Question

Sometimes the toughest thing about feelings is sharing them with others．Sharing your feelings helps you whether your feelings are wonderful or terrible．Sharing also helps you to get closer to people you care about and who care about you．But how?

You can’t tell your friends what’s inside your backpack if you don’t know what’s in there yourself．Feelings are the same way．Before you can share them with anyone，you have to figure out what feelings you have．

Making a list of your feelings can help．You can do this in your mind or by writing it out or even by drawing pictures．Is something bothering you? Does it make you frustrated or terrified? Do you feel this emotion only once in a while or much of the time?

The way a person feels inside is important．If you keep feelings locked inside，it can even make you feel sick! But if you talk with someone who cares for you，you will almost always start to feel better．It doesn’t mean your problems and worries magically disappear，but at least someone else knows what’s bothering you and can help you find solutions．

Your mom and dad want to know if you have problems and what’s happening in your life．But what if a kid doesn’t want to talk with parents? Then find another trusted adult，like a relative or a teacher at schoo1．Maybe this person can help you talk with your parents about your problem or concern．

Once you know who you can talk with，you'll want to pick a time and place to talk．You can talk publicly in your family．But some kids are more private than others and they will feel shy about sharing their feelings．Then find a quiet place or write it down on a piece of paper．A kid doesn’t have to share every feeling he or she has．

【解析】试题分析：与别人分享自己的感受是有益的，但是如何与他人分享感受呢？文章讲述了与他人分享感受要做的事情、总是隐藏情感的坏处和与他人分享的好处以及如何释放自己的情感的方式等等。

1.主旨大意题。通读全文可知，本文讲述了与他人分享感受的好处；分享感受需要做的事情；封闭自己的感受的坏处以及如何与父母等成年人交流感受等等，因此推断文章主要讲述了如何分享感受。故选C。

2.推理判断题。根据第二段最后一句Before you can share them with anyone，you have to figure out what feelings you have.可知，在与他人分享感受之前，你必须知道你有什么感受。故选B。

3.推理判断题。根据第四段最后两句But if you talk with someone who cares for you, you will almost always start to feel better. It doesn’t mean your problems and worries magically disappear, but at least someone else knows what’s bothering you and can help you find solutions.可知，在与他人分享感受之后，你几乎总是会感觉更好，尽管这并不意味着你的问题和担忧奇迹般消失，但是至少别人可以帮助你。因此推断与他人分享感受之后你或许会感到如释重负。故选D。

4.推理判断题。纵观全文可知，本文主要讨论了如何与他人分享感受的问题，根据倒数第二段句子Your mom and dad want to know if you have problems and what’s happening in your life.以及Then find another trusted adult，like a relative or a teacher at school.可推断，这篇文章主要是写给孩子们的，给孩子们提出建议的。因此推断它可能节选自儿童杂志。故选C。
