Dear Dr. Jackson,

My parents are never happy with me. They are always criticizing (批评) my clothes, my hair and the music I listen to. They hate my friends' looks and they keep complaining (抱怨) when I go with them. I'm not allowed to stay out as late as my friends do, so I can't have any fun. My parents only seem to care about my school marks. Though I love them, sometimes I feel we live in different worlds. If they love me, can't they understand me? How can I make them understand me?

Angel

Dear Angel,

Your problem is common to both teenagers and parents. Don't worry, because it is natural.

You see, your parents have grown up at a different time and they have different experiences. So they think some things are strange, but you find the same things common. For example, the music you like may sound like noise to them. Your parents love you, so they think they must protect (保护)you from whatever they find strange. On the other hand（另一方面）, you don't want to be different from other teenagers, so you feel that your parents restrict（限制） you.

I think you should talk about this problem with your parents. Try to explain to them what you want and make them know they can believe you. Sooner or later, they will find you are a responsible (有责任心的) person and they will give you more freedom (自由).

Jackson

1.Why does Angel write to Dr. Jackson?

Dear Dr. Manners,

My close friend seldom(很少)says “please”. She will say “Can you get me that bag? ”or “Move it over here! ”I have told her a lot of times that it is polite to use “please” and “thank you”, but she hardly remembers. I feel that she is ordering(命令)me around without “please”, and I always get annoyed.

We have been close friends for over 10 years, this has always been there. It seems that I can’t stand it any more. What should I do? Can you help me?

Sincerely,

Linda

Dear Linda,

When your friend does not use polite words, it seems that she is ordering you to do something. So you have every right(权利)to hate her behaviors.

Ask her why she doesn’t use “please” and “thank you”. Explain to her that it makes you uncomfortable. Also, you don’t want to do anything for her because she doesn’t seem kind or pleasant when she asks you to.

Your friend was probably never taught how to use “please” and “thank you” in normal conversation. So you can try to teach her that. Remember that it is difficult to find another close friend if you lose one.

Yours,

Dr. Manners

A poor (贫穷的) man goes to a rich (富有的) man's house. On the way, he sees a box under a tree. He opens it and sees some apples in it.

The man has to go back home. He doesn't have any food at home. He is very hungry. He thinks of the apples. He goes back to the tree. He is very happy to see them near the tree, and he eats them quickly.

When we think of paper, we think of newspapers and books. But there are many other uses. Only half of the world's paper is used for books and newspapers.

Paper is very good for keeping you warm. You have perhaps seen homeless men sleep on a large number of newspapers. In Finland, it is sometimes-40℃ in winter. The farmers wear paper boots(靴子)in the snow. Nothing could be warmer.

Each year, more and more things are made of paper. We have had paper cups and plates for a long time. But now we hear that chairs, tables, and even beds can be made of paper. Besides paper boots and shoes, you can wear paper hats, paper dresses, and paper raincoats. When you have used them once, you may throw them away and buy new ones.

The latest use of paper seems to be paper houses. These are not small houses for children to play in, but real, big houses for people to live in. You can buy a house with three rooms for about 500 dollars. You can put it up by yourself in a few hours, and you can use it for about five years.

1.Only half of the world's paper is used to _________.

A.print(印刷)newspapers and books

I'm Sara. I'm a middle school student. At school, we have nine subjects — math, English, Chinese, science, geography, history, art, P.E. and music. My mother is a Chinese teacher and she says Chinese is beautiful and important (重要的). I like Chinese. I always read Chinese books before I go to bed. I also like history. It is my favorite subject. Mr. Brown is great fun. In his history class, I can learn many interesting stories.

Mr. Green is my math teacher. He says math is useful and interesting, but I think it is boring. My science teacher, Mrs. Smith, is nice. I listen to (听) her carefully (认真的) in class. But I can't do well in the science exam(考试). I don't know why. Although it’s difficult for me, I will try my best to solve it step by step.

We always have art, P.E. or music in the afternoon. For me, the classes in the afternoon are fun and relaxing. In P.E. class, I like to play ping-pong with my P.E. teacher Mrs. Miller. She plays very well.
