Some friends invite you over and serve you a delicious dinner. Someone lends you his car while there’s something wrong with yours. You are sick, and a friend brings you a meal and cares for you. How do you show your gratitude(感謝) ?

Sometimes simply saying thank you is enough. At other times, it is thoughtful to say thank you in a more different way. Be sure to tell that person what you are grateful for and why you are grateful.

Here are some common ways to say thank you.

You can write a thank-you note. People are very busy these days. A handwritten note shows you took the time to tell someone you are grateful to him or her. Or you can call and thank the person. You would be surprised how this can make someone’s day. Another idea is to send a thank-you e- mail. This is not quite as personal, but it still shows your gratitude.

There are many other ways to say thank you. To say thank you in a creative way, you can:

★ Select some flowers from a shop. Write a thank-you note.

★ Give the person a basket of fresh fruit or a homemade treat.

★ Invite a friend to a movie, meal, snack or coffee.

★ Give a gift card for a bookstore or a restaurant. That way the person can pick out a favourite book or eat out.

★ Find out what the person likes and give something related to that.

★ To say a big thank you to someone, have a party for that person.

As you can see, there are many ways to say thank you. Think of some ways of your own. You will feel good trying one of the ideas, and the person being thanked will feel good too. It’s a win-win situation !

任務(wù)型閱讀

If you think you are too shy and want to be a little bit braver, just try the following things;

Be open to others. Tell people you are shy. There is no need to hide it.

When they get to know you are a shy kid, they will understand you better. This also helps you feel more comfortable in talks.

Try to smile more. When you smile, people think you are friendly and easy to talk with. Remember that other people have feelings, too; and most people will stay away from an angry-looking face.

Learn to be a good talker. If you find it hard to start a conversation, say something nice about people around you. Think about how great you feel when someone says something nice to you. Doesn’t it make you want to keep talking to that person?

Get your attention elsewhere. Think more about ways to enjoy parties or games. Don’t waste time worrying about your look or whether people like you or not. You will become relaxed and find it’s not so hard to talk with others.

Take one small step at a time. Each time when you say “Hi!”or smile at someone, say to yourself ”You can make it.” Keep trying and one day you’ll never feel shy when you talk to others.
