You probably talk to friends more than you talk to your parents. That's natural. Still,most of us want a parents help,advice,and support at home. But talking to the parents may be difficult or terri?ble―especially when it comes to certain subjects. Here are some suggestions to make it easier.

Talk about everyday stuff―and do it every day. 

The more you do something,the easier it gets. Talking to parents about everyday stuff builds a bond that can help you discuss something more seri?ous with them later.

Find something to chat (聊天) about each day.

 Talk about how your team did at the sports meet. Share something one of your teachers said. Even small talk about what's for dinner can keep your re?lationship comfortable.

It's never too late to start.

 If your relationship with your parents makes you feel nervous,try get?ting into conversations slowly. Mention the cute thing the dog did. Talk about how well your little sister is doing in maths. Chatting with parents every day not only keeps the present relationship strong,it also can help a might-be-worse relationship get better.

When parents feel connected to your daily life,they can be there for you if something really important         .

 Some people think that as more and more people have televisions in their homes,fewer and fewer people will buy books and newspapers. Why read an article in the newspaper,when the TV news can bring you the information in a few minutes and with pictures? Why read the life story of a famous man,when a short television programme can tell you all that you want to know?

Television has not killed reading,however. Today,newspapers sell in very large numbers. And books of every kind are sold more than ever before. Books are still a cheap way to get information and enjoyment. Although some books with hard covers are expensive,many books are printed today as paperbacks (平装本) ,which are quite cheap. A paperback collection of short stories,for example? is always cheaper than an evening at the cinema or the theatre,and you can keep a book for ever and read it many times.

Books are a wonderful provider of knowledge and pleasure and some types of books should be in every home. Every home should have a good diction?ary. A good encyclopedia (百科全书) ，though ex?pensive,is useful too,because you can find informa?tion on any subject. Besides,you can have such books as history books,science textbook,cook books,and collections of stories and poems. Then from time to time you can take a book of poems off your shelves and read the thoughts and feelings of your favourite poets.

 American schools do not have separate classes for boys and girls. If boys want to cook or to sew,they can learn these things in classes that are no longer just for girls. If girls want to repair cars,they can now learn this in school. Most students like to have boys and girls on the same baseball team.

Many boys and girls dress alike in school. They were blue jeans and sport shirts. Some have long hair and some have short hair. Sometimes a boy has longer hair than a girl.

Even the language is different. Students learn to say firefighter instead of fireman,police officer instead of policeman,and letter carrier instead of mailman. A person does not need to be a man to fight a fire or to deliver the mail.

Most people think that these changes are good. They give all people an equal chance to be happy and to do what they want to do with their lives. Fathers like to tell their sons that they can grow up to be president. Today,mothers can tell the same things to their daughters.

 Dear Sigmund Friend,I am a Grade 9 student. I have 16        problem,and I do not know how to deal 17        it.

I have a lot of homework every day,and I have no choice 18        to do it. I often stay up late to complete 19      ,and then feel tired the next day.

Sometimes I want to 20        to do so much homework,but usually I just accept it. I understand that it is important to do my homework and 21        on time. However,I hardly have any spare time for my hobbies 22        playing volleyball and ping-pong. I really feel bad about that. I often doubt whether it is worth 23        so hard.

I am 24       a holiday without homework so that I can relax and have some time for my hobbies. What should I do? Can you offer me some sugges-

tions? They will be of great value to me. I hope to 25        you soon. Best wishes.
