Nowadays parents and their children are spending less and less time communicating with each other.     16  . It is reported that American parents today spend about 40 percent less time with their children than parents did a generation ago. To keep your family time creative and enjoyable, below is a list of helpful family time tips.

1. Eat together & listen to each other

Most children today don’t know the meaning of a family dinnertime. Yet the communication and unity built during this time is necessary to a healthy family life. Sharing a meal together allows parents and their children the opportunity to talk about each other’s lives.     17     .

Choose a fun activity that your children are interested in. Activities like cooking, fishing or biking can be their great hobbies.     19     . Once a child learns a new skill, let him or her take the lead under your direction.

4. Plan a family outing

20   . Jump into the family car and go for a drive. Prepare a picnic lunch and visit a local park. Take time to play or ride a bike.

阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容(一个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。

Recently, I failed an exam. However, after I came out of my teacher’s office, I told myself “smile! It’s not so serious.”

I smiled a big smile and   41    worked a little, really.

Everyone gets frustrated sometimes. I used to be always influenced by pressure and I was often in low spirits. But one day I came  42   a sentence in the Bible: “Do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Let the day’s own trouble be sufficient for the day.” It suddenly   43      (strike)me, “  44   (worry) about a problem doesn’t help. Why not just give a big smile and face up to the trouble?”

Now every time I want to cry, I remind myself that   45    (laugh) is better than tears and anger. I am  ¬¬¬  46     (convince) that there’ something magical about a smile. A smile helps me recover confidence and gives me   47  courage to move on.

Remember, whenever you’re faced with a setback (挫折), whenever you’ve been   48    (fair) treated,  49    it takes is determination and you can feel happy again. Smile at life,   50   it will shine on you.

As the college entrance examination is approaching, it won’t take long after I graduate. Now, I have much to share with my fellow student.

Firstly, I’d like to show my appreciation to those standing by me all the way, teachers, parents and friends including. Without their help and advice, my life will be different. Secondly, it’s high time for I to say sorry to the classmates who I hurt or mi sunderstand. I firm believe that communication and smiles act bridges to friendship. Thirdly, I’ve made up my mind to make every effort to study, as hard work is the key to a success. Finally I want to express my hope which all the younger fellows can make full use of time, because time and tide wait for no man.
