Dear Ella,

I am 13 years old. My parents prefer my brother to me. Now when I ask for something, my mum says it's foolish and useless. But whenever my brother asks for something, he gets it. When he heats me, my parents do nothing about it.

I don't have the right to have piercings and tattoos(纹身).My parents are not open-minded. I hate staying at home. My dad forces me to pray(祷告)every day, which I hate a lot! He is a very religious(宗教的)person. My mum and dad fight almost every day

And I also have to do things for Dad like bringing his food and so on. I don't study too much but my grades are satisfactory for me. But my mum always wants more. I am bored with all of them and I always think of leaving home. I cry almost every day. What can I do toimprove my life?

Alice

Dear A lice,

It sounds like you need to try to have a private talk with your parents about your feelings. I don't think that at 13 you should be getting tattoos or piercings, or that you should judge your parents' love for you by whether you get things from them. It's wrong of your parents to allow your brother to beat you.

You say that your dad is religious. Does your family attend a church? Is there a minister or some other trusted adult you can talk to? Can you talk to your school counselor about this?

Please know that leaving home is not the answer to your problems. You are young and it is a time when sometimes one can feel very depressed(沮丧的)and helpless. I really hope you will talk to an adult you believe in about these things and get better soon.

Ella

We are almost often called upon to support others in friendship. Several years ago, Donna had been feeling very depressed(沮丧的).She had just broken up with her boyfriend of two years, and she was having a very difficult time accepting the loss. She had been laid up with a knee injury(伤) for several days, and the time alone at home certainly was not helping. Her sadness was only increased by her being discouraged at herself for not being able to cheer up and stop crying all the time.

Early one morning Donna received a phone call with some terrible news: Her best friend's brother had been killed in a car accident. Donna had known this friend, Mary, and her brother nearly all her life, and the news was really surprising. However, Donna quickly pulled herself together, got in the car, and drove to her friend's house to be there with her.

Over the course of the next few days, when attending the funeral(葬礼)and receiving the hundreds of visitors, Donna was 100 percent present for Mary. She held her close while she cried her endless tears, sat by her side as the waves of sadness washed over her friend, and slept on the floor next to Mary's bed to make sure she did not wake up alone in the middle of the night. During that time she felt rarely any pain in her knee at all and none of the depression she had been experiencing.

Several weeks later, when life began to return to normal, Donna realized that the level of support she had given Mary had been far greater than any support she had offered herself during her dark time. She was able to use the support she had given her friend as a mirror for the support she had been holding back from herself. She realized that her own tears required as much care and attention from her as anyone else's, and that if she could give it to another, she must be able to give it to herself, too. 54. The underlined part \ . A. controlled herself B. dressed herself up C. gave herself up D. helped herself 55. Which of the following orders best describes what happened to Donna? a. Mary telephoned Donna.

b. Donna broke up with her boyfriend. c. Mary's brother died in a car accident. d. Donna lay in bed with a knee injury. e. Donna came to stay with Mary.

A. c-a-b-d-e B. b-d-a-c-e C. d-b-c-a-e D. b-d-c-a-e 56. From the last paragraph, we can infer(推断)that A. with Donna's help, life began to return to normal

B. Donna had given Mary much greater support than she had done herself C. Donna could get out of her dark time by supporting herself more

D. Donna paid much attention to and showed lots of care for herself during her dark time 57. What is the most suitable title for this passage?

A. Friendship B. Support C. Accident D. Experience

It was another day to jump rope. All the students were on the playground. Lynn and Mike turned the long rope in big, slow circles. The whole class hurried to get in line to wait for their turn to jump. Millie stood at the back of the line and frowned(皱眉).

Nick went first. He watched the rope and ran in at just the right time. Everyone counted. He made it all the way to 30 jumps. One after another, the kids watched the rope, ran in and jumped. Then it was Millie's turn. She watched the rope go around and around, but she didn't move. She felt like everyone was looking at her.

Millie's friends cheered, \

Millie's face turned red. At last, she gave it a try, but she failed.

The truth was that Millie had been jumping rope at home every day. With a short rope, she could jump 100 times without missing. She just didn't know how to run in and start jumping with a long rope. Since she was the only kid on her street, there was no one to help turn the long rope.

Just then, Mrs Miles, the PE teacher brought out a bunch of short jump ropes.

\see how long each one of you can jump without missing.\she said as she gave each student a short rope. \

Millie smiled for the first time ever in a PE class. As she jumped, she sang rhymes quickly to herself. After a while, Millie realized that everyone was cheering. “Go, Millie, go!\

She was the only one still jumping rope! The surprise almost made her miss a step, but she kept going. When at last she was too tired to go on, she stopped. The whole class cheered. Everyone was looking at her and smiling. Millie smiled back! 73. What class were they having?
