名校课堂系列答案Dear Abby,
This is my first letter to you, al
though I have been reading your column for many years. I need an outside opinion.
I am a grandmother in my 70s and have just returned from visiting my daughter, her husband and their three dearly loved children--all under the age of 5--and I'm upset with some of their parenting ways.
For example: They lock the doors to their children's bedrooms at night because the children might 
get out of their beds and wander around the house, and we may not hear them."
If one child should get punishment, all three are punished, and if one 
child says a naughty
word, all three are given hot sauce (辣酱汁) in the mouth. I know these parents love their children very much, but are these ways of disciplining them wise? Please understand, it is not my aim to interfere (干涉).
--- Gram
Dear Gram,
Children's bedroom doors should not be locked. Should a flash fire break out, it would be a nightmare (噩梦).Punishing all the children when only one has earned the punishment is a good way to make them grow up to hate each other. Children who use "naughty" words should not be punished with hot sauce in the mouth-they should be taught the proper and acceptable word to use instead of the "naughty" word.

I’ve loved my mother’s desk since I was just tall enough to see above the top of it as Mother sat doing letters(学问). Standing by her chair, looking at the ink bottle, pens, and white paper, I decided that the act of writing must be the most wonderful thing in the world.
Years later, during her final illness, Mother kept different things for my sister and brother. “But the desk”, she said again, “is for Elizabeth.” I never saw her anger, never saw her cry. I knew she loved me; she showed it in action. But as a young girl, I wanted heart-to-heart talks between mother and daughter. They never happened. And a gulf opened between us. I was too emotional. But she lived “on the surface”.
As years passed, I had my own family. I loved my mother and thanked her for our happy family. I wrote to her in careful words and asked her to let me know in any way she chose that she did forgive（原谅）me. I posted the letter and waited for her answer. None came. My hope turned to disappointment, then little interest and, finally, peace-it seemed that nothing happened. I couldn’t be sure that the letter had even got to Mother. I only knew that I had written in, and I could stop trying to make her into someone she was not.
Now the present of her desk told me, as she’d never been able to, that she was pleased that writing was my chosen work. I cleaned the desk carefully and found some papers inside－a photo of my father and a one-page letter, folded and refolded many times. Give me an answer, my letter asks, in any way you chose. Mother, you always chose the act that speaks louder than words.

One day last month after I received my salary, I went shopping with my little son. 21 in the 22 store, I had my pocket 23 and my whole salary was gone with it. I was so angry that I almost lost 24 of myself. What could I do? We were not very rich. The money was really not a small sum for my family. It would 25 our life greatly. How could I tell my wife?
I felt very sad and even 26 for losing the money then I got home. To make up for my 27 mistake, I gathered all my strength to give our house a thorough cleaning and then prepared a wonderful meal and cooked a special dish my wife loved to 28 her.
When she came home, I 29 a smile to 30 her. She was 31 to see the neat house and delicious meal. We sat at the table and began to eat. I told my story 32 . She did not 33 .It was as if she had not heard my words.
“I’ve lost my salary,” I murmured to her again.
“I see,” she did not shout at me as I had 34 . She didn’t lose her 35 . So I was afraid she was trying hard to 36 her anger.
A moment later, my wife was still 37 and seemed to be enjoying her favourite dish. At last I could not keep asking, “I’ve lost the money. Why not shout at me?”She 38 her eyes, looking at me and said, “oh, on the contrary, I’m thinking about how to 39 you. It’s 40 who is to blame.
