Have you ever had a problem (问题) that has left you wondering where to ask for help?

Eve Hobsbawm is a life counselor (顾问). She offers advice to people with all kinds of problems. She does this through a website inviting people to email her. There’s nothing unusual about that... except that Eve is only eight years old. Eve lives in London with her parents. She charges (收费) between 10p for advice on little worries and £1 for bigger problems. Her areas of counseling are: “Problems about love and life”.  

But Eve can’t always help. She can’t answer questions like “Does space ever end?” and she won’t help to do “schoolwork questions (especially not math)”.

She explained to the Guardian newspaper that she got the idea to set up the company from her father. Eve said, “As soon as I saw his business and understood the kinds of things businesses do, I thought that’s what I’m going to do.” But since setting up her company she received too many messages every day. “There has been a lot of sudden interest in my website,” she says, “but what troubles me is I need to do my homework too.”

43. How old is Eve?

A. 8.                             B. 10.                         C. 17.                          D. 20.

44. What does Eve do?

A. She sells things on a website.                  B. She helps others with homework.

C. She offers advice to people.                           D. She works in her father’s company.

45. What’s Eve’s problem?

A. Nobody asks her for advice.                          B. Her parents don’t like her business.

C. She can’t send messages by herself.               D. She also has homework to do.

Hi, Louis!
I’m writing to tell you something about the customs(风俗) and festivals.
Everyone loves holidays since one doesn’t need to go to school or work. Although all holidays mean no school and work, but not all of them are the same. On some of them you go out with friends; on others you stay home to eat, talk, and have fun with your family. For example in the USA, everyone thinks New Year’s Eve and New Year are both for playing with friends. Christmas is the time to stay home and exchange gifts with family members. The opposite (相反) is true in Japan though. For example, in Japan, New Year is for spending time with the family to eat, talk, have fun, and go to the temples. But Christmas is for boy and girl friends to go out and exchange gifts. Originally Christmas should be to celebrate(庆祝) the birth of Christ.
I have been interested in foreign customs since I was little. If you learn these different holiday customs, you will learn about different histories and cultures. This is much more interesting than learning them at the library from morning to evening.
