Dear Editor (编辑),
My brother and I argue (争吵) all the time. It seems that we will argue forever because I don't know how to stop it. What should I do?
Cindy
Dear Cindy,
Next time you feel a fight coming, try your best to stop it. Say to yourself: I am not fighting with him. Then think about a better way to solve the problem. Remember if you don't fight with him, he can't fight with you.
Editor
Dear Editor,
I have a friend who hugs me too much. I've tried to stop him, but he just doesn't listen.
John
Dear John,
Some people are more “huggy” than others, and your friend is one of those people. Try to tell him that you don't want to hug so often. I'm sure he will understand you if you are really good friends.
Editor
Dear Editor,
When I get home from school, I am all alone. My parents don't know, but I'm sad. Should I tell them?
Rose
Dear Rose,
You should tell your parents how you feel. Talk with them about how to solve the problem. Whatever you do, don't keep your feelings to yourself.
Editor
Dear Editor,
When my friends are talking, I always listen. But when I try to talk, no one listens
11
to me.
Jason
Dear Jason,
Your friends probably aren't ignoring (忽视) you — they just don't notice that you want to say something. Make it easy for them by saying something funny or unusual at first. When they notice that you always say something interesting, they will start to listen to you.
Editor

My name is Kevin. My friends and I went to Amsterdam last summer for a week. We finished our holiday jobs, and we thought we should have a break. We went there by plane.
None of us knew the place, so it was a bit of an adventure (冒险). And we got completely lost one day. My friend Dave almost fell into a river when we were crossing a bridge. But we finally found the Van Gogh Museum, and we had to wait for two hours there. There were so many people there! While we were waiting there, I met an old friend from school. The world's a small place!
We stayed in a travellers' hotel, and met some friendly Italians. The hotel was cheap and clean, and we had to be very tidy. For food, we usually ate in fast food restaurants. But on my birthday, we had a special big meal at an Indonesian restaurant.
It's easy to get around the city. A lot of tourists like to rent (租用) bikes, but while we were there, we went by bus. We got our tickets from a machine, not from the driver. When we were going to the Vondelpark on Friday, two boys didn't buy any tickets, and an inspector caught them. They explained that they were foreigners, but the man didn't accept that.

Many students think that memorising (记忆) is the worst part of preparing for a test. (41)________ If you've taken clear notes and joined class discussions (讨论), you've been doing some memory work.
The following advice can be very helpful to you.
(42)________ Memorise what you need to know little by little and do it no more than fifteen minutes each time a few days before a test. It will help you feel relaxed when you try to memorise something. And remember to start the memory work when your mind is fresh.
Try to understand what you want to memorise. (43)________ If you can't understand your teacher's explanation, try to get someone to explain the information in a new way. Or you can rewrite the information in an easier way to help you understand it.
Write down or speak out loud what you want to memorise. (44)________ Also, if you have many things to memorise, memorise the first one, then the second. Repeat those two ones, and then add (添加) the third one.
(45)________ Use a phone to record what you have memorised, and then check it against the textbook. If possible, invite someone to be your listener and help you find out if there is something wrong.
