Valentine’s Day(情人节) was coming. Helen felt hurt and lonely because this was her first Valentine’s Day after the divorce (离婚).

Helen’s twelve-year-old son, Jack, looked at his mother, knowing that this was a difficult time for both of them. In order to make his mother happy, he prepared a present, and handed it to her on Valentine’s Day.

It was a beautiful gift package (纸盒). Helen couldn’t believe what was happening. She opened it and took out a lovely card and a small box.

“Now,” he said, “read the card.” It reads as follows:

“I know that this isn’t easy for you because it has been a hard year for both of us. I know that Valentine’s Day is a special day for people in love. I want you to know that I love you. I know that Valentines are supposed to get chocolate. I went to the store today to buy some for you. Luckily, I got the last piece. I told the clerk it was just perfect.”

Helen stood there for a moment and looked at her son. Her eyes sparkled in the light as tears formed in each corner. Jack knew he had done the right thing. Slowly she opened the small box, careful not to tear the paper. She would never forget the moment. She found a chocolate heart that was broken into pieces along with a note:

“I am so sorry that Dad left us, Mom. And all you were left with was a broken heart. But I just want you to know we still have each other.

Happy Valentine’s Day!

Your son,

Jack”

When you sleep somewhere else—like at summer camp or a friend's house—you know you're in for a fun time. It can be exciting to get away from the same old bed in the same old room in the same old house. But fun as this is, for some kids being away from home can be scary and sad. They want to go and have fun with their friends, but once they're there, they start to miss their good old bed, their good old parents, and all that everyday stuff at home. It's called being homesick.

Homesick means you're upset, sad, and maybe scared. But don't feel surprised. A lot of people get homesick, even grown­ups. When you're used to having certain people and things around you, it can be scary when they're gone. When you're dealing with other problems, you will feel homesick, too. Some kids may feel more homesick than usual if their parents are getting divorced or if someone they loved has recently died.

Here are some ideas to help you feel less homesick.

Bring a little bit of home with you. If you're going away from home, bring your pillow or pictures of the people you'll be apart from and look at them any time you want.

Keep busy. The more fun stuff you do, the less time you'll have to feel homesick. Try to join in activities wherever you are.

Stay in touch. You can make a plan for when you'll call your mom or dad. You can also e­mail or text message to stay in touch with family and friends. When you do get in touch with someone, make sure to talk about the fun things you're doing!

Talk to someone where you are. Maybe you can tell a friend that you feel homesick. He or she might have some ideas to help you feel better.

26.One feels homesick means he's not ________.

A.upset      B.sad         C.scary       D.full

27. ________ is NOT TRUE according to the passage.

A.Kids can keep touching with their family with telephone

B.You can tell friends you are feeling homesick

C.Bringing some familiar things with you can help to feel less homesick

D.Only kids get homesick, grown­ups never feel homesick
