My friend’s grandfather came to America from a farm in Thailand. After arriving in New York, he went into a cafeteria in Manhattan to get something to eat. He sat down at an empty table and waited for someone to take his order. Of course nobody did. Finally, a woman with a big plate full of food came up to him. She sat down opposite him and told him how a cafeteria worked. “Start out at that end,” she said, “Just go along the line and choose what you want. At the other end they’ll tell you how much you have to pay.” “I soon learned that’s how everything works in America,” the grandfather told my friend later, “Life’s a cafeteria here.

You have to get up and get it yourself.” 32．The grandfather went into a cafeteria to ________ .

A happy family life doesn’t happen by chance. It is a result from husband and wife who carefully and diligently create a home where there is love, respect, forgiveness, patience, service and selflessness. 36 The love of husband and wife makes their union last forever; the love of parents for children enables them to feel safe in the world; the love of children for parents lightens the burden that the parents bear; and the love among children reduces quarrels and fights. A couple who respect each other never blame their spouse(配偶). He or she doesn’t think much about her or his weaknesses but helps her or him overcome them. 37 Forgiveness cannot be ignored either. Conflicts often arise in a family but they can be settled right away. The one who is at fault should immediately ask for forgiveness and the other should choose to forgive. 38 39 If there is patience in the family, anger will be controlled and there will be peace and harmony. 40 Small acts of service in a f A. Live in harmony. B. Love is the greatest of all virtues. C. If there is respect, there will be encouraging words. D. If there is forgiveness, there will be no anger or misunderstanding. E.
