Dear Abby,
I’m a helpless mother. My son Tom is 15 years old. I find that the older he grows,
the less we talk. I feel very sad and I really need help.
My first problem is about his hobbies. He spends almost all his spare time on
computer games. When he gets home, he always turns on the computer and closes the
door. I’m getting worried about him, especially when his English teacher tells me
he always gets low marks in the English exams.
Second, he likes new technology, but I don’t have enough money and I can’t afford
all the things he wants.
Recently, I’ve found that he is always alone. I’ve never seen him talking to
his friends on the phone or going out with anyone on weekends. That is the best problem
I have.

五.任务型阅读。(共 5 小题,每小题 2 分,计 10 分)
“I don’t like my parents. They always tell me I should do this, and should
not do that. It sometimes makes me angry,” said Zhang Hua, a middle school student
in Guangzhou. Do you have the same problem? Perhaps your parents had the same problem
when they were young. Why aren’t some parents so friendly in their children’s eyes?
One of the most important reasons is when someone becomes a parent, he/she often
worries about things. They worry about everything about you, from the time you were
born (出生). They do a lot for you. Though something would make you angry, they care
about you and worry about you. They worry about your choice (选择) of friends, the 4
food you eat, your study at school, how much sleep you get and so on. All these things
are part of your life. They want you to grow up healthily and happily.
So how can you make things easier on yourself? It’s easier than you think.
Just make sure your parents know what you’re doing. Get them to know your friends.
Phone them if you get home later than usual. Say sorry to them when you make mistakes.
Talk about your ideas with them and they may talk about theirs with you.
Most of all, try to think about why your parents do this or do that. They are
still practicing being parents and need help you can give them. When you become a
parent, they may be able to help you how to get on with your children.

How to solve our stress
We all have some problems and stress in our lives. How should we solve them?
Firstly, we should take more exercise. Sports can help us to have a healthy body
and study better. Secondly, we need to talk with our teachers, parents and friends,
try to tell them our trouble. They may give us some useful advice. Thirdly, we can
also listen to music and read books. They are good ways to relax ourselves. Fourthly,
we should try our best to study hard and learn to face our grades bravely. Last,
if we have too much stress, we’d better see a doctor.
