Reading Writing Skills
Reading comprehension questions, if well designed
and properly used, are not only effective in
checking out how well a student understands a
text, but can also lead students to a better
understanding of the text as a whole. 2) Writing
skill An example is a specific instance that is
used to support or explain a more general
statement. In text A, the author gives a number
of examples which help to clarify the readers
understanding of what gratitude is and which add
persuasive force to the authors thesis that
gratitude is important.

The Gratitude We Need A.J.Cron
in 1 On a fine afternoon in New York, I got into
a taxi. From the drivers expression and the way
he slammed in his gears, I could tell that he was
upset. I asked him what was the trouble. Ive
got good reason to be sore, he growled. One of
my fares left a wallet in my cab this morning.
Nearly three hundred bucks in it. I spent more
than an hour trying to trace the guy. Finally I
found him at his hotel. He took the wallet
without a word and glared at me as though Id
meant to steal it.

Language Points
2 He didn't give you a reward? I exclaimed.
3 Not a cent. But it wasnt the dough I
wanted... he fumbled, then exploded, If the guy
had only said something... 4 Because his
helpful, honest act had not been appreciated,
that cabdrivers day was poisoned, and I knew he
would think twice before rendering a similar
service. The need for gratitude is something we
all feel, and denial of it can do much to harm
the spirit of kindness and cooperation.

5 During World War II a mother in Cincinnati
received a letter from her son in the army in
which he spoke of a woman in a village in
Normandy who had taken him into her home when he
was wounded and hungry, and hidden him from the
Germans. Later on, unhappily, the boy was killed
in the Ardennes offensive. Yet the mother was
moved by an irresistible intention. She saved up
for two years, crossed the Atlantic and located
the village referred to by her son. After many
inquiries, she found the woman who had sheltered
her

son the wife of an impoverished farmer and
pressed a package into her hand. It was the gold
wristwatch her son had received on his
graduation, the only object of real value the boy
had ever possessed. The mothers act of gratitude
so touched peoples hearts that it has become
something of a legend in and around the village.
It has done more than fine speeches to foster
good feeling toward Americans.
12
Language Points
6 Gratitude is the art of receiving gracefully,
of showing appreciation for every kindness, great
and small. Most of us do not fail to show our
pleasure when we receive hospitality, gifts and
obvious benefits, but even here we can perfect
our manner of showing gratitude by making it as
personal and sincere as possible. Recently, when
touring in southern Italy with my wife,
13
Language Points
I sent to a friend in Connecticut several bottles
of a local wine which had taken our fancy. It was
a trifling gift, yet to our surprise, instead of
the conventional letter of thanks, we receive a
phonograph record. When we played it, we heard
our friends voice speaking after dinner,
describing how he and his guests had enjoyed the
wine and thanking us for our thoughtfulness. It
was pleasant to have this unusual proof that our
gift had been appreciated.
14
Language Points
7 Gratitude is sometimes more than a personal
affair. My son, studying medicine at McGill
University, told me of a patient brought into
hospital in Montreal whose life was saved by a
blood transfusion. When he was well again he
asked Isnt there any way I can discover the
name of the donor and thank him? He was told
that names of donors are never revealed. A few
weeks after his discharge he came back to give a
pint of his own blood. Since then he has returned
again and again for the same purpose. When a
surgeon commented on this splendid record of
anonymous service, he answered simply Someone I
never knew did it for me. Im just saying
thanks .
15
Language Points
8 It is a comforting thought that gratitude can
be not merely a passing sentiment but a renewal
which can, in some instances, persist for a
lifetime. A husband who recalls appreciatively
some generous or unselfish act on his wifes
part, or a wife who never forgets the gifts her
husband has given her, does much to keep the
domestic wheels spinning smoothly. W.H. Hudson,
British author and naturalist, has written One
evening I brought home a friend to share our
usual evening meal. Afterward he said to me You
are fortunate to have a wife who, despite ill
health and children to look after, cooks such
excellent meals. That tribute opened my eyes and
taught me to show gratitude for my wifes
day-to-day heroism, which I had hitherto taken
for granted.
16
Language Points
9 It is, above all, in the little things that the
grace of gratitude should be most employed. The
boy who delivers our paper, the milkman, the
mailman, the barber, the waitress at a
restaurant, the elevator operator all oblige us
in one way or another. By showing our gratitude
we make routine relationships human and render
monotonous tasks more agreeable.
17
Language Points
10 A patient of mine in London who worked as a
bus conductor once confided to me, I get fed up
with my job sometimes. People grumble, bother
you, havent got the right change for their
tickets. But theres one lady on my bus morning
and evening, and she always thanks me in a
particularly friendly way when I take her ticket.
I like to think shes speaking for all the
passengers. It helps me to keep smiling.
18
Language Points
11 Arnold Bennett had a publisher who boasted
about the extraordinary efficiency of his
secretary. One day Bennett said to her, Your
employer claims that you are extremely efficient.
What is your secret? Its not my secret, the
secretary replied. Its his. Each time she
performed a service, no matter how small, he
never failed to acknowledge it. Because of that
she took infinite pains with her work. 12 Some
persons refrain from expressing their gratitude
because they feel it will not be welcome. A
patient of mine, a few weeks after his discharge
from the hospital, came back to thank his nurse.
I didnt come back sooner, he explained,
because I imagined you must be bored to death
with people thanking you.
19
Language Points
13 On the contrary, she replied, I am
delighted you came. Few realize how much we need
encouragement and how much we are helped by those
who give it. 14 Gratitude is something of which
none of us can give too much. For on the smiles,
the thanks we give, our little gestures of
appreciation, our neighbors build up their
philosophy of life.
