Section A 2d
戴夫：金，你看上去很难过。怎么了？
金：哦，昨天我发现我妹妹在翻阅我的东西。她拿了我几本新杂志和几张光盘。
戴夫：嗯?那不是很好。她把它们还给你了吗？
金：是的，但是我还是生她的气。我该怎么办？
戴夫：哦，我猜你可以叫她说声抱歉。但你为什么不忘掉这件事以便你们能再做朋友呢？尽管她不对，但它不是什么大不了的事。
金：你说得对。谢谢你的建议。
戴夫：没事。希望事情会好起来。

Section A 3a
亲爱的亨特先生：
我的问题是我不能和我的家人和睦相处。我父母之间的关系已经变得不易相处。他们经常吵架，我真的不喜欢这样。而这是他们拥有的唯一的沟通（方式）。我不知道我是否应该就这件事对他们说点什么。当他们争吵的时候，就像一大块乌云悬在我们家的上方。而且我哥哥对我也不是很好。他总是拒绝让我看我喜欢的电视节目。相反晚上无论他想看什么就看到很晚。我认为这不公平。在家里我总是觉得孤独和焦虑。这正常吗？我能做什么？
一个十三岁的受伤的孩子

亲爱的十三岁的受伤的孩子：
在你这个年龄是不容易的，有这些感受是正常的。你为什么不和你的家人谈谈这些感受呢？如果你的父母亲正遇到问题，你应该主动提出帮助。或许你可以在家里作更多的事情以便他们有更多的时间进行适当的交流。其次，你为什么不坐下来和你的哥哥沟通呢？你应该说明你不介意他总是看电视。但是，他应当让你看你喜欢的节目。我希望今后你会自己觉得好些。
罗伯特·亨特

Section B 2b
或许你应该学会放松
如今， 许多父母督促他们的孩子学习更多的技能。他们认为这有助于他们的孩子在生活中更好地竞争。然而，如此忙碌的生活会给学生造成很大的压力。
泰勒一家是一个典型的美国家庭。对于凯茜·泰勒的三个孩子来说，生活是忙碌的。“在大多数日子的放学后”，凯茜说：“我送我的两个男孩子中的一个去进行篮球练习，送我的女儿去进行足球训练。然后我得送我的另一个儿子去上钢琴课。或许我可以舍弃（放弃） 他们的几个活动，但是我相信这些活动对我孩子们的将来是重要的。我真想要他们成功”。然后，疲惫的孩子们直到晚上7点才到家。他们匆忙地吃完饭，接着就该做家庭作业了。
琳达·米勒，三个孩子的母亲，清楚所有这样的压力。“在一些家庭里，在孩子很小的时候竞争就开始了并且持续到孩子长大”，她说道。“母亲们送她们的孩子们去上各种各样的班。并且她们总是把他们和别的孩子对比。这是不理智的。我认为那是不公平的。 为什么他们不让他们的孩子成为孩子呢？人们不应该把孩子逼得那么紧。”
医生们说太多的压力对一个孩子的发育不好。艾丽斯？格林医生说所有这些活动会对孩子们造成许多压力。“孩子们也应该有时间去放松和为他们自己去思考。尽管想要成功的孩子是正常的，但是拥有快乐的孩子甚至更为重要。”
Section A 2d
Dave: You look sad, Kim. What’s wrong?
Kim: Well, I found my sister looking through my things yesterday. She took some of my new magazines and CDs.
Dave: Hmm … that’s not very nice. Did she give them back to you?
Kim: Yes, but I’m still angry with her. What should I do?
Dave: Well, I guess you could tell her to say sorry. But why don’t you forget about it so that you can be friends again? Although she’s wrong, it’s not a big deal.
Kim: You’re right. Thanks for your advice.
Dave: No problem. Hope things work out.

Section A 3a
Dear Mr. Hunt,
My problem is that I can’t get on with my family. Relations between my parents have become difficult. They fight a lot, and I really don’t like it. It’s the only communication they have. I don’t know if I should say anything to them about this. When they argue, it’s like a big, black cloud hanging over our home. Also, my elder brother is not very nice to me. He always refuses to let me watch my favorite TV show. Instead he watches whatever he wants until late at night. I don’t think this is fair. At home I always feel lonely and nervous. Is that normal? What can I do?
Sad and Thirteen

Dear Sad and Thirteen,
It’s not easy being your age, and it’s normal to have these feelings. Why don’t you talk about these feelings with your family? If your parents are having problems, you should offer to help. Maybe you could do more jobs around the house so that they have more time for proper communication. Secondly, why don’t you sit down and communicate with your brother? You should explain that you don’t mind him watching TV all the time. However, he should let you watch your favorite show. I hope things will be better for you soon.

You look tired. What’s the matter? I studied until midnight last night so I didn’t get enough sleep.
What should I do? Why don’t you forget about it? Although she’s wrong, it’s not a big deal.
What should he do? He should talk to his friend so that he can say he’s sorry.
Maybe you could go to his house.
I guess I could, but I don’t want to surprise him.


Section B 2b
Maybe You Should Learn to Relax!
These days, many parents push their children into learning more skills. They believe it helps their kids to better compete in life. However, such a busy life can place great pressure on students.
The Taylors are a typical American family. Life for Cathy Taylor’s three children is very busy. “On most days after school,” Cathy says, “I take one of my two boys to basketball practice and my daughter to football training. Then I have to take my other son to piano lessons. Maybe I could cut out a few of their activities, but I believe these activities are important for my children’s future. I really want them to be successful. ” However, the tired children don’t get home until after 7:00 p.m. They have a quick dinner, and then it’s time for homework.
Linda Miller, a mother of three, knows all about such stress. “In some families, competition starts very young and continues until the kids get older,” she says. “Mothers send their small kids to all kinds of classes. And they are always comparing them with other children. It’s crazy. I don’t think that’s fair. Why don’t they just let their kids be kids? People shouldn’t push their kids so hard.”
Doctors say too much pressure is not good for a child’s development. Dr. Alice Green says all these activities can cause a lot of stress for children. “Kids should have time to relax and think for themselves, too. Although it’s normal to want successful children, it’s even more important to have happy children.”
