A

Adults understand what it feels like to be floodedwith objects. Why do we often assume that more_is_morewhen it comes to kids and their belongings? The good news is that I can help myown kids learn earlier than I did how to live more with less.

I found the pre­holidays a good time to encourageyoung children to donate less­used things, and it worked. Because of ourefforts, our daughterGeorgiadid decide to donate a large bag of toys to a little girl whose mother wasunable to pay for her holiday due to illness. She chose to sell a few largeobjects that were less often used when we promised to put the money into herschool fund (基金)(our kindergarten is serious about becoming a doctor).

For weeks, I've been thinking of bigger, deeperquestions. How do we make it a habit for them? And how do we train ourselves tohelp them live with, need and use less? Yesterday, I sat with my son, Shepherd,determined to test my own theory on this. I decided to play with him with onlyone toy for as long as it would keep his interest. I expected that one toywould keep his attention for about five minutes, ten minutes max. I chose a redrubber ball — simple, universally available. We passed it, he tried to put itin his mouth, he tried bouncing it, rolling it, sitting on it, throwing it. Itwas totally, completely enough for him. Before I knew it an hour had passed andit was time to move on to lunch.

We both became absorbed in the simplicity of playingtogether. He had my full attention and I had his. My little experiment to findjoy in a single object worked for both of us.

A．The more, the better.

B．Enough is enough.

C．More money, more worries.

D．Earn more and spend more.

答案与解析：A　通过“why do we oftenassume”这样的表达知道作者并不支持“more is more”观点，而是支持“live more with less”，有的更少，活得更精彩。所以“more is more”与“live more with less”形成对比，便是指“越多越好”的意思。

A．To try out an idea.

B．To show a parent's love.

4．What can be a suitable title for the text?

A．Take It or Leave It
