Hundreds of years ago there lived a king in a small country. He liked swimming. When summer came, he always went to another palace by a forest with his guards and returned to the capital in autumn.
One afternoon the king went swimming in a river in the forest but he didn’t tell others about it. He was very happy when he swam in the water.    After that he heard a great noise and saw a big bear coming at him. He tried his best to run away. He ran and ran and at last he lost his way. He was hungry and tired when he found an old house. There was an old farmer in it.“It’s your king,” he said to the old man.“I’m hungry now. Bring me something to eat quickly!”
The old man had nothing dear. He only had four eggs. The king ate them and felt better.“How much must I pay you for that?”
“Eighteen pounds.”        
“How dear they are! Are eggs rare（稀有的）here?”

Bend over, take a deep breath and drink some water！This is just one of hundreds of pieces of advice you might get if you have the hiccups（打嗝）.Hiccups are so mysterious(神秘的)．We really don’t know why they start and why they stop．

Everyone has a favorite cure for a case of the hiccups．Some people think that a good scare is necessary to get well．Others eat a little sugar．Still others drink a glass of water with a knife in it．

An American man named Jack O’Leary said that he had hiccupped 160 million times over a period of eight years．He tried 60，000 cures，but none of them worked．Finally he prayed（向…祈祷） to Saint Jude, the saint of Hopeless cases, and his hiccupping stopped immediately．

A British worker didn’t stop his hiccups until eight months later. People from all over the world wrote him letters with suggestions for getting well．He tried them all，but the hiccups continued．Finally，he drank a “secret” mixture(混合物) someone had sent him. By that evening his hiccups were gone．

Why did these cures work for these two men? No one really knows. But people who have studied many cases of hiccups have an idea. Hiccups usually go away if you believe in the cure．

1.        might be the best cure for hiccups.

A．Special pills

B．A spoonful of salt

C．Cold water

D．What you believe in

Dear Annie,

I have never written a letter to a newspaper before, I have just never felt the need to do such a thing. I have always felt I was quite able to do everything by myself. But now I know I was wrong.

Sometimes you really need help in life, I guess. And that’s why I’m writing this letter to you.

I have a happy family. I love my children and they love me . I’m a mother of three children. I know well how to bring up (带大)children, and two of them are already over twenty, so it is nothing new for me.

But now I have a serious problem: the Internet problem. My little son is just sixteen, and I feel he should do a lot of homework now , but he doesn’t seem to be interested in it . He can happily spend six or eight hours at a time on the Internet every day , He chats with people that he has never met before , but speaks little to us .He does lots of useless things on the Internet. And he sees red if you ask him to do his homework.

I just want him to be a good student . Now he seldom does his lessons at home. I’m afraid he will drop behind in his class soon. His father is a doctor , a very kind man . He never seems to be afraid of his father.

What can I do ?And don’t tell to talk to him. We’ve tried that and it didn’t work. But this is really a big problem in our family. I have tried everything I can think of . I

wonder how the Internet is so attractive(有吸引力的).You’re my last hope. Please tell me what I can do!

Yours,

Ellen Smith
