　　Getting into the habit of giving and receiving helps build good relationships（关系）.
　　It makes us feel more care. It stops Stress （压力）from building because we know someone else is thinking about us. And if there is a problem, we’re sharing it before it gets too big. It just feels great to help.
　　Try these small things at home, and see how they make you feel：
（1）Help your little brother or sister with a homework problem.
（2）Help your mom prepare dinner.

　　There is more to it than just feeling good： kindness is contagious（有感染力的）.It can create more kindness, so you might start to notice your friends reaching out to help more.
　　Just don't fail into the trap（陷阱）of expectation. If we help out only because we expect other persons to do something in return（回报）, we will probably end up feeling disappointed and angry instead of feeling satisfied and happy. So decide to help simply because of helpful feelings it creates. Then, when someone else does something nice for you, it is a wonderful surprise.
