19、 阅读下面材料,从方框中所给的A—E五个选项中选出正确选项(其中一项为多余选项),将其序号填入小题,并回答问题。
Express Your Thanks
You probably say"thank you" often— such as when a friend holds the door, or a grandparent sends a gift for your birthday. Showing thanks not only makes others feel good, but also helps you feel more joyful and less sad or stressed, according to experts at Harvard University. It is also something you can practice. Here's how.
Take a few minutes to find out what you're thankful for. Is it someone or something that makes you happy or makes you laugh? Is it someone you know— like a parent or teacher— who helps you? Is it something that makes your life better? Maybe it's an activity or a hobby you enjoy. It can also be something you have that you realize others may not have.
Try to write the things you're thankful for on sticky notes every day. Make a"thanks wall" in your room so that you can read them often. Whenever you feel upset, you can take them out to remind yourself of what makes you feel happy and thankful. Let being thankful become a part of your life.
Giving your time to others helps them— but it can also benefit you, too. For example, if you clean the yard for an elderly neighbor, you can take a moment to feel thankful that you are able to make their day easier. If you help a classmate with homework, you can feel good about sharing your knowledge.
Thanksgiving is a perfect time to exchange thanks with family. At the dinner table, each person can take a turn to share at least one thing they feel thankful for, for example, to give thanks for the company of the people in your life or the natural beauty of the outdoors.
A. Make it a habit
B. Do a" thanks search"
C. Volunteer your time
D. Start with a greeting
E. Share thanks with family
Who or what do you want to say thanks to? How do you express your thanks?(不超过20词)

20、 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
Many kids say they don't like the taste of broccoli. Now scientists think that there could be a good reason for those so-called"picky" eating habits of kids that drive mothers crazy.
When chemicals in broccoli mix with some people's saliva(唾液), they give out awful smells in the mouth. The study found that the more awful smells a child's mouth produces, the more they dislike the food.
But why do some people's mouths make more of these smells than other people's mouths? The team collected saliva samples(样本) from 98 pairs of parents and children. Every person's saliva has a microbiome(菌群) in it. The researchers believe this decides how strong the smell is when a person eats broccoli. Maybe our picky eaters are simply those who have the microbiome that increases awful smells.
The team studied the samples of the adults' and children' s saliva with broccoli. They found that people who were relatives produced almost the same amount(总量) of the smelly chemicals. Though parents and their children seemed to produce similar levels, the parents didn't mind the taste of broccoli as much as their kids did. The adults may have gotten used to it over time.
Experts believe picky eaters may come to enjoy the food they avoid if they try it enough times. Say your child hates broccoli— if you offer them broccoli enough times, in different forms, they may come to enjoy it in the end. What's more, children learn by observation. If they see you eating a balanced mix of healthy foods, they' ll be more likely to follow. However, watching you having lots of cola, snack foods, and dessert will make them wonder why they can't do the same.
