(二)情态动词should, could表建议的用法
1. should意为“应该”,常用于表示“要求”“劝告”“建议”。shouldn't为should的否定形式,意为“不应该,不要”。
2. “should+动词原形”表示“应该/应当做某事”。
3. should可用来提出建议,表示轻微的批评或遗憾,但could语气更委婉、客气。should意为“应当,应该”;could意为“可以,可能”。
4. 当征求别人意见时,常用should。
could表示“能,能够”。常用于礼貌地向别人请求准许,语气比may, can委婉很多;也用于委婉地建议别人去做某事,此时语气比should轻

Dear Jim,
I’m sorry to hear that you have some problems. It’s normal for teenagers to have such problems. Take it easy, and deal with them correctly. You said you argued with your parents. I really don’t agree with you. I think your parents are right. It’s bad for your study and health to surf the Internet until late at night.
In my opinion, study is the most important to a student. Firstly, I think you should say sorry to your parents, because what they did is good for you. Secondly, why don’t you sit down and talk to each other You could tell them you’ll work hard, and you can use the Internet only on weekends. Also, you could do some other things in your free time, like reading books.
I hope things will work out.
Yours truly,
Jack

二、阅读
Many kids help parents to do chores in the house. They may take out the trash, walk the dog or clean the floor. In return, some kids get money or other rewards from their parents, such as 20 minutes to play computer games.
But some people do not think that kids should get rewards for doing chores. One of them is Jane Smith, a parenting educator and family coach(指导). She believes if kids get rewards, they may think that work isn’t worth(值得)doing unless you get something in return. For example, kids won’t clean the floor if they see it is dirty. But they will do it if their parents reward them for it.
“Every house is a team effort(努力),” Jane said. “A home is a living place for everyone in the family. It’s important for kids to see that we all have a responsibility(责任)to keep our home clean.”
Other people have different ideas. They believe that money or other rewards encourage kids to do more chores. It also teaches them real world lessons. They can learn about how we need to work to make money.
Now, there are also apps that encourage kids to do chores. The apps give kids points and digital(电子的)gifts that can be used either online or in life. With the Chore Monster, kids get digital points after they do chores. Kids can exchange(交换)their points for real rewards, such as time to play video games or a trip to the shop.” Our goal is to encourage kids to do chores so they can get rewards, “ says Joe Black, the founder(创始人)of Chore Monster.” Kids need positive(积极的)power to make them do chores.”
1.The word “rewards” in paragraph 1 means ________.
A.reasons B.prizes C.shows D.excuses
2.Jane Smith thinks that ________.
A.housework isn’t worth doing B.parents should do chores at home
C.kids should get something in return D.kids shouldn’t get rewards for doing chores
3.What’s the purpose of the apps mentioned in the passage
A.To encourage kids to do chores. B.To let kids play more video games.
C.To give kids digital points and gifts. D.To make kids keep their home clean.
