【小题1】 Some days later, Roy took his paintings to his mum.

“Tell me, Roy. 【小题2】”

“The first is about how some kids showed off their new clothes. 【小题3】 He always tells me about how I’m doing things wrong. And the last painting is about my father. He often takes away my toys.”

Roy’s mum said, “Don’t you see, Roy? All the people you were angry with did nothing wrong.” Then she explained (解释) carefully, “The kids were showing off their new clothes but never laughed at yours. Your teacher did that because you caused trouble in class. 【小题4】”

“Next time you get angry, walk away for a few minutes. And when you come back talk to the person you’re angry with. You might calm down in this way.”
