Max's Good Habit

Max reads more than anyone he knows. He loves reading during all of his free time. His friends laugh at him because he would rather read than play video games, but his parents and his teachers are proud of him. They say reading is important, and it will help him learn about the world around him. They also tell him it is a good habit to read on a regular basis.

One day Max was reading a magazine article about volcanoes (火山). He told his friends all about volcanoes and what causes them to erupt (爆发). The very next week, his class was told to do a science project. It was to create a poster board with information about volcanoes and to build a volcano model. Guess who everyone wanted in their project group? Max's friends weren't laughing at him any more. Max ended up being in a group with Liz, Anna and Josh.

Max made copies of the magazine article about volcanoes so his project partners could read about them too. They also went to the library to look for more information about volcanoes.

The group met at Anna's house that night to organize (组织) the information. They all asked Max what he thought was the most important. Then they discussed and decided on the information they wanted to put on the poster board.

The next night they met at Josh's house to build their volcano. They used cardboard and modeling clay (黏土). First they made a volcano shape with the cardboard, and then they covered the shape in brown clay. They also fixed red clay to the top of the volcano to make it look like it was erupting.

The volcano looked great. Max, Liz, Anna and Josh were very proud of their hard work. When they turned in their project, their teacher was proud, too. Thanks to Max's good habit, they got an A+ on both parts of the project.

Answer the questions（根据短文内容回答下列问题）：

Jessica and Joyce were best friends in junior grade three. They did almost everything together. Then one day, after a misunderstanding（误解），Joyce stopped talking to Jessica. For more than three months, Joyce refused to talk to Jessica or answer her notes. “During that time, I found out what an important friend she was,” Jessica says, “ I couldn’t even give all my attention to my study, I just thought about how to heal（修复） our friendship. ”

The next term, Jessica tried again. This time，Joyce was also happy to work it out. It took some time and hard work, but the friendship was healed.

Most of us have suffered the pain of broken friendships. But the good news is that most friendships can be healed.

Oxford professor Michael Argyle recently finished a 15 - year study that found out what makes people happy. What did he find? The key to happiness is having one close relationship and network of friends. Other studies show that our social connections make us healthier. Keeping healthy friendship is worth the hard work!

If there’s broken friendship you'd like to heal, try the following advice：

Try to see things from your friend' s point of view.

Talk about the problems openly but kindly.

At first, Jessica didn't understand why Joyce slopped talking to her. Then Joyce finally explained that Jessica’s trick made her upset. “I finally found out she was angry because I made fun of her in front of the boys in our class. " Jessica explained. Jessica meant nothing by her trick and thought it shouldn’t make Joyce upset. But when she realized that it was embarrassing（令人 难堪的）to Joyce, she slopped. Then their friendship could heal.

It’s not strange for friendships to change. Problems come when one friend tries to keep on the other friend lets go. If your friend isn’t ready to work things out, accept it and move on.

1.Why did Joyce and Jessica stop talking to each other?

2.How did Jessica feel when Joyce didn’t want to talk to her?

3.After some time and hard work, Jessica and Joyce became friends again, didn't they?

4.According to Michael Argyle's study, what is the key to happiness?

5.Is it strange or common for friendship to change?

6.If your best friend does not talk to you, what will you do?
