Reading Comprehension – What are you grateful for?

Happy Thanksgiving North America!

If you are celebrating Thanksgiving today, then we hope you have a fantastic feast with family and friends, surrounded by those you love and enjoying a delicious meal.

If you are not, then we hope you also join us to share what you are grateful for this week.

Remember last Thursday? We spoke about gratitude and what we appreciate in our lives.

It’s time to do it again: please tell us on our Facebook page what you are grateful for!

And, as we did in the previous week, here’s a dose of inspiration to get you started:

“Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough and more! It turns denial into acceptance, chaos into clarity, problems into gifts, failures into success, the unexpected into perfect timing and mistakes into important events. Gratitude makes sense of our past… brings peace for today and creates a vision for tomorrow”.

Vocabulary

Unlock – to open the lock on (something).

Fullness – not lacking anything : complete in number, amount, etc.

Denial – a statement saying that something is not true or real : a statement in which someone denies something.

Gift – something that is given to another person.

Timing – the time when something happens or is done especially when it is thought of as having a good or bad effect on the result.
