options: A: Would you like some milk with the cakes? B: Would you like some bread with the milk? C: Would you like batteries with the toys? D: Would you like pencils with the cake?
Answer: D
