Hi Cindy,

Please don’t worry if you feel a little strange around boys.You are in the process of  1

from a little girl into a young woman and there are 2 called hormones(荷尔蒙)that are changing not only your body but your 3 .For example, you say you used to feel at ease 4 boys and you would usually run and fight one another for 5 .That was Cindy, the little girl, Cindy the 6 woman doesn’t want to fight boys or even run with them 7 your interests are changing.That is what is making you feel strange and it is also 8 to the other girls around you and also to the boys.Your life is 9 a different stage but you should understand that this is (a) 10 normal, and(b) something that will pass quickly.

I think you should again try to 11 around boys.You can still talk with them about 12 your like including sports, movies, web sites and celebrities (名人).I 13 that you not try to fight with them, however, because the 14 are becoming much bigger and stronger.I think you will find that you will 15 being with boys but that your feelings will be different from the 16 they used to be.I know you are not supposed to have a 17 while you are still in school in China, but if you start to find some boys very handsome and you are strongly 18 to some of them, don’t be surprised, 19 , this is all very normal.For now, you should 20 your school work, though you will find that some boys are attracted to you.This will be a new adventure for you and my best advice is to relax and enjoy it.

Good luck,

                                    Brad

A long car journey can be a nightmare(噩梦) for everyone,whether they are adults or children,passengers or drivers.The driver at least has something that he or she needs to concentrate on but for the other occupants of the car, the journey can be boring, uncomfortable, and can make you feel sick. Moreover, passengers who suffer during car journeys can cause stress and anxiety to the driver, who may therefore lose concentration and cause an accident.

  With this problem in mind, doctors and child psychiatrists have recommended a series of things to do and not do to make these journeys less stressful.

  ◆Surveys suggest that a major cause of arguments on car journeys is    , and evidence shows that drivers operate better if they are listening to something of their own choice. This means that, especially when different generations are traveling, everyone except the driver who wants to listen to music should be equipped with their own source of music or radio.

  ◆By far the most successful strategy, especially if there are children in the car,is to turn the journey into a fun task of some kind. For example, children can be issued with an illustrated worksheet, offering them the chance to tick off things that they see—a blue motorway road sign,for example,or a particular kind of tree.

  ◆It is of course important to have sufficient provisions(储备物) for the trip,with water on the top of the list. However, doctors are now warning parents against giving their children fast food items and fizzy(起泡的) drinks,the kind of things that cause hyperactivity and can create tension and problems.
