A letter to Edward, a columnist(报刊专栏作家)
Dear Mr Expert:
I grew up in an unhappy and abusive home. I always Promised myself that I’d get out as soon as possible. Now, at age 20,I have a good job and a nice house, and I’m really proud of the independence I’ve achieved.
Here’s the problem: several of my friends who still live with their parents wish they had places like mine ― so much so that they make mine theirs.
It started out with a couple of them spending the weekends with me. But now they seem to take it for granted that they can shou up any time they like. They bring boyfriends over, talk on the phone and stay out forever.
I enjoy having my friends here sometimes― it makes the place feel comfortable and warm― but this is my home, not a party house. I was old enough to move out on my own, so why can’t I seem to ask my friends to respect my privacy(隐私)?
Joan
Edward’s reply to Joan
Dear Joan:
If your family didn’t pay attention to your needs when you were a child, you probably have trouble letting others know your needs now.
And if you’ve gathesed yourfriends around you to rebuild a happy family atmosphere(气氛),you may fear that saying no will bring back the kind of conflict you grew up with― or destroy the nice atmosphere you now enjoy. You need to understand that in true friendship it’s okay to put your own needs first from time to time.
Be clear about the message you want to send. For example, “I really love your company but I also need some privacy. So please call before you come over.”

查看习题详情和答案>>Faye Wong
Faye Wong(Wang Fei) is set to finally release her long-awaited new Mandarin album(国语 专辑).
“Future Love” is Wong's debut(首次演出) album for Sony, and is set to launch a spectacular(惊人的) attack on the charts by the Beijing-born star.
Wong could not have picked a better time to release her new record. She won the title of Asia's best female singer at the CCTV-MTV awards—in spite of not having had a new record for two years.
Born in Beijing, Wong moved to Hong Kong at the age of 18 and released her first album, the gold-selling “Wang Jingwen” the following year.
“Coming Home” though, was the album that shot her to stardom(明星地位)—several of its songs becoming big hits, notably(著名的) “Fragile Woman”(Rong Yi Shou Shang de Nü Ren).
Wong's charm lies not only in her artistic talent(艺术家的才能), but in her in-and-cool style. “She is just too different—her voice, her manner of dressing and her persistence(坚持) in her own way of life, ”says Xiao Liao, one of Wong's fans, “she is now more a pop-culture idol(偶像) than a talented singer. ”
Wong is indeed a unique(独特的), down-to-earth(朴实的) idol. “I’m lazy and I smoke, ”she says, “I’m a straightforward(坦率) person and often offend(冒犯) people. I throw my temper around. I’m not motivated(有积极性的), and I’m always thinking of holidays. I’m not an idol, so please don’t treat me as one!”
