Kathy Fletcher and David Simpson have a son named Santi. He had a friend who sometimes went to school hungry. So Santi invited him to occasionally eat and sleep at his house.
That friend had a friend and that friend had a friend, and now when you go to dinner at Kathy and David’s house on Thursday night there might be 15 to 20 teenagers gathering around the table, and later there will be groups of them crashing in the basement or in the few small bedrooms upstairs. The kids who show up at Kathy and David’s have suffered the pains of modern poverty: homelessness, hunger, abuse.
And yet by some miracle, hostile soil has produced beautiful flowers. Kids come from around the city. Spicy chicken and black rice are served. Cellphones are banned. The kids who call Kathy and David “Momma” and “Dad,” are polite and clear the dishes. Birthdays and graduations are celebrated. Songs are performed. Each meal we go around the table and everybody has to say something nobody else knows about them. Each meal the kids show their promise to care for one another.
The adults in this community give the kids the chance to present their gifts. “At my first dinner, Edd read a poem that I first thought was from Langston Hughes, but it turned out to be his own. Kesari has a voice that somehow appeared from New Orleans jazz from the 1920s. Madeline and Thalya practice friendship as if it were the highest art form.”
“They give us a gift — complete intolerance of social distance. When I first met Edd, I held out my hand to shake his. He looked at it and said, “We hug here,” and we’ve been hugging since.”
Bill Milliken, a veteran youth activist, is often asked which programs turn around kids’ lives. “I still haven’t seen one program change one kid’s life,” he says. “What changes people is relationships. Somebody is willing to walk through the shadow of the valley of adolescence with them.” Souls are not saved in bundles. Love is the necessary force.
1.Why do kids come to Kathy and David’s house on Thursdays?
A. To help the homeless at first hand.
B. To experience the feeling of home.
C. To learn about the modern poverty.
D. To plant beautiful flowers in poor soil.
2.Why isn’t the use of cell phones allowed at Thursday dinners?
A. Kids need to tell stories about themselves.
B. Kids are expected to care more for each other.
C. Kids have to do house chores around the home.
D. Kids prepare songs for birthdays and graduations.
3.What gift did the writer get at a Thursday dinner?
A. The practice of the art form.
B. The pleasure of enjoying jazz.
C. The chance to listen to poems.
D. The zero distance between souls.
4.What does Bill mean in his words?
A. Love is the power to change a kid’s life.
B. Money is needed to start programs for kids.
C. A program can change a group of kid’s lives.
D. Kids change their relationships in a program.

In one study, college students who had important and reality-based conversations were more content than their peers who changed mere amusing remarks. But don’t deny small talks just yet.
Psychologists have long said that connecting with others is important to well-being, but just how much conversation we require is under investigation. In one study, researchers overheard(偷听) undergraduates for four days, and then cataloged each overheard conversation as either “small talks” (“What do you have done? Popcorn? Yummy!”) or “substantive”(实质性的交流)(“So did they get divorced soon after?”). They found that the second type correlated（相关） with happiness —the happiest students had roughly twice as many substantive talks as the unhappiest ones. Small talks, meanwhile, made up only 10 percent of their conversation, versus almost 30 percent of their conversation among the least content students.
But don’t deny small talks just yet. Scientists believe that small talks could promote bonding. Researchers found that a small talk maintains closeness with loved ones after studying ring-tailed lemurs’(环尾弧猴) call-and-response conversations, similar to human small talks. Still, joking with strangers could brighten your morning. In a series of experiments, those bus-takers told to chat with others are reported a more pleasant journey than those told to “enjoy your solitude” or to do whatever they normally would. Small talks can also help us feel connected to our surroundings. People who smiled at, made eye contact with, and briefly spoke with their Starbucks baristas (咖啡师) reported a greater sense of belonging than those who rushed through the transaction.
Of course, some of us are better than others at turning small talks into something bigger. All the differences come to what researchers call “a curious mindset”.
So go ahead to talk and inquire. Small talks needn’t be idle. And being curious about others’ business isn’t all bad.
1. According to the second paragraph, we can know that .
A. we can deny small talks because substantive talks are more important.
B. People who make more small talks are much happier than those making substantive talks.
C. the well-being is built largely due to the percentage of our substantive talks.
D. the least content students have twice the amount of small talks than those content students.
2.The benefits of small talks are the following EXCEPT .
A. It can make the bonding between people much closer
B. It can shorten the distance between strangers and make the journey pleasant
C. It makes us feel connected with the surroundings
D. You can get more free cups of coffee from Starbucks baristas
3.What’s the author’s attitude to small talks?
A. Negative. B. Supportive. C. Neutral. D. Critical.
4. The text mainly tells us that .
A. small talks are important in communication
B. substantive talks make people happier than small talks
C. small talks and substantive talks are equally important in life
D. substantive talks are important in communication
