7.(10分) Few people today educate the children about the value of empathy (同情;同感).Most people feel so hard(2) to show (show)their love and care towards others and to actually understand what they are going through.
When I was a child,I(2) was taught (teach)to go out of my way to make someone else happy.
My mum would tell me to say at(3) least (little)one kind word to someone else every day.I admit that(4) it wasn't very easy to do.But as soon as you see the look of thanks in that person's eyes,you just want to do as much as you can.

【分析】本文主要讲述了我每天对别人说一句友善的话,让别人高兴,也让自己快乐。
【解答】(1)考查动词不定式。句意:大多数人都觉得很难表现出他们对他人的爱和关心,并真正理解他们正在经历的事情。根据and to actually understand what they are going through(并真正理解他们正在经历的事情)可知,大多数人都觉得很难表现出他们对他人的爱和关心,并真正理解他们正在经历的事情。并列连词and连接两个动词不定式,所以要用动词不定式来填空。故填:to show。
(2)考查动词时态语态。句意:当我还是个孩子的时候,我被教导了尽力让别人开心。主体时态是一般过去时,对于我来说是被动的,所以要用一般过去时的被动语态来填空。故填:was taught。
(3)考查副词。句意:我妈妈会告诉我每天至少对别人说一句友善的话。根据at(在...)at least固定短语,至少。可知,我妈妈会告诉我每天至少对别人说一句友善的话。故填:least。
(4)考查代词。句意:我承认这不是很容易做到的。根据上文My mum would tell me to say at(3)_____(little)one kind word to someone else every day.(我妈妈会告诉我每天至少对别人说一句友善的话。)可知,我承认这不是很容易做到的。it指的是前面句子的内容。故填:it。
(5)考查冠词。句意:我有和一个年轻人相处过的经历,人们总是取笑他。根据experience(经历)experience 是以元音音素开头的单词,所以要用an来填空。故填:an。
(6)考查名词。句意:我确实很喜欢让他的生活产生了重大的影响的事实。根据making a(制作一个)make a difference in固定短语,对 产生影响。故填:difference。
(7)考查名词。句意:今天我们还是很好的朋友。句子的主语是we(我们),所以要用复数名词来填空。故填:friends。
(8)考查连词。句意:我为朋友所做的一切都很容易,同时我也很开心。通过分析句子结构,前后句子是两个并列的句子,所以要用并列连词and来填空。故填:and。
(9)考查副词。句意:我希望每个人每天至少一次能对别人说一句好话。根据上文My mum would tell me to say at(3)_____(little)one kind word to someone else every day.(我妈妈会告诉我每天至少对别人说一句友善的话。)可知,我希望每个人每天至少一次能对别人说一句好话。故填:once。
(10)考查名词所有格。句意:一句善意的话可以使某人的一天更明亮。空格后面的词语是名词,所以要用名词所有格来填空。故填:someone's。
